What works

  • 300 lb rated carrying capacity - the highest published in its price class and rare at any price
  • 10 kW peak and 56 mph for $3,799, on the same 72V/35Ah LG pack as the discontinued Falcon M
  • 200 mm Fastace inverted fork and a stated 12-month warranty on battery, motor, controller and frame

Trade-offs

  • $250 shipping is disclosed only in the policy page - the real delivered cost is about $4,049
  • 79Bike honours after-sales service only on bikes bought direct; buying through a dealer costs you factory support
  • Thin support network and a maker that deleted its predecessor's product page without notice

What works

  • 15.8 kW peak output and 62 mph top speed put it above the SS 2.0 and Light Bee class
  • 72V/50Ah swappable pack gives it 3.6 kWh without leaving the compact trail-bike format
  • Reverse, app support, adjustable suspension, and 4 ride modes make it more complete than the value-focused SS 2.0

Trade-offs

  • Real trail range still needs verified owner or test data; claimed range is a low-speed figure
  • Higher price and lower rider-weight rating than the SS 2.0 weaken its heavy-rider/value case
  • Smaller aftermarket/support base than Sur-Ron or Talaria
