Thank you,

It would be great to get a comparison to the Urrun if one adds a bike rack and some lights.
I’ve had mine about 2 months now and it’s a Jack of all trades, master of none type of bike. I don’t particularly like it but I like that it can take me anywhere. I’d rather have a specialized bike for each purpose but I only want one bike so it fits that desire very, very well.
@SGuy889 It’s embarrassing how expensive it is. 4600€
👍 Linkglide. Nice to see an ebike specific groupset. Can't wait to see more ❤️
Thanks, Jimbo!! 🖤
Great review. I’ve have an Orbea Vibe H30 EQ which has been excellent for last 2 years now thinking of upgrading to the Kemen to give more scope.
Thank you! The H30 is a great bike but the Kemen is certainly more rugged. Are you UK based?
Great review. Thanks. Long shot question. Any insight into using this bike for a overnighter or 2-3 day off-road trip using a high quality solar panel to recharge (assuming good sun all day). I would basically keep it in low mode to preserve the battery. Maybe 500m or so climbing. Any other variables I missing?
Hi, thanks for getting in touch. I must admit, I have never used a solar panel to charge an e-bike, so I can't comment I'm afraid. Sounds like an excellent trip though! In low power mode I would expect to see a usable range of 50-60miles of mixed terrain and elevation (but there are a lot of variables that can effect this). It sounds like an excellent choice of bike for the trip your describing. If range is a concern, there is also a 250wh range extender that can be fitted to the bike. Let us know how your trip goes. Thanks for watching and commenting. Jason
How tall are you, and which framesize was ist? great video!!!
I'm 5ft8 (173cm) and ride a medium. Thanks for watching! Jason
Thanks for the video. I'm looking for a lightweight hardtail cc ebike. This one sounds interesting. How long did the battery last on your cc ride?
Hi Daniel, thanks for getting in touch. The longest ride I took the Kemen on was 38km with 818m of climbing across the South Downs. I finished with 36% battery remaining. Most of my riding was in eco & trail, I only used boost occasionally, the weather was cold and it was very boggy out there in parts. I weigh 72kg. On a flat commute 80km+ would be achievable. I hope this is helpful. Jason
Is this comparable to the tenways ago x? Or is orbea def the better brand/bike :)?
Between this and the Vado SL what do you reckon is more future proof and better value in terms of components?
nice , still not found a bike to rival my R&M supercharger, maybe you could review it .
Thanks for your comment. We'll see if we can get some bikes from R&M for review.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Adam, we are glad you are enjoying our videos. Cheers, Jason
hi thanks for the review on a nice E all rounder, in general terms is it possible to gauge the life cycle of the battery ?
You're welcome, thanks for taking the time to watch the video. In terms of life cycle, this isn't an exact science as how the battery is looked after will affect the lifespan (i.e. charge cycles, if it is left discharged, temps at which it is operated/stored etc). Also, this particular battery configuration has only been around for circa 18 months so we don't have a long-term test subject to go from. However, in general we tend to see well maintained L-ion batteries last for around 8ish years before they need to be replaced as they no-longer hold sufficient usable charge. This is only a rough guide as we have seen batteries last longer and shorter. Hope this helps.
I noticed there’s a 40 version that might suit my price range better. Would you say the 30 though would be worth the extra money ? Thanks
When your battery dies in 5 years can it be replaced ?
Very nice channel
Thank you! You have excellent taste 😉
Why do you think it's good idea for us to look at you 90% of the video time? 😐
Hi Dzoni, thanks for the feedback. It's appreciated. Jason
looks awful only good for around town.
See what you think of the Tern Orox in comparison! We just uploaded a video about it.
Nope i'm sorry you can get a better deal in the same bike category from a german brand 😏
Which bike?

Canyon Pathlite:ON 4 SUV
Thanks for your comment. Choosing a bike is ultimately, subjective. Personally, I prefer the Kemen, but the Pathlite is also a great option.
