Is it for you?
Best suited to
Off-road riders on farms, private land or sanctioned tracks who want full suspension, fat tyres and serious mid-drive torque for hunting and trail use.
Standout strength
A 160Nm Bafang M615 mid-drive, full suspension and 26 x 4.0 Kenda tyres, with an optional second battery for long days off-road.
The main compromise
Not road legal in Australia as sold, and at around 36kg it is heavy.
Consider something else if
You want to ride on roads or bike paths. EUNORAU's FLASH LITE 2.0 or a 250W fat bike is the legal choice.
Check before you buy
Only ride it on private land or off-road areas where it is allowed. On public roads it would be treated as an unregistered motor vehicle.

Is the EUNORAU FAT-HS (Hunter X8) road legal in Australia?

The EUNORAU FAT-HS (Hunter X8) has a claimed range of about 129 km from its 720Wh battery. Real-world range is usually lower than the claim, since it depends on assist level, rider weight, terrain and wind.

The EUNORAU FAT-HS (Hunter X8) uses a Bafang M615 mid-drive, 1000W motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 160Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
