Like all other larger batteries, it’s recommended that you throw the battery on the charger every 4-6 weeks so that you don’t allow it to become completely drained. Lithium-ion batteries can experience performance issues once they get to a state of having no charge, so a quick charge every so often will keep your battery healthy long term. Out of the box the manufacturer recommends that you charge the Ebike for a minimum of 4 hours before use, which I started before assembling the bike. True to the manual, after the 4 hour charge time was complete, I was ready to roll with full power available to me. Something to consider with this Ebike is that it is not operated by a throttle like some of the more expensive options on the market.
A few problems I found with the bike are as follows-First, I don’t like how the handle bars are designed because you need a wrench to tighten them up and put them on. This is slightly annoying because other than the tires, everything else is assembled using hex keys (also known as an allen wrench). The wrench built into my multi-tool is made for tires, so it is slightly too large to fit and adjust the handlebars because they used another type of bolt like screw for it. This is a minor problem because I just added a wrench to my backpack repair kit and moved along. Some readers have found this SRAM calculator to be helpful for finding the right tire pressure. Even though the form says it’s for Zipp wheels the results are generally applicable to other wheels too.
Hyper Bike Company has a really large offering for everyone in the family, with bikes for kids and adults. Both the Hyper eBikes and standard bikes are sold exclusively at Walmart so, you can do your searching on their website or Walmart’s website. Both sites will have full product details and descriptions as well as a ton of images of each bike. In total, four models complete the range, each with seamless power transmitted to the rear wheel via a 12-speed drivetrain, SRAM electronic XX Eagle AXS on Extreme models, and SRAM mechanical GX Eagle on Sport models. Proceed to carefully pull the bike out of the box and cut off and remove all the plastic safety caps and cardboard around it. While bike shops are often the best source of information for most things MTB-related, this was clearly a misspoke notion.
I’d say that you can comfortably expect the ride time of your hyper Ebike to live up to the manufacturers description. Hyper states that the MTB Ebike has a battery life of 1 hour or 20 miles and I tested this out to see how my bike fared in the wild. All that was required on my end was installing the handlebars, pedals, and battery. The trouble with ATVs is of course the amount of noise they make when you are using them.
The box itself weighed over 50lbs, so if you aren’t comfortable moving around that much weight, grab a friend to help you bring your bike inside or where you plan to assemble it. Overall, this bike is going to be a perfect addition to camp and our hunting lease. We have two and are looking to secure a couple more to provide all of the hunters at camp the independence to be able to come and go as needed from their tree stands without waking the dead with a loud gas powered engine. Last year we locked in a 320 acre hunting lease in Northern Michigan for whitetail hunting.
I can move thru the orange groves around here so much easier then before. This bike is hyper mountain bike quiet, so I have been able to get close to some of the wildlife roaming in these parts, (wild hogs, turkeys,etc.). I ride this bike almost every day and the battery has not given out on me so far. I have used this bike to help round up my neighbors cows from the orange groves when ever they decide to take a tour.
I tried this for several years, and when I actually checked the pressure with a gauge it varied by 3-5psi despite feeling the same as the prior pump. That discrepancy was too wide for me, and I now use a digital gauge to dial in the numbers before every ride. It adds 1-2 seconds to the ride-prep process, affords me some mental security on the rocks, and provides the ability to more accurately test tires and wheels. The reality is that each new feature has to either increase price or take away from something else to compensate.
It’s easy to get lulled into buying the flashy mountain-styled bikes on store shelves. They always have eye-catching paint jobs, and some are full suspension — all for cheap. But on a mountain bike, weight can really drag down the enjoyment.
Recently, there’s been a trickle down, so features previously only seen on LBS [local bike shop] bikes are creeping into big-box bikes at a fraction of the cost. You also have a large variety of bike choices at big-box stores. There’s usually a bike type for any taste — all on the cheap. As far as capability goes, the mountain bike itself is an easy rider and very comfortable to spend time on riding through the city or on trails. I’m by no means a diehard mountain bike rider, but I did find this bike to be very similar to entry level TREK that I used to have.
The Extreme is a full-suspension electric mountain bike designed for maximum off-road performance, control, and comfort. The Sport and Extreme models are both shod with Pirelli tyres. Hyper Bicycles, Inc. was established in 1990 by former BMX Pro Clay Goldsmid.
