QIOLOR TIGER RE

The QIOLOR TIGER RE wraps a 750 W motor in a cafe-racer frame with a round headlight and a long one-rider seat, for solo riders who want retro style and simple mechanics. Choose a 48V 15Ah or 35Ah battery; the brand rates the 35Ah pack for up to 209 km at pedal assist level 1.

Highlights

• 750 W motor with 85 N·m. Peak output is 1100 W, with three assist modes (Eco, Normal, Sport), a half-twist throttle and a default top speed of 32 km/h by the brand's figure.
• Two battery sizes. 48V 15Ah or a removable 48V 35Ah pack (1680 Wh); the 35Ah battery charges in about 10–12 h.
• Hydraulic rear shock. 35 mm of travel under the long seat takes the edge off bumps.
• Dual-piston hydraulic disc brakes. Paired with 20 x 4.0 in fat tires for a wide, steady footprint.
• Single-speed drivetrain. Nothing to shift. The aluminum alloy frame takes a maximum load of 181 kg, and the bike weighs 44.5 kg.

Who it suits

Anyone after long range and a throttle with no gears to fuss over; the fat tires add grip on sand, gravel and snow. Read how fat tires handle winter.

Good to know

• Its 750 W motor is above the 500 W limit for e-bikes in Ontario, Quebec, B.C. and Alberta, so it is sold for private-property use. See the rules by province.
• Range is the brand's figure; speed, hills, rider weight, tire pressure and cold all change it. How to estimate your range.
• Ships free anywhere in Canada (no P.O. boxes).
• Range figures are for the 35Ah battery; the 15Ah pack covers less distance.
