- How much weight can an E-bike handle? - MTB tow challenge! I push my Canyon electric mountain bike to the limits to see how much weight it can pull with it Bosch CX Race motor, can it really tow 8300kg?
I put my Canyon Strive:ON E mountain bike to the test by pulling and towing 4 increasingly heavy vehicles starting with my road legal CFMOTO buggy which is the lightest of them all at 700 kg then I go through my Mercedes vans until the biggest vehicle is released into the streets, my huge Phoenix motorhome which weighs around 8 tonnes! This bike challenge was super fun and shows just how strong these electric bikes really out, so what are you waiting for? Go get one and climb some hills!!
I hope you enjoy the video!

"random energy drink can" 🤣🤣 man, i hope you get sponsored by them
Really exposes a great way he could have represented monster back in the day. Everything measured in cans on monster.
Foreshadowing
Imagene he gets sponsored by monster
@@Xx__Pro00_Gamer_xX696 He just left Monster mere days ago.
He was
Canyon made best decision ever when they got Sam in team!
yop but this video is one big piece of rubbish really🐑🤷♂
@@user88.. agree, but its always nice to see Sam super enthusiastic about bike in general, like he really like having fun riding what ever life brings to him
Yes we did 😁
@@CanyonBicyclesthanks to Sam a Canyon Torque on is top of my wish list.
Great bikes 👍
Unfortunately a long way out of my price range.
Let's just appreciate the fact that Sam is the ultimate bike tester and Lewi is the ultimate cameraman for the job. They test so we can get solid information on what is the best E bike for towing random buggies and Sprinter vans. It's essential information. 😎👍
There's a reason bike trailers connect at the bike's axle and not the seat. The leverage won't pull the cyclist off balance. If you tied the tow rope lower its much easier to keep the bike upright.
Trilling video Sam. My pulse was at maximum torque while focusing on the distance between the random energy drink can and the tire. 2 million subscribers any day now!
😂🤙
He just hit it 😱
You should have put a can of Red Bull on the floor!😂
What's more impressive is that the seat post didn't snap off pulling all these vehicles
I'd drink Sam Pilgrim brand energy drink. Flavors like "Just Send It". Or a variety of tricks as flavors. 🤙
Good idea!
@@SamPilgrim#pilsips
@@SamPilgrimAs long as it’s priced reasonably
Bommy grape flavour. Yessss! Do it
The top would have a picture of Sam on it and the opening would be where his tooth is missing.
Effing brilliant and hilarious.Thank you Lou and Sam. Send It , SEND IT !
Even without the monny, no one can match your energy.
On the last vehicle he just needed a bit more…….REDBULL!!! 🤣👍🏾
Nice! In classic Sam Pilgrim fashion this was epic. 🎉
Hi Sam, I saw u the day u recorded this to try my new mtb hopper out and u made that sesh so sick for me and my mates
Hope to see u loads man ur local 🤙🤙
congrats on 2 mill!! epic!
You know your day will be good when Sam posts a video 🔥
love all your vids, keep up the great work!!!
Sooo close to 2million! You deserve it BIG DADDY Pilgrim 🍻🇨🇦
Gave up mountain biking but a Sam Pilgrim video is always welcomed🙏
Never seen sam not wearing his ride concepts. Weird to see him in regular half cabs 🤙🍹
So this could evolve into something like dog sledging! You should tow a sled! You could do the bike park! What if you had two bikes rigged up to pull a sled! Race! Epic.
Sam should get towed by six dogs across a snow covered skatepark..
Not with a rope, probably. Ok, probably with a rope.
I actually towed my friend on a sled with a ebike uphill, works very well
A front flip suicide no hander on a fkn sled would be pretty sick
Sam Pilgrim you are going to have two million subscribers, congratulations!!!!
Today was EPIC, Sam and Lewi, y'all rock! Can't believe it. To the sskkyyy! Peace 🤘
Lunatic! Great video guys
Almost 2 million subs you love to see it
What a legend this dude is! 😎
Congrats on 2m Sam you deserve it🎉
That gear change with the van tho 😂
Impressive!. Credit to the frame strength around the seatpost
That's got some torque,, ABSOLUTELY EPIC 💪💪
Nice, mine Strive:On underdog shoud arrive tomorrow xD
Foi da hora🚲🚗🛺🚍na próxima que tal tentar puxar um ✈️avião 😱😱😱🤣🤣será que dá....ia ser top...👍
Sam hit on it at the end - he needs to use a kinetic recovery rope.
Could be epic to use 2 e bikes and try to tow the motorhome
LOVE YOU SO MUCH MAN
I love this man
I love your videos so much Sam
Sick bro🎉
Very good idea
Bosch motor = quality= epic
Love the vids pilgs keep them a coming
Best video ever!!!
Best President Ever!
'random energy drink can', This man is the man you lookin for!
Thats incredible
Almost two mil, mister.... Hell yeah.
And it sropped cos of the can. LoVe the channel. Never miss a show!
Close to 2 million🔥🔥🔥🔥
You are Creazy man! 💯💪🏼
Love your videos, you should go to hockers mtb on hockers lane in Maidstone
i have seen plenty of these vids and the biggest issue seems to be just finding a good place to put the towing rope. my guess would be that the only way to do it perfectly would be to mount it to rear axle.
oh this isn't even that powerful... most of the ones i have seen were so powerful that the front wheel lifts up if they try to tow enough weight.
We learn from Sam how to break our bikes! 😅
That's unreal! 😂 You should do a ''pull off'' with different e-bikes against someone haha!
I'm always amazed they can pull such heavy things. A person on it must feel like nothing!
Damn
Energy Drink open contract now! 🤣
Sam watches WD square body test and was like “yup doing that with an e-bike”
You have now been promoted to Chief Scientific Bike Testing Officer 🤓 Congrats Sam 🤝😂
Be interesting to strip the motor to see if it sustained any damage, also to remove the cassette and check things out.
Science with Sam 😂
Now all you need is a bike trailer fitted w/ a Hopper Ramp so you can tow it around and hit some street boosters.... That would be sick. 😁👍🖤🖤
Go on !!
It's time to crack a 2 million subscribey o'clock! 😆
That bike is sick
Rockstar Energy is the best. They shall sponsor him
Fish on!
Congratulations Sam you’re pulled😂😂 joking aside wow I didn’t think it would pull the veto never mind the sprinter that’s amazing
I was actually wondering that this week 😅
2M LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
It's good to see how much torque the motor has
Nearly at 2 million I remember when you hit 1 million
i love your vids man i have tik tok with a new bike vid
If you used a solid bar that cannot move left or right radially, you would get more efficient forward motion. I think the motorhome would be possible.
Look up kinetic ropes, offroaders use them all the time for recovery of stuck vehicles. If you had a good run at it, either that thing will move or you are going over the handlebars
You should try with 2 canyons on the bus
The E-bikeguy with his DIY Ebike, towed a midsize car up to a speed of 28 MPH.
Towing a vehicle with a bike, traction will be the biggest part of the challenge. Sam shows up with knobby tires on a wet day...
yes sam
Incredible, I bet it could be done with a weighted backpack.
Science lesson of the day. If you raise the seat up and have a greater declined angle on your tow rope, you add a downward force onto your tire which gives you more traction.
Science lesson of tomorrow: longer levers provide more torque on the poor bike 😂 I’m sure the seat post would snap, sureely
Chemical Brothers!!! Push the Button
If you are joining red bull thats the best cluesie ive ever seen 👍👍
Samuel....Red Bull are a comin ❤
Gonna buy one and start a towing service
You know how you do that thing with a tube to stop your cranks spinning off jumps? Maybe try something like that to keep your bars straight and you'll be able to reduce the torque steer you're getting :p
Nice
Sick
love ya sam, great vids
You could pull like made if you ran the tow strap over with the back wheel turning the back wheel into a winch but this would be more of a test for how strong the wheel is I think all the force would squeeze around the wheel
I'm still so jealous of your full sus canyon
😊😊
That was not a random energy drink can, Sam is very clever that's a hint at his new sponsor
Random energy drink can” I thought you were gonna say: you know what that reminds me of?? It’s tiMe tO CraCk a monny! YAAAA🥳🥳
almost 2million folllows 🤟
This is what UA-cam was made for 😂 Can-Yon
Yesss sam
"random energy drink can" i really hope sam x Red bul
Ham break 😂😂
Try a kenetic recovery rope!!
I really hope your buggy fits the big motorhome
Need to try!
Yes - the epic ness has started
be funny at 1.14 if lewi in buggy crouched down pressing the acceleration pedal lol.
Full power! I reckon you could almost pull that motorhome even with that minicar innit. Or maybe that is just wishful thinking!?
damn thats crazy
You need a Harness with 6 E-bikers to get the camper up to speed I think!
Well there it is, tire pressure matters lol
Everyday is Epic. O/
