The maximum weights are total gross weight (inclduing the bike itself). So the 210KG (on road) and 160KG (off-road) max weights need the weight of the bike subtracting to get driver+payload limit. This hasnt stopped me getting an Orox, but it caught me out with my R&M Multi Charger - which led to a number of broken spokes.

Splendid video. So many have been waiting and needing this! An offroad cargo ebike that can carry heavy weight for long distance is what all campers and outdoors enthusiasts have been waiting for. This opens up a whole new market for ebike manufacturers. The video we all really need and want to see next is its loaded capacity of 390 in its offroad environment. This is what we have been waiting for for so long. The performance of max load offroad is what this new market should be showing and improving on. 😊

Thank you very much for the feedback and for taking the time to watch the video. As you say, it really is a great bike for campers & outdoor enthusiasts. Steve and I took it out for some trail riding with Steve riding and me as cargo, our combined weight is around 160ish kgs. Although, not its max carrying capacity it did give us some idea of capable the bike and motor were under load. Overall they both coped really well, as mentioned the bike is quite long so not the most nimble, but nothing really will be carrying that sort of load. With me in the back, the weight distribution was quite high, but still the bike performed well. I would expect it to perform better with a more traditional cargo (ie not a person) even if the cargo were heavier, as the centre of gravity would be lower.

It looks amazing and I want one, but let's be honest, E-Bike prices are out of control. You can buy a decent used Nissan Leaf EV Car with a 200km range for the same prices as this bike. Even Decathlon take basic £200 Shopper bikes" and charge £1200 for the E version. Swytch Bikes sell Electric conversions for £500, and presumably they are making a few hundred quid on that (You even get a free front wheel included in that price). As an engineer I just can't see where that huge extra E-Bike cost is coming from. I'm buying a Nissan Leaf all day long (actually I have one already).

Hi guys great video! Is the q factor of the Orox like a fat bike, or have they managed to get the chain stays long enough to have a normal sized one?
@ebikecentre Ай бұрын
Hi, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. We’ve measured the bike and the Q Factor is 230mm

Is it UK road legal ?, using it for 2 up plus luggage riding would be a struggle for a 250 watt motor.

Hi, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment on the video. Much appreciated. Yes, the bike meets all UK e-bike regulations and is UK road legal. We found that the Bosch Performance Line CX motor had more than enough power to get us up and down the hills (off road) with two adults on the back. We didn’t laden it with cargo as well, but I don’t expect that it would struggle with the additional load.

Very true. In our opinion there are far too many illegal rides around the UK but it seems the police force don’t have the man power or inclination to do anything about it. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
