The Groove by Gen3 – The Fold Up Go Anywhere eBike

The Fold Up, Go Anywhere eBike
Looking for a for a great product to review next, I  thought “how about an electric scooter?”. Started my search and after checking out a few online I decided on Gen3’s The Verve Pro.  I wrote up my proposal to Gen3 and sent it off.  Soon I got a response back from Gen3 to let me know that the scooters are new and they didn’t actually have them in stock yet but to my surprise they offered me one of their e-Bikes and I happily agreed. They offer 4 different eBikes on their site and I choose the one that would be the most different and new to me, and went with The Groove.  The Groove is a foldable e-Bike which makes it easy to put in my trunk or to tuck away in the house or garage when not in use.

 

Transporting an e-Bike
E-Bikes are heavy and can make it difficult to transport.  Before I got started with e-Bikes I had a mountain bike and to transport it I installed a class 1 hitch for my bike rack to connect to.  This was fine for the bike that I had but when I switched to e-Bikes suddenly I found that my class 1 hitch was no longer enough.  Now, I  needed a class 2 hitch and a new bike rack and you’ve probably guessed it… this would add a lot of money to my bike budget plus I just couldn’t find a class 2 hitch available for my car.  Once got received The Groove my transporting issues went away.  Now, I simply fold up the e-Bike and put it in the trunk of my car!   This was an excellent option and enabled me to take it to the beach and my buddies house!  This was perfect.

 

My Buddy Maurice – A little anti e-Bike-ish?
My buddy Maurice (watch the video for his thoughts on the bike) was a little standoffish when we talked about e-Bikes. Knowing Maurice for most of my life I decided to have him try out The Groove because I knew him for an honest opinion.  I must say I was a little… well watch the video to see his reaction and hear his thoughts on The Groove.

 

Crashing The Groove
I took this bike over some tuff terrain and it took everything I put it through!  However, during one of my shoots for my video review, I tried racing towards one of my cameras and brake hard to slide up to and stop right in front of the camera and say “YEAH!” while giving a thumbs up.  One of many tries didn’t go so well.  I overcompensated standing straight up and wound up dropping the bike and being flung over it onto the loose gravel!  The Groove held up way better than I did.  In fact, I couldn’t find anything wrong with the bike but I had some minor cuts and scrapes from it.  Gen3 not only made a fun, foldable e-Bike but also a tough one.

The Good
It’s foldable, it has a lot of torque, it meets the max speed limit of 20mph, it’s tough, and it’s fun!

 

The Bad
Gen3 has a good grasp on what an e-Bike should be and so far I can’t find a single thing to complain about.
