Our verdict on each

G-Force

G-Force suits budget riders who want a throttle and a large battery without moving upmarket, with fat-tire, cargo, folding and step-through models listed at $599 to $1,899. The trade-off is partner-run servicing and a short frame warranty, so read the terms before buying.

Pros and cons

G-Force

Pros

  • Throttle and removable battery as standard, with a 3,120 Wh pack on the ZM PRO and a claimed 338 km of range.
  • Hydraulic disc brakes and a 181 kg payload rating make the RS useful for heavy loads and rough ground.
  • A 14 days money-back window plus finance available, so a bike near $1,899 is easier to justify.

Cons

  • Frame and battery cover runs 1 year and 1 year, thin for a bike listed at $1,899.
  • Servicing is arranged through partner shops rather than company workshops, so check local coverage first.
  • Belt drive is not offered, so the chain wants regular cleaning after wet or muddy rides.

iHoverboard

Pros

  • Price from £99.99 puts the brand at 5 of 52 on the site, so entry is priced at the sharp end.
  • Finance is available and the bike range tops out at £639.99, so the pricier frames can be spread rather than paid outright.
  • Support runs on email, phone and chat with servicing in-house, and a spare parts shop lets wear parts be ordered directly.

Cons

  • Suspension is absent on the scooter, so the ride suits smooth urban routes more than broken ones.
  • Belt drive is absent on the bike, so the drivetrain is the part that needs regular attention.
  • Battery capacity of 270 Wh ranks 16 of 20 brands on the site, well under 436.7 Wh.

Who each suits

G-Force

Who it suits

  • Riders on a budget who want a throttle and a big pack, with the RS and ZM PRO line starting at $599.
  • Anyone moving loads or riding rough ground, given fat tire, cargo and folding in the catalogue and a 181 kg payload rating on the RS.
  • Buyers in the United States, CA and GB who want the choice of ordering direct or through a dealer.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Anyone after a mountain bike: Kalkhoff lists city, hybrid and step through, and the G-Force range of fat tire, cargo and folding leaves e-MTBs out.
  • Riders who want a city and commuter line rather than fat-tire and cargo machines: Tern covers cargo, commuter and folding.
  • Buyers wanting fat-tire alongside commuter and e-MTB options from one maker: HK BEIRUI TRADE CO. lists commuter, folding and fat tire.

iHoverboard

Who it suits

  • Commuters who want a kick scooter that folds and weighs 12 kg, so it can go on a train or under a desk.
  • Riders buying scooters and bikes from one seller, with commuter, folding and step through frames, finance and a spare parts shop under the same roof.
  • Readers who want an own-brand shop to put against iSinwheel and AOVO Official, weighing i9, i8, i9Max, i10Plus, iX5S against GT2 1200W, GT1 2026 800W, S10MAX 1000W, S9PRO 500W and AOVO T1 Pro, AOVO X9 Promax, AOVO X11, AOVO G2.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Riders after a belt drive or suspension, since both are absent from the parts of the range described.
  • Long-distance commuters, because 270 Wh sits well under 436.7 Wh for the site, so pack size is worth weighing against iSinwheel or AOVO Official first.
  • Buyers shopping outside GB, DE and FR, where neither the range nor the service network reaches.

Questions about each

G-Force

How much does a G-Force e-bike cost?+

Prices run $599 to $1,899 across the range, and G-FORCE RS, G-FORCE RS ST, G-FORCE ZM PRO, G-FORCE DE-S are the reference bikes. That entry point puts G-Force at 32 of 149 brands on lowest price, while the top of the range sits at 48 of 145. Entry is competitive; the ceiling sits higher.

Which models does G-Force sell?+

The catalogue covers fat tire, cargo and folding, with G-FORCE RS, G-FORCE RS ST, G-FORCE ZM PRO, G-FORCE DE-S as the reference models. Motor setup is consistent across the line: hub drive from a bafang motor rated at 750 W, with a throttle on board. The RS and RS ST take heavy loads, the ZM PRO carries the biggest battery, and the DE-S is the step-through.

iHoverboard

What does entry cost, and can the bigger bikes be financed?+

Entry is priced at £99.99, which places the brand at 5 of 52 brands on the site for price from. The bike side is wider, with commuter, folding and step-through frames (commuter, folding and step through) and prices topping out at £639.99. Finance is available, so a larger frame can be spread rather than paid in one sum.

How far does one charge go?+

The folding scooter carries 270 Wh and a 30 km claimed range, a headline figure rather than an independent check. Larger bikes take 468 Wh, so the extra capacity sits on the bike models rather than the scooter. At 12 kg, the scooter is a short-commute machine with a 100 kg load limit for errands.
