More Motorcycle Than eBike? Gunai MX25 Review 1000W eBike

Gunai MX25 review. 1000W rear wheel e-bike with 25Ah, 20x4" fat wheels, and a look to it more motorbike than e-bike! buy-brilliant.... code: BLMX25 1359€

[@joecorso7686]

I just received one of these bikes that was damaged during shipping. Not Gunai's fault but trying to get the technical information for the fork replacement is excruciatingly painful. I've gone back and forth with one of their "technicians" on chat for at 15 back and forths. Their latest response was to send a link to purchase the incorrect forks from their web site and the technical info they gave was merely "18 in the rear and 73 in the front is the ballpark" I have no idea how that info would help find the correct fitment to replace the suspension parts on this bike. One thing is certain, they do not have clear understanding of customer service or technical support.

[@tomslattery1]

@@Techtablets Do you have a table where you compare the different categories of bikes?

[@flolou8496]

Are you saying the bike can't be turned off all the way unless you physically remove the battery? I don't want to worry about the bike being stolen if run into a store for 5 minutes and removed the key, I know I run the risk of it being stolen in any case if a thief chose to try and get away with pedal assist power only, but I'm willing to take that chance, what I'm afraid of after hearing your review is your suggesting I think that the ebike could still have battery power even after I removed the key ?

I like the look of these bikes but they are so obviously not a bicycle that I think that it woild attract way too much attention from police and others.

[@wood-wheel-wizard]

So 😂

[@En4cer2K9]

I have this bike, but it's branded as the Deepower X20, and there's no rear rack or fenders. The Amazon listing had a choice of battery sizes between 20ah, 25ah, or 30ah. I ordered the 30ah model, but they sent me a 25ah battery instead. I got a refund for the price difference. I'd say it's my 2nd favorite ebike, behind my Ariel Rider X-Class, as the performance feels "almost" as good.

[@Techtablets]

That's very interesting you say it feels almost as good as the Rider X-Class is 52V. I breifly tested this one unlocked and it is very quick for an ebike, really feels more like a 125cc dirt bike it's speed or 50cc. You bike must look so much better without the fenders and rear bike rack! Maybe i'll take them off if I end up hanging on to this. Love the brakes, power and ride. Thanks for your comment! Enjoy that Deepower X20!

[@Daivd1111]

You should bring a ruler to measure the fork travel next time.

[@Techtablets]

Will have to, and a scale to weigh it as their measurements are normally under by a few kilos.

[@freedomofmotion]

I have this, the OEM I believe is a company called Siniu The chain constantly comes off 😂 I have the 30 AH 2000w version ( only the motor is 2000w the motor controller is 1380 ISH watts 😂) top speed on flat is 32 MPH or so with 6 foot 75 kilo rider The attachment point for rear mudguard will snap if you use it off road. Great commuter bike though with a few mods. I reccomend changing the tyres as the stock ones do not enjoy the wet ( or leaning over) the bike very much at all.

[@Techtablets]

Nice. Even lager battery more powerful motor nice. 👍 Yes these tires are more for off-road and the mudguards I would take them off anyway. What tires so you have on yours?

[@TechExpertHub]

how do you get the chain to stay on more?

[@freedomofmotion]

@@TechExpertHub Not much you can do aside from upgrading derailer . As a hack solution I put a 3 speed on the front so when it jumps off it stays on and doesn't wind up in the rest cassette

Where did you ordre and have you reveived? How is it? Cheers

[@mizoalmasri3022]

It's confusing, that it achieves only 50 km range, I would have guessed an 80 at least on pure electice... that is only 1000 w motor.. the bike is reasonably heavy 37kg.. but not too heavy.. Philodo H8 with dual 1000 watt can achieve 40 miles range on pure electric with its 22Ah battery. quite more than the Gunai.. my only explanation is that the motor of the Gunai has a nominal power output of 1000 w, but might be able surpass that.. it has good speed at climbing. I'm disappointed. It seams that Mid drive e bikes will still be the king even with way smaller batteries. Nevertheless the price is amazing

[@Techtablets]

I'm sure it really uses more than 1000W peaks at more like 1300-1400w as it's climbing performance is the strong point.

[@Breen7831]

but my question is how fast can the GUNAI MX25 go only with a throttle on a normal road and how long does it take to 0 to 30km/h?

[@Techtablets]

40km/h a but more. Takes about 5- 6 seconds 30 on a full charge.

[@zodiacfml]

crazy structural design. the structure for the seat and the thin steel tubular at the rear likely to come become weak at the weld points in eight years or more. however, this is an easy fix and/or structural upgrades for a competent welder. the rear shock absorber also appears not going to last long due to the awkward angle at heavy loads.

[@Techtablets]

It feels fine, I guess if the rider was 120 kilos maybe after years it could become an issue? As for the shock yes it's under a lot of pressure.

[@serge470]

Nagh, the frame looks very rigid, rear shock probably goes off after a year or so, but should be no problem to replace it for some high quality aftermarket.

[@Techtablets]

@@serge470 Yeah i' with you having used this bike the frame is solid, that shock will wear out, and when it does just replace it with something much better.

[@RSCB]

The motorcycle without earbleeding sounds

[@Techtablets]

Very true, just the noise of the tires.

[@mercedes_and_more]

But not legal in the EU/UK as a bike (>250w motor) and in most countries need insurance/registration plate….

[@Techtablets]

Sadly not. But I do ride about here at 25kmp/h and never had any issues. Even had the local police say nice looking bike (Not this model)

[@mercedes_and_more]

@@Techtablets 😂😂 in Germany it would be a straight removal from the road, fine etc etc

[@Techtablets]

Well Spain or at least my area is a bit more relaxed if you aren't speeding about like an idiot they don't check ebike motor wattage. They only really seem to care that it's limited to 25km/h which is what they normally are or I limit them to that. This way the chance of them stopping me is super slim.

[@abuqadr629]

​@@mercedes_and_morei drive an e bike with 32km/h no pedalling and never had problems. Police stares sometimes..i think one time they also wanted to talk to me but i just kept on riding lmao. Just make sure to not drive too fast and begin to paddle whenever police is around 🗿👍🏻

[@hippopothomas1980]

It's too large and clunky to call it an bicycle... If the battery runs out, it will be a trouble to pedal it back home with the wide body like that.

[@Techtablets]

Yes without the battery they are very hard to ride.

[@Gerhold102]

UK Poster here. One observation after talking to a guy who owns one. Having the option to use WITHOUT pedals creates a grey area in this country. A bicycle needs pedals (mostly) to put and keep in motion. That means here that it's not obligatory to have 3rd party (minimal) insurance. The owner has insurance (not sure what type but I assume he's covered for 3rd party damage/injury). He also wears full motorcycle gear. If the police stopped him after seeing him not pedalling, they'd assume he was a biker - pedals or not. He'd then have to provide a licence, insurance and possibly an MOT/TÜV cert. of vehicle roadworthiness. It's very fast for a cycle and the possibilities of an accident are significant if driven irresponsibly. In France any bicycle capable of motion independent of pedals is banned - after a couple of fatalities. I'd have one if I was clear what the implications were if I was involved in an accident with someone else and if I was sure a copper couldn't penalise me in any way.

[@flolou8496]

??? Does anyone think this unusual ''floating seat'' style might have a indirect benefit when it comes to feeling the roads vibrations? If the seat is not directly connected to the frame on all sides, won't that mean less vibrations are felt in your groin and butt area ?
