Trail tracker , Rad , or Teo fat bike

If you like Teslas, this is the bike to have...

I love Teslas, but it's out of reach for me. I'm more into a Honda Civic or Accord.

I wonder how the 2wd 600 watts combined Easy Motion would feel against the 750 watt Radrover or Teo up steep grades? The Radrover only has a cheaper front suspension fork with a spring; but, I usually get around 2 - 2 1/4 inches of travel when riding to smooth out the ride. No front suspension on the Easy Motion means all that force is hitting your upper body like a jackhammer.

I agree. I love the front suspension.

Not on a fat bike. Have you ever ridden one? Even with no suspension they are one smooth and cushy ride. You don't really need a suspension on a fat bike and if you do there is only one worth getting and that is the Bluto which is expensive. The cheaper front suspensions that come stock with most fat ebikes are crap and you are better off without one.

I don't have the Big Bud Pro but one of my ebikes is an E-Motion 2WD that has the same exact system and I will tell you that it has pretty good power (48v), torque sensing, smooth , hydro brakes and you have 2WD with control over both motors or front and rear separately. The frame is beautiful and the integration is flawless.

That looks like a very nice and may I say sexy bike.

I'm about 270lbs and maybe another 20-25 lbs for rack bag, accessories, and commuter back pack. I would have to ride the 600 watt 2wd fat bike to see if it feels the same as my 750w Rover. I know my Radrover is on the extreme lower end of ebikes in general and you get what you paid for. Just not sure if the Easy Motion is worth $2000 more than the Radrover?

I have two Radrovers for about a year with around 3300 miles between them. I use them for work commuting and single track trail riding equally. I work commuted with the front forks locked out compared to open. Much smoother ride with the suspension open (on and off road) with the rover. I also have a 400mm Suntour SP-12 NCX and Bodyfloat orange springs V2.0 350mm seatpost with Cloud-9 11.5X12.5 cruiser seats. Much less vibrations hitting bottom, spine, and my upper body with the suspension seatpost and forks compared when I first rode the same routes without the seatpost and suspension locked out (still feel the vibrations in my lower legs from the pedals and that is how I know how hard the two suspensions are working).

I've experimented with PSI set as low as 12 and high as 25 with 26X4" Kenda Juggernaut and Vee8 tires. The lower PSI work best for sand and rocky/hilly terrain. Higher PSI for level is fine for single track or work commuting combo riding (+22 PSI if 100% paved roads for max speed).

We are definitely different types of riders so maybe the front suspension works fine for you. For me, I would be afraid to do the kinda of riding I do with a cheap front suspension. I do agree with using a good suspension post.
