Price on their website is $1299 but the battery is listed as 20Ah LG cells bigger than in review. Also they offer rear foot rests for $19.99 in their accessory catalog.
FUcare is FU-king Cool! $1299 for full suspension, 750W 48V 20AH, 80NM, 32MPH, 180mm Discs, INCLUDES Foot Pegs and Sissy Pad for Rider! BMX bars, Color Display, 3 Frame Color Options... 80 lb frame, 400 lbcapacity! Also Cable Lock! Front, Rear baskets and saddlebag options, !!! Love It
An adjustable seat post makes it a standout in moped style ebikes. The rear suspension and fat tires will mitigate the rough riding of the heavy hub motor rear wheel. A 28 mph bike for $1299, amazing.
@@Bigdog1787 I think the bigger issue is the permanent magnet drag from hub motors. It makes coasting near impossible and takes away any cycling experience. Similar to a moped but with less range/autonomy. I love e-bikes, but the name of the game was to first make them appealing like toys, and most of the competition followed that.
This is why "pedal by wire" seems to be a better option for these heavy chunky bikes, especially cargo bikes. While technically less efficient, they benefit from high torque at low speeds and can charge up via pedalling (which begs the question why no e-bike can regen yet). Tere's also no under-engineered derailer to suffer from the zero-assist load.

Thanks for the informative info on the Libra. I recently stumbled across these online while shopping for a fat tire ebike to replace my Eunorau fat tire that was stolen a few weeks ago. Had it a little over 2 years, racking up a bit over 7,500 miles on it. Looks like I’m heading for the Libra, as it has front & rear suspension that was greatly needed on the Eunorau. Already have a solar charging system and a spare 4Amp plug in charger as well as a side of whitewall tires too - the big, wide whitewalls, and compliment a white bike so well!
Thank you for this video. I want to do some trail riding this summer and some in town as well. It would be my first. I’m 74 and in decent shape so thanks again.
I have watched a lot of these unboxing videos and nice to see someone that can use tools!!!! And I am not kidding some people don't know what they are doing
Some folks aren't mechanically inclined... I told Austin, "Most all these ebikes have no dealers anywhere near most of us, so... Plan on learning how to work on one or shop thru a local bike shop that can maintain it for you."
MORE THAN BEATABLE. purchased from fucare ebikes, the customer support is non existent , phone number reaches no one. I spent 1300, cannot get support.. the bike hasn't moved in 4 days. I highly recommend getting a different bike .

Always a delight to watch you. I get the feeling you're honest, and that is not a given with these reviews. I'm an older (ancient) woman . I feel like I learn something every time I see you. I'm unsure about what to rate my priorities with these bikes. It can't be too heavy because I'm not strong, but I want to be able to go far and put it on a bike rack. Also, should I start with a cheaper bike, like this fucare Libra or get a more expensive bike as my final purchase in this genre. Many dilemmas and hard to make a decisive move. But, thank you for these quality reviews.
As 1 'ancient' to another... I got a 65 lb folder that I can put in my hatchback... If you have lotsa hills, get 750W. Flat like FL, 500W is OK. This bike is 80 lbs but looks like a great bike otherwise. Happy Shopping...
And they ARE pretty special ! They were Chevrolets first unibody car and rear engine like successful VW / Porsche cars … I have owned many ,and it was also my first car in high school.
@@davidj.jorgensen4828 I've always liked the "coke body" style of the second gen. I found out that my family had one as the family car before I was born but they weren't impressed by it
Pegs are considered an accessory. Been looking at this and the Gemini X. I used to race BMX once upon a time ago and I like the seating position. Not hunched over a straight bar but more upright and relaxed with BMX style bars.
So want an electric bike, now at 62 years old less peddling up hill is required... I do worry about what brand bike to purchase, in reference to if a part breaks in a couple years will the company and replacement parts still be available? Thanks for your content.

Came to this video for the entertainment of watching you unbox the bike. Stayed for your review of the bike itself. I/we reuse all the foam packing materials to ship items. Our goal is to reuse or recycle everything and not send anything to the landfill.

I'm definitely going to look into this. I'm actually looking for a bike for longer range. I'm planning on riding from Amherst ma to Hampton Beach NH! I haven't been up there in years.
I noticed it comes with foot pegs and back rest now. My question though is if someone is sitting on the back couldn’t their leg get caught in the rear shock or always rubbing up against it?
The factory as shipped air pressures were badly underinflated at 16psi rear and 15 front. Thats less than half of the tire sidewall specification of 35 psi. The feel test didn't indicate any issue, they "felt" fully inflated. This pressure would give a soft mushy ride but will kill your range. If you don't need the range you can get a softer ride with low pressure and for off road use it might work better.
Yes the Corvair chevy tried to have an electric version called the Electrovair but had the usual battery efficiency problems so it never been produced.
Oversteer was considered the work of the devil, the electric version allowed the weight of the batteries to be distributed better but still a lead sled and efficient electronic controls were many years away.
ok, the clip where Micah ties the box to the back of the ebike and rides off is "video gold" ...what an awesome idea...I'm doing that for sure as an homage to this video! So awesome...bike looks solid and powerful :) I'm thinking riding off into the sunset lol :) well done :)
@@TimsElectric You guys should check my Addmotor unboxing from a few months ago then. I kept in more footage of me towing the box away to the dumpster...
This reminds me as a non mechanically inclined person why I like Lectric sending their bikes out completely assembled. Might not get as good a bike that way, but their lower costs and ready to ride shipping makes it worth it to me.
Rear Back Rest+ Footpegs are free currently on their website. I’m 6’2” 280lbs I’m looking for a step thru e-bike that is good on hills as I live 1330’ above sea level. Can you help with advice?
Mika, thank you very much for this video. I actually just recently bought all about your E bikes and all about solar panel so I have two more to go. Do you have all your books.

Have you ever done a review of e-bike manufacturers based on oost-sale support? All of the e-bikes look fine, out of the box. But what about support when something breaks?
When I lift the Ariel Rider Kepler tire off the ground and hit the throttle.... I get 46.5 mph in level 9.. Or throttle only.. I wish that translated to on the road.😂 We had a 62 or 63 Corvair when I was like 4-8 years old.. I think a spyder or monza model.. We had it until 68 when dad bought a 68 Charger RT with a 440 magnum😂
Nize bike and car show. And love the part you say about too much foam to ebike companys lol. Personally I love it for 2 reasons 1 I know how much protective I have during shipping and 2 that feeling like its Christmas opening a new toy not knowing if im gonna love it or not
hey dude, I have a video suggestion. Ebike conversion updated with 2023 tech/pricing. I found a very cheap fat tire tricycle on amazon, and it looks to be cheaper to convert than buy a complete etrike. I'm just a little lost on what's the best kit for my money.

there is a tag on the rear seat warning max load 40kg. I saw a couple riding on this bike and the passenger looked like heavier than that. Do you think it can endure 50kg? I planned to ride with my relatively slender wife
How much are the batteries and what do they weigh? Almost looks like my bintelli fusion but looks considerably smaller than mine. And I can hardly ride it due to being 6'5".
Thank you for a great review! This is typically the look that I want, motocross massive like, but would prefer without any suspension to make it lighter..and less expensive.. large tires are enough for me. Would you have any suggestions?
