Dual-Motor Electric Bike: 6 of the Best Powerful E-Bikes

When it comes to off-road rides with an e-bike, few can match the MG740PLUS from Lankeleisi.

With it’s fat tyres, front suspension and disc brakes, it’s perfectly built to tackle varying and challenging terrain, and thanks to the dual motor set up, it can do that with no problems.

With two 1000w high-speed brushless hub motors located in the front and rear wheels, it’s easily got the torque and power to make it up the steep hills. Even when the surface is uneven, these fat tyres will find something to grip on to.

Whilst it’s not the lightest, and some stock components like the saddle could be better, it’s nevertheless a rugged dual motored e-bike. And when all things are considered, for what you get, it’s pretty affordable too.

The dual motor edition of the Volcano from Black Rock is a e-bike for everyday purposes.

Whilst it looks modest, it packs a serious punch for its size. With over 2,500 watts of peak power, it’ll make light work of any hills you might come across in the city.

It also comes with some nice features too, such as an integrated front basket for storage, as well as puncture resistant tyres and front and rear safety lights so that you can see and be seen.

It’s got a 10 year warranty on the motor/s and a 5 year warranty on the battery, meaning you can cycle easy without having to worry too much about any malfunctions.

With its front suspension and custom chunky tyres, it’s a comfortable bike for commuting, light off-road cycling and city rides alike. On top of all that, did we mention that its made in California?

The Grizzly from Ariel Rider might just be the ultimate adventurer when it comes to dual motor e-bikes.

With the option to engage either the front, the rear, or both motors simultaneously, the Grizzly puts you in the driver’s seat when it comes to controlling your power output.

With an innovative full-suspension frame and puncture resistant tyres, it can travel as long as you can. Fortunately now there’s two batteries, meaning it can go even longer! With a range of up to 120 km, that’s more than enough for most people.

With its fat tyres, the Grizzly is extremely comfortable to ride for extended periods of time. It’s a great bike for adventuring, and it’ll really handle all the terrain that you can throw at it.

Whilst it’s got a cool, motorbike style that looks great in the city, this bike excels when its let loose off-road.

Making the list twice, it’s clear that Lankeleisi know a thing or two when it comes to dual motored e-bikes, and the X3000 MAX is the latest demonstration of that.

The X3000 MAX is a folding, dual-motored electric mountain bike. It’s got a front and rear 48V/1000W Motor, delivering a whopping top speed of over 50 km/h. This is no joke considering its size, especially compared to other bikes on this list.

With the 48v 20Ah Samsung battery, you can get a good range of 70 km in full electric mode and 130 km in auxiliary mode. There’s no need for range anxiety when it comes to the X3000.

It folds into a reasonably compact size of 40 x 40 x 30 cm, meaning it can tuck away nicely when its not being used or into the back of a car if you’re planning on taking it somewhere more remote.

At 37 kg, don’t expect to be carrying it with you as a commuter. But what you can expect is an extremely versatile ride that’s quite frankly a lot of fun on loads of different terrains.

The Kodiak AWD from Bakcou is a great, stealthy off-roader for hunting and camping trips alike.

It’s got a 500w hub motor at either end, so whilst its a reasonable climber, it’s really designed so that you can easily get out of any sticky situations when it comes to the terrain. Rear wheel stuck in sand? Not a problem, it’s got the choice to be all wheel drive (as well as front or rear).

It’s got wide 740mm handlebars for added control, as well as aggressive skid-proof wide stance pedals. This bike not be the most powerful on our list, but it’s easy to tame.

It’s also got a really cool camouflage paint job, and so whilst in the city it might not be everyone’s cup of tea, you’ll be grateful when you get it out into the wilderness. For hunting and camping excursions, this bike is an excellent companion.

Part of their specialist Dirt range, the Dirt Dual Motor D1 Pro 4000w from Mootoro is an absolute beast when it comes to off-road cycling.

Don’t be fooled by its compact size, whilst it may look like a fun dirt bike from times past, it’s packing a serious punch. With a 2000w hub motor at either end, it can easily handle any slopes (and probably some jumps) that a typical dirt bike could.

It’s also made for uneven terrain. With its 20″ fat tyres and hi-ten steel frame, it’ll feel sturdy and solid whether you’re on sand, dirt, mud or even snow.

The main drawback is it’s low stature. The bike excels when the rider is stood up and it’s treated like a traditional dirt bike, being ridden aggressively. If you’re tall, you might find extended periods in the saddle to be uncomfortable.

But all things considered, it’s an excellent dual motored electric bike that really shines when being taken off-road. Sure, it can be used in the city, but expect to draw a lot of attention to yourself.
