    I weigh 224 lbs & my Kepler hit 41.5 mph on it's first full charge on a flat road. I'm lucky to hit 34 mph now, after going over 600 miles total.
    Thanks for your vid.

    Wired e bikes 60v 40 amp controller pulls over 2000 watts and destroys the Kepler on hills. Another CZcamsr had a comparison.

    Been wanting a Kepler for awhile now, looks so fun, just slightly out of my price range at the moment. Maybe they'll come out with a 2.0 and drop this one like 500 bucks like the aventon aventure. That's my hope at least!

    The kepler Is a great bike, very well balanced where pedaling adds just the right amount if power. Any more power and pedaling starts to feel useless.

    Nice hill climb tests ! Kepler is a beast for sure! What's the max watts you've seen on display?

      Mine always hits 1,325 watts but never over. I've never seen anyone report seeing 1,800 watts peak as AR claims it has.

      @@SmokeyTreats I’d bet you the battery they are using or the BMS can’t discharge at 33amps. Doesn’t matter what the motor says, the controller, battery, and BMS must be sized appropriately. Very expensive to have a high performance battery pack so I’m suspicious since so many are not seeing 1800w.

    I have a I7pro and think it's a great ebike for the money 💰. But looking for a good cruiser and hopefully I can fit on this model cause I'm only 5'3" but really like the reviews of this model 😄

      Hmmm, your going to struggle getting on/off it. Its tall even for me. Look at the Troxus Explorer Step Thru as an alternative.

      ​@@johnnysager8899 I'm 6' & old, but it's hard for me to mount my low step Kepler. Have to do it in two parts; the first getting my foot to the bar, then I have to lift my leg with my hand to get it to go over. Probably should exercise to get my legs to stretch like they used to; just too lazy... LoL

    Hi I am still leaning towards the Wired 60v coming out in May. That was my first choice. Or the 52X

  • @poopingwhilestanding5801

    Compared to the Troxus Explorer when it was on sale, would you say the Kepler is worth $650 more? I'm digging the Troxus, and compared to Aventon's Aventure, beats it IMO. The torque on the Aventure 2 would be nice, however....but not for the price increase and lower battery.

    • @ChrisCrossed

      Yes as long as you’ll fit on the Kepler, it’s a taller ebike

  • @kevinnashskitchen3517

    Lucky for me, I have absolutely no hills anywhere.. So the Kepler destroys all other bikes everywhere I go.😁

  • @kevinnashskitchen3517

    If you take a Kepler motor out of its casing and show it next to a 750 watt Bafang rear hub motor, I bet it's exactly the same dimensions. Just saying..😝

      I can def feel the diff between 750 annd 1000
