2021 Cyrusher XF650 ebike - Overview & Performance 

Dude your videos and information are super awesome. Thanks for all your great info. I appreciate you. I know putting these videos together is a lot of work, so I wanted to let you know that I do enjoy them. Thank you👍💯

You make great informative useful videos. I just got a Haoqi Black Leopard, shares many parts with this Cyrusher; motor, display, front forks, handlebars, rack, front light with no horn but a rear brake light. My first e-bike. Initial riding is WOW. Pedal-assist kicks in like a mule set at 1. Throttle is very linear, easy to control. AND it is easy to ride. I rode bikes all my life, including motorcycles. Got an e-bike as I hope to use for riding around town & the many trails in our area. Working on a video review as there are no Haoqi independent reviews yet. One downside is no technical customer support, manual has many errors & is for a different controller. I found an S700 manual online that explains a lot. Keep riding & sharing.

You and your channel have helped me make the choice to get an E-Bike, at 60+ I want transportation with out the expense of a car, thanks, and keep up the good work, Peace from Vancouver WA

Many yeas ago when I used to ride bicycles on the canal toe path, when I came across any walkers I would shout out BEEP BEEPQ really loud. Never needed a horn or a bell. Great vid by the way.....

Jeeez!!!! That horn was really loud it really scared the shite out of me 😱😱😱

Here in Penna. our weather is terrible now. Riding is pretty much over. You have sunshine, and I'm jealous. It's gonna be a long, dark winter!!

Watching your clips from uk love the look of this bike thanks for all the information there is so many out there now its great to have someone down to earth showing what they can do will be looking to perches the Cyrusher xf650. Thanks for your help.

Interesting Cycrusher XF650 E-Bike. Not a fan of Fat Tires. Because they are harder in turning. I find that fighting against the science of the wider tires pull opposite. So I’m the proud owner of my New Awesome EVELO DELTA X E-Bike with it’s 27.5” Ballon Tires. Featuring the NuVinchi CVT (Continuous Variable Transmission) and 750 Watt BAFANG Mid-Drive motor with 120NM of torque. I appreciate the color display with Battery 🔋 %. I personally appreciate and love the industry leading 4 years/20,000 Miles warranty. Plus way more.

I just traded in my rad runner for this new Cyrusher. Love the Blue color.

Thanks for Byran's excellent and honest review. The blue color looks really cool. Order in stock, we can ship it out within the next business day!

I'm really impressed with this bike at this price. I can't wait to ride one.

I would like to be a temporary Nomad on my e-bike this summer and have a home base but live on my bike for a couple months

Another great review done again citizan my favorite thing by far on this bike is hot they ran the wires through the top tub of the frame and kept the controller inside the frame as well .those shifters rock I have shifters similar to those on my $3600 specialized bike .similar in how they work . The fenders also have that metal look to them too ! It looks stellar and this maybe a bike that I consider buying and wished I took a closer look at b4 buying the Rad though I do like the fact that Rad is so easily upgradeable in just about all points of the bike. The handle bars are also a big plus. I'd really like to see a range test and see how far one can realistically ride on one charge . Thanks again for another awesome review and great call on adding foam saving the controller from taking a beating too ! Merry Christmas .👍😁

Thanks for getting back.. Much appreciated.. Hmm.. I've already ordered post..!! Will give it a try.. Thanks Phil.

I love the look of the bike.

I just went to their website and the seat that they sell there has a taillight built-in

Nice looking bike, price point seems to be right on also.

Great review as usual. Now I’m really crammed as to which is my first e-bike with this one added to the menu. Lol.

I have a Himiway which has a nice integrated bell. However there have been many times that a bell is not loud enough. I'll give a first ring, then a second and then at the third ring it is so close that the walker is surprised and jumps. If they are not custom to bike paths and not thinking in time they jump into my bikes path. By that time I've come close to a stop to avoid the collision but it's annoying. A distant loud horn makes sense.

For a already made ebike the price is actually decent and reasonable for what you get

I wonder if the cyrusher will ever replace the mistress being that it's fall suspension and all ! My guess is that it depends how upgradable it is and if it's worth it ! I also wonder where the battery technology is headed for 20/21? Happy New Year Citizen and citizens alike

Bike Horn Thoughts: More helpful user feedback suggestions ... maybe? Personally, I think that the electric horn feature is, in principle, a Great Idea. Really! My suggestion is to modify the horn 'button' so that it can be operated in a couple of different ways. Allow me to illustrate the CitizenCycle (patent pending) bike horn. #1 - You're zipping along one afternoon on your favourite greenway trail, and there's some folks up ahead quietly chatting. Given the context, you sound the horn by giving the button a standard light push ... a friendly bell chime sounds (Horn Mode 1). The folks up ahead, now alerted, step back out of the way, smiles abound as they give a wave and you pass on through. All is good. #2 - You're on you're way back home after that epic afternoon. You now find yourself hustling through your neighbourhood streets trying not to be late; others (in cars) are in a hurry as well. There's a lot more traffic at this time of day. You're rounding a turn just when you see a car clipping along in your direction. Then ... at exactly the wrong time ... some kids that you hadn't noticed, that were chasing each other, are now gunning towards the street ... completely unaware. With no time to spare you instinctively slam the horn. You give the horn button a very deliberate HARD PUSH this time (you feel the button click down once and then click a second time down further with that added push). This HARD PUSH activates Horn Mode 2 whereupon the horn blasts its much more serious ... almost foreboding ... loud warning. You swerve out of the way, the alerted driver hits the brakes, and the kids ... IMMEDIATELY ... stop in their tracks (one of them even pees in their pants). A few seconds later, once the dust has settled, you see that the kids are OK (aside from a little embarrassment) , you give a wave to the driver of the car, and carry on home. All is good.

Great review! I think just replaced the Rad Rover I was going to purchase!

Nice review. That looks like a great bike for that price range. I too wish that it had a tail/stop light and would even be willing to pay a little extra for that option. BTW, did you get a different camera? The video quality seems better today. Speaking of which, have you set up a Patreon account? That gives us viewers a chance to thank video producers like you, and has the benefit of providing you, the producer with a bit of change for add'l or upgraded equipment etc. I'm a great believer in "Nothing in life is free" so I try to pay my way whenever I can.

I paid £1119, for a 1000watt. 48 Volt.17•5 Ah battery. Apollo Valier. This might look nicer. But too heavy. Mine is two years old. Still goes fine. This one seems to basically perform the same as the 90 . Which is an extra 1000 dollars. I'm allowing for the rate of money exchange. As the shipping to Britain is taking up the extra cash.

After watching the review my thought are this is not bad. Cyrusher is usually on the pricey side for what you get but 1600 is not bad for a bike that tops out at 30. I was really only expecting it to do 25. Thinking maybe it has the bigger motor in that casing.

Nice job. This bike looks beast and the price is not bad at all. 🔴⚪️⚫️

Starting my research on e bikes and enjoy your opinion on the different models. One thing I would like to hear is your input on noise level as I believe there are large differences.

Who cares what your friends and family think? It is not for them it's for you so they should not be judging. My brother worked his ass off his whole life and he has bills to show for it and lots of bills to pay off through his retirement. I don't think that's the way to go. Freedom yes!

where are they serviced? that might be handy, and i can give you a 29.95 fix for that loud horn, American made too.

Great review, very thorough and well done! I recently moved from Raleigh to Oak Island and I am upgrading from a Nakto Camel 36V/250 to this bike. Looking forward to riding on the beach and covering the entire island. The extra power and speed should be a blast!

Good for you dude. Your getting there huh? And I'm just talking about the hair cut. Jk. I've been watching your videos for a few months, right before I got my Himiway. But, your consistent. Good stuff 👍

Good overview! I didn’t notice a derailleur guard on the close up. First bike I’ve seen without one. For me, I loved the blue colors on this bike. Everyone’s got a black bike/black wheels. Maybe I’ve had my Rad too long...

It saves your money. You don't have rent you are your own landlord. It would be a little difficult to adapt at first but I can do it because I've been homeless. In life you need a place to live and food to eat and clothes to wear. You don't need all this stuff. I want to free myself from stuff. Stuff is not important people are

Went to their website today to look at this bike. On the website it says it only comes with a 7-speed Shimano. The XF900 at $2800 seems to be the only one that has 21 speeds.

Very nice bike! I like it. I love the fenders. Those are the best fenders I've seen. I like the color. I'm not sure if I would really need that many gears though. I also wish they had a tailight. I like that it has a twist throttle too. It's actually a bike I would consider buying. Very good review as always!

Looks-wise I think that is the best-looking bike that you did a video on so far, they would sell a lot more of these if that battery was closer to the size of the Himiway way battery, love your videos Man, do a good job on doing real world type test for the average person, I bought theHimiway way bike based on videos like yours, and other reviews, I really love that blue color scheme, on your pedaling Hill Climb test do you feel like this bike had as much pulling power AS the Himiway ,or since it's a 1000 watt motor did it feel like it had a little more when you are peddling on the hill test?

Thank you. I plan to buy this 1 fir my son

Really great job man !!!! Just what I want to see and hear !!!!!! Any assembly required?

Great review. What app are you using on your phone? Thanks

Hi Citizen, Well I still have not got my Himiway as yet. The Cyrusher seems to be a great bike. Loved your review... Merry Christmas!

Adjustable stem is a plus for sure

Lol, my Speedrid has the same horn. People think I'm pulling up on them with a police cruiser.

From one Cyrusher bike reviewer to another. Great review dude. (",)

You said the rims change colour and frames are always black but the pics show the same colour on the frame as the rims on the different colour bikes you showed, so I am confused to why you said that?

Excellent review, and I need to make a spreadsheet of your test data! I like the looks, mostly, but the battery pack kills it. If it was integrated, the bike would look much better.

Great review, thanks. Weight of rider for reference, please?

I've been eyeballing the full suspension Cyrusher so this video is a great help, thank you. I have been wondering though if it bothers you that there doesn't seem to be any real performance upgrades like aftermarket controllers, motors etc? I would love a full suspension bike but they just don't seem to match the performance of my upgraded Rovers. Maybe since you have so many bikes it's not as important.

Would you recommend this over the radrover 5?

Excellent content, and edits. Please mention what the "Misstress" does when comparing Rad, Himi and what happened to Bixtrix? 2 questions in one Ride ON! Mr.CC Rider

Great review 👍🏻...love the color options and the bike .... but .... still looking for a 24” hub driven bike that equal to the Himiway speed and price. Thanks for you time and keep up the reviews.

This was after saving what to me was a huge amount of money- I am very poor and I consider even 100-200 to be a lot money. This bike was years old saving and loans to get for £1800 roughly. I was so excited till today when it was marked dispatched then….. suddenly seller messages saying they don’t have any XF650 would I take the smaller folding one instead since they MIGHT have them? I said no, how long to get the bike that was listed as being in stock and I have paid for- they said “end of month probably” (not encouraging language). I then noticed the manufacturer direct have 3 in stock in the U.K. and so does a seller on eBay, so I’m trying to get the refund from the seller who sold me something he doesn’t actually have. Also he sold at a £100 markup - so when I get my money back (ALL my money, savings everything) then I will buy again from the manufacturer directly on credit card. Any advice from anyone else?

Which bikes do you prefer for the price 🤔asking for a friend 🤔😉 ?

What a great bike and combination of good parts for the price!! Love its 21speed.

They gave you the bike for a review but do you keep it or return the bike back to them?

Hey Hey Citizen Johnny V here again Knee deep in snow i might add , I do not know what your day job is but one thing for sure is that if I was starting up a business / E- Bikes or what ever and i did not source you out to do the promos of the products I or they they are fools, well done again another great video . Stay safe and once again Seasons Greetings from snowy Nova Scotia.

A loud horn can save your life, and you can always just yell out, "on your left", or the equivalent..If you read reviews from years ago, Cyrusher was aware of the rattling controller, just saying....Good review....

Would like to see you sitting and pedaling bikes that you test so that we can see your riding position and fit on the bike for comfort reference.

Looks remarkably similar to the Ecotric Hammer, but the hammer has a more retro laid back cruiser look.

Nice bike, thanks for the video, looking at madmod sondor, I have the the radrover, please try a moped type fat tire bike next. I did the upgrades you did On radrover.

Nice review. Are you sure shifter is entry level? I like that shifter style.

Another nice review! I’m not understanding “peak” power. Is my Himiway 750 peak? Can you tell me what street you use for the hill climb test. I’m curious about the grade.

Thanks for the review. My x650 is coming in the mail in a few days and I’ve been kinda worried since I just learned about this company randomly. If it lasts a few years with regular maintenance then it will be worth it Had a 2017 RadCity and I just accidentally burned it up and they are out of stock for a while

Love your reviews keep it up.

looks like a winner, what is the cost?

good video, thanks

Did you do a distance test using throttle only, full battery charge, no peddling?

Bike might be okay but service sucks, waited three hours on hold and finally gave up. Tried on line messaging no better, good luck with that kind of service.

21 speed is really stupid. The tallest gear is the same as a 7 speed. Just makes shifting more difficult.

Tire pressure makes huge difference in top speeds. There is a tail light under seat

Great review

I am going to buy one, but I don't know witch one, I'm 230lbs. And need the power, I was set on the ecotric hammer

So sick!

Love the horn

Ive got 1000 miles on chouyang tires on a fat bike 500 on kendas I bet the kendas wear out way sooner

Seems a decent entry level e-bike. Peak power isn't the appropriate power rating. What the motor can put out continuously is the power rating. That bike has a 1000 watt motor like the Rad has a 750 watt motor. Not an uncommon practice to use the peak number for advertising but I find it deceptive. I'm curious if that 100 watts assumes the full 20 amps, or is that the rating out of the box? I had that same phone holder...until my phone flew off on a bump & cracked the screen. You can replace the reflector with a battery operated light. They even sell ones with acceleration sensors that will come on when the bike is in motion and get brighter when stopping. I live on a steep hill that would almost stop all your e-bikes other than the Biktrix Stunner X. Hub motors and steep hills aren't a good mix. Ride on & enjoy;)

In this price range , what bike would you go with?

If it had a 25A controller it might be ok at that price. Makes me wonder why the weak controller. Should be 1200W peak. Either the wiring is light or they don't believe in their motor. Must be 500W windings.

Mine never came with a lock. I got a red and black one

Excellent horn...

Cyrusher XF650 vs Himiway Cruiser Fat. Which would be better as in power and speed?

do they go uphills? if so how steep of a hill can they climb?

Is this cadence sensor or torque sensor?

would this bike be suitable for someone who is 6'4? Thanks

Could also just muffle the horn with something as well if your riding down greenways

Have you compared this bike to the Hemingway cruiser or Rad Rhino.

Just checked their site, price listed as $1799. Lower price must have been on Black Friday.

Have u I video on ho to increase speed settings on the xf650

I have a question not related to this video. Is it a good idea to bring my battery into the house now that it has become freekin cold? As for this bike, I don't even have 100 miles on my RR, I can't be lusting after another bike. That said the XF650 Motorcycle Style winked at me. EDIT: Is that the same battery as the one on the RadRover?

I got the XF650 a couple of months ago and find it a fantastic ride,my only problem with it is getting on and off it. I am 5'8" which should be OK with the bike but even off the seat I am tippy toes to the floor and have to lean it to get a full foot down. Is there any other very similar ebike that would suit my short legs.

up to 50miles range just throttle ?

Hey.. I've purchased the xf650 and have asked cyrusher several times to give me dimensions of seat post to buy suspension post.. But they never answer.. 1 can you tell me? 2 do you think I will need one? Hope you get back to me.. Thanks. Phil

Thanks for the info, great job! You mentioned 21 speed on the gears but the website says 7 speed. Please explain?

I could see a small bannana seat on that!! Well thought out bike!!

I do not like patched-on batteries. Also, 1000 watt ebikes are not legal in may jurisdictions.

Has Maxxfoot reached out to you yet?

It's crazy that only one year ago these bikes were below the 1000$ mark, we are getting ripped off. And all the bikes on amazon that are below the 1000 mark are currently unavailable? But 1500 and up bikes no problem and most of those are just rebranded $700 bike selling for $1500 fact.....

How much does this bike weigh?

Would like to see someone do an off road hill climb and include grade % with these bikes.

Where would you put this in ranks vs. the 2020 rad rover? Can you say which is money better spent
