First-Ride Review: G-FORCE DE-S – A Fast, Long-Range Cargo Electric Bike

The G-FORCE DE-S doesn’t just haul groceries; it hauls in speed, range, and value. After a hands-on assembly and ride test, creator HeroesNStuff rated this cargo electric bike an impressive 8.5/10. Below is a breakdown of his findings—plus a few insights on why the DE-S could be your next fat-tire cargo e-bike.

Quick, Hassle-Free Assembly

  • Time required: ≈ 1 hour

  • Packaging: All parts secure, no shipping damage

  • Tools & parts: Complete kit; rear rack is the longest he’s seen on any cargo model

  • Note: The printed manual is brief, but the build is straightforward

Motor & Pedal-Assist Performance

Setting Feel on the Road Comment
PAS 1-3 Smooth, natural “Better than most cargo bikes.”
PAS 4-5 Aggressive pull Great for heavy loads or hills.
Throttle Slight lag, peaks at 31 mph Wish-list: deeper app/console tuning to adjust PAS sensitivity.

Hill-Climb Test

  • Grade: Estimated 35-40°

  • Speed drop: Only to 18 mph

  • Verdict: More than enough torque for steep urban inclines—even with a loaded rack.

Handling, Brakes & Ride Comfort

  • Adjustable vertical stem—rare on cargo frames—lets tall and short riders dial in their posture.

  • Despite its long tail, the DE-S is narrow, making city lanes and sidewalks easy to thread.

  • Dual suspension (rear shock complements front fork) takes the sting out of potholes.

  • Hydraulic brakes inspire confidence; stopping is crisp even at top speed.

  • Tires: Adequate wet grip; only slight spin on slick pavement.

One caveat from the tester: the seat-post spring can feel “bouncy,” slightly muting the otherwise stable suspension setup.

Why HeroesNStuff Gave the DE-S an 8.5/10

  1. 100-mile single-charge range—serious mileage for courier shifts.

  2. 31 mph top speed—rare in a utility-class e-bike.

  3. Longest rear cargo rack in its price tier.

  4. Budget-friendly compared with premium electric cargo bikes that cost double.

Is the DE-S the Right Cargo E-Bike for You?

Choose the G-FORCE DE-S if you need:

  • A long-range cargo e-bike for food delivery or family errands.

  • Confident 35° hill-climbing without dropping below traffic speed.

  • A fold-proof rear rack that handles bigger boxes or child seats.

  • A fat-tire platform that’s still nimble in crowded streets.

Skip it only if you require ultra-fine software tuning of PAS levels—an update we hope G-FORCE adds soon.

Final Thoughts

From unboxing to tearing up the pavement at 31 mph, the G-FORCE DE-S proves a high-value contender in the growing field of electric cargo bikes. For riders who want speed, stamina, and massive carrying capacity without the boutique price tag, it’s hard to beat.
