Anyone own a big game bike ?

[Simonwwfc]

Been looking at a company called big game bikes based Worthing , looking at the folding impala ebike with 750 bafang motor and 48v 24ah battery for my wife anyone bought one ?

I've not seen one in the flesh but their website says 26.5kg plus the battery, making around 32.5kg. Even without the battery that's plenty to lift into a car boot. Is the hinge pin removable? ;-D

Not sure about hinge pin , it’s just for the wife who now does a lot of trail riding and the mirider one wasn’t up to it . Seems to have a massive battery at 24ah 48v and nice bafang 750 watt motor

You are probably ware, but just in case...
You are definitely in S-pedalec with that one; no legal use on public road without registration/insurance etc, and no use in public off-road places such as cycle paths, bridleways, canal paths, etc.

Plenty of powerful options within the regs, perhaps the wheel size of the mirider was a factor in its disappointment off road? Im more than happy with my conversion which was no harder than changing a tyre, bolting on a few bits and tidying up the wires. A great option on a comfortable donor bike with good brakes.

Woosh and Wisper bikes are well regarded for supplying bikes with expected lifespans longer than it takes for the first element/component to fail.
