  • The Bianchi T-Tronik C-Type is a refined step-thru city ebike with everything you need for commuting, including plastic fenders and chain cover, a sleek rear rack, excellent integrated lights, puncture resistant reflective tires, and a suspension fork. It's a Class 1 electric bike with a 250 watt Mid-Drive motor. This means it has a maximum assisted speed of20 mph (32 km/h), and no throttle. It comes with a comfortable backswept handlebar, adjustable angle stem, ergonomic grips, and two frame size options. Powerful hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors are easy to actuate, and offer adjustable reach levers for different hand sizes. Both wheels offer quick release for easy maintenance and transport. Custom downtube-integrated battery keeps weight low and center, can be charged on and off the frame. Two year comprehensive warranty, high quality Shimano mid-motor should last, these tend to be lightweight, efficient, and quieter than similar ebike motors. Power button is located on the frame tube instead of the button pad. No bottle cage bosses on this frame, might need an aftermarket adapter or handlebar cup holder instead. Comes with a relatively slow 1.5 amp charger vs. 2+ on most other ebikes. Optional Shimano E-Tube smartphone app provides some diagnostics and tuning, no USB charge port on the bike. Battery charge port is low on the frame, the battery cover doesn't lock in place.

    Very informative review with lots of specific information. Thanks!

    Beautiful coverage and content per usual, Court! You’re a true credit to the ebike community. Full of information, and honest opinion-based caveats on many features. I always enjoy watching your coverage, even if the bike isn’t available for me locally.

    Started watching your vids when I was choosing an e. Bike. Now I have the bike I wanted I'm still obsessed with these reviews on all the different E. Bikes out there . Love how fast the technology in the e. Bike world is changing. When e. Bikes first came on the scene years ago there was not a great deal of info on them. Now with the power of You tube there is so much info. Keep up the great work that you do .👍

    Thanks to your informative review, I am now the very happy owner of a Bianchi T Tronic C Type. I look forward to many hours of cycling here in beautiful Brittany, France. 😊

    As someone who loves spending time outdoors, I'm always on the lookout for fun and unique ways to explore nature. That's why I was so excited to try out an Addmotor e-bike

      This video is about a Bianchi ebike, no? What model did you try out?

    • @ElectricBikeReview

      Perhaps it's just a paid account trying to piggyback exposure? I'll keep an eye on it.

    Nice review thanks. How are the Sunrace gears compared say to lower end (Altus?) Shimano? And how about the Radius(?) brakes? Would you need to budget for upgrades if you live in a hilly area, do you reckon? Hard to tell without a long term review I guess.

    Great review as all ways. I always wonder how you find someone to hold your camera hahaha.

    • @ElectricBikeReview
      @ElectricBikeReview  Před rokem +1

      Haha! Thanks, I do my best... usually just ask a friendly person who is out walking around :) it's more fun if I have a friend there with me, or a company rep, but strangers are usually willing to help if I ask nicely. I try to be as low impact and authentic as possible when filming vs. turning it into a commercial or music video ;)

    Hi guys I bought the T-Tronik T, a very similar E-bike to the one. I have a complaint: sometimes the assistance turns OFF while I'm riding (display used to mention a W30 error ) . Does somebody know WHY?

    • @ahmedosman9352
      @ahmedosman9352 Před měsícem

      Hey, I ordered the same bike as yours, haven't received it yet tho. Can you tell me your experience with it so far?

  • @letsgoOs1002
    @letsgoOs1002 Před rokem

    At this price point it is so close to the gazelle it's copying, like what advantages do you get?

    • @ElectricBikeReview
      @ElectricBikeReview  Před rokem

      I've noticed that there are many similar choices around this price point. You could find something from Gazelle, CUBE, BULLS, and others. You might prefer one drive system to another (Shimano vs. Bosch vs. Brose), or have a dealer nearby, or just prefer the color scheme and accessories. It's just more choice, which isn't a bad thing, it helps to bring prices down :)

    I noticed that you ride off curves why ? Do you own the bike?

    • @MD-cy6pe
      @MD-cy6pe Před rokem +2

      who cares if he rides off curves? it's built for it.

    • @302QuestSwap
      @302QuestSwap Před rokem +1

      Is riding off curves going to break it? If it does, that bike is probably garbage lol.

    I'm glad your not riding a throttle bike my friend 😂🖐😑👍how you been ? Yea its Raining in Santa Cruz today .what's your name ?

    The battery cover is an obvious fail. What were the designers thinking?

    • @ElectricBikeReview
      @ElectricBikeReview  Před rokem

      It gave me pause based on the added weight, but in some ways it is a more premium solution. Metal will be tougher than plastic, the color will age with the rest of the frame (since it uses the same material), it fits nicely.

    • @mancello
      @mancello Před rokem +1

      ​@@ElectricBikeReviewI was actually referring to being able to remove the battery cover without disengaging the lock.

    It looks like a cube.

    • @ElectricBikeReview
      @ElectricBikeReview  Před rokem +2

      Yeah, it kind of does. CUBE has done a nice job with their products. To me, this ebike is less unique than the other Bianchi models, but the price point is good and the configuration is pretty nice. I like the wider tires, reinforced rims, multiple sizes etc.

  • @sawyerpac9878
    @sawyerpac9878 Před rokem

    And do you should be riding that bike out in the rain? That's not good 😗✋👎☂️🌂🌨

    • @karenelliott879
      @karenelliott879 Před rokem +1

      Ebikes are designed to handle riding in the rain. Not usually an issue.
