I have a Lectric 1.0 with a 10.5 ah battery. I made the following improvements: Wired in a 20 ah battery, installed an air suspension fork, replaced the telescoping stem and handlebars with a treadless BMX handlebar set up, installed 180 mm rotors and line-pull hydraulic brakes, and a Suntour NCX suspension seat post, and installed an 11-34 tooth freewheel. It rides great with these improvements. However, the braking is poor. I like this Walkee H6 bike. I like the extra battery set up, the beefier hydraulic brakes, and the dual suspension. I don't think the seat post suspension is necessary, and I don't like the thumb throttle on the left side. My Lectric has walk mode, which I use sometimes to walk up steep hills or stairs. I never use cruise control. I would seriously consider this Walkee ebike if I was going to buy one.
Good comments! I think they'll help deepen people's understanding in several areas. I was initially skeptical about the left-hand throttle, too. In practice, though, having to juggle both shifting and throttle with the right hand is not good. I got used to the left position in minutes. I usually ride with index and middle fingers over the brake levers, and third and little fingers gripping the handlebars. This gives me instant front and rear braking while maintaining enough steering control to be safe, especially in rocky or uneven terrain. (I have a few nasty scars from before I smartened up and adopted this... 😕)
Def good price for a Full Suspension Folder with 35AH pushing a 750W motor! At 1600Watts is wringing it out for pwr too! 180mm Hydraulic brakes important for stopping the 90 lb bike plus rider(s)! I LIKE IT 💙
I ordered the H6 Max. I'm looking forward to riding this bike. I already have a few things ready for it when it arrives. 1 - Turn signals. These are a must have accessory because I live and commute to and from work in a semi rural town 20 miles west of Erie, PA year round. Helps other drivers know your intent when riding in the dark. 2 - BMX handlebars and stem. I won't be folding my bike except to remove, or install the optional 2nd battery. 3 - Tires I rarely go off road, so I ordered a set of street tires and will keep the original tires for winter and swap out as needed for the seasons. I still can't decide on swapping the front crank set for at least a 52 tooth. that's all for now. Happy riding everyone!
Thanks for sharing. I think your choices are very-well thought out. The 52T chainring is a very good idea. We've done the same. I would suggest a left-hand mirror and a flashing rear light (if your turn signals don't provide the function). I think you're going to like it a lot. 😊
@@ebike_reviews I already have those items. Sorry I didn't mention them in my last post. I just swapped them over from my old e bike to my new one. Now, my next modification will be the rear shocks. The H6 Max rear shocks are too stiff. It's like riding a hardtail. I also swapped the saddle for one that is sprung and more cushy.
I recently purchased H6 So far so good oh I like the bike it’s very powerful it climbs it’s a little heavy I’m still filling it up with a bag and also I purchase from Amazon a water bottle holder that is a strap with a bag for the handlebars so far so good.
I put over 9000 miles on my Ecotric fat tire bike, my third battery is dying so I am looking to upgrade instead of buying another battery. I made so many videos on my Ecotric, they should pay me to be their ambassador LOL I am trying to determine if I should stay with Ecotric, or change. I really like the longer mileage on this bike and the faster speeds. I did ride over 40 mph on my Ecotric, but that was down some serious hills. Usually my top speed is around 28-30. This model seems like it may be faster, and with 2 batteries I am sure the range is more. Decisions, decisions 😀
I'm on the fence with purchasing the X3 Pro OR the H6. I'm not crazy about the 90lbs of the H6 but love everything else about it. Which would you recommend?
H6/H9: lower standover height; upright riding for less strain on arm and palms; longer range; more torque from smaller wheels; higher payload; more compact when folded. X3: lower weight; better suited to pedaling at higher speeds; smoother ride on uneven surfaces, more traditional look (wife thinks it's "more manly") 🫤 I rode both, but now prefer the H9/H6.
The duel battery makes the bike to cumbersome, what's needed are batteries with higher capacities/energy density, so you can have a more range. Hopefully solid state or some other new battery technology will be available soon for e-bikes.
Are you the person who put together a detailed manual for the H6ST?. IF SO CAN I get a link to it. My manual is waterdamaged and I don't remember all of the operational features. What do u need to make contact with me, Thank you Tim
The bike weighs just over 80lb, unnoticeable under power, of course. It's available both with and without the second battery. You might also be interested in the new 2o23 X3 Pro. (new review posted)
Great review! How much does it weigh without the batteries or seat/seat post? I would have to carry it up stairs and don't mind taking it in two trips. Also, is this the same design as the current model? I currently see H6(32ah) 750w, H6 S (36ah) 1000w and H6 Max (40ah) 1000w
When we were staying at place where we wanted to keep the bike on the deck, I used the walk mode to have it power itself up 14 stairs. It was doable, although if I lost it on the stairs it wouldn't be good. The brakes were enough to walk it back down. The frame handle is a big help as well. I don't think I'd fold it, as it would get really unwieldy.
Another excellent review but sadly again no mention of the bikes torque rating which is the real measure of the bike’s true power especially for heavier riders or those wiry real hills to climb or trailers to pull! Torque ratings please at top of list.
Good point! The bike is rated as 80 nm. This means more with the 20" wheels, as they gets more power to the ground. This bike was easily getting my 200lb+ weight, plus about 10lb in my carry bag up 30+ degree rocky grades in mountain riding. In areas where it was too dicey to ride, the walk mode carried the bike up while I guided it on foot. The extra battery sustained day-long rides in mountain terrain, where my the 14AH battery in my usual eBike would have certainly left me stranded or heading home early.

Go with the H6 or H9, they have a lower stand-over height, and you can dismount by lifting your leg over the main tube instead of swinging over the back of the bike. Also the upright riding position will take a lot of strain off your arms and palms. (My parameters are close to yours, and both these bikes will fit you perfectly.) The much-larger batteries also give a ton of power and range, so you can ride anywhere with younger and fitter companions, and the bike can get you there and home effortlessly. You can dial-your-own cardio, contributing as much pedal effort as suits you. BTW, you and I are representative of the majority of Wallke's riders... 😊 I hope you enjoy riding your new eBike as much as I have!
Do you know if the batteries are UL rated? Just worried because they’re a Chinese company and I’ve been reading way too many stories about cheap ebike batteries catching fire.
I don't think they sprung for UL testing, but the cells are Samsung 2170s, so top-of-the-line. I don't think about fire danger on my bikes any more than I do about my car (and it's full of gasoline). 😀
Just ordered one for my wife, the StepThrough model. Got if for $1599, which is a good discount to the normal MSRP. Should get here Friday, I hope it’s as good as the reviews. My only concern that it’s a new Chinese company
Good move! BTW, Wallke has been around for at least six years. They're provided uniformly excellent service for a number of buyers I know or have heard from. I hope you enjoy your new Wallke bike as much as we have. 😊
Can u ride this bike during winter seasons, or can it even withstand cold winter? Because right now im still searching for e bikes that are good quality that can be use during winter seasons and also has good water resistance, i prefer also long range and alll terrain ebikes, if you guys know or have a brand suggestions please it would be helpful, i mean this ebike wallke H6 is not bad though but im still searching for best options, thanks 🙏
The Wallke H9 AWD is the new big brother to the H6, adding front drive, and I can tell you it's head-and-shoulders above the RWD bikes on sand and soft surfaces. The tires are intended for sand and snow, and I've seen other reviews where people are riding in snow. Also the H9 has what can be described as a motorcycle headlight at 1000 lumens if you're out past dusk. I'd worry about the batteries in freezing temperatures where lithium-ion batteries don't do as well. (I don't have any specific experience, but I'm a tech guy, and this is my field.). In cold weather, certainly, I'd bring the batteries in for charging and storage, and then back out for riding. The larger battery under the seat drops in easily, and would make this a trivial operation.
$2499....? At $1199 I can buy 2 - EUY F6 750W48V18AH with Mag Wheels, Luggage Rack and money left over! $1099 for an eAhora Azarias 750W 32MPH 48V 18AH... With full suspension! $200 buys a 2nd battery...
@@USAMOTORHOME EUY F6 has a seat post shock which is better than a Super73 'S' series! $199 Extra 18AH battery puts me at 36AH total for $1399 vs $2499 for the Wallke H6's 35AH...
I tested the H6 Max (dual batteries) with 35Ahr total. Power-only riding range depends on: terrain; surface; speed; tire pressure; suspension settings; and other factors, so no definitive range can be known. However, I typically ride 7 or 12 miles a day, and charge the bike about twice per week. I mostly pedal for cardio when I ride (I'd estimate 60/40 motor to pedal) but some days feel a little more lazy and let the bike do most of the work. Charge level has only gone below 50% when I was on a 25-mile ride in demanding mountain terrain.
Thanks for the detail and clarity of your review. I'm assuming the bike has cadence sensing to turn the motor on and off, but the way you describe it, it sounds more natural like torque sensing. Can you elaborate on this aspect of the bike? Thanks...
The sensor on my 2021 X3 Pro knows when you're pedaling and engages to motor to the limit of the mode number you've selected. This can have the effect of making the ride a series of surges, powering up and then coasting back down. This isn't unpleasant, but I use the cruise function to keep the speed even. On the H6 and new X3, the pedaling compares the pedal rate to the current speed and adds power to increase it until the pedal rate drops. It's a lot more sophisticated than the usual controllers, making riding more natural and pleasurable. You get a much more consistent ride speed. This is especially important considering the the power and torque of this bike.
Smaller tires don't magically create more torque in the motor, but they certainly do get more of it to the ground. The difference in angular force means the bike can move more weight up a given grade, or will move the same weight up a steeper grade. There's a reason torque is measured in ft lb -- it's to quantify the turning force available at a particular distance from the shaft center. In practice the H6 practically leaps up grades that bog down my bike with 24" wheels. 😊
@@MPjustaman Smaller tires does not Make more Torque! It allows a small increase in they Torque your engine makes to be applied to the ground , because the tire is turning at more RPMS, it is a wash though because you lose top end speed as a result
All the Wallke eBike orders will be shipped from our California warehouse. Our eBike products are usually shipped within 1-2 business days using FedEx.
can this be ridden in rainy weather? where I live it rains randomly and often. It could be sunny and bright with clear skies and suddenly start raining lmao.
The bike is rated for rain. However an older model sat outside when we sheltered from about two hours of a record rain that flooded the area. At the end, the display had filled with water and the bike was inoperative. I was able to recover it by shaking and blowing out as much water as I could, and then inserting it into a pound of rice and gently heating it in the oven at 160. We now carry ziplock bags to cover the displays in case of rain.
nice now I got three to choose from , still waiting for some kind of review from in a mountain town like mine , live in Kearny az. And the nearest town to this town is eight miles away .don`t want to run out of power in the desert .
LOL - you're certainly right! 😀 I recently reviewed the H9 AWD with a 60AHr battery, 1750W total power, coil-over shocks, and more. I towed a trailer with 100lbs of payload, up grades on rough road. I didn't need to charge it for more than two weeks! It's a monster!
I wish I could use my h6 dual battery e bike. I bought it off amazon, and a few months there were broken welds on the frame. I contacted support and they sent me another frame to me here in Arizona in a box that by the time I got it a month later was so beaten and broken that AFTER I paid a bike company $200 to replace the entire frame, we found out the one that was sent was bent at the hinge on the body of the frame so it would not close properly and it wasn't possible to lock the frame closed. I desperately tried for months to get wallke to help me, and provided the written statement from the bike company invoice saying the hinge on the frame was bent causing the bike to not be able to be locked in the closed position, and the bike was unsafe to use. Wallke refused to believe me or the bike shop, and refused to do anything other than send a new locking mechanism, which would not fix the fact that the hinge on the frame, not the locking mechanism is bent. I regret spending $2500 on a bike I got to use less than a dozen times. I would seriously avoid this company.
For a foldable, I’d take a Lectric XP 2.0 with a extra battery. For a 26” tire, the Ariel Rider Kepler. They’re both cheaper and widely recognized. Google can be your friend!
I owned XP 2.0 and love the bike, but it seems too small for me and lacks range. The Lectric step-trough with a duo battery is still woman's style, they should add one more battery on XP 2.0
More than 2k I believe. If you're going to get an ebike you should definitely consider getting an nta helmet like xnito too, most helmets don't protect you on ebikes
LOL - I wish! Wallke treated me very well when I bought my first one on Amazon three years ago. It was showing an intermittent error code during riding, and I was dreading what it would take to get it addressed. I finally got on it, and at 8PM on a Thursday night, fired off an email describing the problem. Ten minutes later, Wallke replied and asked if they could phone me. A few minutes later, I was on a facetime call with a tech so he could see the bike. A week later, a courier package arrived with a replacement wiring harness, and I was able to replace it easily. I then put around 1100 trouble-free miles on that bike before replacing it with the 2023 version last year. I'd been doing RUclips videos on other topics, and decided to share my ebike experiences with others. My wife and I have purchased four Wallke eBikes (two X3s, A7, H6) and Wallke has lent me two bikes to review (ST and A9). They offered me a commission if I sold any bikes for them, but I turned that down. At the time of that first purchase, I researched all the bikes I could find, and Wallke seemed to check all the boxes. The online reviews at the time were pretty positive, so I and a buddy both got them. We had a LOT of fun, and my wife decided to join in and got her own. Since, then we've ridden daily, and it's the best part of our day. We've taken the bikes on vacation in the mountains, and riding the horse trails is a real experience. There are about a dozen Wallke eBikes amongst our family and friends. So -- I'm not paid by Wallke, but I AM an enthusiast! 😀
That's good advice! The bike helmet I have certainly saved me on a zero-speed fall where I likely would have suffered a serious head injury. However, running close to 30 on a street with cars puts risk in a whole new level. I also don't ride off-road without long pants. (Experienced off-road riders will be familiar with dirt tattoos.)
LOL - I wish! I do love the bike, and I have to give it it's due. I did buy one of the bikes on Amazon, and the other directly from Wallke, so it's all with my own money. 😊
@@pocketjokers1 Yes uAmazon you have protection if there’s any problems through third-party you get a refund what else do you want do you want it for free
@@edwardcudeyro5113 Don't think I ever said anything about getting anything for FREE my friend !!!! The Bike comes with a Warranty from Wallke !! I'm surely not going to pay 150.00 more for it to buy it thru Amazon ! Do as you wish my friend it's your money to waste as you see fit !!
Sizing up the chainring to 52T is a good idea. It doesn't cost much and can be done in about 20 minutes. I don't think I've seen a bike that comes with turn signals, but there are some good add-on units you can get at Amazon. Good feedback.
@@ebike_reviews I actually tried doing it and finding a chainring that matches the mounting holes seems impossible. It requires some extra work than just slapping it on. I get why the chainring is so small, to accommodate the compactness of a folding bike, but they could’ve figured it out. They still haven’t made this improvement on their latest bike. Turn signals would just be a nice touch.
This is a straight up bought n paid for add ! With the extra weight and lack of wattage I refuse to believe it will perform well in a hilly wet environment! Your admission of a long relationship with the company is proof enough that it’s a paid for add
Sigh -- No, I bought the X3 Pro on Amazon with my own money. I liked the bike so much I did the original review for my other channel. I sent Wallke feedback and suggestions, which they mostly integrated into the subsequent models, and they sent the resulting bike hoping I'd review it, too. I liked the bike so much, I ponied up to buy it. (My wife is starting to troll me about my eBike "collection"...😐)
@@ebike_reviews do a hilly ride video with a distance review and admit it is a dry conditions and flatland use vehicle, please make me wrong! I’m looking for a dependable ebike that’s waterproof and good on hilly roads, I live in central Oregon and only ride bikes, power is a issue on hills

Not Fathers Ebike, Ha ha, He had a Real Motorcycle this is a toy just waiting to be Throne off Bike trails and be Required to be Inspected and Licensed, THANKS.
Oh - it got tested on hills alright. We spent a week in mountain and forest terrain. The bike has been on horse trails, some forest roads that need dedicated off-road vehicles to navigate, a flooding creek, and on steep rocky trails where a crash required the first-aid kit for my riding partner. I guarantee there are hard-core riders that ride more challenging trails, but this bike was agile powerful enough to overcome everything we dared to ride. When we're back up there, the H6 is definitely the bike I'll be riding.
These e-bikes pushing the envelope will ruin it for all e-bikes. The law is 20 mph for class 1 and 2 and 28 mph for a class 3 which is peddle assist no throttle.
You're talking like a controller upgrade? A person has to wonder about getting more speed. I'm looking at doing a 60t chainring to let me pedal more on setting 3. That's around 24 mph. I doubt I'll get anything on there that lets me effectively pedal at 30 mph. It's crazy how many niche bikes there are now. But I find this really solid for a throttle oriented bike.
@@shawnmuench The more I research it, the more the idea gets tweaked. I ended up purchasing an H6 Max for 1700 with a coupon. Thinking of a three battery 72V parallel system that utilizes the Datex3 battery blender, and a phaserunner controller tuned to 1400w when using low volt batteries, and up to 2000 or so with an all 72v setup. The problem with lower V batteries is that they generate more amps with running higher wattage. The datex blender gets expensive the higher amperage needed, so trying to keep it under 30 amps.

I rode a lectric before buying this and it's a lot better. Although-- I'll say the H6 has weird handlebars and I'll probably get lower ones. 12" I guess. I wouldn't pay MSRP for the H6, but I paid the 1500 for the sale and it's been good. Just got new pedals cause the stock ones are very slippery.
You would adjust your top speed in the settings to adjust the power in each PAS level.. As opposed to being able to adjust power% of each PAS level.. It works in a pinch. I do that too speed adjustment on my Ariel Rider Kepler to reduce the PAS level speeds in all 9 when going out on group rides.. Then increase top speed setting to get higher speeds in all 9 levels when I am alone zipping around.. It's a fix that you can play around with.

Good folding bike. Not sure about all types of bikes how it ranks.. 👍
Can u ride this bike during winter seasons, or can it even withstand cold winter? Because right now im still searching for e bikes that are good quality that can be use during winter seasons and also has good water resistance, i prefer also long range and alll terrain ebikes, if you guys know or have a brand suggestions please it would be helpful, i mean this ebike wallke H6 is not bad though but im still searching for best options, thanks 🙏
The Wallke H9 AWD is the new big brother to the H6, adding front drive, and I can tell you it's head-and-shoulders above the RWD bikes on sand and soft surfaces. The tires are intended for sand and snow, and I've seen other reviews where people are riding in snow. Also the H9 has what can be described as a motorcycle headlight at 1000 lumens if you're out past dusk. I'd worry about the batteries in freezing temperatures where lithium-ion batteries don't do as well. (I don't have any specific experience, but I'm a tech guy, and this is my field.). In cold weather, certainly, I'd bring the batteries in for charging and storage, and then back out for riding. The larger battery under the seat drops in easily, and would make this a trivial operation.
Not bad for a folding bike 👍
$2499....? At $1199 I can buy 2 - EUY F6 750W48V18AH with Mag Wheels, Luggage Rack and money left over!
$1099 for an eAhora Azarias 750W 32MPH 48V 18AH... With full suspension! $200 buys a 2nd battery...
I know, but the F-6 has no rear suspension and has low range
@@USAMOTORHOME EUY F6 has a seat post shock which is better than a Super73 'S' series! $199 Extra 18AH battery puts me at 36AH total for $1399 vs $2499 for the Wallke H6's 35AH...
Hello, Whats the max range on throttle only?
I tested the H6 Max (dual batteries) with 35Ahr total. Power-only riding range depends on: terrain; surface; speed; tire pressure; suspension settings; and other factors, so no definitive range can be known. However, I typically ride 7 or 12 miles a day, and charge the bike about twice per week. I mostly pedal for cardio when I ride (I'd estimate 60/40 motor to pedal) but some days feel a little more lazy and let the bike do most of the work. Charge level has only gone below 50% when I was on a 25-mile ride in demanding mountain terrain.
Thanks for the detail and clarity of your review. I'm assuming the bike has cadence sensing to turn the motor on and off, but the way you describe it, it sounds more natural like torque sensing. Can you elaborate on this aspect of the bike? Thanks...
The sensor on my 2021 X3 Pro knows when you're pedaling and engages to motor to the limit of the mode number you've selected. This can have the effect of making the ride a series of surges, powering up and then coasting back down. This isn't unpleasant, but I use the cruise function to keep the speed even. On the H6 and new X3, the pedaling compares the pedal rate to the current speed and adds power to increase it until the pedal rate drops. It's a lot more sophisticated than the usual controllers, making riding more natural and pleasurable. You get a much more consistent ride speed. This is especially important considering the the power and torque of this bike.
Smaller tires does not give you more Torque! It gives you faster acceleration! My friend .
TRUE
Yes it does
Smaller tires don't magically create more torque in the motor, but they certainly do get more of it to the ground. The difference in angular force means the bike can move more weight up a given grade, or will move the same weight up a steeper grade. There's a reason torque is measured in ft lb -- it's to quantify the turning force available at a particular distance from the shaft center. In practice the H6 practically leaps up grades that bog down my bike with 24" wheels. 😊
Smaller gearing (wheels) equals more TORQUE to the rear tire. 🤦🏼♂️
@@MPjustaman Smaller tires does not Make more Torque! It allows a small increase in they Torque your engine makes to be applied to the ground , because the tire is turning at more RPMS, it is a wash though because you lose top end speed as a result
How long does it take to get one from Wallke ? Do they ship from inside USA or overseas?
All the Wallke eBike orders will be shipped from our California warehouse. Our eBike products are usually shipped within 1-2 business days using FedEx.
@Otis Nothing ❓
@@wallkeebike Thank you very much
@@wallkeebike Thank you appreciate your response I will be making my decision on wich bike I want in a couple weeks
They shipped in from China to California so basically it’s about a seven day shipment when you purchase it from Amazon
can this be ridden in rainy weather? where I live it rains randomly and often. It could be sunny and bright with clear skies and suddenly start raining lmao.
The bike is rated for rain. However an older model sat outside when we sheltered from about two hours of a record rain that flooded the area. At the end, the display had filled with water and the bike was inoperative. I was able to recover it by shaking and blowing out as much water as I could, and then inserting it into a pound of rice and gently heating it in the oven at 160. We now carry ziplock bags to cover the displays in case of rain.
@@ebike_reviews what about the motor, how did that hold up?
nice now I got three to choose from , still waiting for some kind of review from in a mountain town like mine , live in Kearny az. And the nearest town to this town is eight miles away .don`t want to run out of power in the desert .
Is there two batteries on this bike?
@@ronaldbooth6841 the pic shows one in the frame and one behind the seat .
Hey bud I live in Mayor AZ. I use this as my computer bike each day. Using PAS 3 I can do 30 miles and still have 60% battery.
Hope that helps
@Ronald Booth Yes there is
LOL -- Did the mountain testing in Prescott. Should have ridden to Mayer...
Great review. Good job
Looks like a decent well thought out Ebike. However I like power. 2000watt minimum.
Como puedo conseguir una bici de este tipo
Let's talk about the Walkie H9 1000 watt rear 750 watt front....now who's the king of the ebike 😂
LOL - you're certainly right! 😀 I recently reviewed the H9 AWD with a 60AHr battery, 1750W total power, coil-over shocks, and more. I towed a trailer with 100lbs of payload, up grades on rough road. I didn't need to charge it for more than two weeks! It's a monster!
I wish I could use my h6 dual battery e bike. I bought it off amazon, and a few months there were broken welds on the frame. I contacted support and they sent me another frame to me here in Arizona in a box that by the time I got it a month later was so beaten and broken that AFTER I paid a bike company $200 to replace the entire frame, we found out the one that was sent was bent at the hinge on the body of the frame so it would not close properly and it wasn't possible to lock the frame closed. I desperately tried for months to get wallke to help me, and provided the written statement from the bike company invoice saying the hinge on the frame was bent causing the bike to not be able to be locked in the closed position, and the bike was unsafe to use. Wallke refused to believe me or the bike shop, and refused to do anything other than send a new locking mechanism, which would not fix the fact that the hinge on the frame, not the locking mechanism is bent. I regret spending $2500 on a bike I got to use less than a dozen times. I would seriously avoid this company.
For a foldable, I’d take a Lectric XP 2.0 with a extra battery. For a 26” tire, the Ariel Rider Kepler. They’re both cheaper and widely recognized. Google can be your friend!
I owned XP 2.0 and love the bike, but it seems too small for me and lacks range. The Lectric step-trough with a duo battery is still woman's style, they should add one more battery on XP 2.0
I've got a Lectric XP 2.0 and really like it, but I wish it had rear suspension.
@@Bdub1952 "They minimize all cuss that way Lectric can sell cheaper"
@@USAMOTORHOME At a grand the 2.0 was the deal of the century.
@@Bdub1952 YES BUT TOO SMALL FOR ME Wallkee H6 is bigger
How much did they pay u mate?
More than 2k I believe. If you're going to get an ebike you should definitely consider getting an nta helmet like xnito too, most helmets don't protect you on ebikes
LOL - I wish! Wallke treated me very well when I bought my first one on Amazon three years ago. It was showing an intermittent error code during riding, and I was dreading what it would take to get it addressed. I finally got on it, and at 8PM on a Thursday night, fired off an email describing the problem. Ten minutes later, Wallke replied and asked if they could phone me. A few minutes later, I was on a facetime call with a tech so he could see the bike. A week later, a courier package arrived with a replacement wiring harness, and I was able to replace it easily.
I then put around 1100 trouble-free miles on that bike before replacing it with the 2023 version last year. I'd been doing RUclips videos on other topics, and decided to share my ebike experiences with others. My wife and I have purchased four Wallke eBikes (two X3s, A7, H6) and Wallke has lent me two bikes to review (ST and A9). They offered me a commission if I sold any bikes for them, but I turned that down.
At the time of that first purchase, I researched all the bikes I could find, and Wallke seemed to check all the boxes. The online reviews at the time were pretty positive, so I and a buddy both got them. We had a LOT of fun, and my wife decided to join in and got her own. Since, then we've ridden daily, and it's the best part of our day. We've taken the bikes on vacation in the mountains, and riding the horse trails is a real experience. There are about a dozen Wallke eBikes amongst our family and friends.
So -- I'm not paid by Wallke, but I AM an enthusiast! 😀
That's good advice! The bike helmet I have certainly saved me on a zero-speed fall where I likely would have suffered a serious head injury. However, running close to 30 on a street with cars puts risk in a whole new level. I also don't ride off-road without long pants. (Experienced off-road riders will be familiar with dirt tattoos.)
Bike is a little pricey, if they put a $400 discount on it they would sell a lot
Does it have a horn?
Yes.
Sounds like a informercial he got paid just like jd powers
LOL - I wish! I do love the bike, and I have to give it it's due. I did buy one of the bikes on Amazon, and the other directly from Wallke, so it's all with my own money. 😊
How can I order this bike.
You can place your order through Wallke online store or Wallke Amazon store.
Amazon
@@edwardcudeyro5113 if you purchase thru Amazon you have to pay tax on it , will cost you more money
@@pocketjokers1 Yes uAmazon you have protection if there’s any problems through third-party you get a refund what else do you want do you want it for free
@@edwardcudeyro5113 Don't think I ever said anything about getting anything for FREE my friend !!!! The Bike comes with a Warranty from Wallke !! I'm surely not going to pay 150.00 more for it to buy it thru Amazon ! Do as you wish my friend it's your money to waste as you see fit !!
No weight?
It's heavy like all the other e-bikes
The crank wheel is still too small and no turn signals included.
Sizing up the chainring to 52T is a good idea. It doesn't cost much and can be done in about 20 minutes. I don't think I've seen a bike that comes with turn signals, but there are some good add-on units you can get at Amazon. Good feedback.
@@ebike_reviews I actually tried doing it and finding a chainring that matches the mounting holes seems impossible. It requires some extra work than just slapping it on. I get why the chainring is so small, to accommodate the compactness of a folding bike, but they could’ve figured it out. They still haven’t made this improvement on their latest bike.
Turn signals would just be a nice touch.
I didnt catch the price out the door? All im all.
The 2023 X3 Pro has a new lower price at 1,999 MSRP. Wallke frequently has seasonal promotions where you can get it for less, do I'd watch the site.
🔥🔥😳👍👍😊
Similar to the Ariel Grizzly beast ebike
I think the Grizzly is AWD with 2-1000w motors
TOO EXPENSIVE•
If you compared our Wallke H6 to any other dual battery ebike products on the market, you will know this product is worth.
👍……….
This is a straight up bought n paid for add ! With the extra weight and lack of wattage I refuse to believe it will perform well in a hilly wet environment! Your admission of a long relationship with the company is proof enough that it’s a paid for add
Sigh -- No, I bought the X3 Pro on Amazon with my own money. I liked the bike so much I did the original review for my other channel. I sent Wallke feedback and suggestions, which they mostly integrated into the subsequent models, and they sent the resulting bike hoping I'd review it, too. I liked the bike so much, I ponied up to buy it. (My wife is starting to troll me about my eBike "collection"...😐)
@@ebike_reviews do a hilly ride video with a distance review and admit it is a dry conditions and flatland use vehicle, please make me wrong! I’m looking for a dependable ebike that’s waterproof and good on hilly roads, I live in central Oregon and only ride bikes, power is a issue on hills

Hater.
I need you to test it on hills shit
Oh - it got tested on hills alright. We spent a week in mountain and forest terrain. The bike has been on horse trails, some forest roads that need dedicated off-road vehicles to navigate, a flooding creek, and on steep rocky trails where a crash required the first-aid kit for my riding partner. I guarantee there are hard-core riders that ride more challenging trails, but this bike was agile powerful enough to overcome everything we dared to ride. When we're back up there, the H6 is definitely the bike I'll be riding.
These e-bikes pushing the envelope will ruin it for all e-bikes.
The law is 20 mph for class 1 and 2 and 28 mph for a class 3 which is peddle assist no throttle.
Practically nobody owns this thing and even less people have modded it... I wanna mod this thing so bad.
You're talking like a controller upgrade? A person has to wonder about getting more speed.
I'm looking at doing a 60t chainring to let me pedal more on setting 3. That's around 24 mph. I doubt I'll get anything on there that lets me effectively pedal at 30 mph.
It's crazy how many niche bikes there are now. But I find this really solid for a throttle oriented bike.
@@shawnmuench The more I research it, the more the idea gets tweaked. I ended up purchasing an H6 Max for 1700 with a coupon. Thinking of a three battery 72V parallel system that utilizes the Datex3 battery blender, and a phaserunner controller tuned to 1400w when using low volt batteries, and up to 2000 or so with an all 72v setup. The problem with lower V batteries is that they generate more amps with running higher wattage. The datex blender gets expensive the higher amperage needed, so trying to keep it under 30 amps.
@@redbatch100 huh looks like they just released that! cool beans!
The H9 is way better
Yup - the new H9 AWD is the H6 on steroids... 😵💫. Check out my review....

@Bothand Nether So because you suck at building ebikes it's a bad bike?
That logic tracks lmfao
This is just a rip off of the lectric bike 😊
It's better
They aren't even in the same ballpark 🤣
I rode a lectric before buying this and it's a lot better. Although-- I'll say the H6 has weird handlebars and I'll probably get lower ones. 12" I guess. I wouldn't pay MSRP for the H6, but I paid the 1500 for the sale and it's been good. Just got new pedals cause the stock ones are very slippery.
This is the worst review I've ever seen
In his description of specs and features he did a great job.. You probably don't like his voice over style.
You would adjust your top speed in the settings to adjust the power in each PAS level.. As opposed to being able to adjust power% of each PAS level.. It works in a pinch. I do that too speed adjustment on my Ariel Rider Kepler to reduce the PAS level speeds in all 9 when going out on group rides.. Then increase top speed setting to get higher speeds in all 9 levels when I am alone zipping around.. It's a fix that you can play around with.
He can always use a realistic computerized human voice as a voice over.
You complain too much. The best review for me.
