I have to admit, the Gocycle G4i makes me realise how old I am. Not because I believe that the best electric bikes are purely preserve of the more mature rider (which I definitely am), but because I remember the first ever Gocycle.
Back in 2009 I was only a couple of years into my cycling journalism life, with a luscious head of still brown(ish) hair, when former motorsport designer Richard Thorpe - he'd worked for legendary Formula One manufacturer McLaren - pitched up with the original Gocycle.
