I have the Biktrix Juggernaut classic duo, same price range as the adventure 2 but it has a middrive. Ebikes are ABSOLUTELY worth it, but only if its legal where you hunt. In KY they are legal anywhere that a normal bike is legal.
I use my ebike in Florida on WMA's, on vehicle roads or existing trails. But the best benefit I get from it is: I can park my truck 1-2 miles from my entry point to public land hunt , lock it just out of sight of the road, and no other hunters will think " Wow. What a great place for me and all my buddies to go hunt"!! Very good video, thanks!
I really love to buy one. The problem is I hate getting punch in my way. Is there any punch proof or airless tire available? Consider it that I might be pessimistic 😅.
Good thought, your probably right, though I think the extra weight would still be a challenge unless you can rig up a tow point below the center of gravity. A trailer has less pulling resistance and they are usually designed to not effect your balance.
The PA game commission ebike vote turnaround in the 11th hr back in 2018 shows how corrupt they are after they intially had voted in favor of ebike use
I used to mob going 25 mph on my diamondback traditional bike, and maintain an easy 10mph uphills, how are these motorized bikes performing equal to a regular bike, are people that out of shape that they need a motor just to go normal biking speeds?
First, this bike will do 28 on flat trails or even slight uphill grades. While you may be stronger than I am, I have never been able to maintain 28 miles per hour on a slight uphill grade for 5 miles as I have with this bike. Second, some folks have uses for an e-bike that have nothing to do with speed or their physical condition. As my channel is primarily a hunting channel that is the nature of this review. Hunters may want to access their hunting spot quietly and with minimal effort to keep from sweating, while also carrying a backpack, a treestand and a gun or bow. Third, some people do have physical disabilities that would make the assistance of a motor very beneficial. And finally. My e-bike weighs 75lbs so it’s a whole different classification than a lightweight MTB. E-bikes are also regulated in their top speed. I’m convinced if the max speed restriction was removed from this bike, it would be capable of doing much faster than 28mph.
If I were going to use an e-bike for hunting/fishing I would probably get a trike. I have thirty-five years experience riding and racing mountain bikes and am finally wimping out. Strokes suck you can't balance as well
Where I hunt it's too steep. I did take my regular fat bike on my friend land and rode the bike back down the hill to his truck once but we had to do a lot of chainsawing to get the bike through. You are not supposed to use a chainsaw on public land which is where I do most of my hunting. I can hunt private land but I have to shoot a big buck no small ones are allowed unless you have never shot a buck before. I would rather save the big bucks for the guy that owns the land and his kids. I'd feel like a d-head if I shot a nice buck plus you can't eat antlers.
I think e-bikes are best for access on existing trails, logging roads and other relatively clear access areas. Unfortunately, that’s not legal on public land here.
I'm in wisconsin and they are illegal. By all means anything 750 watts or less with pedals should be legal. It's bullshit I'm 52 and my brother is 63 , getting to our spots on public land is a chore for us. I'm going to start to find out how I can get the laws changed it will add time to my life to hunt where I want too.

Hey that's a great point.
Nice, honest review.
Thanks!
I feel like it would be awesome for scouting and staying covert during the hunting season. BTW, nice hoodie. What brand?
TrueTimber hoodie. Showed it my recent truetimber camo video (part 3.

I have been pretty rough on mine and havent had an issue, but I guess there is always a chance.
I think a jet sled would enable you to pull out pretty much any deer with that bike

Sounds like a great plan if you have good wide trails to ride on!

get a used e-moto, plenty of them for sales
Recently I have been seeing good deals on all kinds of different e-bikes on market place.
