Yeah, 350w. Tiny. 500w is often considered low power .
250w is the legal limit in Europe. And they do fine.
500w is fine too. Bafang m560 is around there and is very popular, albeit it's a mid drive

I can't speak to this bike, but I have ordered from them before and they delivered before their stated delivery date in my case.

Quote from DelightfulMice483 :
A quick Reddit search shows that the motor is underpowered and had issues with riders above 160lbs 😞

https://www.reddit.com/r/ebikes/c..._36v_350w/

those that know how to self-mod, 48 volts for the win?

we used to do that with e-bike motors a decade ago, overvolt 36v hardware at 48v

most hardware can handle it, it's just that you'd need to either replace the charger or charge the extra battery seperately which I guess the average person is not going to be able to deal with

it's 270$…be happy it even has a motor
I was replying in regards to the claim that a 350w motor requires pedaling — it doesn't.

All you need do is look at something like the JackRabbit XG to see your preconceived notions are fallacious.

Also curious, are these batteries UL listed? Not seeing any info on that aspect.

Wow, those AI reviews aren't even hiding it anymore. One user, Maria38572, gave it five stars because the seat was so adjustable! Jesus...

Perfect for filing an insurance claim for a home or business you no longer want.

Sure it did happen but that very very rarely does happen… it seems to happen with all brands even when it does. The thing to be careful about is the charger…..and that it doesn't over charge and also charge in a fire safe area. Though mostly no one does

Kent bikes are the lowest of low for bikes. Their normal bikes are cheap garbage, even by Walmart standards, and their warranty is meaningless.

How much would it be to upgrade the motor battery etc? Probably not worth it.

It's not. The deal you should be looking at is the Yamaha Crosscore. Of course it's multiples more than this, but the discount is insane and you're going to get an amazing bike with excellent components.

The only upgrades I would consider on this Kent is a suspension fork and hydraulic brakes.


***I meant to address the other poster about upgrading the Kent's motors/battery.

Clearly the Yamaha is in another universe compared to the Kent.

reviews on this bike are laughable and fake. How could a frame fit riders from 5'5"-6'3"? It can't and no frame size specs are listed. ewaste
