Performance Parameters and Efficiency
At the core of the Gobao P120 drive system is a motor with a nominal continuous power output of 250 W, which can nevertheless peak at up to 850 W during short bursts. The drive unit is optimized for high performance even at regular pedaling cadences – delivering a massive 806 W output at a cadence of 70 rpm.
Its most impressive feature is the torque, reaching a standard value of 110 Nm and ramping up to 120 Nm in Boost mode. This ensures effortless handling of even the steepest climbs and technical trail sections.
Despite these impressive stats, the motor maintains a very light weight of just 2.8 kg. The result is an excellent power-to-weight ratio of approximately 298 W/kg.
