DJI Surprise The Industry with Huge Power eBike

New DJI AMFLOW ebike with 120nm, 1000w AVINOX motor.

[@MacRogersrealestatebroker]

I can’t believe this is the first time the features that they added are coming out. This is amazing.

[@JJ_MTB_15]

Wow who woulda thought DJI. Sick looking bike too.

[@plokmko0]

Can't wait to see these in the wild !!! I would love a 250 Whr range extender for a kilowatt+ trail beast.

[@tinman8888]

The waiting list to buy one of these will be insane. I’ll be on it haha

[@BryceLovesTech]

If specialized or trek came out with these features, they would charge $20,000

[@markymark959]

Only a moron would pay that. No bike is worth that price

[@lars_atx]

Really love the touchscreen and silence of the motor. Are you able to tell us if other partners are releasing DJI Avinox system bikes soon?

[@NBMBC40]

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?

[@gsum1000]

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.

[@RobHill00]

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!🤷🏼‍♂️

[@cleggycyclist]

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

[@kez2252]

Can't wait to see a longer travel enduro with this system

[@davidwariaro9885]

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.

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.

[@cristiabc1310]

DJI has a lot of software power and strong background on. Integrating them, I am just dissapointed why other big players are so sluggish and slow in development especially in the area of anti- theft systems. There are technical possibilities but the wilingness to introduce the technology is not present!

[@Bengy22]

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

VSA VLOGS FROM🇮🇳 ❤

[@MarioGoatse]

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?

[@axiomic]

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.

[@MarioGoatse]

@@axiomic I really hope that transfers to their e-bike systems. It does sound promising

[@markwinandy1347]

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?

[@Lou-f]

Did you get to ride it? Also the seat tube looks a bit too long for a decent dropper.

[@MrMartinSchou]

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]

But not the sequence of the numbers.

[@MrMartinSchou]

@@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]

@@MrMartinSchou ok, thanks for that input. I will talk to the developers and we will change it.

[@MrMartinSchou]

@@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".

[@CarkeekW]

its a good idea and only a firmware update from reality

[@NBSTL68]

Super cool... but will it be available anytime soon? I am reading like "maybe" 2026 in the U.S. And how will warranty / repair work with 0 repair/ maintenance options right now?

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 =(....

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

[@CarkeekW]

@@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.

[@da12641]

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.

does it come with 259gram drone and action cams?

[@The.JZA.]

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?

[@streddaz]

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.

[@The.JZA.]

@@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?

[@fredEVOIX]

​@@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

the motor is 1000w peak and 250W continuous nominal declared power , make no mistake this is a wolf in wolf's clothing

[@djm8027]

They are not limited

[@MarioGoatse]

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

[@siriosstar4789]

The devil is in the details. 1- NM- DJI 120 nm for 30 seconds . why? because tha manufacture admits that it might over heat if left on for longer than that . Sachs/ BMZ - 112 Nm . available all time without over heating . TQ - 120 Nm no reports of overheating . 2- weight . weight with that much power is negligible even going up hill . only weight weenies will make an issue out of weight on a full power e bike . 3- NON removable battery. That's a serious deal breaker for most riders . 4- touch screens are dangerous when riding . they require too much visual attention in order to operate creating distraction which could result in a crash . buttons can be operated by feel so your eyes can remain on the trail/road etc. also i noticed in one of the many paid reviews that DJI/amflow is currently flooding the internet with that when the screen was touched and scrolled it didn't respond . hmm ? 5- no long term real world testing by consumers .
