The GT33 has pedals and assist, but Riding'times publish no US e-bike class for it and quote a top speed above the 28 mph Class 3 ceiling. Many states will treat it as a moped or motor-driven cycle rather than a bicycle. Check your local rules before riding it on public roads; off-road and private property need no paperwork.
A cafe racer that carries things
The GT33 is Riding'times' utility bike: a moped-style frame reinforced for cargo, with a 1,350 W peak motor, 258 N·m of torque, a removable 48V 27Ah battery and a second battery bay built in. Fat tires, full suspension, hydraulic discs — and a claimed 34 mph top end, which is beyond every US e-bike class, so check your local rules before treating it as a street bike.
The GT33 is the practical one in Riding'times' lineup, and its design brief is visible from across the street: a Super73-style cafe racer silhouette, stretched and reinforced until it can do real work. The extended bench seat and cargo space take a passenger's weight or a week's groceries, the frame geometry is set up to stay stable when loaded, and the fat all-terrain tires soak up the pavement joints and gravel shortcuts an errand bike actually encounters.
The powertrain is torque-first: 1,350 watts of peak power delivering 258 N·m at the wheel, which is the figure that matters when pulling away loaded from a stop or climbing with a passenger. Riding'times quote a top speed of up to 34 mph — worth saying plainly, that is above the 28 mph ceiling of Class 3, and they publish no e-bike class for this machine, so treat street use as a check-your-local-rules question rather than a given.
The battery story is the GT33's cleverest trick. The standard bike carries a removable 48V 27Ah pack — 1,296 watt-hours, more than many bikes twice the price — and the frame includes a second battery bay from the factory. Buy the Extra Battery version and both bays are filled for 2,592 watt-hours; buy the single and the option stays open. Riding'times publish no range figure, and we respect that; a pack this size on a bike this shape is genuinely long-legged, and doubling it is overkill in the best sense.
Running gear is full suspension — front fork and rear shock — with hydraulic disc brakes at both wheels, and pedals with assist for when you want to ride it like the bicycle it resembles. It is the kind of machine that replaces car trips, which is the highest compliment an e-bike can earn.
Riding'times warrant it for two years including motor and electrical components, battery prorated. MotorHabit sells and supports it — every claim and question starts with us at support@motorhabit.com.
Built to be loaded
Cargo e-bikes usually look like shelving units. The GT33 hides its utility in a cafe racer silhouette: the bench seat is long enough for a passenger, the frame is reinforced and balanced for weight, and the fat tires keep it planted when the rear is carrying more than a rider.
Riding'times pitch it at grocery runs, campground duty and daily errands — the trips that quietly replace a car — and the geometry choices back the pitch up.
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.

- 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

- Resettable 4-digit combination, no key to lose
- Frame bracket included, rides on the bike
258 N·m does the actual work
A cargo bike earns its keep in the first ten feet — pulling away loaded, uphill, from a dead stop. That is a torque problem, and the GT33's 1,350 W peak motor answers it with 258 N·m at the wheel.
The claimed 34 mph top end is honestly more than an errand bike needs, and more than any US e-bike class allows — Riding'times publish no class for it, and our FAQ covers what that means for street riding where you live.
The second battery bay ships in every frame
The standard GT33 carries a removable 48V 27Ah pack — 1,296 watt-hours, already generous — and an empty second bay built into the frame. The Extra Battery version fills it at purchase for 2,592 Wh total.
That structure is worth more than a big single pack: buy the single now and add the second battery when your trips justify it, or run one pack on the charger and one on the bike and never wait for either.
Full suspension and fat rubber
Errand routes are the worst-maintained pavement in America, and the GT33 is specified for exactly that: a front fork and rear shock, fat all-terrain tires with real air volume, and an upright riding position that keeps eyes on traffic.
Hydraulic discs at both wheels handle the part where a loaded bike needs to stop — the brake spec cheaper cargo bikes cut first.
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.

This table crosses a legal line the others don't: the three rivals are Class 2 e-bikes — 20 mph, street legal everywhere, no paperwork — while the GT33 claims 34 mph and carries no class at all, which makes it faster and more capable and possibly a moped in your state's eyes. On hardware it is not close: the GT33's 1,296 Wh standard pack doubles the biggest battery here, it is the only bike with a second battery bay, a cargo-rated frame or a passenger-length bench, and it costs the least. If you need certain street legality, buy a Class 2 from this table; if you need the utility, nothing here touches it.
Shipping, damage, and the fine print in plain words
Shipping & delivery
- Ships free. Riding'times dispatch from their US warehouses — Riverside, California, plus Somerset, New Jersey for the GT73 series.
- They do not publish a transit time, so we confirm the dispatch date with them on every order and pass it straight on to you.
- You get tracking as soon as it ships.
- Inspect the crate before you sign. Photograph or film any visible damage on the spot.
- Report shipping damage within 24 hours of delivery — Riding'times' own carrier window is 7 days, and the sooner we file, the cleaner the claim.
2-yr manufacturer warranty
- Riding'times is the manufacturer; MotorHabit sells and supports the bike, and every claim starts with us.
- Send photos or video of the fault to support@motorhabit.com and we open the claim with Riding'times for you.
- Riding'times warrant their bikes for 2 years for manufacturing defects, including the motor and electrical components. The battery carries a 2-year prorated warranty.
- Two photos speed every claim up: the serial number engraved on the motor hub, and the production label on the battery. Worth shooting the day the bike arrives.
- Wear items are not warranty matters on any e-bike: tires, brake pads, chains, grips, cables, rubber parts and bearings. Out-of-warranty faults still get 40% off replacement parts under Riding'times' own policy.
- Their terms void cover for stunts, racing, unauthorized modification and water damage to the battery. Keep the crate for the first two weeks — a damage or return claim is far easier with the original packaging.
