Key Specifications:

  • Performance: Powered by a 1500W brushless motor (peak) delivering 90 Nm of torque, allowing it to reach a top speed of 32 MPH.
  • Battery & Range: It comes in two variants:
    • Cruiser (Standard): 48V 15Ah battery with up to 65 miles of range.
    • Adventure (Plus): 48V 25Ah battery with up to 100 miles of range.
  • Suspension & Tires: Features a full suspension setup (front fork and rear shocks) and 20″ x 4.0″ puncture-resistant fat tires, providing a smooth ride over gravel, sand, or bumpy city streets.
  • Load Capacity: Built with a heavy-duty frame capable of supporting up to 450 lbs, making it suitable for larger riders or carrying cargo.
  • Drivetrain: Uses a Shimano 7-speed gear system, giving you flexibility when pedaling without motor assistance or tackling steep hills.

Features:

  • Moped Design: Includes a long, padded bench-style seat and a front “gas tank” style storage compartment (on certain trims).
  • Safety & Tech: Equipped with dual disc brakes, a large LCD display for tracking speed and battery life, and a bright LED headlight for night riding.

Summary: The TST R002 is essentially a “budget-friendly beast.” It is ideal for riders who want the look and feel of a small motorcycle but with the accessibility and eco-friendliness of an e-bike. At its current promotional price point (often around $799–$1,099), it offers significant power-per-dollar compared to many competitors. I didnt like the brakes as they were only mechanical and noit hydraulic. Loved the mag wheels though!
