When you look for the best electric bike, you need to be aware of the features you are going for. The Biktrix Juggernaut Classic is of exceptional quality with a high-end feature set that is great for heavy people and heavier riders, that being how it became the best ebikes for heavy riders. With a lot of love for the 1000 watt Bafang mid-drive turbo motor, which can go up to 32 miles per hour.

Durability & Build Quality
This is also an incredibly durable bicycle, with a 6061 aluminum frame just like the Addmotor Motan, and highly adjustable seat post. Though the Velo plush saddle is not rigid but is rather comfortable, it is on the narrower side which may not suit all consumers. Additionally, this bike is on the heavier side at 75 pounds, That could make it somewhat frustrating to carry as you move it to and from storage. The full suspension fork is a RockShox Bluto fat tire specific fork while the rear suspension features 100mm of travel and some preload adjustment. The Bafang control center on the Juggernaut displays pretty much everything including current speed, top speed, average speed, range, battery level, pedal assist mode, wattage output and more. More importantly to those who want to use it, reviews indicated they could read it in direct sunlight unlike the Ariel Rider Ebike.
Performance (Speed & Acceleration)
The suspension and fat tires really give it a rugged quality that can handle anything, and the powerful motor is really something that can leave you speechless as when you hit it’s top speed around 28mph. The wide fat tires are the perfect partner to the suspension as the pair together make the lighter bumps disappear.

Range & Battery
Powering the bike and it’s front and rear light is a 48v 14ah lithium ion battery pack. In case you wanted more juice, Biktrix offers battery upgrades on the bike to both a 17ah and a 21ah. The battery has a power button and an LED display read out on it so you can check to see around how much power is left.
Safety features
The Tektro dual piston hydraulic brakes are incredibly safe, passing all of Biktrix stop tests with ease, and the 330-pound max load capacity was also tested by verified purchasers of this electric bike.
Value
The Ultra FS is the sister bike to the populer Juggernaut HD so while the Ultra isn’t as fancy nore do they have the same bells and whistles but still remains a high quality e bike. The free shipping is really a benefit as at it’s cost the added fees would hurt that much more.
Biktrix Juggernaut Classic Bike Wrap Up
Not everyone needs a rear rack but not everyone needs a detailed display on their Ebike, that’s to say while the bike can compete even with bikes like the Muller E Bike the main flaw mentioned is not that serious if you’re in the market for a mid price range Ebike.
