    Not normally a big fan of the mountain bike styled bikes but this one hits hard in the looks department 🔥

    Just love that frame MCD. It’s worth swapping that controller out and adding in a 52v 30ah battery to make it the bike it deserves to be.

    I was waiting for this review. I am always looking for a good bike for my wife. I had my eye on this bike for a while. When you made an announcement you had the bike in you're garage, I was all for this review. Thank you again MCR.

    you can go into the settings and increase top end speed to like 35mph. I love my Taurus and off road with it.

      Yeah fucare almost killed me....better take it to a great tech cause these things fall apart

    That's a nice bike and if you had to build one
    you couldn't do much better for the price...
    A couple of things though.... 24ah battery is nice
    But the charging port is not one of the four pins Kind
    I don't know if you'd be able to upgrade a charger to maybe a 6 amp charger To decrease charging time
    might have to stick with a 2amp charger
    also a 750 watt motor is pretty weak for a big heavy bike and anyone around 200 lb
    Hills and wind would be a big factor in speed power....

      Put shorter cranks on it and a sticker over the logo

    I have never seen a Fucare in person but I always liked the "ladder" frame design.

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому

      alot of room it feels like in the frame at top

    For the price and a 26 inch bike I think it's one of your better big bikes that I've seen you ride. It's too tall for me but my brother is looking for a bike and he's taller. So I think I will show him your review after you ride it at night. I think with a couple Cheap mods Like adding a big rear light to the Rear rack that it hopefully comes with And a real horn and it would be a good bike.

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому

      the rack is a separate purchase on the website. says it comes with it though... but does not

    The pedal assist delay is adjustable. Not sure which setting it is on the Taurus but find the setting that is set at 9 and switch it to 2.

    For What is worth Fresno, I decided to ease up off your back some. One of the issues I’ve had with many EBike reviewers that they come off sounding like company shills and you now seem to be more truthful than others. My second issue is something I would just like to remind you of, minors, and children watch your videos and take a cue from you.

    That right hand tail light is 10 times brighter than any Lectric center mounted tail light. Way bright enough to be seen from the other side, also has a real brake light that gets brighter not just a week flashing light like Lectric. Headlight is way brighter than Lectric also! I have the Fucare Scorpio

  • @tenncutt
    @tenncutt Місяць тому

    My Scorpio has cruise. Throttle up to 12 mph or above and hold it steady the hold down the + button until cruise comes on. Pretty sure the Taurus has it.

    Nice! Fucare review. I like my Gemini X. It's been pretty good for commuting.

  • @ashpunting
    @ashpunting 8 місяців тому +1

    I do think this bike is a bargain all it needs is a suspension seat post and you can have the throttle on the other side if you buy the correct type

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому

      i think i would do my standard thumb throttle, not the sideways one. suspension seat post and new seat would change the comfort alot

  • @ashpunting
    @ashpunting 8 місяців тому

    I've got one of those throttles. I don't use it, but when I did, I pulled it up towards me plus mine was on the wright hand side

    You can get some vinyl to cover up that horrible "advertisement". I use it on my mtb to prevent chipping from chain slap and it's pretty durable

    You should try jumping that little canal. lol :) .... My next bike will be a torque censor. my current bike is similar to the one in this review. (magicycle). but I like to get a little excersize while enjoying my ebike rides. .. thanks for the vid.

    That's the kind of fat tire e-bike I'd buy if I could afford it. It's low enough to the ground that even setting the seat post for my 6'3" requirement, I could still put my foot flat on the ground.

    Hi MrC... curious what you think as "moped-style" ebike? ... like "motorized pedal bike ("moped")".. yes?.. I would for example much prefer a bike motor be pedaled from stops to shave off peak power-outs.. extend ranges per charge.. then especially to max. useful battery life before repurposing and final recycling and replacement. signed - Cheap guy

    Had some fun going through some wet muddy tracks with someone on the back, its first time i experience fat tires on mud and dam the grip is immense giggled like i was a kid again lol, yes the back wheel did slide but my front stuck , if i had normal tires i would of been on my azz the moment i got on the mud it was the deep and wet, still got to clean it but dam its to cold for thatr atm lol

    Well it’s only $1399 Amazon and compared to the wired, it’s a big competitor, don’t you think?

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому +1

      200 for shipping 1599. Wired is a 60v bike. Much more power

    Hrm... looks like what an mtb that a baby with a revv1 and made a malformed but not-so surron kid. I won't knock it but if it runs and is as sturdy as a tank I'd ride it🤔

    Do you happen to know what the headset specs are on the bike? I know Fucare sells a dual fork suspension for the bike as well but couldn’t find anywhere on their page what they use for the headset parts/specs.

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому

      no i didn't see it and the bike was gone before the video even went live

  • @olemissjim

    Weird it looks like a mid drive. But it’s a rear hub.
    Someone said you can unlock 32 mph?

    How hard would it be to put shorter cranks on that bike

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому +1

      Should be super easy and if your unsure a bicycle shop can do it easily

    I bought a Fucare e bike and the hub drive broke in less than one riding season. Customer Service did not respond and now the Fucare e bike is a pile of junk in my garage.

  • @davidgambler1591

    I see a bunch of junky welds if that is typical of the quality. 👎🏼

    • @MrCentralDriver
      @MrCentralDriver  8 місяців тому +1

      i didn't see that. must have missed it.

    • @bulletproof4716
      @bulletproof4716 8 місяців тому

      The weld itself, not junkie but they could've done a better job cleaning up the weld before painting the frame
