Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Velotric Nomad 2. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

12 reasons to buy

Velotric’s Nomad 2 comes as a step-through or step-over, both available in Regular and Large sizes.
Experts say the 4” puncture-resistant Kenda tires provide excellent traction on loose gravel, sand, snow, and dirt trails.
The Nomad 2 has both torque and cadence sensing modes.
Testers praise the comfortable ride over varied terrains thanks to the 100mm RST Guide fork, 50mm suspension seatpost, and fat tires.
Reviewers appreciate the steady and strong throttle power, which can overcome steep hills.
Pedal assist is smooth and responsive in torque-sensing mode.
The Tektro hydraulic disc brakes (203mm front, 180mm rear) prove powerful in testing.
The Nomad 2 has reach-adjustable brake levers and an adjustable stem with 60 degrees of movement.
The Nomad 2 is rated to carry a massive 505lb payload and tow up to 1,000lb.
Riders can switch between torque and cadence-sensing modes, customize throttle and PAS speeds, and switch e-bike classes using the display or Velotric’s app.
The bike features a USB-C port and Apple Find My tracking, though the tracking doesn’t work with Android devices.
The Nomad 2 comes with fenders, a 66lb-capacity MIK-HD rear rack, an auto-on headlight, and a taillight with turn signals and brake activation.

7 reasons not to buy

Velotric lists the weight at 75lb, but reviewers weigh the bike at 82lb (step-over) and 84lb (step-through).
The throttle can be unlocked to a max speed of 28mph, breaching the legal limit. Testers also report reaching up to 32mph with pedal assist.
Weighing 82 to 84lb, the Nomad 2 is very heavy.
Using PAS 5 with the torque sensor and Boost mode, a 160lb reviewer gets just 23.6 miles of range on a flat paved route. Experts say the battery drains even faster in cadence sensor mode.
The 15 PAS settings (three modes with five levels each) are “overkill,” according to testers.
Riding in cadence-sensing mode, a reviewer complains of jerky power delivery.
Experts agree the bike’s high weight and size limit its maneuverability.

Bottom line

Velotric’s Nomad 2 is a fat-tire e-bike with a 750W motor and 705.6Wh battery. Upgrades over the Nomad 1 Plus include a torque sensor, rear rack, suspension seatpost, a longer-travel fork, and a move to branded components like Tektro, RST, and Kenda. Experts praise the climbing performance, braking power, grippy tires, high payload capacity, and comfortable ride over rough terrain. The customizability of assist settings also impresses. The actual weight is higher than advertised, the unlocked throttle exceeds legal speed limits, and range is underwhelming. Overall, reviewers consider the Nomad 2 among the best fat-tire e-bikes on the market.
