About the Tempo Mid-Step
Velotric officially calls this low-entry frame the Tempo Mid-Step. It is the model represented in eBike NOLA's pricing data as the Tempo Plus Step-Thru. At 39 lbs, it is substantially easier to lift and maneuver than most full-power commuters while retaining a removable battery, throttle, integrated lighting, and hydraulic brakes.
The 350W inner-rotor rear hub motor peaks at 650W and produces 45Nm. SensorSwap lets the rider choose torque-sensing or cadence-sensing assist, while the removable throttle supports class switching where local rules permit.
Key Features
- 350W rear hub motor with 650W peak power and 45Nm.
- 36V 10.14Ah, 374Wh removable battery.
- SensorSwap torque and cadence sensor modes.
- Shimano hydraulic disc brakes with motor power cutoffs.
- 700 x 42c puncture-resistant Kenda tires.
- Apple Find My, Google Find Hub, NFC unlock, app tuning, and Pulse Mode.
Light Enough to Feel Like a Bicycle
The Tempo's rigid alloy fork, 700 x 42c gravel-ready tires, and 8-speed drivetrain favor efficient urban riding over heavy suspension or fat-tire cushioning. Compare it with the Discover 3 if you want more motor power, air suspension, a suspension seatpost, fenders, and a rack.
