All Terrain E-bike

All Terrain E-bike

All three options are simple and sorted looking machines , hardtail designs with air suspension forks as standard. The seat's a gel number to coddle the ol' under cheeks, too, which may be a nice touch, and you'll option them up to incorporate a sturdy-looking bike rack, fenders and lights.

All rock has an easy , reliable 750-W, 80-Nm (59 lb-ft) Bafang hub motor, and you'll get yourself a 48-V Panasonic battery pack of either 16 or 21 Ah, representing either 768 or 1,008 Wh of energy storage. That'll offer you somewhere between 20 and 75 miles (32 to 121 km) of range, counting on how hard you flow it, the terrain and which battery you choose .

The pedally part uses Shimano's entry-level Acera componentry, and provides you eight speeds to figure with. Going downmarket won't hurt you too badly on a hub driven e-bike; the chain and sprockets do not have to handle the torque from the motor. The motor is driven by a cadence sensor and a thumb throttle on the left.

I have written on the post of this site how easy ​sprayer for cyclists​ is to get sunstroke, riding a bicycle in the heat of summer​.

Four frame sizes are available: 17-, 19-, and 22-inch, and a step thru. The various styles mainly affect what tires continue , with the off-road ones rocking big Kenda fatties, and therefore the road ones offering a thinner tire with reduced rolling resistance for speed and efficiency.

They're live now on Kickstarter with prices starting at US$1,299.

Add $100 for the rack, fenders and lighting kit, and $200 for the extended range battery. Just like the Nireka Prime e-bike we wrote

about recently, you only got to put down a deposit of $299 to kick things off, and pay the remainder directly later. Perhaps this is often a sneaky way of paying Kickstarter less fees than if they took the entire price . Who knows?
