    The coolest thing for me isn't that 1000w Turbo mode.
    I don't need more Power as a Bosch Cx Gen 4 (its power is easily enough for me)
    But the Coolest thing is it looks like a Light-Emtb but with a Full Power Motor and a Large Battery🎉

    Honestly this is great. Push the industry forward, and make established brands shake in their boots. Im an SL light assist MTB guy. Personally I don’t care about full power, and I don’t care about the range as much. I look for the best descending bike period and if it happens to have the motor I want, great. That’s obviously not realistic for many people.
    I just want reliability, descending capability, and lightweight e-bikes. And what a world it would be if they didn’t cost so dang much money.

    Haha, Steve was right! The competition is shaking in their boots! This bike redefines e-bikes and a lot of people in the bike industry suddenly have a lot of inventory that is simply outdated.
    I have watched Steve ride now for several years on this channel and his top move to show the bikes off is an uphill wheelie as he hits a switchback. Notice how he is riding at least twice as far as other videos. He looks like a kid again! In the past that move would suck quite a bit of energy out of him on other e-bikes. On this bike even if the front hits the ground he is right back up again charging the mountain. The bike is obviously brilliant. If DJI offers a strong competitive warranty the bikes will sell fast. I have a specialized and my motor has been replaced, the warranty made all the difference and my opinion of them is still high even with a failed motor for a week.

    I just got a new Tern Orox (Bosch gen 4) and I barely use its turbo mode. Yet to load it with heavy cargo to see how it affects motor power, but as much I like the whole thing, I find a few parts quite clunky. The battery and its mount feel like a handmade by a local mechanic 😅 the plastic parts aren't really aligning for a quality product. That Amflow charging port you showed seems quite a bit of step up, it's not just the power to weight ratio of this bike. I'm really really excited for the future of ebikes and I also hope these brands get forced by the EU to align some of their components like chargers and their ports, batteries, etc. There has been enough time for these major brands to mature and become confident and the market seems to be still growing.

    Thanks for the review. So I watched it, then I took my 2 year old turbo levo out for a 26 mile trail ride and here's what I thought. 1. I don't need any more power. Today was a recovery day for me so I kept my HR under 120 and climbed over 2400 feet and had plenty of power. 2. My turbo's range is fine since I can ride at nearly full power for 2.5 hours. That's all I need. And 3. the bike handles fantastic even at 53 pounds. There was one section where I had to lift the bike through a rock garden where I would appreciate a lighter bike. But the point is that I don't need the additional power of the Amflow PL even climbing rocky technical sections. I'm not convinced the performance improvements are as significant as you claim, at least not for my needs.

      I have a 2023 Levo SL that I always ride in Trail mode at 75% power with the Range Extender for 480Wh total. I also don't need more power, any feature I can't ride up in Trail (or extended grade >25%), I just hike-a-bike. I always ride with an HR monitor, too. I can get 5000 ft climbing and 30 miles with my current setup. Never timed that max range (only hit it once), but did 4000 ft and 16 miles in 2 hours yesterday and still had 1/3 battery left. But I would sell my Levo SL and get the Amflow for the larger battery to extend my range.

    It’s the max power and torque that separate DJI from competition. Weight -wise it’s more like evolution and not revolution: DJI motor (105 Nm) 2.5 kg, EP801 (max 85 Nm): 2.7 kg. Same kind of evolution in battery weight. The low weight of the complete bike is due to Amflow making extremely light frame and using carbon rims etc gaining maximum impact in the media with ”next level” power/weight ratio. This has impact on the bike price.
    At least I don’t need more power. Lower cost for a lighter bike with 60-85 Nm assist would be welcome

    I have a nukeproof megawatt and I haven't found a climb I can't do yet and my motor powers me up climbs, it all goes on how hard you can pedal the motor and your fitness, I'd love to challenge them strava times, as for technical uphill I've been looking for something to compete in in the uk. Is there any races going?

    To those claiming this is an ad... Well, creating content isn't free. Like other channels, EMBN needs revenue, and manufacturers need visibility and communication. It's clear to me that EMBN has contracts (partnerships, call them what you will) with various manufacturers. I assume EMBN has negotiated annual agreements with DJI (and other manufacturers). This is a win-win for both. There must be a plan with a precise schedule and a set number of videos, which DJI compensates financially. In return, EMBN benefits from information, trips, and bike tests from DJI, which form the basis for producing the videos. These videos then attract viewers, securing the business. Is the content objective, fair, and honest? I believe it is. EMBN needs to build trust with viewers, and providing inaccurate information would be destructive. Now, as always, it's all about communication. You highlight the good points and not the others. So, there will be more videos about this DJI bike at the most beneficial timing for DJI. This isn't bad at all, and I'm curious to watch them.

    These are the problems for me: In the end of 2018 (6 years !!) came the Levo S-works with 90nm motor, 700wh battery, 20kg in tubeless setup, so no quantum leap for me with the Amflow. I never want to use the turbo mode when i ride in the hills, because it draws the battery very fast, so i go up slow in eco or trail mode, i do not want to wheelie up the hill. It's like with 700bhp electric cars, you have fun once or twice with the acceleration, but for daily driving you are using like 30-50bhp... Back to the weight: it has carbon rims, EXO and EXO+ tires and other lightweight parts. For a bike the only different to other ebikes are the motor-battery-frame. You can not change these things. And these are lighter like 1-2 kilos to other carbon high power bike, so not that much. But i really like the real fast charger.

      @@neszoljalbe Still I find no evidence for getting it to 20kg. 21kg more realistic. Regarding other features: GPS & LTE (and all features coming with that), USB-C PD65W power output, very silent motor up & down, great display, integration and ergonomics... This might seem small things, and mindblowing they are not already on every system... Overall this system is 3-4 years ahead of anything currently on the market.

      @@dit4963 I am not against this bike/system, but in this "test" it is said that 'very much a revolutionary product'. Yes it is a bit lighter, a bit more powerful, a bit larger display, gps/lte (has the Bosch Connectmodule too). For me the Pinion MGU is more of a revolution with all its flaws (more weight, noisy). This video hipes the bike too much. In other videos it is said, that the motor can rattle, and in high power mode it has whining noise (but not as much as Bosch or Shimano). And the real weight in size L with 800wh battery is 20,6 kg. But the biggest question is the warranty support. Lets face it, everything can break down and will break down.

    If being fastest up the hill was so important, then we'd all currently be riding Rocky Mountain ebikes. Yet RM isn't a particularly big player. So even though DJI has a well-earned reputation, I think it's going to take some considerable time for their motor to become established - unless perhaps they can partner with an established bike brand.
