Deal Details
I paid $1298.00 a few months ago and it was on sale then down from the list price of $1498.00.
It was a bargain then and even more so now for $999.00
I'm very impressed with the bike and any questions to Hyper via email have been responded to very quickly (and in proper English).
I've upgraded a few things but it's totally rideable in the woods as-is for the casual MTBer. I've given it some good poundings in downhill rocks and have had no issues.
I got mine through Walmart but you can get the same price directly through Hyper.
There's some good videos on the Tube that convinced me to buy one. The motor is a Vinka mid-drive (E20, I believe) and it has me climbing mountains that I wouldn't have a chance at getting up without help.
You can buy direct from Hyper or through Walmart.

It's a mid-drive. I'm guessing you don't know the difference between mid-drive and hub-drive.
Even $10,000 eMTBS have 250w mid-drives. It's plenty of power for climbing even the steepest mountains.

Wrong, i had the enduro x1 which is 500w. The x2 is 750w+:

eBikes are a much more mature market in eastern countries (China) and so you'll get lowtech/lowspec stuff in NA.

The Luna is a great bike for the $ for sure. But it's 4x the price.
Again, a 250w mid-drive is plenty for getting you up even the steepest mountains and many (most?) very expensive eMTBs have 250w mid-drives. Lots of folks (myself included) would sooner pay $4k for a motorcycle than a bicycle (I have 2 gas dirtbikes).

If I'm going no electric, I'm going none at all. If I'm going electric, I want 35mph throttle assist. I'm pretty sure that goes for 99% of everyone out there.
If you're riding on roads then I agree.
This is a MTB though.
Also, fwiw, you can over-ride the 20mph limit to 28mph on this bike easily (not much point to it for MTBing though). There might also be a throttle kit available.

I own one and was able to go 65 miles using assist 1 using gravel tires with stock gearing. 35 miles using assist 3 is easily doable. I only ride this on the road and eventually swapped the tiny front chainring for a 46 but had to sacrifice the last 2 gears on the rear using the limit screw. I'll replace all that stock drivetrain and wheel crap eventually.

Oh, and like the poster above said, you can indeed hit 28 but I started spinning out even with the 46. You can adjust the tire diameter to trick the computer so theoretically you should be able to go over 30 mph. Personally, I don't trust bikes at those speeds and would feel safer doing 3 times that on a motorcycle.

Found my notes for the assist 1 test...

Mileage at bars - (1st bar) 18.5 - (2nd bar) 33.9 - (3rd bar) 46.9 - (4th bar) 58.8 - (5th bar) 64.5 - (no bars and flashing until cutoff) 66.8

Miles per bar - 18.5 15.4 13.0 11.9 5.7 2.3

As you can see, all bars are not equal and this bike is different than the other Hyper ebikes where the assistance stays the same throughout. Once you get down to 2 bars, you notice that you need add more assist. When you're on the last bar is barely helping and you need to be on assist 5 even for that.

If you are a hardcore rider move on! If you want to get into Ebiking and see if its really worth it this is a good bike to get. I had been riding 3 5-10 mile rides per week, I don't do lots of crazy cliffs or anything, but may do 1200 feet elevation in a ride. I bought this one to see how it did and was very impressed! The suspension is not great, I am not in love with the 7 speed twist shifter, but man this bike is tons of fun! Im 234 with all my gear and this did just fine on all my rides. I haven't done any range tests yet, but believe it should do just fine. I have ordered a thumb shifter, rear shock and a rear tire so I can change to a microshift 10 speed I have kicking around, but that may be all I upgrade. thats about 350 total. I really bought this as a filler until my E69 CF frame gets here and am glad I did

Well said. And it sounds like you bought this for the same reasons that I did, to test the eMBT waters without spending $5k or more. And I think this is a great bike to do that, and more. It's totally MTB capable for most of us in stock form.

And, at this point, I don't know that I need to get a "better" bike for what I'm doing.
I did change the fork (@$220) and a few other personal preferences but am VERY happy with it. And I'm still well under $2k spent.

I couldn't figure out any options for improving the rear shock so I would appreciate any info. on improvements that you might have found.on that front as I'm finding myself choosing to ride some crazy steep rocky downhills.

If you're riding "normal" mountain bike trails then this bike will do you very well without modifications.

Have you changed the shock? If so, could you give a review?

I have heard some discussion about the DNM AO-38RC AO-36RC 165 shock. Several people say good things about i, so I ordered one from Aliexpress and should see it in another week or two. They say it works well to set it softer with a quicker rebound.

Thanks. Let us know if it's worth the time & money.
