If you have a DJI drone it would be good if you could pair it to the the bike so it would auto track with some preset angels and hieghts for super quick filming and also if your bike got stolen and you had the drone it would find it and tack film/pictures of the area and if someone was riding it?
That's what I'm hoping for. It's extremely difficult to ride a mountain bike, whilst being auto-tracked by a drone, without disturbing any of the many controls on a DJI controller.
I hear you and that would be a great feature but I think pretty all drone laws world wide say you have to be in control of the drone at all times and line of sight and all that crap! I know people do obviously use it with active track but from a company point of view they wouldn’t be able to do that!🤷🏼♂️
pretty sure it was confirmed in Robs previous video on the bike and specs that it already does all that (connecting to drones & action cameras) and will also transmit speed etc stats to their action camera
Between pinion, zf and dji, there will need to be a clear winner at some point and I agree that the pinion system is not just a performance improvement, it’s clearly new tech that actually solves a problem, maintenance. Needing to clean and re-lube the chain everytime you go on trail is a pain in the ass. Now it’s just a wash and you’re good to go. But they will need to figure out a way to match the dji/zf motor performances because at the end of the day, performance is the key indicator.
Great stuff Rob. Super interesting and really good looking bike. Possible my next bike dependning on service avalibility here in Sweden etc. Maybe DJI will be a strong software developer for ebikes and future software updates could bring new functions, like using the screen on the frame for gps navigation would bee great.
@@chuckduck Yes and no... there are way more last generation bikes (of every discipline) on Aliexpress/Alibaba/Temu then there are of current geometry bikes that are oem from these same manufacturers and their subsidiaries...
Hey Rob, for future videos with new motors (or even some known motors) can you state the crank mounting type for those who want to swap to shorter or longer cranks. I had to order FORX (which I love but they were imported to the US from AUS) because Fazua's mounting is different that the others... Great looking bike. I wish this was in my Heckler SL =(....

0:55 Worth noting its the most powerful 250w* rated motor on the market. Bafang has multiple offerings that are more powerful, but are above that 250w rating
@@mfrfpv9079 The Ebike has wireless GPS, LTE and Bluetooth. Honestly as many sensors as drones too. If DJI wanted to stop this bike from moving or block it with Geo fences, They could. Anything that transmits is talking about being banned so that's why it's a sensitive topic here.
@RobRidesEMTB you promised us a video review of using it out on the trails/wild, when is this coming? Me and 1,00,000 others very keen to see that! Thanks heaps
This is super interesting. I’m very excited about it. However, the most important thing to me is how they intend to service and support it. I can take a Bosch ebike into any bike shop, and they can work on it, or apply for warranty replacement and such. Will DJI/Amflow have a dealer portal that’s also open to other bike shops? How exactly does it work?
well at least they have an extensive network providing warranty support all over the world for their DJI drones. Fantastic service from my experience. Can imagine they'll handle it ok.
I hope that keypad feature has an extra feature to randomize the buttons. Walk past any building with keypad locks, and you can VERY quickly identify the numbers needed to unlock it.
@@Ferdigrapher Sure, but since most of those things will have a 4 number pin (like the lockscreen on your phone), even with 4 different numbers, that's still 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 different combinations - so 24. As opposed to 1,000 without that info. And if it doesn't have good lockout protections, it's VERY easy to punch in 24 different combinations as well. This isn't rocket science or brain surgery - it's basic security. It being a touch screen doesn't make it magically immune to these things.
@@Ferdigrapher It would be a very good idea to talk to people who do actual hands-on security research (which is definitely not me). It is mind blowing to watch videos of professionals who specialize in this kind of stuff basically waltz through stuff that LOOKS really secure, and even more so when they then point out things like "it is currently 2018 and this has been an issue since 1992".
Well not everyone can afford a top of the line product but a lot of people can. For every complaint there are 20x the purchases. There are cheap products available on the market if money is an issue.
DJI looks to have the best integrated system. Sad of all those others that been doing it for years with several generations and still got a 5bar battery indicator, seems so antiquated, LOL. DJI just blew out every emtb maker. This is like when the Iphone came out and BlackBerry had its pants down.
Must be super expensive since this is another hype video with no mention of pricing. Not “pricing isn’t available yet” just no mention like money isn’t a factor.
wonderful bike. you said a long ride or short super fast rides but i read it will only put out the equivalent nominal 250 watts to remain legal . does that mean the top assisted speed is 15mph?
On the AMFlow website it now lists the PL model as having a peak power of 850W and 105Nm, have they reduced the max power available from this motor at the top-end or is this a derated model?
The law says that the average power output can't be over 250w over a certain period of time, right? So does that mean that this motor would crank out the power for a while and then drop down to a much lower power state to stay within the rules?
I'd be interested to know how that is worked out. the 250w is average power but almost all motors make well over that in peak power, so there must be some way that the 250w average is achieved.
@@streddaz Yeah agreed. Sometimes when I’m doing a continuous climb I feel like the motor power cuts back a bit on power after a while but if it gives me 600 watts (Bosch Gen 4 is what I have) for x amount of time then it would have to drop to well below 250watts in order for the average to work out to 250. I feel like the 250 rule needs to be amended to allow for higher average power. Maybe 500watts and 1000 watts peak?
@@The.JZA. will never happen unless you want to pay taxes have a license plate on the bike wear a real motorcycle helmet and be required to have a driving license for it emtb are already illegal motorbikes even at 250w, the current laws are the best they could make to stop ebikes from going wild, the rate of accident and injuries already skyrocketed in 2-3 years with ebikes without limitations it would be deat instead
Rob, I know that someone in the US government is trying to pass a bill that would essentially render DJI drones inoperable in the United States. I see the reasoning for separating DJI and AMFLOW. But, any idea if this would still impact the bike itself or the system from being sold in America?
The software features are really great. In the end, the motor is also limited to 250 watts. What remains is a relatively light package 100-300g lighter than the competition. 
I think the ratings are a bit like Japan’s gentleman agreement of 276 horsepower. Some cars like the GTR say 276hp, but they actually do closer to 350. 250w is just its nominal rating. If it’s capable of 1000w peak power in 30 second bursts, then you’ll never be wanting for power
What about the exo's... no one talks abou the exo's...put in a 38 and a pair dh casing tyres + pedals an you have 22kg. No doubt the system is great im also very happy to see it coming out, but we have to be honnest, fair and put all the cards on the table. 😊
Is this bike legal on uk roads or is it too powerful? It will be good when manufactures start using this motor in cheaper bikes . This bike starts at £7000+
just one thing...because the bike is done in M-L-XL-XXL size why not use a rear shock and cinematic with a ratio under 2.5 even 2 will be good to not blow off the rear shock...
I'm just waiting for DJI to announce next that this new Avinox motor will allow bike's to hover for safe landings, just like their drones, especially if you launch jumps like a dead sailor and are heading for a collarbone breaker 😆. Seriously though Rob Rides EMTB, this new tech looks absolutely ground breaking and will sure make anyone currently building (or buying) a lightweight, low power SL emtb to think again. I mean, 19kgs for a full fat 120 nm, 1000w emtb? Hell yes! SL's are officially dead.
My bike uses all off the shelf parts that can be purchased from a variety of vendors. I also don't need a tracking app on my phone to use it. Lastly, it's made in the USA. Your move sir.
Lmao. Dengfu makes tons of frames, and they’re going to look similar to other frames on the market. There’s not a lot you can do to make it truly unique
All very technically advanced but Do we really need more power than 90Nm and does lightweight actually matter. Don't forget TQ first had a 120Nm motor in a Hiabike that faded away. If they were really forward thinking it would be very silent and have a manual change Rohloff hub, belt drive with tucked in front tensioner .Alternatively they should have gone down the excellent Revonte twin motor automatic type system path. We need to say" Goodbye Derailleur" but without the coffee grinder uphill sound of the Pinion MGU. E=Mtb²
To be honest as a Dutchie the display looks cool but totally ineffective you need to look down for changing things on the screen quite dangerous to be honest. The best place is putting in in eyesight on the steer.
I do less than 400miles/year of muscular mtb it didn't stop me from making a 60miles 4773ft mountain up and down recently with less than 100miles of training oh and I'm 25% overweight I can do it but I'm destroyed for 24hrs after that I rented emtb twice 1st one mostly flat around a lake 43miles going in eco mode coming back in turbo mode felt like I did nothing no sweat not tired, 2nd time up and down 1 mountain + another mountain pass 6600ft ascent ! this time yes I was tired and ran out of battery right before parking but like the 1st time a few hours later it felt as if I did nothing, emtb are motorbikes anyone that tell you otherwise isn't honest on that last rental most of the ascent were 1:3 33% or 1:2 50% slopes most of them on dirt or grass not roads or mtb trails but pedestrian hiking trails there's absolutely no way you can do this on muscle power emtb are great fun but it's not sport it's recreational entertainement, on strong motors the pedaling is just pretend 25kph 15mph is almost your minimum speed because in 2-3 pedal push you're already at that and that's all you'll see unless you climb, and in fact on our 1st flat road rental our average speed was 16.7mph above the limiter we were shocked by how easy it was and were constanly over-pedaling the bike, note that I didn't say I didn't want one I actually do but as a "green" legal and silent motorbike that will allow me to go on mountain trails that were too remote to reach without one, I hike a lot but sometimes the trails are too easy and long for regular walking an emtb would make more sense
@@fredEVOIX you arent going fast enough, the upper body workout is noticeable on proper terrain , to get the full effect that you are missing you could be peddling with the same effort as a conventional but going faster , you are riding it like a conventional bike climbing at 15kmph instead of on the limiter at 25 and doing the same number of laps in 1 hour as you would in two normally. Its ok though , no one is forcing you to get an ebike and if you do invest use it as you wish , its yours to benefit from as you want if it makes sense to you, the same way my bike is mine to be that spark that returns the fun to the sport. Yes it is a motor bike by definition and its the perfect balance allowing it to ride any trail unlike a yz426 which you couldn't compare a (250w) ebike to . I love seeing regular people able to enjoy the forest with me through an ebike, some become hard core riders from an achievable start into the sport, other rely on the motor for life , so what.
First I‘ve not studied mechanical engineering but even if it is plastic it is maybe possible because they are only part of the planetary gear and the force gets distributed to all the 3 gearing wheels. Maybe it only looks like plastic due to the color. Would be interesting to know what it really is
DJI make some of the best electric motors on the planet. I really wouldn't worry too much about their quality, even then I'm sure their customer service will be top notch.
Owning a Greyp emtb since 2020 that already had all this features even more with an embedded eSIM. Unfortunately, brand closed their doors. Ok it's DJI and I trust all electronics is well implemented. I think they bet the success of this bike on the powerful motor primarily. Let's talk about reliability in 18-24 months and see what will be fixed in Gen 2 version. Non removable battery (to save weight I suppose) is simply a nogo for me!
You guys breifly talked about 'other players in the game' While this is true, Modern pricing gets destroyed because of it, the more guys there are you used to see a fight for lower pricing, now its about pumping out new stuff and all the pricing is extremely high to make up for lack of market share....
I can’t believe this is the first time the features that they added are coming out. This is amazing.
Can't wait to see these in the wild !!! I would love a 250 Whr range extender for a kilowatt+ trail beast.

Wow who woulda thought DJI. Sick looking bike too.
I would like to see DJI tackle an integrated motor gearbox next.
yep or a rohloff or pinion version would be enough :)
ZF’s next offering will probably be a contender also. That’s their forte.
The waiting list to buy one of these will be insane. I’ll be on it haha
It looks a great system so far.
I will say tho the pinion system appeals to me a lot and i think thats the way the industry will go.

I do less than 400miles/year of muscular mtb it didn't stop me from making a 60miles 4773ft mountain up and down recently with less than 100miles of training oh and I'm 25% overweight I can do it but I'm destroyed for 24hrs after that I rented emtb twice 1st one mostly flat around a lake 43miles going in eco mode coming back in turbo mode felt like I did nothing no sweat not tired, 2nd time up and down 1 mountain + another mountain pass 6600ft ascent ! this time yes I was tired and ran out of battery right before parking but like the 1st time a few hours later it felt as if I did nothing, emtb are motorbikes anyone that tell you otherwise isn't honest on that last rental most of the ascent were 1:3 33% or 1:2 50% slopes most of them on dirt or grass not roads or mtb trails but pedestrian hiking trails there's absolutely no way you can do this on muscle power emtb are great fun but it's not sport it's recreational entertainement, on strong motors the pedaling is just pretend 25kph 15mph is almost your minimum speed because in 2-3 pedal push you're already at that and that's all you'll see unless you climb, and in fact on our 1st flat road rental our average speed was 16.7mph above the limiter we were shocked by how easy it was and were constanly over-pedaling the bike, note that I didn't say I didn't want one I actually do but as a "green" legal and silent motorbike that will allow me to go on mountain trails that were too remote to reach without one, I hike a lot but sometimes the trails are too easy and long for regular walking an emtb would make more sense
@@fredEVOIX you arent going fast enough, the upper body workout is noticeable on proper terrain , to get the full effect that you are missing you could be peddling with the same effort as a conventional but going faster , you are riding it like a conventional bike climbing at 15kmph instead of on the limiter at 25 and doing the same number of laps in 1 hour as you would in two normally. Its ok though , no one is forcing you to get an ebike and if you do invest use it as you wish , its yours to benefit from as you want if it makes sense to you, the same way my bike is mine to be that spark that returns the fun to the sport. Yes it is a motor bike by definition and its the perfect balance allowing it to ride any trail unlike a yz426 which you couldn't compare a (250w) ebike to . I love seeing regular people able to enjoy the forest with me through an ebike, some become hard core riders from an achievable start into the sport, other rely on the motor for life , so what.
Lots of plastic cogs inside the motor according to a video on the AMFLOW site. How durable I wonder?
First I‘ve not studied mechanical engineering but even if it is plastic it is maybe possible because they are only part of the planetary gear and the force gets distributed to all the 3 gearing wheels. Maybe it only looks like plastic due to the color. Would be interesting to know what it really is
@@dennis.lc8407 They remind me of the plastic cog inside the early Tongsheng that wore down and people replaced with a more durable metal cog.
DJI make some of the best electric motors on the planet. I really wouldn't worry too much about their quality, even then I'm sure their customer service will be top notch.
@@dennis.lc8407 I think DJI stated it was tested to 50,000 km. So basically it'll outlast the bike..
It should be put in a test side by side with shimano ep801
You can get an instant notification via LTE or Bluetooth telling you that you don't have an e-bike anymore...
But at least you'll have GPS tracking through LTE until the thieves figure out how to disable it.
Owning a Greyp emtb since 2020 that already had all this features even more with an embedded eSIM. Unfortunately, brand closed their doors. Ok it's DJI and I trust all electronics is well implemented. I think they bet the success of this bike on the powerful motor primarily. Let's talk about reliability in 18-24 months and see what will be fixed in Gen 2 version.
Non removable battery (to save weight I suppose) is simply a nogo for me!
ha - these days when I ride my peddle bike around all these Ebikes i feel like im riding a horse and buggy in a nascar race
Wow, I can't believe the 1000w model is only £1100
how much £$??
Shiit it was not my greatest decision to get flat mortgage a few months ago
I need this bike)
How much does it cost?
You guys breifly talked about 'other players in the game' While this is true, Modern pricing gets destroyed because of it, the more guys there are you used to see a fight for lower pricing, now its about pumping out new stuff and all the pricing is extremely high to make up for lack of market share....
how noisy is the motor?
Projected price?
Would be cool if you could have integrated Garmin on the bike given its got GPS.
