This Beefy E-Bike is Essentially a Motorcycle with Pedals

Challenger sale pricing and availability: bit.ly/3TVvCpK
Is this an E-bike or a motorcycle? The BeeCool Challenger design is meant to look like a cruiser motorcycle, and it kind of handles like one too. With a battery that looks like a gas tank, ape-style handlebars, a big headlight, and a long massive frame, some people may confuse the Challenger for a motorcycle at first glance.
The Challenger has the largest battery we have ever seen on an electric bike, but it is also the heaviest we have reviewed. It's a fun ebike to ride but it's not going to give you the traditional cycling experience.
In this review, we walk through, go for a ride, and tell you what we love and hate about the BeeCool Challenger.

Hey, this is the guy who bought the bike from you 👋😁. I'm at 400 miles and have some updates lol. All 400 miles are on Denver city streets and trails. 39 miles- realized the grating under the headlight makes it worthless. The grate distorts the light and casts the pattern onto the road. Bought an 8000 lumen bar light and disconnected the stock light so I can still use the back light at night without seeing the grate pattern lol 67 miles- added tannus armor and slime after my 3rd flat, the tubes are really really thin. 131 miles- the front mud guard fell off. 188 miles- rear brakes failed. Checked pads and realized they weren't fully seated over the disk and had worn a groove until they couldn't connect. Got new pads and seated properly. 247 miles- rear mud guard fell off 315 miles- stitching on grips started coming out 346 miles- front brakes failed. Disk bent. Replaced disk. I have done range tests and it gets 30 miles on throttle only, not 40. If you keep it on pas 2 which limits it to 20mph and don't touch the throttle it gets 65 miles range though. Other than that it's been a great ride. It's too cold for me to ride now so I took the battery and back wheel/motor off and brought them inside and the rest of it is on a hook in the garage lol. Will definitely remain in the line up next season though.

That's really cool but I feel like a shunt mod or even a new 2kw hub motor and controller would make this thing a lot better.... Definitely look for better forks, maybe street tires and a good alarm system built into the frame if it's going to be treated like a motorcycle.

[@DanLimbach]

The 750W version is the only street legal one in most states. Max legal speed is 28mpg, so the 750W is the one if you don't want to get hassled about it being outside of the legal specs. A 2000W motor would not be legal on trails and on streets without registering the vehicle. I prefer a version that is legal on roads and trails, without needing a license, registration, and insurance. But yes, a 2000W motor would really be badass.

My favorite features on this e-bike are the horn and turn signals. Why are our bicycles not made to be more compatible with street environments? Our bicycles are still basically children's toys, from a traffic safety perspective.

[@pacificostudios]

@@johnw65 - I just saw a new design of rear light that includes an accelerometer so it is EXTRA BRIGHT when you slow down. In other words, it's a BRAKE LIGHT. There is really no excuse not to make it easy to make your bicycle more compatible with the cars with which you share the road.

Perfect Review!!! I’m looking for something as a gift. You think this bike will be good for heavy riders??

[@DanLimbach]

I wonder if the battery gets hot on sunny/hot days. Is there ventilation? You can't remove the battery to charge it at an office or in your home. It's also not good to leave the battery in cold weather. So if you are in an area where winters are very cold, you'd have to move the whole ebike inside rather than park it in your garage, or risk damaging the battery.

I hope they address the issues pointed out in the Challenger 2. Also I’d like to see a second 1000w geared hub motor in the front with an extra 30Ah fitted into the crevices in the frame. 15Ah in each crevice gives one 60Ah, and it would be an extra bonus if the Volts were higher, but not a deal breaker.

Nice looking bike. However, ... 1. Seat comfort and height adjustment is important to me (learned that from owning two e-bikes). I've had to purchase aftermarket parts and seat for both. 2. No space for a rear rack is kind of a deal killer for me. For long rides, you want most of your stuff on a rack instead of on your back. 3. They should have made the 'tank' (battery) removable, that's like e-bike 101 for selling points. One of my e-bikes weigh's 90lb. with the battery (thank goodness I don't have to store it where stairs are). As stated in the video this is a major negative selling point for apartment dwellers. 4. Brakes, sound like they should have used the Tektro brand to start out with like other e-bike dealers use.

[@johnw65]

90% of Americans don't live in Apartments... The brakes lock up with a 215 pound rider. The off brands keep down the price. 4 screws gets the battery off. if you really want to leave this outside in an apartment parking lot...

[@MrPrincepop]

@@johnw65 Dude, have you've been to NYC? They have a healthy, thriving e-Bike community and nothing but apartments. Obviously, you did not consider dense populated areas like cities. With most e-Bikes, you get what you pay for. I spent months researching each bike I purchased along with others. My advice is don't go cheap...try and save up. Both my e-Bikes accommodate 300+ lb., and my brakes don't "lock up", I'm a big guy. Both of my batteries are removable (which is great if you need to swap). Also, you cannot start my bike up without using the key in a separate start switch. I keep two different locks on both bikes, plus have a motion alarm on them, as well as Apple Air tags. Nothing is 100%, but staying vigilant and always consider the risk when locking it up somewhere for an hour or so goes a long way in prevention. Anyway, thanks for responding and have a bless day! 👍

@@MrPrincepop What I meant was, in another review, a 225 lb guy was able to skid to a stop from top speed with these brakes.

You make some good points... I'd be tempted to put high security nuts on the axles! Personally I don't care about bike trails or riding gutters.

Most states do not require e bikes to be registered tagged or require a drivers license and restrict speeds to 25 to 30 mph. And do not allow class 3 e bikes on the road or multiple use trails.

Oh yes sorry I forgot yours is a 30 amp hour battery not 14, my bad

[@Snake.br549]

I would have to put a 3000 watt hub motor on the front !

go 4K in the rear, bigger controller and hit the highways!

I wouldn't buy any ebike that I can't take the battery off... especially if I don't have a garage. Heat and cold greatly effect lithium batteries. They sacrificed look for functionality.

nonremovable battery on any ebike is a instant pass. batteries need to be in climate controlled space for longevity

[@TwoWheelWarrior]

That front fork looks like a safety liability.

It’s not a bicycle. It is a motorcycle. If you put pedals on either side of a dump truck, it doesn’t make it a bicycle.

[@freshlycharged]

No, pedals on a dump truck make it a quadcycle!

This bike seems to have a lot of design flaws.
