I use my Townie Go! For commuting to/from work, stores, friends’ house, restaurants, even drive-thru lanes! I go everywhere from home to the parks, along the paved trails, and across town.

My trips are so much more pleasant with the pedal assist feature. I don’t get exhausted riding my bike anymore. I go farther and farther each ride, and set new goals daily. I’m discovering more areas of my community than I ever knew existed!

Got recommended by my neighbor saying with pedal assist and big capacity battery I can ride free and far, then I bought two for my dad and myself.

My dad familiarized himself with the bike quickly and could handle it better than I did. He was impressed that he could use only level 1 challenge any steep hills. Absolutely it is a good deal.
