Anyone know anything about this ?
 
Have been looking for an off road e-Bike for a while, wanting something a bit beefy with good performance but still wanting to keep to bike (Not electric motorbike) 750W mountain bike sounds good, only for flat off road, not the hilly stuff.

Does anyone know or has seen one of these ?

Well, it sounds on the website like its a scooter, which usually means no pedals. But they haven't released much information either, really..

If you wanted a real offroad e-bike, the best way to go would probably be to find a chain drive unit that let you mount full suspension, pick a good frame, pack on a little extra voltage and that should do it.

My 408 at 48v had more than enough power to turn off-roading into a real fast ride, and one of the 5-series motors would rip anything you could throw at it to pieces. You could probably get good results out of a rear drive version, the only thing i'd be worried about is the amount of heavy abuse the hub would take, which would be where the suggestion for a chain drive unit would come from. Then again, they might take a lot of abuse, I just haven't gone out to find out :D
