705 Wh48V battery that lifts off to charge inside

How far you'll go on a charge

Flat ground60 to 100 miles
Rolling hills40 to 60 miles
Steep hills25 to 30 miles

Your miles depend on your weight, your assist level and how much throttle you use. Higher assist pulls more amps, so the battery drains faster.

Who the Gride GXT+ is for

People in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s still want to ride. They just want to do it in comfort, without pain. That's where a motor helps. It gets you riding farther, at a faster pace, without the pain. And it helps you feel young again. I ride with a throttle. If my foot starts hurting, it gets me home. My wife uses it when she's tired. My daughter has a disability, and with the throttle she isn't afraid to go out farther, so she gets a lot more exercise.
