@@arbin_fits5996 Officially any bike with a motor over 250 Watt is illegal or should have license plate. I live in the Netherlands. However they cannot see the difference when you are just cruising by. Also lots of food delivery kids use these bikes now, I suppose with 250 Watt motor and no throttle. They in fact are more aimed at electric scooters. Bought this bike (used) yesterday, I foresee no problems 😃
i have an engine x that conforms to u.k regulations. i unlocked the throttle and you can use it to pull away and then start pedaling that gets rid of the delay. i use it on assist mode 3 which is enough for most situations and the battery will last for ages. i use a topeak explorer bag that can carry spare batteries and has a pannier style system for storage. i had to modify the adapter though to make it fit to the rack as mine has the bigger tubular bars but my genius, a hacksaw and some longer bolts soon solved that! im a big heavy guy and that '250' watt hub motor had no trouble pulling me along at all. for £900 its an absolute bargain and built like a tank!
If I had to guess, they probably said it maxed out at 25 so that they wouldn't have to register it as a class 4 electric bike which usually requires some extra stuff to be able to legally use. Either way, not complaining
@@BulletBarry It looked like the display defaulted to km/h when you showed it later in the video. 39 km/h is just barely under 25 mph. Did you have the mode changed when you were testing it?
The hydraulic brakes require way less adjustment then single adjustment mechanical. I can’t for the life of me adjust my single mechs! You do have to bleed these hydraulic brakes tho but they are self adjusting and there’s lots of benefits to them. Just means you aren’t constantly adjusting these and that’s so nice. Considering v brake Walmart bikes requires less adjustment then some electric bikes is crazy. Especially since the brakes are usually more expensive. However just cuz they have good performance doesn’t mean in my opinion they’re high quality. High quality is reliability without many adjustments
Mine came in folded with both tires installed and same for the stem, made assembly very easy. You gotta raise up the seat, otherwise your knees will hurt.
Hello, i’ve watched a lot of reviews on this bike, and looking to buy it? but whenever i go to the bike link, it says “250W” in the specs, what’s the matter of that.. isn’t it a 750W?
Oh my goodness 🤣 You should not have bent the carrier it is tricky to find but believe me the carrier should have fit just fine 😂 I had as much trouble assembling my the bike. Nice color
@@trebor1973j Yes this I have heard. But I love the M1 PRO. It gets respect from drivers on the road. Its built like a tank. Has that awesome torque. Never left standing at traffic lights. I have people asking me what is it all the time.
@@milo4504 m1pro is uncomfortable you are leaning over the handle bares it has no mounts for rear rack it is quicker but try riding it for couple of hours my choice would be the ep2
A few questions. Are they both powerful enough for two people? would they tip over with an extra person on the back? Thankyou for your help. Much appreciated
That's a typical whining negative comment. A modern li on battery will last around 600 charging cycles depending on how you use or store. That's years for the average rider. Then simple but a new one. Cost around £300. Or buy a spare one with the bike if you need Extra distance. How about electric cars?
