Sheng mi lo mx01 Electric Fat Bike | Mountain Bike | Review | Off-Road Challenge

This is my review of the Sheng mi lo mx01 electric bike. This is a 26" fat bike with a 1000w motor that can deliver 60km/h and a maximum range of 90km, as the manufacturer presents.
More info about the bike:
shengmiloebike.aliexpress.com...
This is not a paid review so everything is my pure and honest opinion of the bike.
Pluses:
- Good overall quality
- Fair speed
- Fair range
- Decent charging time
- Fantastic brakes
- Good size
- Nice overall aspect
- Fair price for what it delivers
Minuses:
- The seat is verrrry slippery
- The power is there but gets a while to build speed
- It is very heavy - around 40kg
- It lacks a brake light
- Small paddles
- The suspension
- The mud protections
- The tyres are made of nylon not regular rubber
All in all it is exciting and fast, I must admit it got me excited to test it out and the experience was fun to make.

    If you do the shunt mod to the controller it overcomes the acceleration delay problems. The bike responds much quicker and has 3 times more torque for climbing and taking off from a dead stop. It makes it a completely different bike. No more turbo lag, power kicks in instantly.

    Is the motor direct drive or geared hub motor? I just purchased the mx01 on eBay for $1375 The seller said direct drive but the hub doesn't look to be and the claimed torque @95nm doesnt sound like direct. He claims the controller is 15amp. The written claim was 1000W which would be 20ish amps. I'm worried its more like 10 amp.

    How's the suspension linkage on the rear? ..my MX01 is shaking like crazy ..I'm thinking I might lose the rear wheel ..after ~4000km in 2 years. I'm contacting with shengmilo but I doubt they can do anything about it. I had to go with a model without rear suspension - I'm thinking of doing a review about it saying all the issues and there are a LOT

    They look great but are really a pile of tripe. They are so heavy that you cannot lift them (folded) yourself into the back of a car. Don't waste your money pal. Shop around. Mine has been in 2 ebike repair shops for electrical failure 4 times in 1 year. I've only done about 340 miles. It just suddenly stops! Cant wait to get rid of it. There are much better bikes out there.

    After binging on watching about Chinese e-bikes and after my own scooter, I came to a conclusion ALMOST ALL Chinese e-bikes suffer from poor and weak suspension. If only EU or some other ISO could force the manufacturers to actually put SUSPENSION TRAVEL DISTANCE with actual display + name of the suspension. Otherwise, the sellers just put info that it has dual suspension and then it turns out it sucks. Now, can anyone get a hold of some high official to pass the law and make sellers put the travel distance? They all boast about Shimano, which rings a bell to most of us, but they fail to say anything about suspension. Some cheapo spring in there?

    I picked up the Senada brand variant of this bike called the Roamer and you're not wrong, the front suspension rattles, knocks on the upward stroke and feels pretty cheap. I emailed the manufacturer and they told me the pressure adjustment knob does nothing and so that just leaves the other knob to lock out or engage the suspension. Pretty lame.

    I found that when riding on bumpy roads, there is a solder that gives out inside the batter (key area). This will kill the bike. A little solder and a few soft phome pads in the battery tray solved this issue. I hope that this is what happend to you, as it is a very easy fix.

    I agree. (1) It arrived after a very long wait. (2) There were no instruction booklet with the thing. (3) It had road tyres fitted on it instead of "All terrain" tyres as shown on the Amazon UK web page. (4) the thing just stops without warning. (5) The Chinese company had the cheek (when I asked for a refund) to email me back with a very cheeky reply. They said that this (REFUND) would be a huge loss to them!!! What about my loss??? I know how you feel mate.
