Riding’times GT73 Safety Edition: the full-size electric motorbike at the sensible price

Two removable 48V 18.2Ah batteries, full suspension and 25-inch dirt tires, on exactly the same frame as the GT73 Pro, with the motor limited at the factory to 750W and the top speed to 15 mph. It gives up speed and nothing at all in range, comfort or the way it looks parked outside a coffee shop.

Built for the everyday, and for the weekend

The GT73 is built for the rider who wants one machine for both jobs: a comfortable, quiet run across town on weekdays, and gravel, fire roads and open trails when there is time for them. Dual batteries, fat dirt tires and long-travel suspension are the parts that make the second job possible; the first one it simply does.

Power and range

The same machine, set for 15 mph

The GT73 Safety Edition pairs two 48V 18.2Ah lithium packs, 1747 watt-hours between them, with the GT73’s rear hub motor and 48V 30A controller on the same full-twist throttle. Before it ships, Riding’times limit the motor to 750W and the top speed to 15 mph. 15 mph is below the 20 mph commonly used for Class 2 e-bikes, but e-bike classes also depend on motor power, the throttle, pedals and labeling, and they differ by state and city. Check the rules where you plan to ride before you take it on public roads, bike lanes, parks or trails.

Range is the same as the Pro: up to 85 miles on the throttle alone, up to 155 miles with pedal assist. Both packs lift out of the frame, and two 54.6V 2A chargers are in the box so they fill together, in nine to ten hours, on the frame or indoors.

Comfort and control

Composed on every kind of road

An inverted aluminium front fork with adjustable damping, and a hydraulic rear shock rated at 1200 lbs. Riding’times moved the rear from a plain spring to a hydraulic unit, and the difference is in the damping: the wheel follows the ground instead of bouncing off it, and the machine settles faster after a hit.

Braking is by two hydraulic discs on 230mm rotors with electronic braking from the motor on top. Under it all sit 25 by 3 inch dirt tires, 70/100-19 motorcycle sizing, on load-bearing 7074 alloy rims. The IPX4 rating covers spray and splashes; charging is the one place water never belongs. Never plug in a machine that is wet or whose battery looks swollen. Bring it straight in to us.

Engineered for the trail

The motor lives inside the rear hub with the brake rotor beside it: no chain to stretch, no derailleur to bend on a rock. On the Safety Edition it is limited to 750W and 15 mph, and the power comes in smoothly from the first degree of throttle.

Dual battery system

Two 48V 18.2Ah packs sit inside the frame triangle for a combined 36.4Ah. Both are removable, both UL 2849 compliant, and both charge at once on the supplied pair of chargers.

Before you buy

Riding’times GT73 questions we get asked

How fast is the GT73 Safety Edition?

Up to 15 mph. Riding’times limit the motor to 750W and the top speed to 15 mph at the factory, before it ships. The standard GT73 is the full-power version.

How far does it go on a charge?

Up to 85 miles on the throttle alone and up to 155 miles with pedal assist, from the two 48V 18.2Ah packs. Speed, hills, rider weight and cold weather all reduce those figures.

Are the batteries removable?

Yes. Both packs lift out of the frame and can be charged on the machine or indoors. Two chargers are included so both fill at once, in nine to ten hours.

GT73 Safety Edition or GT73 Pro Safety Edition?

Both are limited to 750W and 15 mph. Choose the GT73 Safety Edition for the same range, frame and comfort at a lower price; the GT73 Pro Safety Edition adds 60V packs and a charge that takes half the time.

Is the Safety Edition street legal? Do I need to register it?

Riding’times built the GT73 Safety Edition for riders who want a lower top speed, and they leave the legal question to local rules: licence, registration and insurance requirements vary by country, state and city. Its 15 mph limit is below the 20 mph commonly used for Class 2 e-bikes, but e-bike classes also depend on motor power, the throttle, pedals and labeling. New York’s e-bike definition requires a motor of less than 750 watts, so a 750W machine still sits outside it. Check the rules where you plan to ride; we are happy to talk it through in the shop.

What height rider does it fit?

Riding’times recommend 5’5” to 6’3”, with a 30.3 inch seat height. Shorter riders are better served by the GT54 or GT54 Pro.

Is it a good first electric motorbike?

Yes. The power comes in smoothly, the seating position is relaxed and the suspension is adjustable, which is why many first-time riders start on it. We set it up gently at handover and can firm it up as you get used to it.

What suspension does it have?

An inverted aluminium front fork with adjustable damping and a hydraulic rear shock rated at 1200 lbs. We set both for your weight when you collect it.

What brakes does it have?

Dual hydraulic disc brakes on 230mm rotors, with electronic braking from the motor layered on top.

Can I ride it in the rain?

It is rated IPX4, which covers splashes and spray. Never pressure-wash it, and never charge a machine that is wet or whose battery looks swollen or damaged; bring it straight in to us.

Is the battery UL certified?

Yes. Riding’times state both packs are UL 2849 compliant.

How heavy is it, and what can it carry?

116 lbs net, with a 330 lb maximum load.

Does it come assembled?

From Riding’times it ships about 85 percent built with the front wheel off. The tools are in the box, and our technicians can look it over at any Wilson’s shop.

Can I change the speed setting or modify it?

The Safety Edition is set at the factory to 750W and 15 mph before it ships. Aftermarket modifications void the warranty, so talk to us before changing anything.

Do you have it in stock?

Stock moves. Call (516) 300-0944 or come in and we will tell you where the nearest one is.

How can I pay, and who services it?

Checkout takes card, Shop Pay, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Servicing is by our technicians in the shop, with express service at every one of our locations, on any brand and any issue.

Safety Edition or the full-power GT73?

Same frame, batteries, brakes and range. The GT73 is the full-power version, rated 28 to 37 mph with a 2400W peak motor; the Safety Edition is limited to 750W and 15 mph.
