JackRabbit XG Pro review: A faster, more powerful micro e-bike built for off-roading

UsGloriously covered Launching Jackrabbit Og2 Pro and XG Pro, which adds more domain and power to the composition of the Micro E-Bike from Jackrabbit. With a few weeks in the test XG Pro Myself, I can mean that from the point of view of the person who does the saddle time, I could think of doing things that you didn’t think in an electronic micro bike.

To understand what I mean, see my video review of Jackrabbit XG Pro below.

Or continue for my full written thoughts about this fun, high -performance ride that is much smaller in the body of a microbial device.

What new and different?

Don’t forget to check My article on set up To see what makes this model different from the original Jackrabbit XG. But in short, the XG Pro is a more powerful engine, larger brakes, tall handles, wider tires, faster speeds, larger batteries, and generally feel a large version.

Many of these updates make this issue a very competitive bike. Now, the XG Pro is also competing in performance.

Previously, Jackrabbit’s big claim was that its bikes were easier. They were smaller and lighter while still offering a speed of 20 miles per hour, and that was a great advantage. However, you paid it with limited range and low power. However, Jackrabbit XG has upgraded this range to more than 48 miles (77 km) with the insert not only one but two but two cases BIG-BOY JACKABIT batteries. It is approximately 2.5 times the capacity of standard airline batteries offered by Jackrabbit and the scope is greater than what you find in many heavier electronic bicycles with similar battery capacity.

Jackrabbit XG Pro: seriously powerful and Turkish

I don’t have a lot of hills to test when riding in Florida, but I can say that if I don’t care (undoubtedly with short wheels), the 749W engine would easily rotate from me and so the torque is remarkable.

I can also tell you that I pulled about 100 pounds (45kg) of kayak and camping equipment for about 10 miles, including sand brides that may not have been crazy, but a serious test of bike’s ability to climb out of the road at a slower speed (ie without a moment).

So let’s just say that there is power and torque there, and you don’t want to try to climb a medium hill.

At the same time, a small, lightweight trace (for an electronic bike) £ 37 meant that I could close it to my kayak and camp it on a non -residential island that is unavailable by a motor boat. This is a completely other story. Maybe I have to write a separate article about that adventure?

The maximum speed of 20 miles per hour (32 km / h) has also increased to 24 miles per hour (39 km / h) from previous Jackrabbit models, although it is only out of the road. To access this, you cannot simply appear in the display menu and select “Fore speed, please”. You first need to access Jackrabbit and sign a signed that includes more than 18 years of confirmation, and you are committed to using the actual package, out -of -road scenarios. From there, you get access to the lock, which is so complicated that no one will never discover it randomly. If it is explicitly told how to do this (which I’m not sure how it will eventually not leak online), you can’t spend it from the button.

In unlocked mode, the maximum speed of 24 miles per hour Jackrabbit XG Pro is higher than what they are looking for, it really leaves 749 watts for peak performance.

How well does it ride?

There is no suspension on the bike (unless you use extra suspension seat post), but you get 2.8 -inch tires that put more air between you and the road. This leads to a better ride as much as you would expect in a small, non -suspension bike.

If you do the real out of the real road, which I recommend because of how fun it is in Jackrabbit XG Pro, anyway you get up from saddle anyway. In the same way you drop the chair on the mountain bike because you don’t use it anyway, you stand on the nails anyway and allow your bent legs to suspend your bent legs as you approach the larger obstacles.

With the Knobbier off -road tires, you will also get better, though the little bike wants to be so hard that I am still worried about losing it in a few corners on the sand. In my own experiment, I have covered a variety of lands, finding grassland farms for my favorite place to ride to XG Pro. It was also good in the sand, but the so loose ground also felt that I felt a little squirrel, and the short wheel base was probably involved. But to the meadow rangelands to keep the soil loose together, I can fly at maximum speed and feel solid.

Who is Jackrabbit XG Pro for?

I still think the XG Pro has a lot of room to ride on the road with the credit off the road. As a passenger, I can see the XG Pro a fast and long -range option for an extremely suitable microbial device. LED lights, including night, make it very visible to other road users, and small size means that it can accumulate in an office or apartment.

In fact, I really love the rotating handle that rotates 90 degrees for more compact storage. By rotating the rods and folding, the whole bike is 7 inches (18 cm) width width, something you can never claim with an electronic bike.

So, in my opinion, XG Pro for anyone who wants to enjoy the hiking paths of the same bike they use for work or class, and doesn’t have its living space for anything bigger. You have to enjoy a different perspective, because it will always be a unique and somewhat weird ride compared to what we know more of a “ordinary” bike or scooter.

Is this an electronic bike?

This brings me to a common question about all the Jacabitis. Are they really electronic bikes? By definition, probably not. Jackrabbits have no pedal, instead you decide to choose lighter and more compact leg nails. This means that Jackrabbit is technically sitting in the electric scooter class.

However, the company refers to it as a micro E bike, and I tend to largely agree that it is riding and feel like a bike, especially given that most Americans use their electronic valves almost all the time. These days, the pedal on most electronic bikes is just the most glorious legs that can rotate, so Jackrabbit basically said, “Enough with charade”, and this ability rarely.

Fixed foundations in Jackrabbit destroys the definition of the bike, but I can still certify Jackrabbit Feeling Like a bike, even if you can’t pedal it. Like a bike, it relies on rotation and feels like a bike when mounting on barriers because it uses the bike handle and wheels instead of smaller scooters and wheels.

Almost like Romeo and Juliet’s stereotype, this is essentially a rose by any other situation. It still smells sweet, and still rides well.

Is Jackrabbit XG Pro worth it?

I have said this before, and again: If you are looking for the best dollar deal per watt, continue. Jackrabbit will never be your answer. These bikes have premiums. XG Pro is a new flagship model and its price is impressive in the weather US $ 2,249Human Og2 $ 1,249 It seems to be financially responsible by comparison.

But then again, Jackrabbit is not trying to compete at the price. Despite the matching of other popular electronic bikes about power, speed and domain, it will always be a more expensive alternative because of the unique design of the company that needs to invest in its original components. They do not use the shelf and battery frames. Instead, they have invested hard work in new engineering designs, and are not mentioning the tools to do so. You cannot ask for innovation at a medium price.

For anyone in the budget, there are cheaper ways to gain the same speed, power and domain. But there are no lighter methods to do it, either easier or (in my opinion) cooling methods. And that’s the whole point Jackrabbit. These bicycles are originally designed as a suitable solution for college students on the campus. And after many years and many new models, the company has become a fun solution for many different people who have the same basic needs: a small, yet powerful vehicle such as an electronic bike to get too much space. Now, all from students to their professionals ride, and among RVERs, boat owners, private aircraft pilots, and anyone who needs an extraordinary ride.

So, in my opinion, the question of whether Jackrabbit XG Pro is valuable is to conclude whether you want these capabilities in this way. You can find it for cheaper, but it won’t be small or lightweight or smooth. This is a magic sauce in Jackrabbit, and when you get it, you feel that magic.
