The Laifook Thunder is a new ebike with a large battery and a powerful direct drive hub motor capable of hitting speeds north of 40 mph depending on rider weight. The seat is particularly comfortable for a moped style ebike due to its shape and padding material. It's definitely not a light weight ebike as it clocks in around 150 lbs, but it's got a huge battery and a passenger seat with passenger pegs making it a great high speed cruiser capable of carrying a passenger as well. The price is very fair considering other ebikes offered on the market. It's not the fastest or most powerful ebike I've tried, but it does offer a unique balance of speed, range, affordability, style, and practicality.

@TailHappyTV Great review! You should do a review on the new E-Bycco EB10 it is a dual motor with 2 2000 watt motors. 5000 watts of peak power. Advertised to go 45 mph and on sale right now for $1339.😳
Could you please review the Big Nui BGX?
This is the most appealing bike I've ever seen. I'm only 5'5'" and I 165 pounds, would this be too big?
@ I think it’ll work
I been looking at the Billy goat and the laifook video. I’m in the market of getting new bike and from your experience with the bikes which one you would rather prefer the goat or the laifook?
Peace be with you! Thank you for a year of entertaining PEV reviews. Happy New Year!
loved the skateboard intro.
Those are cook looking bikes. The big battery is nice. Its worth pointing out a direct drive will give you usually 5 x the life of a gear driven motor but it is a good idea to put ferromagnetic fluid in them sometimes I wish was just automatic
The black looks nice. The copper one i had was growing on me!
Yooo I live your vids dude
My girl wanted the copper one… it was a difficult choice, I think both look great, but either one will get you out on a looong adventure on a nice day
Would like to see you do a review on the javelin from spark cycle works and the vexcite mkr1
@@Apexridezz thanks!
Happy you are doing well hope things are better than it seems take it easy and hope to see new videos soon ❤
Seems like wicked freedom is the cheapest bike that can go 40mph+ coming in at $1999. Are there any other ones?
Thanks for the review. You are the best most thorough reviewer on UA-cam
Hope you're ok and you didnt lose too much with all the fires. Thanks for the videos.
love all of your videos!!. drop a link for your fans when you decide to start selling some of your older bikes.
Love it. I have epilepsy so I can't drive. I don't want to crash a big car and kill someone so idc. I live in northern Minnesota which sucks. Barely any laws on these guys. I could get to work with this 😁 can't get disability because I don't have enough seizures.
Bro!! I’m in the same exact position over here in PA . Stay strong!
Hope the best for you and happy holidays❤️ Stay safe!
I didn’t even know that people had to have a certain amount of seizures to be considered disabled I’m a disabled person with POTS ( search it up if you don’t know what it is!) Ik irrelevant but the main point of this comment is I didn’t know people had to have a certain amount of seizures!!
Isn’t it too cold for most of the year up there to be riding around an ebike
I knew a girl who had enough seizures that she wasn't allowed to drive after a car accident, so I didn't see her for a number of years and apparently she had brain surgery and for more than 15 years she never had another seizure and has a legal driver's license and a nice car now.
Bro so you got juiced joyrides and this channel?😅 Sick! I live in LA would be dope to link maybe I can buy a ebike off you, looking to replace my Evercross Beast✌😁
Always enjoy the content. Thanks man
I value your input more that any other e-bike reviewer. Will you do one on the Tesway X7 Pro please?
Looked very good as you were putting it together,... Thought "Ok make a seat adjuster" And it's a possibility. Comparing to my Bandit X-Trail Pro, It FAILED all around, Except maybe distance.
Hell yeah! Another XTP owner. I'm constantly comparing to mine and a lot don't stack up. I really like it. I ride mostly street and got street tread tires for christmas that I'm stoked to put on
I love this channel.. thank you for all that you do.👏👏
Great video and editing!!! Wheres the DOG CAMEO!!! 🐶🐶🐶
there's a pretty good dog cameo at the end of this weekends coming video with the Lectric One, was just up in Seattle in December too, lots of rain but filmed a ride to be posted later this month
@@TailHappyTV I thought I saw a picture of the Big Wheel LOL It wasn't raining that bad! I wish it would rain in LA. 😣😣😣
I'm 6'1" , and I would have to add an offset seat spacer 8 inches high and 3 inches to the rear.
Great Video!! and editing I love we can come here and watch yoir videos
Maan that battery life is nice I’d honestly prefer a bike that has smooth power delivery in stock form if this had the ability to make it accelerate harder in the settings it would be perfect for now I love my wallke h7 but as I can’t help it id love to get a e-bike with a bench seat one day
We already got the Goat 👀 This must be the Mule
Wow
You got footage just before the California BBQ
Thanks
Hi mate hope you and your family are all well regarding the fire in LA wish you all safe
all good, considering evacuating today due to all the smoke blowing here from the eaton fire, but no fires near me
Are you gonna review the ANIIOKI V7 yet????
It is a great price and since I am only 6' tall it would be about perfect for me. I prefer the 48v battery voltage. I need something like this for my needs here where I live.
"Not exactly thrilling." I also looked up the controller on their website: "Controller: 48V, 45A current limit, 12-tube controller" Sweet! Going old-school with a tube based controller.
With all those fires , how are you doing bro?
Everyone always says gearless hub motor not know for torque but the goat power bikes have same motor and have wayyyy more torque than almost every geard hub motor I see tested.. it just comes down to how many amps the controller is feeding to the motor tbh..
Will you be reviewing the segway xyber ebike coming on Jan 7.
Try putting the fender Hanger under the fender.
I think it should’ve traded 2-3 mph up top for some low end torque… that red light stop looks a little concerning especially for a bike not really meant to pedal.
Awesome looking and performing bike, which is why I really wish that "Laifook Thunder" logo on both sides wasn't there. It really spoils the otherwise beautiful lines and look of the bike.
Hi Matt, Are you ever concerned about battery fires? Especially with so many ebikes in your house. How long do you charge your batteries from a safety standpoint?
I’m not, but my rule is I only charge them while I’m home, and not while sleeping
Can you review the movcan v30 single battery bike
FreeGo has a 53Ah battery with a 1000 W motor in the back and a 1000 W motor on the front wheel . top speed of 42 mph. All-wheel-drive is excellent for climbing hills going through the sand very similar to this bike, but I do see freeGo as being better because of it’s all wheel
Drive it pulled me out of a deep ditch one time with no effort at all
$150 off and free shipping. Dang. I'll keep your videos for sure.
I wish I had invested in that 7 speed Shimano shifter!
Me too, they're on nearly every ebike I've seen, must be making a fortune.
@TailHappyTV what are your thoughts on using a higher amp charger vs whats supplied? Comes with a 2a but i want a 3a. Not this bike its for the H8.
I use a variable charger that I can set to any voltage between 42v and 88.8v... and between 2 and 15 amps
switching your 2 amp charger against a 3 amps is safe.. just works a bit faster
even 4 or 5 amp maybe could be used just see what your pack can take as max charge and stay a tiny bit below that for safety and cell life
if 3 amp is good enough for your needs then just buy one ...
check if it "cooks" the battery or if it switches off after full charge (2nd is a bit safer in my view ... 1st is a bit better for cell balancing at the end)
Looks great!
I NEED A REVIEW OF THE EMOVE ROADSTER
When I big guy reviewing an electric bike tells you it's heavy I would recommend riders under 165 lbs to steer clear. I purchased another eBike based on one of TailHappyTV's reviews but I didn't take him seriously when he said the Wallke H9 AWD was heavy. I paid $1800 for an eBike I hate to ride.
Wow what a rad looking long range bike I really like how cool and how it looks easy to ride hi cousin how are you all awesome bike
Thanks bruh, how about the svitch e bike from India 🇮🇳
you should review the ridstar Q20
Dude I just looked this bike is 5,000 originally now they have 56% off 2,200. I'm sorry buddy but I do not think that is budget friendly at all cool bike but definitely not budget-friendly.
A bike with these specs a few years ago was double the price. China is catapulting e-bikes into the space age.
And is heavy as crap and doesn't fold, i live in an apt and have a small sedan, so no thx on this
My Auloor is foldable and goes 32 mph and was only $699 thru Prime
@@YouAreLov3dYouAreEnough How heavy?
They know this bike wouldn't sell for $5000, so they're gonna pretend it's on sale for 50% off
Everything is not for everyone... @@YouAreLov3dYouAreEnough
I feel like that seat is gonna eventually rip up 😩and they dont sell a replacement it seems
Say no more I’ll take one, it has what I call the big boy seat right out of the box 😂, can it be registered for road use?
I don't hear or feel no Thunder with this bike.
What Laifook did you say?!
this looks awesome. I'd like one
mashallah❤❤❤first
Does anyone own one of these? I am curious how much maitinence it has to go through, it seems cheap for 50 AH.
Très très beau ce vélo dommage que je puisse pas le commander depuis la France enfin je suppose que je ne peux pas😮
Why is the acceleration so slow? Would be a great option otherwise, with 50AH and a top speed of 41. I just would hate to be at red lights on this bike
Nice and thorough review as always.
Do you do request reviews to? Hoe about reviewing the Akez King Kong? Around $1600 bike with 1500Wattt motor 48V and 41Ah battery.
Keep up the good work.
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱😁
Please do the range test
@tailhappytv
Very interested in something that you would consider worthwhile for forest service type roads. I enjoy the level price wise of the products you cover as well as the verity. Keep the reviews coming.
Comparing this to the other e-bikes (price, speed, display info ) you have reviewed, it's a hard pass! Thanks for the review!
What's the wattage? Maybe around 1kw?
website says 2000w with 3000w peak but with only 140nm of torque so not really good for that amount of watts..
@@howcanthinkman8519 I guess just as with cars, there's more to it than just HP (wattage) figures.
Thanks.
Getting one serviced or parts might be a challenge, too.
how many e bike do u have
Did you feel like Tom Hardy in the "Bike Riders" on that Low slung beast....?
If this was a 52v I would buy it immediately.
Why does it matter lol. There’s only a 10% difference between them.
The bike looks good!. There is no denying that. But, power wise, they wasted the opportunity to make it a great contender.
@@ramborambokitchenkitchen6357 it’s make a big difference
@@RedMag01 not really man, I have a 48v and 52v pack for my diy bike and the difference is +2.5mph on the top speed.
and it depends how the motor is made (kv value or rpm at a given voltage) ... if it's made for 48v.. sure it goes faster with 52 ... (why not use 60, 72, 84?!?)
my seeker 26 is a dualmotor dualbattery 52v 45Ah hill climber... but this one is more an emoto (e moped) as an Ebike
48v and 50Ah is a big pack (14s10p 5Ah cells??) ... if they now would sell a front motor kit with a 2nd controller ... THAT WOULD BE SUPERB
Dope Ammo Case Battery Pack🤣😂
This is what I need for work, but no way I can afford it!! 😢😢
Is that a battery or a briefcase?
Yes
Beatiful pero algo chica debiera estar también en rodada 24" o 26"
I want an E bike that requires hardly any pedalling it must be 1/3 dirt bike 1/3 trails bike and 1/3 road bike so l can get to a dirt bike track it must travel at least 80 klm.
One more thing it must be belt drive. Does such a bike exist? Is it out there?
E-Bike?? or emoto??
mopped style frame??(20 inch) or "normal" bike frame" (24 or 26 inch)
max speed?? is 32 or 38 or 41 miles per hour ok?
why belt driven?
mid drive or hub drive? if hub drive.. geared or gearless direct drive?
so many things to think about when selecting an Ebike...
🍻 thanks happy new year
Bro YES Im looking for similar bike. And the revv1 DRT is probably my next bike. Moped style/dirt bike style 52v 35-38mph and comfortable ASF! Only thing is not belt driven 😂
At what point does an ebike become a motorcycle? This is pretty close to that point.
At 6:38 I guess the Plant is ok. Droopy, but has green.
Please do a range test
He’s done range tests on 60ah ebikes and got 110 miles or thereabouts. This could probably do 90 miles ridden at normal city speeds.
Personally, i think the laws are all f'd the hell up, we just need define all vehicles by their total kinetic capacity. Like, theres light vehicles like these, and then theres vehicles that can do real carnage.
That price is insanely affordable🤔😳!
You should do a review on the Ridstar Q20 Pro, it’s a pretty cheap bike that has dual batteries (40ah total) and 2000w dual motor!
He doesn't buy these bikes, they are sent to him, so unless you can talk them into sending him one it probably isn't happening.
@@Mercstaro, I didn't know that. Thanks
That bike is suspiciously cheap for the spec that it has.
Just saw 2’kids near me riding them after Christmas 😂I’ll just ask them for a regiew
@@lrac_1 let me know how it goes if you actually do it, I’m considering getting one!
Yessss
It’s ok, but I’m happy with my Aniioki A8 Pro
The problem with those things dude is who's going to leave the house with that charger running
And you have to keep them lithium batteries at a certain state of charge
everybody's getting to know that
Good luck
Whea to bay EC ,m? 😊😊😊
Dude, you ok??
Got My Varun M26-2 For $480 Max Speed Is 32Mph
12:24 Says the motor is 48v 1200w. But to be honest I'm just surprised a 48v system can achieve 40+ mph.
A lot of higher end ebike controllers let you really crank the amps so assuming your motor and controller can handle the extra heat it should work
depends on how the motor is made (kv number or rpm per volt)
Nice bike but I couldn't cope with that Fooking name In the UK 😂...
Looks like motor goat has a competition
Happy Run G100 pro
Happy Run G100 pro
Not really
🐐💩 on Dafook
@@tonyholmes9024 your right Goat 60v 25ah 2000w/3000w $2599.
Happy Run G100 pro. 72v 30ah 3000/4000w. $2599.
I paid $2159 with avaiable discounts.
Sorry Goat. Love goat added a 50ah battery option but it cost almost as much as my entire G100 pro bike?????
3000 Watt (for short bursts)
21:55 your in GTA 5??
Street legal?
Yes it is street legal.
Good range but, I'll just stick with the h8 ebike
Just buy a surron bee ultra for less than 4000$ it has a 140km range at ~40kmh stock
Don't what to get a lic, ins, like a motorcycle and ins 2025 in ca anything over class 3 this is going to happen and mush have cranks so be careful what you buy unless you have a lic for motorcycles.
It’s not gonna happen dude, calm down.
go big...
I am pretty sure it is a 2000w motor, not a 3000w like you said.
3kw peak, 2kw nominal, he said
It’s not to my interest as o don’t like moped style bikes but could be a hoot fit for most
...so a ton of ebikes show up at your house or condo or whatever, and you rip and kick the box apart and then I assume you start recording video while you check out the bike and review it, etc..but over how long a period of time. So many reviews I feel fall short of some pretty crucial info, such as how long do the bikes last and the components last. It's so easy to review a brand new ebike. start actually helping people, and review e-bikes that are 3 years old, and help us decide which ones are the best value over time. Time is the most important aspect of investments.
Nope for that price just get the wired freedom
The battery almost justifies the price....almost
This bike may now be illegal to ride in California now that the new ebike law started on Jan 1, 2025. The throttle can't exceed 20MPH ...
Kenny G ??
*Suitcase on wheels. Get a better look at bikes with carriage motors and straps instead of chains.*
That big cheap generic battery is a fire hazard waiting to happen
Way too much stored energy, enough to take out multiple houses - no UL certification
Hard pass
It's the motor goat v3's fat cousin. Who laifook invited him over for Christmas dinner?! lol.
$2k is not budget.
It is these days
Hello I just wanted to to you that Jesus loves you and he wants a relationship with you. If you are willing to give your life to him and follow him then he will transform your life into something greater than you can ever imagine. Make sure to obey him and strive to be like him in all his ways and he will give you the gift of heaven. In Jesus' name I pray that you will accept him, Amen
Holy Spirit chasing some cash?
That's not a seat, that's a saddle! Not a battery either, that's a power plant! Good video
