Joy e-bike Glob specifications and features
Every figure from the manufacturer's sheet, plus what each feature actually does for you.
The numbers in context
Each figure read against the 88 electric scooters we have reviewed.
A spec sheet on its own says little. Here every Glob figure is set against the average for the 88 electric scooters on this site, so you can see which numbers are ordinary for the class and which ones set it apart.
The 0.3 kW motor is 4.8 kW below the class average of 5 kW, 64th of 76. Battery of 1.4 kWh is 1.3 kWh below the class average of 2.7 kWh, 72nd of 88. Certified range of 60 km is 62 km below the class average of 122 km, 83rd of 88.
Charging time is 5 hours, right on the class average of 4.9 hours. Top speed is 25 km/h, 42 km/h below the class average of 67 km/h, 72nd of 88. Kerb weight is 66 kg, 41 kg below the class average of 107 kg, 3rd of 68. That is weight you notice at walking pace, in a U-turn and when pushing it into a parking spot.

Dimensions in practice
The Glob weighs 66 kg with fluids.
Tyres are 3.00-10 front and 3.00-10 rear, tubeless.
Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Console and connectivity
Digital console
Trip meters, real-time mileage and a gear indicator. The analogue dial is disappearing.
Convenience
USB charging port
Charges the phone on a long commute. Check whether it is Type-A or Type-C.
Under-seat storage
Whether a full-face helmet fits is the question to ask at the showroom.
Engine kill switch
Switch the engine off from the right bar without reaching for the key.
Electric
Public or home fast charger support cuts a full charge from overnight to an hour or two.
Carry the pack upstairs to charge. Solves the no-plug-at-parking problem.
Reverse mode
Walks the scooter backwards out of a tight parking spot under motor power.
Cruise control
Holds a set speed on open roads. Mostly a highway feature.
Over-the-air updates
Software features and fixes arrive without a service visit.
Safety and braking
Front disc brake
Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.
Rear disc brake
Adds feel and fade resistance at the back; matters more on heavier or faster bikes.
Tubeless tyres
A puncture deflates slowly instead of instantly, and roadside repair takes ten minutes.
Hazard lamps
All four indicators flash; useful in fog and when stopped on a highway shoulder.
Chassis
Alloy wheels
Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.
Lighting
LED headlamp
Brighter, whiter and lasts the life of the bike. Halogens on rivals look yellow by comparison.
LED daytime running lamp
Makes you visible to cars in daylight, when most two-wheeler collisions happen.
LED tail lamp
Lights up instantly, which gives the vehicle behind a fraction more warning.
Equipment against Wolf, E2Go and Derby
Equipment present on at least one variant of each; check the variant table for trim-specific items.
Only the Glob has
- Rear disc brake
- LED daytime running lamp
- Engine kill switch
Rivals have, it lacks
