I need help - i bought a QuietKat Ibex (basically the rubicon package with a different body style) and i want to know how the quality of the Aventon vs the QuietKat because i spent 4-5k more on the QuietKat. is the QuietKat worth 4-5k More?
One thing that a lot of these reviews don't take into account (likely because it's a bit niche) is that the Aventon Aventure (what I have) is actually a little different than the Rad Rover and at least a few others that I've seen in that it has a true cassette in the rear. I have upgraded mine to an 11 speed 11-51t cassette and SRAM derailuer, which has improved shifting and enabled climbing even steeper hills. It doesn't have a whole lot in the way of "proprietary" components, aside from the battery casing and the controller, which is great from a maintenance standpoint.
I have a 2018 RadRover. I ride exclusively street. A little over 4000mi. on this beast. I did many mods on this thing, but kept the drivetrain bone-stock(batt., motor, etc..) The mods are strictly cosmetic and it looks more an old-school motorcycle now. I have had no problems with it at all. Love it!!!
I think your reviews should include customer support experience as witnessed by peoples comments on forums etc. For instance the Aventon bikes have been reported to have serious on delivery problems and very poor customer support.
Let’s not sleep on the Class 3 Ariel Rider Kepler, boasting a 52 volt, 1000 watt motor, and 32 mph top speed. Can’t wait to see your performance test review on it.

Purchased one of the last QuietKat Ridge Runners. The Jeep model was just being sold at the time. Looked the same to me😀. Bought the less pricey one. 1000w, absolutely love this machine. It is a lot bigger in person than looking at it on the website.
A lot of these bikes top out at 6" - 4" for rider height. I'm 6' - 5" and wondering if I could get by with that by adding a longer seat post and raising the bars a bit.
always go more power than what you think you need, most people will always end up upgrading power output and battery size especially if they plan to make their e-bike their main form of transport, me personally i started with 1000w hub an very quickly within 3 months upgraded to a 1250w mid-drive difference was night an day i also went from 48v 10ah battery to 2x 48v 25ah batteries an did over 6000miles with it hauled all kinds of things from daily shopping to camping gear to an iron v8 engine block on a trailer lol, i now have an 1800w motor that i've done just over 9000 miles with an looking at upgrading to 72v batteries

I'm wondering how different the height of the pedal is from the ground and is this an issue when turning? I love the performance of the RAD Rover but I don't have the strength to manhandle that weight into storage or even on to a bike rack. So looking at the RAD Expand 5 or Lectric 3.0 . I already hold my pedals so they are both horizontal to the surface when I turn, but wondering if this could be an issue on these smaller bikes?
Would be very interested to see how you think the Juiced Ripcurrent S compares to this group. I was close to buying an Aventure before coming across the RCS, which seems to be worth the extra cost.
I have had a Ripcurrent for two years - it has been absolutely solid. The Kickstand finally gave out but other than that I have never had any issues and the bike has over 3000 miles on it. I highly recommend it over at least 3 bikes on this list. I have gone through a rad and an original Lectric - the rad just fell apart - every day something new would just not work anymore - horrible experience... and the Lectric I just beat the hell out of and put it through things it didn't deserve so I think their bikes are solid but the Juiced is many steps above both.

If you're climbing hills a fat tire is the last thing you need. I have lots of hills and I'm swapping my 2.8s knobbies for 2.0s all weathers to get some more speed and range. Also, most of the customers for these kinds of bikes are not looking for performance, just looks.

Awesome roundup, but where's the Himiway Zebra? Was it perhaps omitted because the time of the review or perhaps because of the "non-production" front chainring from the review?
We reviewed a few Burley trailers a while back where we pulled kiddos around. Most e-bikes should be able to handle that task on flat roads just fine, and some better than others on hills. Just remember that most trailer manufacturers like Burley advise you not to exceed 15 mph.
lol doubt you ever will find any dealer, try washing your bike down straight away with products like "salt away" found in most boating stores and dielectric grease on all your electric connections but remember salt water destroys everything once you beach it it's life span is shortened massively
I too am looking at aluminum foldable E bikes that have a decent tire size for sand; I go out to islands that are great for bike riding but I need a foldable bike to fit on my boat, and it has to be semi corrosion resistant. I found a few on Amazon; not trying to spend 5000 bucks on a bike either.😂

Yeah I’m 6’3 205/lbs and that seems to be the perfect bike to use as a commuter bike to work… and also the only bike that I’ve seen someone my height ride it comfortably. I wish they made one that topped out at 45/mph range just so I could keep up with traffic if need be but I’m not buying it for speed. Most importantly is braking, suspension and then comfort in that order. Onyx looks like it would be perfect but I’m not sure it would be a good fit size wise

Look at the Himiway Cobra. It's the only one we've tested with a claimed 400 lbs payload capacity, and it was quite fun. electricbikereport.com/himiway-cobra-review/
the best fat tire e bike is the biktrix juggernaut dual drive 2,000 watts of power 360 nm of torque and a motorcycle drive on the driver side for 40 mph speed... $5,000 for early adopters and $6,000 at release the performance can't be matched for that price currently with any other bike I've looked nothing here can match it I wish you guys would get one to review but it may be hard to get one before it releases in the summer
Would be an interesting one to review. Feels more motorcycle than e-bike though given all the specs you just listed, so we'd have to change up our review format a little if we got to test one out.
@@SoldierBoy3064 ehh, going 40+ MPH and being that powerful makes it feel less like a bike. It will also make it a lot more dangerous than your regular ebike and would require more investment in safety devices compared to an ebike that makes out at 20MPH.

I would like to see some serious reporting on some areas you don't touch on right now. SENIORS CUSTOMER SERVICE WARRANTYS LOCAL REPAIR SHOP SUPPORT DIY REPAIR SUPPORT UPGRADES - e.g. Mechanical to Hydraulic Brakes, Batteries, etc. Your reports are good but could be so much more informative and better !!!
oh ps, be very careful buying electrics with their own unique parts like controllers etc if they go out of business as many have and do then you are stuck with a paper weight as you can no longer get replacement parts, go with brands that have been around a long time and have good parts supply behind them like bafang the after market support is huge with not only factory parts but a lot of upgraded parts made by many different companies (BBSHD for example), cyclone is another
I own the Lectric XP 2 . Customer support is outstanding. I have 800 miles on mine , the only issue was keeping the headset top nut tight. Love the bike.
I did not see any pedals being used other than to set shoes upon. None of the reviewing/evaluating goes into how well the supplemental pedal assist actually works. It appears that the majority of "fat tire" e-bikes prefer to provide no physical effort, and just cruise regardless of the terrain. Obviously, there is a market for this "very limited" form of exercise, and it is better than just sitting. A good lighter e-mountain bike would provide the best of both worlds. Fat tire e-bikes are popular with seniors in home parks in states like Arizona. Due to the speeds of class 2 and 3 e-bikes, nearly 50% of senior purchasers make at least one trip to the emergency services at hospitals in metro Phoenix during first 3- 5 weeks of ownership.
Two Rad bikes? Lazy or paid off? Rad bikes are pedestrian as far as quality and that's after 2 or 3 years of low quality junk. You said "best" fat tire bikes and the Surface 604 Himiway Cruiser and the QuietKats are acceptable but where is the Juiced Bikes, where is the Ariel Rider? There are a LOT of high quality fat tire e-bikes and Rad does not belong on any best list.
We haven't had Juiced or Ariel Rider bikes in for testing and review yet. We stuck to bikes we've reviewed for this video. Rad bikes are good value too, but different opinions isn't a bad thing.
@@ElectricBikeReport the Rambo Rooster is the better version of the Radrunner. More features considered extras on the Rad and better tubing and welding. You need to stop drinking Rad wine. There are bikes out Radding the Rad.
We hope to review some Sondors bikes soon. FWIW, when people reach out to companies saying that want to see an Electric Bike Report review it really does help us get bikes in. It's always worth saying something on their social media pages, or a direct email. We'd happily take a look at the LX if we can get one in!
Wait you just did the best fat tire e bikes of 2022 and your telling me there wasn’t one bike from Juiced that was up to standards of these other bikes across all categories LOL stop it

It appears that the majority of "fat tire" e-bikes prefer to provide no physical effort, and just cruise regardless of the terrain. Obviously, there is a market for this "very limited" form of exercise, and it is better than just sitting. A good lighter e-mountain bike would provide the best of both worlds.
Fat tire e-bikes are popular with seniors in home parks in states like Arizona. Due to the speeds of class 2 and 3 e-bikes, nearly 50% of senior purchasers make at least one trip to the emergency services at hospitals in metro Phoenix during first 3- 5 weeks of ownership.
Two Rad bikes? Lazy or paid off? Rad bikes are pedestrian as far as quality and that's after 2 or 3 years of low quality junk. You said "best" fat tire bikes and the Surface 604 Himiway Cruiser and the QuietKats are acceptable but where is the Juiced Bikes, where is the Ariel Rider? There are a LOT of high quality fat tire e-bikes and Rad does not belong on any best list.
We haven't had Juiced or Ariel Rider bikes in for testing and review yet. We stuck to bikes we've reviewed for this video. Rad bikes are good value too, but different opinions isn't a bad thing.
@@ElectricBikeReport the Rambo Rooster is the better version of the Radrunner. More features considered extras on the Rad and better tubing and welding. You need to stop drinking Rad wine. There are bikes out Radding the Rad.
Fat tire electric bikes are changing the way people ride. Check out these American made fat tire electric bikes at FattE Bikes!
No Bakcou? How can anyone take this serious without the best of the best involved.

They made an appearance on the written list.
Why do you never test Sondors bikes?? Specifically the LX. When I purchased I paid $2000. Probably would win this
We hope to review some Sondors bikes soon. FWIW, when people reach out to companies saying that want to see an Electric Bike Report review it really does help us get bikes in. It's always worth saying something on their social media pages, or a direct email. We'd happily take a look at the LX if we can get one in!
Biktrix best long range cruiser..Rambo best hunting bike. You have lost a lot of cred here.
Wait you just did the best fat tire e bikes of 2022 and your telling me there wasn’t one bike from Juiced that was up to standards of these other bikes across all categories LOL stop it

"..as this bike's name 'segg-justs'.."
I've got a segg-justion: Proofread your script before going on-camera, Ron Burgundy 😂 Or look into managing dickslessia 🤣
Also, kudos to your co-host for not breaking character / keeping a straight face for that egregious blunder 👍🏻
NORCO and MOOSE are two canadian FAT BIKES that are in many ways MUCH BETTER than anything you’ve got there, please guys you must check those. Almost to a superior level…. Norco is reknown with it’s numerous prizes among « mountain bikes designs of the year ».
best
these aren't e-bicycles anymore but e-motorcycles with pedals. The e-bicycle market has been slowly moving to absurdity .
Cry more.
Awd ebikes are barely beginning
I expect at least Himiway Zebra/Cobra or Cobra Pro. I don't know what is wrong with these 3 models.

The written list includes alternates. We have the Cobra there. The Zebra needs a larger chain ring as it's a pretty big drawback. And we hope to test the Cobra Pro soon, but we haven't tested it ourselves yet.
Are u kidding me no magicycle on this list smh
DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE OF BUYING A POLARNA.
ACCUSING "CUSTOMER SERVICE" WHEN RECEIVING DEFECTIVE BATTERY.
ENTIRE SUMMER WASTED TRYING TO GET THE BIKE FUNCTIONAL.
COMPANY
DEMANDING VIDEO SHOWING REPLACEMENT OF USELESS PARTS.

Looks the same as Averton.
You must be paid to say that. 645watt hrs. Really...
YOu go on and on about the long distance ebike and never tell us the damn distance. It's 60 miles.
What is this a rad bike commercial? Disappointed in your reviews.. narrow review here!
WARNING ⚠️
DO not make the mistake of buying a POLARNA!!!!!!¡!!!!!
You guys have too many trolls following you.
