Jasion X-Hunter

The Jasion X-Hunter is a folding fat-tire e-bike with suspension at both ends: a 180 mm adjustable fork and a four-link Horst-link rear. It folds to 43.3 x 23.6 x 32.7 in and weighs 32.2 kg, so it can live in a closet, a condo locker or a car trunk between rides.

Highlights

• Geared hub motor: 1400 W at peak with 85 N·m of torque; Jasion gives no continuous rating for this model. A twist throttle and cadence-sensing pedal assist control it.
• Quick-release battery: 48V 13Ah (624 Wh), sealed to IPX-6 by the brand's claim and rated for up to 113 km; charging takes 5–6 h.
• Brakes and gears: mechanical discs on 160 mm rotors front and rear, and a Shimano 7-speed drivetrain.
• Tires and speed: puncture-resistant 20 x 4.0 in fat tires and a top speed of 48 km/h by the brand's figure.
• Comfort and kit: a dual-shock saddle, an LED headlight, a tail light that flashes under braking, a rear rack and an LCD display.

Who it suits

Riders short on storage who still want a bike for sandy paths, snow and trails; Jasion fits it to riders from 5'3" to 6'4". Weighing folding against full-size? Read folding vs full-size e-bikes.

Good to know

• 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).
• Jasion's spec table rates the maximum load at 181 kg, but another section of its page says 150 kg; plan around the lower number.
