Hola! Bought a NCM Moscow 29er about 3 weeks ago and 170mi in, I'm stoked! Getting incredible mileage (45 to 65mi between charges). I purposely took a 5mi ride without any assist and found it easy to ride. The assembly was fairly straight ahead, but I suggest a professional tune up before any serious ridding. Love this ride for the money with little criticism. By the way, it comes in matt white with blue trim along with black.
@@Fliptheswitch. unfortunately I did more research after this and realised it had too many gears for me- a single derailleur with less gears is easier to manage when you have pedal assist modes. I went for a mid drive motor single derailleur bike but this is a nice looking bike I do like the blue!
I bought a ncm moscow and pulled all the gears and chain off it and put a c7 das kit on it for around my farm.. the gears where a drama.. put it on power mode and with the accelerator just use it as a farm bike as it’s illegal here in australia on road as it does 29-30 kph on average over the paddocks. I can get about a 40 klm range which I’ve done over 1100 in under 3 months.. love it.. you don’t need pedal assist .. when you swap out the das kit for the only electric bike kit .. I still find it funny as no chain no gears and I can pedal and it still drives the motor. You’d also appreciate the weight difference dropping it all off. But I did find you have to put rubber in behind the battery I used puncture repair patches to stop the battery from shaking about on really rough terrain which I ride everyday. At 29-30 kph.
I just bought this bike last week. Last two rides totaled 72 miles on a single charge. Great bike great battery 🔋 i’m amazed. I did get the 29+ model. Hydraulic brakes are better.
Good video on these bikes! I own 1 myself and I recommend Amigo bikes, all the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Virginia it was nice meeting you 😀
I've reviewed so many bikes I could write a book. I narrowed my selections down to the EAHORA AM100, Wallke Plus and Totem MX1 which are beasts, but they cost a lot and in the end, I'm 52 yrs old, have had 3 back surgeries and just want something with some decent power (up to 20mph) and absorbs the bumps. I won't be doing serious off-road riding, so there's no reason to spend over 2 grand. - So, it's down to the Moscow and the Moscow Plus. I figure, the money I save can go into a suspension seatpost, a gel seat and other accessories. - Thanks for the video. It was perfect. It gave a lot of info and didn't waste my time trying to make a music video featuring the bike.
I just bought the NCM its a really really good bike, its not the Plus but i changed a few things and its great. I'm not sure why the hype on the hyd disc brake so much my cable disc brakes work superb. Im 61yrs old i ride the $hit out of my NCM ❤❤❤ is money well spent
love it, 5500 miles, power,sturdy, affordable. They'v kept down price by using readily available, tried& true, generic parts instead of model specific ones. It's my daily driver.
I have the NCM MOSCOW 27,5, I upgraded my bike with new air fox suspension, Shimano hydraulic breaks also Shimano Deore lever’s and cassettes and gears. All for $690 dollars. Now my bike it’s much better than PLUS version. This bikes are german brand with high quality ebikes.
Hi John. Will ebike can be use for towing ( helping ) a child trailer which connects to the rear wheel axle? I'm looking for e-bike for a long trips where I need some help to tow :)

@@Fliptheswitch. My rear wheel started to break apart after using it for 1 month. I've had 2 major rear brake failures so far because a bolt popped off. I had to pay about $500 for repairs to fix my rear wheel. The company told me there is no warranty for this bike if you use it to travel for work.
NCM Moscow Dorado Battery failure with less than 20 charge cycles My NCM Moscow battery failed on the road. After just 13 months of ownership (but less than 6 months of recreational, no winter usage, and less than 20 charge cycles on the battery) my battery failed… I explained to the seller, Leon Cycle, but they were firm on 12-month warranty. The battery goes on and off when shaken…save your money, components and service are key...and get a 2 year min warranty on battery.
Just bought a abused ncm moscow and the front shocks were seized so I replaced it with a rock shock and man it helps! I also upgraded to hydraulic disc brakes shamano high recommend it.
@@pharaohsmagician8329 If the battery still has like 40% charge, you do not have to recharge it. I would recharge the battery if it only has like 30% charge or less.
@@billadmond9450 To be honest I disagree, I used to only charge when the battery died like only charge once a week. I didn't follow my own advice. And then exactly one month ago the battery life plummeted and now am only getting 44 miles a full charge instead of 66 miles a full charge. I don't know if it's because I rode in a huge downpour or if I just didn't follow proper charging procedure. I do however know that the manual and owners say to always charge after every ride and I should have followed that advice. Now I need to pay $300 to buy another battery
You have pretty much nailed the bike review as I have on e of these, I wish the plus version had been available as the brakes are a pain as you keep having to adjust them but still an amazing bike :) I’ve done a good 1500km on it and very few problems and the support was good
G'Day from rural South Australia...I just got a white & blue one what tire pressure do you advise...& I don't have a throttle ...can I fit a throttle to it

Hey all i purchased my NCM not a + still way better than expected and well woth the money BUT its missing the optional removable pedals that make room for optional running boards lol. Im a HD mechanic 45yrs+ i do not need a workout when i go for a ride, i just want to giver shite in the wind go where i wanna go up hill down hill cross country stop for a good smoke then head'r home n relax. Well this bike does it all its rugged yet purdy and very nice to ride. If you're looking for a seriously good bike look no further it is a really well built bike, i did 3mths hardcore research and it shows i didn't go wrong 👊
It doesn't charge as you go. The batteries in this pack are the best quality brand you can find in the world market. The life span is similar among Samsung, Panasonic and LG batteries, after 300 recharges the batteries still hold 80% of their original capacity. Yes a new battery pack is damn expensive, depending on your country and it's capacity 13-16Ah is cost around USD 500-800.
A cheaper made bike. Looks great and reasonable price. The battery works well but won’t last for years, probably around 2 years (with moderate mileage). Not a good everyday bike for commuting because of build quality, but it is a great cheap weekend toy!
1 year late but the 27.5 is 30 inches and the 29 is 32.5, I decided to go with a 27.5 because I want to be able to stand over the bike without nuting myself
I have been looking for a Moscow m3 27.5 in black. I live in eastern Canada 🇨🇦 New Brunswick. I am wondering if Virginia could help me find one ? Hope I spelled her name correctly. Thanks
I guess it depends if you buy it in Europe rather than America: different laws. In Italy, a driving license and insurance are required if the power is greater than 250 W or the maximum assisted speed is greater than 25 km/h (moreover, it cannot have a throttle, it is always necessary to pedal).
Yes that's true I'm aware of the limitations in Europe. Just so people know I'm in Canada and have the 500 watt motor. We tested it at the shop and it does have 55 nm of torque just as the manufacturer stated. Look on the German website that produces this motor and it'll say the same as well. Take care and prosper!
With this bike can I just use the throttle with no peddling? Due to my disability I cannot pedal. I'm getting old and I knees have gone bad. So can I just use the throttle along?
I hear two different answers, can you adjust the max speed for off-road?? Is there a code? I've seen different codes other than 8018. Also, there is info about this being 250w and 500w... I don't want this bike if it's 250
Does anyone know where to get the passcode to the magnums? Are they the same or is there a place to get them? The manual says the "dealer" has them but, obv she is giving them out. My dealer said the manual online had all info but it didnt give passcodes. Not sure if mine is set for top speed.
Hi! Nice review ! i think to get NCM Moscow or Eahora AM100. Can you please make review Eahora AM100 or/and compare Moscow with Eahora AM100 thanks! Will be very appreciate any suggestions . Thanks!
the main problem i see with these bikes is that they have a specific model battery, in 10 years where will you find this very specific battery for replacement ? i guess it will take a while until there will be a standardization like in old fashion electric bicycle
How does the throttle work with the PAS. I press my throttle after increasing the speed level to max (45kph) but the throttle still only works at start off but not when riding. ???
Hey man how fast does your Moscow go uphill on just the throttle? I just got one and on a moderate hill it just barely gets up to 10km/hour without any peddling, and i'm only 180lbs. Is this normal?
I just came back from my 2nd Ncm Moscow test. 60 km 1100 m drop. 1 bar consumed out of 6 over the first 25 km, Then 4 bars consumed over the next 9 km. Arrived at the top after 37 km, only one bar remained. The last 25 km were essentially downhill, except for the last 5 km of the course. I was able to return just by rolling on my calves on a few flat km on the way back, to save money. And 2 more punctures (4 in 3 outings, that's a lot!). I finally invested in an anti-puncture strip (between the tire and the inner tube). In summary, for me, the battery is not at the top, despite 624wh announced. The lcd battery level controller is absolutely unreliable (3 bars less in 5km),
For those looking to buy the Moscow Plus 48V ask me all the questions. I've had this bike for over 4 months and I'll tell you aaAALL about this 'wonderful' bike.
The German business makes NOTHING, they just buy these bikes from a Chinese manufacturer and have them labeled under their German name business. If you're an entrepreneur, you can do the same thing. Open your own business, go to a Chinese bike expo and make a deal with a manufacturer you like.
@@billadmond9450 i think they put the made in Germany sticker because its one of a few products that come from China (i wish i could say it like Trump said it lol) that are worthy of a Made in Germany sticker. IMO
@@rokitman5753 That's ok I'm very very happy with the bike, they offer much more than what I paid for it. Just to mention the free tools they give are chrome vanadium!
Is it possible I can get s throttle for mine,it never came with bike.so if anyone tell where I can buy one from much appreciated.also when I alter tyre size I cannot increase speed although tyre size has been changed in settings any help out there thanks
@@Victori4-82 It is a scam 100%. Reported the vendor to Amazon.it and they banned it right away. Unfortunately they still operate under different names.
Bought an M3 and it was finally delivered after multiple attempts. Second day in and the tire just blew out. What a disappointment. I was going to buy a second one but now I just want my money back. The inner tire literally blew at the seams.
Meinerseits gibt es ganz klar keine Kaufempfehlung und wir schicken die beiden Fahrräder wieder zurück. Keinen Tag damit gefahren und schon haben wir Probleme ohne Ende. Die Lieferung war zwar schnell und top seitens der Spedition, aber schon beim auspacken und zusammenbauen hat der Akku nicht funktioniert, neuen zugesendet bekommen, lief einwandfrei, aber ich als Kunde möchte schon ein Fahrrad für das ich so viel Geld invistiere das es auch schon eingestellt zur mir nachhause kommt, aber war nicht der Fall. - Erster Akku hat nicht funktioniert - Vordere und Hinterre schaltung war komplett falsch eingestellt - Bremswirkung ist unzureichend selbst nach der richtigen Justierung ungenügend - Katzenauge Halterung schon abgebrochen warum auch immer... - Ganzes Pedalgelenk während der Fahrrad einfach rausgebrochen... Kaufempfehlung? Nein, lieber tiefer in die Tasche greifen... gefährlich... man spart an zu vielen stellen und das merkt man wenn schon bei der ersten Fahrt unzählige Probleme auftauchen die in meinen Augen unzumutbar sind... 10km Probefahrt viel zu wenig...
Does anyone know where I can get a rear cargo rack for this bike, the answers on Amazon say, the bike is versatile and you should be able to fit any rack with an upper center mount, but I have tried two different types yet none fit.
@@MCAQUIN0 Found one at SF Wheels in San Francisco, the Magnum electric bike which they sell takes the same rack as the Moscow. You can also get it here www.magnumbikes.com/product/ui5-rear-rack/

You have to check it yourself because everyone will tell a different story. But I can tell you that this is the biggest battery you can get on an e-bike.
Hi , das nenne ich mal ein Klasse und umfassendes Review über das NCM Moscow , leider gibt es ein solches noch nicht in Deutschland bzw auf Deutsch :-( Hi, that's what I call a class and comprehensive review of the NCM Moscow, unfortunately, there is not such a thing in Germany or in German :-(
Da muss erst mal einer aus Kanada auf die Idee kommen ein Kompetentes Review zu Posten zu einem Bike aus China was in Deutschland vertrieben wird ;-) First of all, someone from Canada has to come up with the idea to have a competent review on postings to a bike from China, which will be distributed in Germany ;-)
Es ist keine deutsche "marke" die haben lediglich eine briefkastenfirma in deutschland um mit deutschem premiumprodukten zu werben..es kommt wie fast alles aus china...please use the german-english translation for a little true info about ncm (it not means that is a low quality bike but..;) other brakes new fork and a better saddle and it is an "ok" bike
yepp. I bought for 2 months Fitifito 27.5 in Berlin (a very pretty much the same NCM). The same frame, same brakes, same handlebar, same prise (but in euro;-). Not bad thing. Especially in compare to bosch bikes which are twice as expensive (or even three times)!
Das stimmt so nicht ganz , wie bei den meisten Fahrrädern - auch Hochpreisige - kommen die meisten Komponenten aus China oder Taiwan, - diesen Ländern streite ich auch die Kompetenz im Fahrradbau nicht unbedingt ab weil dort nun auch mal viele Fahrräder im Einsatz sind - , desweiteren findet in Deutschland nur die Endmontage statt : Pressemitteilung -> Sangerhausen (dpa) l Der Fahrradhersteller Sachsenring Bike Manufaktur aus dem Südharz hat einen weiteren Großauftrag bekommen. Das Unternehmen fertigt 2019 rund 20.000 Elektroräder der E-Bike-Marke NCM (Hannover), wie die Firma am Donnerstag mitteilte
Das ist falsch. Andere Markenbikes "Made in Germany" haben auch nicht weniger Teile aus China verbaut. In Hannover sitzt die Geschäftsleitung von NCM & Leoncycle. Schau vorbei, nichts mit Briefkastenfirma...
@@lustigblickt natürlich ist es richtig, das 99% aller e-bikes zum großteil mit china-parts bestückt sind(was ja auch nicht schlecht sein muss) trotzalledem existiert weder eine fabrik bzw manufaktur, noch irgendwelche ladengeschäfte von ncm weder in hannover noch anderswo!! es ist lediglich ein showroom (wenn die das mittlerweile auf die kette bekommen haben) und ein lager für die lieferungen aus CHINA in hannover vorzufinden!! ich bin selbst im besitz eines (mittlerweile stillgelegten) moscow+ und habe die letzten jahre einiges mit der "firma" ncm zu tun gehabt... Ach *~* der rahmen..sehr einzigartig nicht war^^
i ordered one in France for 999€ I choosed the normal one because as i'm a motorbiker i always change the brakes' command : i put the front on the right and rear on the left and i can't do this with hydraulic (or don't know how) i'll put feedback when i receive it so long, lads.

'It gets the job done like a lot of other bikes in this price range"....but you really liked the Moscow Plus with all the extras
What's their respective stand over heights?
1 year late but the 27.5 is 30 inches and the 29 is 32.5, I decided to go with a 27.5 because I want to be able to stand over the bike without nuting myself
I have been looking for a Moscow m3 27.5 in black. I live in eastern Canada 🇨🇦 New Brunswick. I am wondering if Virginia could help me find one ? Hope I spelled her name correctly. Thanks
THE OWNERS MANUAL SAYS 55NM OF TORQUE. NOT 80NM.
I guess it depends if you buy it in Europe rather than America: different laws. In Italy, a driving license and insurance are required if the power is greater than 250 W or the maximum assisted speed is greater than 25 km/h (moreover, it cannot have a throttle, it is always necessary to pedal).
Yes that's true I'm aware of the limitations in Europe. Just so people know I'm in Canada and have the 500 watt motor. We tested it at the shop and it does have 55 nm of torque just as the manufacturer stated. Look on the German website that produces this motor and it'll say the same as well. Take care and prosper!
@@colemarc Only mid motors can reach 80Nm power!
With this bike can I just use the throttle with no peddling? Due to my disability I cannot pedal. I'm getting old and I knees have gone bad. So can I just use the throttle along?
Not recommended to use just throttle all the time. You will burn out the motor.
@@superx9619 well let that puppy burn.
@@michaelturner7641 On a flat road is ok.
@@superx9619 My battery lasted me like 6 hours on pure throttle.
I hear two different answers, can you adjust the max speed for off-road?? Is there a code? I've seen different codes other than 8018. Also, there is info about this being 250w and 500w... I don't want this bike if it's 250
the code i use is 8018
Does anyone know where to get the passcode to the magnums? Are they the same or is there a place to get them? The manual says the "dealer" has them but, obv she is giving them out. My dealer said the manual online had all info but it didnt give passcodes. Not sure if mine is set for top speed.
Lets Have Fun! What is you max mph throttle only? Max mph with PAS?
Hi! Nice review ! i think to get NCM Moscow or Eahora AM100. Can you please make review Eahora AM100 or/and compare Moscow with Eahora AM100 thanks! Will be very appreciate any suggestions . Thanks!
The NCM is the best bike quality parts
Is this just a rebrand of the same bike as Amego Elevate????
Not exactly like the Moscow but I see the same bikes catalog and same batteries.
the main problem i see with these bikes is that they have a specific model battery, in 10 years where will you find this very specific battery for replacement ? i guess it will take a while until there will be a standardization like in old fashion electric bicycle
After 10 years ALL e-bike brands will have different batteries and shapes, you can still rebuild the pack though.
How does the throttle work with the PAS. I press my throttle after increasing the speed level to max (45kph) but the throttle still only works at start off but not when riding. ???
it works while riding as well
goods review thank captain
do you suggest a bike with throttle or not espically the bosch system without throttle
Hey man how fast does your Moscow go uphill on just the throttle?
I just got one and on a moderate hill it just barely gets up to 10km/hour without any peddling, and i'm only 180lbs. Is this normal?
What size tires?
@@conlanmcconnell5381 26"
How is the chain slap on rough bumps with that derailleur?
You keep mentioning Class 3 setup, but nobody knows how to set it up to get to 28mph?
I'm interested too!
In the video he mention about changing it in the setup. password 8018. speed setting should be in there as with the magnum.
How can I do it plz help me
Hey guys. Is the bike suitable for a 6'4" guy.
Yes for sure mate
How much hours of use can I get out the moscow m3?
I just came back from my 2nd Ncm Moscow test.
60 km 1100 m drop.
1 bar consumed out of 6 over the first 25 km,
Then 4 bars consumed over the next 9 km.
Arrived at the top after 37 km, only one bar remained.
The last 25 km were essentially downhill, except for the last 5 km of the course. I was able to return just by rolling on my calves on a few flat km on the way back, to save money.
And 2 more punctures (4 in 3 outings, that's a lot!). I finally invested in an anti-puncture strip (between the tire and the inner tube).
In summary, for me, the battery is not at the top, despite 624wh announced.
The lcd battery level controller is absolutely unreliable (3 bars less in 5km),
For those looking to buy the Moscow Plus 48V ask me all the questions. I've had this bike for over 4 months and I'll tell you aaAALL about this 'wonderful' bike.
How do you like the bike so far? Good for winter and cold days also?
Is it good???
I want to do uber eats which one should i buy moscow or moscow plus
LOL he'll tell you all about the bike....zero replies LOL to any questions asked haha...so umm guess that speaks volumes about the bike then!
I'm Confused because on the motor it says 250w
Can you tow a kids trailer behind on one of these?
is She imitating Moonunit's Valley Girl voice? Well done.
aha! Man, you made my day! I was thinking what is it LOL
Is this the hwoek version which is available on Amazon U.K?the frame is similar and is a nice looking bike.
The German business makes NOTHING, they just buy these bikes from a Chinese manufacturer and have them labeled under their German name business.
If you're an entrepreneur, you can do the same thing. Open your own business, go to a Chinese bike expo and make a deal with a manufacturer you like.
@@billadmond9450 i think they put the made in Germany sticker because its one of a few products that come from China (i wish i could say it like Trump said it lol) that are worthy of a Made in Germany sticker. IMO
@@rokitman5753 That's ok I'm very very happy with the bike, they offer much more than what I paid for it.
Just to mention the free tools they give are chrome vanadium!
Isn't this bike essentially the same as the Magnum Peak?
like 90% the same
Yea just 900 cheaper
Works!
How many kilometres do u get in one charge ?
Is it possible I can get s throttle for mine,it never came with bike.so if anyone tell where I can buy one from much appreciated.also when I alter tyre size I cannot increase speed although tyre size has been changed in settings any help out there thanks
Hi, can be possible use pedals when the battery has gone? thanks
Of course you can, it's like riding a normal bicycle.
@Will Y Buy a road bike or take public transport :)
ncm Aspen plus or this one... =)?
How come this bike is listed on German Amazon for 520 euros?
Frage ich mich 8 Monate später auch gerade...
Want to buy an ebike too and was surprised by the price. Feels weird.
@@Victori4-82 It is a scam 100%. Reported the vendor to Amazon.it and they banned it right away. Unfortunately they still operate under different names.
Bought an M3 and it was finally delivered after multiple attempts. Second day in and the tire just blew out. What a disappointment. I was going to buy a second one but now I just want my money back. The inner tire literally blew at the seams.
whats the real life range?
Meinerseits gibt es ganz klar keine Kaufempfehlung und wir schicken die beiden Fahrräder wieder zurück. Keinen Tag damit gefahren und schon haben wir Probleme ohne Ende. Die Lieferung war zwar schnell und top seitens der Spedition, aber schon beim auspacken und zusammenbauen hat der Akku nicht funktioniert, neuen zugesendet bekommen, lief einwandfrei, aber ich als Kunde möchte schon ein Fahrrad für das ich so viel Geld invistiere das es auch schon eingestellt zur mir nachhause kommt, aber war nicht der Fall.
- Erster Akku hat nicht funktioniert
- Vordere und Hinterre schaltung war komplett falsch eingestellt
- Bremswirkung ist unzureichend selbst nach der richtigen Justierung ungenügend
- Katzenauge Halterung schon abgebrochen warum auch immer...
- Ganzes Pedalgelenk während der Fahrrad einfach rausgebrochen...
Kaufempfehlung? Nein, lieber tiefer in die Tasche greifen... gefährlich... man spart an zu vielen stellen und das merkt man wenn schon bei der ersten Fahrt unzählige Probleme auftauchen die in meinen Augen unzumutbar sind... 10km Probefahrt viel zu wenig...
The Plus is now $1500 US on Amazon.
What brand battery are used?
Does anyone know where I can get a rear cargo rack for this bike, the answers on Amazon say, the bike is versatile and you should be able to fit any rack with an upper center mount, but I have tried two different types yet none fit.
maybe try the amego website or store front if youre near by. They might have it
@@MCAQUIN0 Found one at SF Wheels in San Francisco, the Magnum electric bike which they sell takes the same rack as the Moscow. You can also get it here www.magnumbikes.com/product/ui5-rear-rack/
Ncm Website has them now, screws and I think even the lamps included
@@MCAQUIN0 the Magnum Peak rear rack is made for this frame.
Anyone that has this bike, can you tell me how fast they have had this bike on the flat?
Up to 24 on flat road
Bicycle newbie here. What are the key differences in NCM Milano compared to the Moscow? Is it essentialy the same bike only that one has a nicer city look and perhaps a comfier seat, while the other one better suspension?
how to add a throttle here..
wait what? battery swap?
What size should I get if I’m 6 feet? An I good to go with the 29 inch?
Get the 29.
@@danieljeffares5196 decided to get the 27.5 because the stand over height is 30 inches, on the 29 it’s 32.5 and I don’t want to nut myself everytime I get off the bike 😂😂
@@danielhanson1434 Did you try both before getting the 27.5? Would you do it differently now? I am about your height and I'm considering getting the 29. Thanks
Is that MIPS helmet you are wearing?
Seems like Abus helmet
Can i ride it in rain?
This looks just like the magnum peek
Das ist Korreckt , das NCM wird in Kanada und USA auch unter dem Namen Magnum Peek vertrieben !
That's right, the NCM is distributed in Canada and the US under the name Magnum Peek!
@@Andy-od4fy ok thank you do u ship that one to USA because it's 500 less expensive
Magnum peek
@@andrewhadlington2029 Magnum Peak!
Also it is sold in New Zealand under this name.
Did he mention the distance and the speed of the bike?
You have to check it yourself because everyone will tell a different story.
But I can tell you that this is the biggest battery you can get on an e-bike.
Bill Admond thanks
@@chilean12 The Moscow Plus has a 16Ah battery but you can buy a spare 18Ah battery if you got a big wallet :)
Bill Admond Thank you so much Bill have a great day
Can anyone tell me that can we do uber bike or smth is that bike? it looks like you can do it efficently. and what do u suggest as backup battery?
you can get a battery here: www.leoncycle.com/ncm-moscow-plus-electric-mountain-bike
I suggest the 18Ah battery but check the price first.
Hi , das nenne ich mal ein Klasse und umfassendes Review über das NCM Moscow , leider gibt es ein solches noch nicht in Deutschland bzw auf Deutsch :-(
Hi, that's what I call a class and comprehensive review of the NCM Moscow, unfortunately, there is not such a thing in Germany or in German :-(
Da muss erst mal einer aus Kanada auf die Idee kommen ein Kompetentes Review zu Posten zu einem Bike aus China was in Deutschland vertrieben wird ;-)
First of all, someone from Canada has to come up with the idea to have a competent review on postings to a bike from China, which will be distributed in Germany ;-)
@@Andy-od4fy I am another andy from Canada 69 :)
Wonderful
Why not review its performance on an actual mtn bike ride?
I get the impression itis not suitable for that.
What rack can I buy for this bike?
I found 1 on Amazon that bolts to predrilled holes on the frame. The rack front and taillight for $69 USD
What is the life of the batteries
634wh - around 40 miles max
Anyone have any idea how to get this in the U.S.? I don't see any shipping option. Thanks!
You can get a Magnum Peak in the U.S very simular.
Amazon, I just got one.
@@EnigmaPrime1 have you been able to access the menu and adjust max speed?
Today I’ve got my Moscow E bik Front fork is broken and battery doesn’t turn off light stays always on I’m so disappointed👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Haha, my rear wheel fell apart after riding it for 1 month.
Es ist keine deutsche "marke" die haben lediglich eine briefkastenfirma in deutschland um mit deutschem premiumprodukten zu werben..es kommt wie fast alles aus china...please use the german-english translation for a little true info about ncm (it not means that is a low quality bike but..;) other brakes new fork and a better saddle and it is an "ok" bike
yepp. I bought for 2 months Fitifito 27.5 in Berlin (a very pretty much the same NCM). The same frame, same brakes, same handlebar, same prise (but in euro;-). Not bad thing. Especially in compare to bosch bikes which are twice as expensive (or even three times)!
Das stimmt so nicht ganz , wie bei den meisten Fahrrädern - auch Hochpreisige - kommen die meisten Komponenten aus China oder Taiwan, - diesen Ländern streite ich auch die Kompetenz im Fahrradbau nicht unbedingt ab weil dort nun auch mal viele Fahrräder im Einsatz sind - , desweiteren findet in Deutschland nur die Endmontage statt : Pressemitteilung -> Sangerhausen (dpa) l Der Fahrradhersteller Sachsenring Bike Manufaktur aus dem Südharz hat einen weiteren Großauftrag bekommen. Das Unternehmen fertigt 2019 rund 20.000 Elektroräder der E-Bike-Marke NCM (Hannover), wie die Firma am Donnerstag mitteilte
Das ist falsch. Andere Markenbikes "Made in Germany" haben auch nicht weniger Teile aus China verbaut. In Hannover sitzt die Geschäftsleitung von NCM & Leoncycle. Schau vorbei, nichts mit Briefkastenfirma...
@@chudak_berg That's not true. Fitifito: Mxus-Motor, Kunteng-Controller + Display 😉
@@lustigblickt natürlich ist es richtig, das 99% aller
e-bikes zum großteil mit china-parts bestückt sind(was ja auch nicht schlecht sein muss) trotzalledem existiert weder eine fabrik bzw manufaktur, noch irgendwelche ladengeschäfte von ncm weder in hannover noch anderswo!! es ist lediglich ein showroom (wenn die das mittlerweile auf die kette bekommen haben) und ein lager für die lieferungen aus CHINA in hannover vorzufinden!! ich bin selbst im besitz eines (mittlerweile stillgelegten) moscow+ und habe die letzten jahre einiges mit der "firma" ncm zu tun gehabt...
Ach *~* der rahmen..sehr einzigartig nicht war^^
Can i get this bike in USA
yes
i ordered one in France for 999€
I choosed the normal one because as i'm a motorbiker i always change
the brakes' command : i put the front on the right and rear on the left
and i can't do this with hydraulic (or don't know how)
i'll put feedback when i receive it
so long, lads.
Alors des nouvelles du vélo ?

"You're awesome", is what you meant, but close enough, right?
Bummer it doesn't have a 1/2 twist throttle! Ah welp!
