KTM Macina Force 29 10 CX4 Video Review - Hardtail 29er Electric Bike
bicycles reviews | bicycles videos | bicycles online
https://electricbikereview.com/ktm/macina-force-29-10-cx4/ The KTM Macina Force 29 10 CX4 is a light weight, hardtail 29er electric bike that would work well for cross country riding or mixed-urban commuting thanks to a pair of rack bosses, suspension fork lockout and the larger more efficient wheels. Quality components including Shimano SLX 10 speed drivetrain, Shimano M355 Hydraulic disc brakes (180 mm front and rear) and a RockShox XC30 air fork, the bike comes in three frame sizes for improved fit. Premium ebike systems by Bosch... one of my favorites on the market, easy to see, understand and operate while riding, removable battery pack for convenient charging and transport, high torque CX motor. Smaller 15 tooth chainring is great for climbing but could be susceptible to chain suck in extreme wet muddy conditions, motor casing looks a bit bulky compared to other 2016 Bosch bikes.

if this is anything like their dirt bikes, then they got a winner.

Does anyone make a e bike that is a beach cruiser style with a comfortable seat and reach back handlebars?

Regarding comments at 9:22. I don't know anyone who would put a DIY front motor on a bike intended for serious mountain biking!
I personally never recommend front hub motors for any DIY e-bike kit irregardless of mountain biking or not. I could possibly be convinced of a small 250W front hub motor that's intended for a bike that goes just to the grocery store on flat pavement in dry weather. I don't do hard core mountain biking but I have personal experience climbing steep gravel roads without any slipping on my rear hub motor e-bikes. A heavy powerful rear hub motor works really well for hill climbing. -
Any chance you will review the full suspension Lycan model? I'm curious as to what you take on the two of them is comparatively.

I am definitely buying a rad rover

4495? holy crap a lot more expensive than a fullnine Heibike rc? Oh wait it has a bosh motor, but still, I might be wrong that i miss something?
Here in Euro this bike with out that front fork its 2300 euro! -
Hi court shame KTM didn't bring in the model's to the states and the uk with the updated slimmer motor that haibike etc use as the one on this model is last year's bulky 25%larger one. Would love a KTM being a motorcyclist ;)

Love it. I am a KTM guy now. But no throttle mode = no go.

I really want a KTM!

Hi man! Nice review as usual!
I was waiting for your review of the KTM Macina series.
I am an happy owner of KTM Macina Sport 10 CX5 (2016).
KTM with the Bosh system it's really cool, in my opinion..
Keep on with your amazing hard work my friend! :^) -
