Fucare Gemini X review: 28 MPH e-bike with crazy frame!
HTML-код

- The Fucare Gemini X has a wild frame but still (or perhaps as a result) makes for an awesome motorcycle-inspired electric bike. Check out my full written review on Electrek at: electrek.co/?p...

The Gemini X is awesome. I love mine and bought a second for my kid. Popped a strap on soft seat on the rack so my other lil guy can ride along as well. Awesome bike especially for the price.
Let me ask a few questions if you don’t mind?
Hey, this is exactly what I was looking for. Can I add another person to the back? I saw that they have a basket set (3 baskets) and one looked like it had a small back rest on it. I was thinking of adding some kind of cushion to that and having my son (3 years old) ride with me. How did you set yours up? And do you think I'm able to ride in the back seat (I'm 140 pounds) and my hubby ride on the front seat (200 pounds)?
Hey have you tried an off brand baterry on it? I do delivery, I need more juice on it, but buying one is like $550 for just one.
My free advice on e-bike choice:
Even if you never go off-road, you're going to beat the crap out of bike because of the speed and total weight. Therefore, do consider suspension, build quality and design, and tire/wheel durability.
Other considerations: ease of taking the battery on/off (battery theft is a big problem) and cargo toting: as always with bikes, lugging stuff can be a pain.
Do you mean full suspension if doing minor off road or it front suspension enough? Thanks
YAS! Been waiting for more reviews on this one. It's sooo cool
Great review. As someone who is right at their total capacity for weight, I've been searching for an ebike that i can take to work and back. Although this might not be 100% what I'm looking for (pedal assist is a must, trikes are a no), this is getting real close. This is what reviews are for and I appreciate the work you put in here for this.
KBO Ranger might be up your alley. Or the Eunorau Max Cargo or G20. All budget range cargo ebikes.
@@cjaquilino KBO is nice, but not available in eu 😕
@@TheStuartstardustI find that fat tire mini 20 inch (50.8cm) by 4 inch (10.16 cm) and fat tire cruiser 26inch (66.04 cm) by 4 inch (10.16cm) handle the most weight.
All at least rate 136.364 kg (300lb) or 159.425 kg (350lbs) plus capacity.

You always bring the best content, Micah!
I'm searching for a solid ebike and came across your review. I'm also leaving a comment for appreciating the hard work you put into this video to record and narrate your experience with it. Looking forward to the next! ❤
Actually they have a different battery package available that will allow you to have two larger capacity batteries for even more range
Yeah that's great
Where? How do I get that? Have you tried an off brand baterry on it? I do delivery, I need more juice on it mine with affordable price.
Where did you see that?
Nice review as always Micah.
This bike is “unique “ to put it nicely.
Hey Micah, Did I actually win an ebike or was it someone trying to scam me? They wanted me to buy a gift card on dundle or any card to pay for duty fees which I’ve been asked to do before by scammers. And I was asked to communicate with you with the telegram app. Was it really you?
Thanks!
It’s a scammer. The police are en route to his mom’s house now.
@@Electrek Great….get the SOB…please let me knowhat happens. Thanks!
Yeah some scammer tried that with me too but I was already well-versed about scams so it clearly didn’t work.
Wish companies made this form factor but like half size like Honda Grom
How do these bikes deal with getting caught in a rain storm and how many times can you cycle the batteries with charging after each use?? It's a new company and they don't use Samsung batteries for the standard batteries (Arun) type. Arun states only good for 300 cycles and the warranty on this battery for this model is only 180 days..
I didn't think about that. Good question. Hope someone with more knowledge on that can answer because I'm also curious how weather elements are going to affect these different types of ebikes!
Looks like mounts for a front rack are included.
Hey Micah, The scammer sent the same free ebike offer to several of your viewers. He’s asking for a gift card to pay for duty fees and asking people to communicate through telegram. I don’t think you would do that right? Anyway I told him no. A gift is a gift and there should be no charges to recipients. Definitely a scammer using your feed.
I have a question. If the bike runs out of electric range can I just pedal?
Now you can get it with two 15 amp hour battery
The max speed is true, sometimes more than 28mph
how does it do up hill?
Great. I ride in Western PA and it does fine. I weigh 224 lbs and have no issues. Lighter riders would have even better results.
The weld tabs on the front headstock are for a weight bearing front basket. This is a cargo hauler, no doubt.
Looks like the much better adult Mini-Velo style geometry as opposed to the kid style BMX geometry that some companies use.
Great looking bike, but the welds could be cleaner?
Fucare has cheap parts in a very important area tires and brake shoes. My rear tire's inner rim tore and brake shoes went out in less than 3 months and Fucare wouldn't replace them. I did not replace my parts with Fucare's overpriced junk I paid half the price that Fucare charges and I am happy with the results.
What did you use as replacements if you don't mind me asking?
Looks like a nice ebike
Aerial kepler or this what would ya go with 🤔
This bike done took over coming in with two 10amp batteries at the same price of most bikes that don't go have the miles
It’s got two 15 AH batteries now! And that’s standard!
Does the wide width of the frame make pedaling uncomfortable or does it interfere with fast pedaling?
This is not for people who want to pedal.
@@BillOweninOttawa It would be nice to have a e-bike that can do both, ride with and without pedaling.
I love mine, pedaling is not an issue. There is a step through version as well if you are concerned. Honestly you are ghost pedaling at 20mph. For what it's worth I ordered a second one for my kid. That is how good it is👊
I know your comment is old but I ride mine 30 miles a day round trip commute. It pedals just fine. I just hit 1200 miles on mine with only a few minor issues. Rear tire is wearing out faster than the other, rear spokes need occasional tightening and the brakes can be noisy. Pedal assist 5 gives you about 35 mile range with two 10.4 amh batteries 70 miles on assist level 3 . That's with a 224lb rider and 10 lbs of cargo on Hilly terrain. It's a good buy when you catch it on sale. I've had it up to 45mph on a down hill run and your Pedaling like mad to keep up at 28 mph. I tried to install an 11/34 freewheel but the shifter doesn't have enough adjustment to clear the 34 tooth gear. 11 tooth high gear would of solved the Hampster Pedaling issue.
@@biffmalibu3733 A longer rear derailleur would allow the 34 tooth gear to work.
They would do well to mount a 3rd battery under the cargo rack!
Can tell this a year old. 80lb is actually a light e bike.
I'm 6'2" and thinking about buying one , will I fit well enough to pedal and be comfortable on a long ride ?
I've got one also,but the step thru,and I believe they say upto 6'3? I do know it's a 400# weight limit which a lot higher than most all riding out there now....
I have been looking at 3 ebikes this would be my fist bike, any thoughts on Fucare Gemini x, Polarna m6 or the Vitilian i7pro
I just want that bike in India where can I get it
AMAZON HAS IT!
Thanks .
quel pression gonflée les pneus?
Wow look like motor cycle, more speed, so sturdy, strong motor, would get one for me
Riding around my neighborhood I see haha
How mach this bike please tell me
Ohh thank you
whats the price ?
$1899 at fucarebike com
$1800
I just rode one of these .. Meh.. Guy claimed it was 63 lbs.. Maybe without batteries and rack.. My Kepler was much faster and lighter than this. It had great brakes but slow to get cadence sensors and throttle to activate. . it felt ok and it's compact.. Despite weight.
You could crash this bike a few times and it will still work perfect lol
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Es muy buena Ebike en todo terreno extraordinaria con dos baterias pero no es lo que dice la propaganda que con pedal asistido puedes dar entre 45 a 65 millas por bateria solamente me da de 20 a 25 millas pero es maravillosa estoy encantado ,LA RECOMIENDO
lmk when you find something with better specs and price than the ariel rider grizzly….
Plenty with better specs but not at the price. Once you hit the grizzly upgrades are like a strong, onyx RCR or Delfast. All faster and more powerful but at a significant price hike. I like the grizzly a lot on paper, but riding it I did not like how it felt trying to actually pedal.
@@g00fysmiley yes, about 2x the $ for rcr, huck, etc… the pedals keep the cops away and are good for emergencies, a lite workout or helping the motors up long steep hills to prevent overheating…but are mainly for show…some of those bikes are nearing the price of a zero fx…🤪
@@nemoxero the delfast was a surprisingly good pedal bike with the bike seat option. Still too much though
that's $3000 lmao
Looks like the old Puch frame
my friend(wife) weighs more than 110, so thats a dealbreaker
Ave boop
Non pedal assisted E-bikes are illegal here in Norway. I am a bit amazed that bikes with pure throttle is still legal elsewhere. The accident statistics on throttle driven bikes are like insane.
its usually throttle to 20mph without pedaling ,then 28mph with pedaling for you class 3. any faster is "off road" . Where do you find the accident stats ? Curious .
I believe the accidents are due to not going as fast as the cars in town (35mph) because the facts are that the people in their cars are looking at a phone as much as where they are going. And that’s coming from someone that was a true ebike commuter that was hit by a car. 2016
For that much money the batteries should be Samsung.
BAD LINK ON TOP IN DESCRIPTION
Ohhhh ❤️🧡💛💚💙 WOOOOOOOOOWWWWWW…
Thanks for posting $2,000 by used Vespa scooter
Dollars is a bit much but got to pay for what you pay you got to get what you pay for and anything cheaper than that probably ain't worth buying $2,000 bad price but I wonder if they have
95% of the world do not know what mph means.
Miles per hour
The channel is American, what do you expect. That's like going on a European video and complaining that it's in kmh. Look it up. Use google, you'll need your head removed from your rectum first.
To expensive to purchase in Canada more then double the price nice bike bur definitely not worth close to 3 grand after import and taxes if they would ship direct to Canada and drop the price significantly they would have a huge fan base but seem this company doesn't care about future sales only the show me the money now ........but just not at that Canadian price ! To bad would have done very well in Canada !
2200cad on amazon b4 tax
Its a little smelly even with deoderant.
Anybody know if i buy this bike is it heavy to lift in first floor through stairs ? Thanks if someone suggest me or give me any info ?
It's heavy. Going up steps would be tough.
whats the range on throttle only on this??
around 40 miles
Around 60 miles for the current one they are selling as of March 2023
