New Bafang Ultra - 1000W Torque sensored motor!

[roshan]

I would like to volunteer to be a beta tester for this bike, where do I sign up?

We have 250+ beta customers who paid for the bike already. You're a bit late to the beta party.

Ah, but I'm a great beta tester... Last chance as my schedule for testing e-bikes is getting full

Thanks, we'll pass for now.

Actually if you read our website, you'll see that we sell up to 21Ah.

I should llke to apologize, roshan. I just checked the site. These are not the Biktrix I remember from ebay 5 yrs. ago. They're worth
looking into. I will be looking for an EBR review.

I'll add that, while not especially impressed with the juggernaut, I like that 20" step-thru fat bike. With options it has possibilities.
I'm trying to teach my CCS to pull a plow, but for now it's a carriage horse.

Bumps the price up to $3500 US. But that's a mighty powerful bike.

Already have 21Ah on a good bike a $1000 cheaper.

Yep our Stunner LT hub drive bikes can come with 21ah battery for almost $1500 cheaper.
But it doesn't have near as much torque or performance. Depends on what you're after.

 

[TForan]

Of course I know 'How' to ridden one My bike havvum big power too.

Have you ridden one ? My guess is no. No comparison to a 750 watt hub.

 

[john peck]

My issue is with the mid-drive; I'd rip one to pieces just like I used to on skis with fully cranked down bindings. They're fine for a certain
type of riding which is seldom used by hulks my size....or my age. My 650w bike can do 28 mph+ & that's plenty fast enough for me.
'Sides, there are no juggernauts around here to test ride so the point is moot.

Moot? Um, how can you debate the ride quality of something you've never ridden?

Precisely! Why point out my not having ridden, since I have not had that option.

Maybe not voice an opinion on a bike that you have no experience with would be a good start. Simple, huh ? And I'm sure you wouldn't "rip one to pieces".

 

[john peck]

Just voicing my preferences. Don't care if you don't like them. Experience otherwise is unavailable. 1000w empties the battery fast, I don't
need that much power.

I don't care one way or another , but bad mouthing a bike you never rode is a bit rude to the builder.

 

[john peck]

I ain't gonna beat myself up over it. Maybe if there was one handy for a test ride i might change my mind, but don't ask me to buy a pig in poke.

This is pretty common, I'm finding. Much ado about nothing! Making blanket statements about performance or ability perform without having ridden a particular model is just air. But I respect John's willingness to fuss. The joys of forums. All good...

I think ride the bike and THEN, state your opinion. But, that's just me. I see the same nonsense on car forums all the time.

 

[john peck]

Fine, show me the bike. First off, I wasn't it putting down, Just stating what would happen if I were to ride it. I'd break it or break myself.
Some bikes ain't fur everyone.
