im about 250lbs and here in the united Kingdom i have an engwe engine x that complies with regulations here in Europe. it has 55nm of torque which is enough and dual suspension and is a really comfy cruiser. Those 20 by 4 inch fat tyres are good and soak up the bumps really well. ive done a lot of mods to it including a 2 battery setup with balancer, bmx bar kit, 56t crankset, mirrors, indicators, extra wide saddle, 203mm rotors, plastic fenders and i installed a power analyser as the bike only shows battery bars and not watts, amps etc. i love the bike but had to fix a few flaws. as for range my 13ah + 10ah setup gets me about 50 to 60 miles on pas 2/3 not bad with my weight. my other bike is a Kona 27.5" Mtb which i converted to electric using a yose power 350w rear hub kit. it may only be a 36v motor but has no problem pushing me along even up steep hills very little effort is needed on my part and it has a decent turn of speed at about 22mph. ive modded that bike too. prior to owning these bikes i hadnt ridden in years and they've given me a new lease of life. i see more and more ebikes now and they're becoming ever more popular.

I appreciate this list and recognize the fact that a lot of heavier riders want a more powerful ebike... but I'd like to offer a reminder that lightweight ebikes with a solid max capacity are worth considering too. For example, the Velotric T1 and T1 ST have a rated carrying capacity of 330 lbs, which is more than two bikes on this list, despite having "only" a 350 W motor. I just want something that gives me a bit of help up a hill but still feels as nimble as an acoustic bike otherwise. After all, many heavy folks ride acoustic bikes too, and some of us want to be forced to do *some* exercise 🙂. For many of us apartment dwellers a heavy ebike is also more inconvenient than it's worth anyway. The problem is that many of these lightweight bikes have miniscule claimed weight limits under 275 lbs. So was pleasantly surprised by the velotric T1 in this regard.

Well, I’m 265 lbs and four of these are on my short list: Velotric Discover 2 Rad Power Radster Trail Specialized Global Haul ST Aventon Aventure 2 (because it’s $1599, with a free extra battery right now) It seems to me that everyone’s got the message, the $1400 - $2000 range is very competitive. To be competitive in it, an e-bike has to have: hydraulic disc brakes, 750W rear hub motor, UL listed is becoming necessary, and several decent accessories (e.g., rear rack, front/rear lights with thumb controlled turn signals, fenders, and a decent looking display). Oh, and a throttle, though you have to pay more for the Haul ST’s, for some reason. I’m leaning to the Velotric, as I like everything I see. My next favorite would be the Radster Trail, except I want the Road version’s front fender (what are they thinking?). However, with Aventon offering the Aventure 2 for $1600 (forget the 99 marketing crap), with a free extra battery, which they have at $500, it’s hard to turn that down. Carrying a second battery would make any range concerns disappear. I’m going to a couple shops tomorrow (only Velotric and Specialized dealers in town) to see what they have. Thanks for your reviews!

@@skeller61 Yes, I commented asking why they would do this and to do the test over. They have some calculations for the discrepancy and still bad numbers. I wanted to try the D2 for myself at a local bike dealer which has a good size hill. Unfortunately the D2 couldn't be on the floor for sale do to a faulty controller. I don't like fat tire bikes but tested the Aventon Adventure (Step through). That thing was smooth, quiet and powerful climbing the hill and really solid flying back down the hill. I'm really considering it. Will try it again and decide if I want to load that beast on my truck.

For the life of me, I can’t figure out why they did that. It’s just like putting another bike in mode 4 (of 5) and saying, “well, geez, it did badly, but you can figure out what it would do in PAS 5”. Uh, no, that’s what the test is for. Again, if you want to get the Aventon Aventure 2, they are $2000 off with a free extra battery this weekend.

I started with an ST2, almost everything was changed on the bike. Almost under warranty but how many times I found myself on the side of the road pushing it (I took out breakdown insurance so much that it was serious). How many days off or recovery time I had to take because I didn't arrive on time. How many days the bike was at the dealership (we're talking in months over 3 years). In principle I do 10,000Km/year I sold the bike with 28,000Km, when it should have had almost 40,000Km!!! I still had to take care of a lot of repairs (fork bearings, front wheel bearings, etc.) Info from the salesperson, I had no luck, it was the Monday bike. I keep my confidence and after 4 years on the ST2, I buy an ST3 Woe is me, even more problems. The bike had not yet left the showroom when the front headlight was not working properly, the brakes were mounted in reverse (front for rear and vice versa). Today the bike has 9000 km over 2 years, I should have had almost 18,000 km It has been at the dealership an incredible number of times for non-stop repairs. Still the majority under warranty, but still with the same drawbacks. At my expense fork bearings at 2000Km, broken spokes on the front wheel (then it was replaced under warranty), recently, front wheel bearings. The bike is not even 2 years old and I am more than €500 out of my pocket in repairs which should be covered by STROMER The bike is not entry-level, I bought it for almost €9,000 I can only advise anyone against buying a STROMER, they all have problems. And as long as you are under warranty, you will only get a small amount :) Regularly it is necessary to replace the motor wheel (1500€), the front wheel, the brake set, the motherboard, the control console, the V-shaped headlight, etc.

I have a left leg that will not bend half way, so any ride where I am somewhat upright puts pressure on that knee. but still like to get out. So a recumbent that is not a issue I don't think. So a test of heavy rider recumbent trike with fat tires would be nice!

The torque sensor definitely will help you but there are certain like programming aspects of it where if you're working your way up through the gears from a stop it gives you more help rather than you get up to say 15 mph and then cruise for a bit it'll stop giving you as much help but still a little bit of assistance if you know what I mean.

3:01 The bike I ended up getting, the Velotric Discover 2, was not done consistently with the others, in that you used the Trail mode 5, rather than the Boost mode 5, which neutered it. I don’t know why, but I wish you had been consistent with it, as it would have allowed for the apples to apples best performance. Why did you do this? Also, I unfortunately got this on June 1, the very day the price rose $200, to $1899. I was choosing between the D2, Radster Trail, and Aventon Adventure.2. I found the bike, even at the higher price, to be my first choice. Speaking of prices, it seems the prices you quote are pre-tariff prices, which would been a good thing to address at the start of the video, since it’s effects will be felt by most e-bikes in the US market.

I love it when a rare enjoyable video comes into my news feed...! I am literally "in like" with this guy!!! I have 100% never been able to sit through ebike videos over 2 minutes. It's not that I'm impatient(well? Maybe sort of, kind of), but more of the fact that this guys voice-cadence keeps me focused and intrigued. Sounds weird, I know. Enough with the compliments..... As a towering 6'- 7(235 lb)" ebike owner, this height/weight situation has been a thorn in my side when picking out a decent ride. 4 years ago, the choices were pretty slim on the market, compared to today's vast offerings. I settled for a lesser known, and barely talked about fat tire brand/style called Magnum Scout. It was seriously the only fat tire available for my ginormous size. After a few hundred upgrades(literally), I have a behemoth of an ebike that still gets a myriad of "oohs and ahhs" on the daily. This super insightful video however, has got me doing a full 360 on the newer options out there for us biguns. The one thing that I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around though, is the rider distances given with all of these ebikes in the vid. I have 100% never gotten over 25 miles on a single charge with my current ebike set up. I just purchased a new battery with a 48v/21ah(previous 48v/19.5ah) power range yet, seem to still stay within the same distance and mileage max. I rarely use the fastest PAS option nor do I live on my throttle. It would be great to see an actual distance test done for those in the 200+ lb weight class. I will close my dissertation with this.... Your company has garnered a new member and fan of your page for sure and I look forward to seeing all of your vids.! Stay safe, stay cool, and more importantly, stay big.🎉❤😅 Tallest regards, Chef Craigers

I have emailed back and forth and get the same answer, we are sorry for the inconvenience but we have them on back order and please keep checking back on our site and there’s nothing they can do to fix this shortage. Now for approximately 4 months my Mokwheel bike has been sitting and useless. Apparently I’m not the only purchaser going through this after doing a little research. In fact I’m just about on the verge of putting a group together and starting a class action lawsuit, pretty sure I wouldn’t have a problem contacting several others with the same issue as far as part supply issues.

I have a Lectric Ebike step through 2.0. On Mother’s Day l had a fall due to the brakes. They locked up and stopped very quickly. I jumped off instead of fallen off and landed on the curd . I landed on my wrist and broke it in 2 places, it was so bad l had to have surgery on it. It has been over 2 months and just got the cast off. It is still very fragile. Still Cannot lift, push or pull. It has been a problem since day one my first ride in the assist 1 it started out good then picked up speed very quickly. It took off l went off the sidewalk and l fell off. I did not get hurt , just my pride. Someone saw it and was laughing at me. He said he was sorry it just looked funny. . I am sure it did. I have had it for over 2 years and only have 95 miles on it. I choose to ride my other bikes . I live downtown Tampa and the streets are crowded. I am afraid it will accelerate suddenly and l may run into someone. I have a different Ebike and it rides smooth and brakes gently. It is a genze e102 , it is a smoother ride and smoother brake. I don’t believe Lectric Ebike no longer makes this model. And they have had issues on their bikes in the past and it even says the step threw 3.0 has a voluntary recall they will send you new brakes. I loved my Genze Ebike , l just needed higher handle bars to take the pressure of my hands, neck and shoulders. It is a bigger bike and does not fold , but it feels safer and broken bones hurt , and they can bother you the rest of your life. Wish l never bought the Lectric bike. My opinion it is not better if it is not safe for yourself and people around you.

I didn't like any of those ebikes in the video. An acquaintance down the street bought a EYU 1,000 watt folding fat tire shipped to his door. I'm the kind to do research, but over 2 weeks I'm so frustrated and overwhelmed with all the ebikes companies, styles and specs of ebikes to choose from and I'm ready to give up. I was always that rider looking for thrills on my mountain bike, but I'm a little out of shape at 230lbs, but could loose 30+lbs if I started riding again. I'm far from rich, so I really can't drop several grand on overpriced ebikes, which are overpriced to begin with. I have been scrolling through so many ebikes from Vitalin, EYU, Bandit, Rundeer, Cyrusher, Giant, etc for weeks and my mind is blank. Do I even go with a folding bike and or even a fat tire? Do I go with some 1,000-1500 watt powerhouse thrill limiting my ride areas or do I go with a 750 watt? I have no idea what is really good, or bad, what is too heavy and what is a waste of money and junk. Any suggestions and advice on what brands and model I should consider from I listed or any others are greatly appreciated.

heavy people don't need more wattage , they need mor torque . It's Torque or NMs that get weight up an incline with the least effort especially if a mid drive is used . forget about a hub drive and a throttle . go for high torque and a mid drive

Ebikes as they get better definitely have a lot of room for improvements. You have your full size Ebike and then your smaller more portable Ebikes and scooters sit downs and stand ups. I love the sporty full suspension powerful sports bike, but when I aim at practical and I believe that's what most people want. look for comfort, power! And not saying super fast but there is no reason not to start making more ebikes geared for torque and power! That means if it goes 32 mph and you hit a steep hill still remain at 32 or maybe 28 at the most with a person that may weigh over 250 but this is not the case as most use hubs and not middrives. Bike laws have a lot to do with this and somethings are going to have to change! Laws should allow any watts if the bike is geared to the recommended speed, many will need higher watts bigger motors not to go faster but to have that needed torque. As bike paths get bigger, longer bikes will need bigger batteries or the ability to nicely add two or three batteries and I mean not slaped into the bike frame looking all cobbled up but clean looking and batteries placed in the righ places for best balance and performance of the bike. We are getting close and we will see a small power compact Ebikes that is excellent for very long distances extremely comfortable and can pull a small trailer that can hold groceries yet has enough power to get up any hill with very little slow down if any so ebikes we start to have a option for excellent touring bikes and I'm seeing this with people modding and upgrading making the perfect Ebike.

Not to be a bike snob, but spend the extra money and get a properly sized bike. There is not bike that only has 2 frame sizes and can fit 4-11 to 6-4+. I didn’t see any bike that was even remotely set up properly. Most real bike companies have at least 5 frame sizes. One fast way to check your seat height is your knee is slightly bend at the bottom of the pedal stroke with your heel on the pedal. When riding, the ball of your foot should be close to the center of the pedal.

Either motor has advantages or drawbacks. Typically hub motors are the more powrful one that better moves higher weight capacities.

mid drives can be better for heavier riders due to the ability to use the gears to help the motor perform, mid drives are more expensive which would affect the $$price for the bikes listed in this video, i am 290 and i just bought a BULLS bike w a mid drive
