How often should the battery be charged?
You can view full details of the best practices for battery charging in the Gocycle Owner’s Manual. We recommend charging your Gocycle after a ride and, once charged, unplugging the Gocycle from the charger and turning off the Gocycle to conserve battery power. It is NOT recommended to leave your Gocycle on charge for more than 24 hours.
How to find out how much charge is left in the battery?
For Gocycles with a handlebar dash display, this will indicate the charge level of the battery. You can also see the battery charge level in the GocycleConnect App. If the battery is out of the frame, you can check the battery charge level using the button on the end of the battery:
GX, GXi, G4 and G4i
- Turn on the battery as normal
- Tap the button on the end of the battery
- The 4 LEDs will light up, indicating the charge status - 4 LEDs = full charge
G3, G2 and GS
Press the button on the rear of the Gocycle above the charger port. There are 4 LEDs above the button. Each LED represents 25% of the charge state. for example, 3 LEDs represents 75% charge.
