[GoCycle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gocycle-g4) has created a new foldable e-bike, titled the GXi. The new model was designed to combine the performance of the company's [G3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campagnolo) bike with the quick folding capabilities of the [GX](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/december-to-remember-campaign). The new foldable e-bike is priced at $4,799 and will begin shipping in early 2020.

GoCycle's new bike weighs 38.6 pounds and features magnesium wheels and a removable 375Wh battery, which is located inside the bike's frame. The bike is powered by a 500W motor that has traction control and can bring the bike to a top speed of 20mph. Users are able to turn on the pedal assist functions by turning on the bike's throttle. The bike will also have a range between 25 and 28 miles.
