HOW MUCH WEIGHT CAN AN E-BIKE HANDLE? - MTB TOW CHALLENGE!

Спорт

How much weight can an E-bike handle? - MTB tow challenge! I push my Canyon electric mountain bike to the limits to see how much weight it can pull with it Bosch CX Race motor, can it really tow 8300kg?
I put my Canyon Strive:ON E mountain bike to the test by pulling and towing 4 increasingly heavy vehicles starting with my road legal CFMOTO buggy which is the lightest of them all at 700 kg then I go through my Mercedes vans until the biggest vehicle is released into the streets, my huge Phoenix motorhome which weighs around 8 tonnes! This bike challenge was super fun and shows just how strong these electric bikes really out, so what are you waiting for? Go get one and climb some hills!!
I hope you enjoy the video!

    Let's just appreciate the fact that Sam is the ultimate bike tester and Lewi is the ultimate cameraman for the job. They test so we can get solid information on what is the best E bike for towing random buggies and Sprinter vans. It's essential information. 😎👍

    There's a reason bike trailers connect at the bike's axle and not the seat. The leverage won't pull the cyclist off balance. If you tied the tow rope lower its much easier to keep the bike upright.
