All I am in total agreement with everyone on this thread. The Freesky Alaska is a terrific commuter bike, capable of long range, fast commuting, bike paths, road riding and can enjoy hard packed easy trails and grassy fields. It handles all those tasks wonderfully, and I have zero complaints...

I will say I am a new e-bike rider. I just bought a Freesky Alaska, which they "claim" is a Mountain Bike. It has the rear hub motor and the bike weighs 90+lbs with both batteries. The pros with this bike are the amazing range (can get over 70+ miles, even using Pedal Assist 3 of 5 for the...

PDoz I was completely tongue-in-cheek when I responded, that is why I put the smiley emojis. I was not busting on Stefan. The Alaska has a rear hub motor only, not a hub and mid drive. The compartment you see below the pedals is where the controller is housed. There are two batteries on...

Jeremy I did lower my air pressure and the tires are less than spectacular on this bike. They are knobby tires but very shallow knobbies mostly for pavement and grass/hard pack trails. I was thinking the same thing about a more aggressive knobby tire. That is part of the solution but not all...

Correct, rear hub motor. It is my first foray into e-biking and I was ignorant as to drive types coming into it. Is there a budget mid drive you would recommend that could handle some rough single track with some hills.

I have a FreeSky Alaska e-bike and it is listed as a mountain bike, but it weighs over 90lbs. I have taken it through some tough single-track trails, and it can handle the level paths, even with rocks and roots, but where it struggles is with steeps and hill climbs. It is so heavy, that as...

It is good to know this is a community that cares about e-biking and e-biking safety. I can assure every one of you, the bike paths I am speaking of are wide open, straight as an arrow bike paths with no on/off paths and loads of green grass on either side. I stay well away from any other...

I have been riding dirt bikes, ATVs and street bikes for a few years now. I own a CAN-AM Outlander 850 and a Yamaha FZ8 street bike. I just bought my first e-bike, a Freesky Alaska. I have the "need for speed" gene, so I do elicit some curious, and probably some angry looks from people as I...

Wait a second Dewey, you are listed as being in the USA but when you use the term "boot" for a trunk, I know you are not originally from the States... :) UK perhaps... :)

Just purchased a Freesky Alaska e-bike. Have had a couple weeks and i have nearly 180 miles on it so I have reached just about the break-in period. I ride about 65% paved bike paths and 35% single-track mountain trails with rocks, roots, stumps and some hill climbs. Extremely easy bike to...
