Buddy swears by the Bakcou. He has a quietkat also. I am looking at the Ego one that came out because I can use the same battery as my mower and blower.
I'll be catchin' deers like a steer wrestler on that thing. Multipurpose use; ride with the kids, catchin' deers, hauling the mail, flying through the air like a bird, I can keep going.....Seems to have lots of logic and benefit.Of course you want one you can race with
Well like ya, like ya, like ya dudeI'll be catchin' deers like a steer wrestler on that thing. Multipurpose use; ride with the kids, catchin' deers, hauling the mail, flying through the air like a bird, I can keep going.....Seems to have lots of logic and benefit.
what ever you do don't ride it on the road or you will be the topic for another 7 pages on bike riders and not paying their road tax.
There's several good brands out there. But I will say this. I got my first one at 53 and I'm 61 now. If it quit today I'd be buying another one tomorrow. To me it's the next best thing I've ever bought for hunting besides a weapon. Several of my buddies bought one after I did and they all love them. Some are on their 2nd one like me for an upgrade only. Everyone of our original bikes are still running. My original one is still running fine with the original 8yr old battery! I'm sold on e-bikes myself.
True and then you'll have PETA after you for having a dead deer across your handle bars.
With all that ebike experience, how about telling us that are looking what kind you have used, which to stay away from. I've watched many YouTube videos but would rather hear from someone on tndeer. Only interested in the ones used for hunting and camping.

Glad to hear that you're still able to go the distance. There are those of us that are aging and don't get around like we used to. So we enjoy the use of bikes. One day, you too will be there. So remember this.
So if I do use a ebike on public land I shouldn't put playing card in the spokes?
The ones I've had dealings with of my own are M2S bikes and Rambo Krusader 3.0 bike. M2S's are more affordable and has been a very good bike. I've actually had 2 of them. A 26" Kush and a 24" Step Thru. Both have been very good bikes with a 750 watt drive on them. Only reason I went with a Rambo was buddies of mine got them and I liked the features. The Rambo I got has the All Wheel Drive. It has 500 watt drive hubs on front and back. I wanted something I knew could pull a cart with a deer on it. I've yet to put a deer on the cart but I did load it with 280lbs of pelletized lime and it pulled it fine. I have 91 miles on it and really like it. Battery range seems to be fine. The M2S bike will pull a deer cart loaded as well. I've seen others do it with theirs. Both are very good bikes.
Now I didn't have a Quiet Cat but 3 of my friends did and they had a lot of issues. They went with Rambo's and love them. They have the Krusader 2.0 and the Megatron. That's who got me on them. The Rambos are the stoutest I've seen myself.
That's the only brands I can comment on but there are several brands out there making bikes that can be used for hunting. Some have come down in price with the competition out there and some haven't. Rambo unfortunately doesn't seem to of.

E-bike's are awesome! I borrowed a buddies last year when i went to Iowa, 1.2 miles in and the same back out. Out was all uphill. It was a single motor and did fine (6'3" 210lbs dressed for sub freezing weather). If steep terrain you may look at the dual motor. My brother just bought one but hasn't used it yet, it's a dual motor from Birch e-bikes.
