About the Discover 3
The Discover 3 is built for upright everyday riding, errands, and longer paved trips. It combines an air-suspension fork, suspension seatpost, adjustable stem, integrated MIK HD rack, full fenders, and lighting in a low-step frame offered in two sizes.
Its 750W rear hub motor peaks at 1100W and produces 75Nm. SensorSwap lets riders select torque or cadence sensing, while a removable throttle and one-touch class changes adapt the bike for different legal riding environments.
Key Features
- 750W rear hub motor with 1100W peak power and 75Nm.
- 48V 15.2Ah, 730Wh removable battery.
- 80mm air-suspension fork with lockout and suspension seatpost.
- Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with motor power cutoffs.
- MIK HD-compatible rear rack rated for 66 lbs.

Comfort and Utility in One Package
The Discover 3 is heavier than the Tempo Plus Step-Thru, but it adds substantially more motor power, air suspension, a suspension seatpost, a large battery, fenders, and a 66-lb-rated rack. The choice depends on whether easy lifting or all-in commuter equipment matters more.
