is the half cab recon really a dirt bike with pedals?
« on: April 29, 2020, 11:03:30 PM »

They said this bike was like a dirt bike with pedals. The bike has 320 ft lbs of torque and around 18 horsepower. I wanted to know if you can ride it at a motocross track and go off the jumps like they do on dirt bikes or would it come up short? Is a gas dirt bike more powerful than this ebike?

Most dirtbikes will be more powerful and have a lot more suspension travel with different wheels sizes, they quote wheel torque where as gas bikes quote engine torque so I don't really know how 320ft/lbs compares. You could take it on a dirt bike and probably get round fine but you probably won't win any races against even a 125 2 stroke.
