My only prior experience with the ebike genre was from a product from the PRC Ebike Factory #7 (brand name withheld) with fat 20” tires, so the mindful engineering refinement shines in the Elevate kit. Intuitive install and low number of parts makes for a rewarding assembly experience (but those with two left hands should let a bike shop have the pleasure). The power of a 52V system is real! Insta-grin with every trigger! It flattens the steep climbs and enables you to carry higher speeds with aplomb. However, not sure if it’s by design, but at times the system felt governed (perhaps to protect the motor/battery) but was unable to reach 20mph despite my best efforts. App seems underdeveloped/underwhelming but it could be due to my cell phone version (?). BT connectivity is stable and connects instantly, but the wheel size inputs and configure sliders yield no noticeable changes in performance. This has been the singular best upgrade I’ve made to my Cannondale Bent II and looking forward to seeing more innovations from Bimotal in the future.

Amazing system so far! Great torque and battery efficiency. Only issue is app to motor connectivity through the app. Takes a while to connect and you have to turn the system off and on multiple times to get it to work. Looking forward to the updated battery design with level indicators.

It took five days to ship it after I ordered it, preventing me from biking.

Very good on fire road and comparable with regular ebike but harder on technical uphill with tight turns. A pedal assist component will be handy.

This part does not transfer power from the battery to the motor. We need a replacement. scsargroundteam@gmail.com
