The Freego Nova 5 Mini is not street legal. No pedals, no US e-bike class rating and a 37 mph top speed on level three. The 10 mph first level makes it a sane bike to learn on, but it does not make it road legal. Ride it on private land, closed courses and OHV trails where local rules allow, and gear up - a small bike at 37 mph hurts exactly as much as a big one.
10 mph on level one, 37 on level three
A real mid-drive with a two-stage reduction, on a 99 lb frame with a speed cap you can actually set. Off-road and private property only.
The Nova 5 Mini is a mid-drive dirt bike scaled down rather than a toy scaled up. 1,500 W nominal and 2,500 W peak through a centrally mounted brushless motor, geared through a two-stage reduction - a 23:51 pulley into a 13:56 chain sprocket, 1:9.6 overall - on a 48V 21Ah pack worth 1,008 watt-hours.
What makes it usable for a newer or smaller rider is the three-level speed switch: level 1 caps the bike at 10 mph, level 3 opens it to 37 mph. Freego quotes up to 35 miles in Eco at 10 mph and about 20 miles in Sport at 30 mph. Brakes are two-piston hydraulics on 203 mm rotors at both ends, suspension is hydraulic front and rear, and wheels are a 14 inch front with a 12 inch rear on puncture-resistant tubed tires. Curb weight is 99 lb.
Off-road use only. No pedals, no US e-bike class, not street legal.
Every bike ships with the free $60 Starter Pack
Two things every new rider buys in week one, already in your order: a mount so navigation stays where you can read it, and a lock so the bike stays yours.
Handlebar phone mount
- Four-corner clamp with a metal safety lock
- 360° ball-joint swivel, set it to any angle
- Fits 15 to 40 mm bars, tools-free adjustment
6 ft combination cable lock
- 6 ft braided steel cable
- Resettable 4-digit combination, no key to lose
- Frame bracket included, rides on the bike
A two-stage reduction, 1:9.6 overall
The Nova 5 Mini drives its rear wheel through a belt pulley reduction of 23:51 and then a chain sprocket reduction of 13:56 - 1:9.6 in total. That is why a 1,500 W nominal motor pulls like it does off the line. Most bikes this size use a hub motor and give you nothing to gear.
10 mph on level one
Level 1 holds the bike at 10 mph. Level 3 gives you all 37. That first level is the reason this is a defensible bike to put a newer rider on - it is a hard cap in the controller, not a request. Freego quotes up to 35 miles of range at 10 mph and about 20 at 30 mph.
1,008 Wh, and a four-hour charge
A 48V 21Ah pack worth 1,008 watt-hours, refilled by a 54.6V 3A charger in four to six hours. That is a sensible amount of energy for a 99 lb bike - enough for a full afternoon at trail speeds without the weight penalty of a 72V pack.
What a full charge costs you
203 mm rotors on a 99 lb bike
Two-piston hydraulic calipers on 203 mm discs front and rear - the same rotor diameter Freego puts on bikes twice this weight - with hydraulic shocks at both ends and thick inner tubes in puncture-resistant tires. Wheels stagger 14 inch front to 12 inch rear on alloy rims.
Will it fit you? Here are the numbers.
The question we get asked most. Seat height and rider range decide this more than anything on the spec sheet.

Freego's three small machines, and they are not interchangeable. The K1 is a genuine children's minibike at 15.5 mph. The X0 and the Nova 5 Mini both weigh 99 lb and do 37 to 40 mph - they fit smaller riders but they are not toys.
