Very popular with drug dealers in the UK.

Return of the light cavalry!

Ok look im pro Ukraine but the bias clearly shows. Russians used bikes earlier in the war and its considered primitive. Ukraine uses bikes and now its a stroke of genius. Hypocrisy runs on both side in this conflict

Armoured BMPs?? ❌ Armoured BMX ✅

Nothing gives you more mobility on the ground than a dirt bike. You can cover more ground in a couple of hours than it takes a 4x4 all day to do the same.

Sorry guys, no more Abrams.

These are not E-bikes but E-motorcycles. An E-bike is a bicycle that gives electric support if you rotate the pedals. The silent part - which in civilian vehicle is a safety issue causing more accidents - is interesting in a military role, however you do need electric infrastructure to recharge and wait a long time for them to recharge. However the silent part is only a thing in regards to dismounts, the crew of an armored vehicle is unlikely to hear a normal motorcycle unless they are above armor with their own engine off.

You only need to see how the Japanese used bikes in WW2 to see how effective they can be.

So when the Russian used bikes, everyone goes "LOL RUSSIA LOSE NO MORE SHOVELS AND TANKS". When Ukraine use it, it's "genius" 🤔🤔

That's Christmas sorted

Being a Livestock Farmer, I have used Quad Bikes practically all of my life, and with their long standing use through out the British Army, I feel that this innovative use of ultra quiet electric propulsion could be applied to military Quad Bikes, thus providing a stealthy ATV that can literally go anywhere whilst being able to carry light stores ie, Small Calibre Ammunition boxes, Food, Water and Spare batteries for Radios and other infantry carried electronics for example. This expanded capability could be extended to Airborne Forces, providing the technique for air dropping by parachute could be refined, in order to allow for the soft low impact landing of electric powered Quad Bikes. Hey, It’s just a thought?

*We built these in Iraq. While we used gas engines we put large mufflers on them. We also had a rack of 12G shot gun tubes on the X-bar with 22 x 12" barrels. We used 3.5" magnum rounds filled with #2 Tungsten carbide shot which is as heavy as Gold and had deadly penetration and good range. The best part is we got real good at aiming while riding, no need to stop and aim your gun which is when 90% of our guys got shot. We used electric solenoids for the firing pins and with simple Adrino chip it would shot 2 rounds a second in order when the trigger was held. The "SHOT-RAIL" as we called it saved lives and made us lethal and fast!*

Ebikes and Pea Shooters AGAINST Drones and Nukes 💥 💥💣💣🚲🤯💥💥💣💥💣

Bike VS Tank 🤣

lmao,ukraine went from tanks,recon inf,drons and heliopters to bikes in just 2 years

I was deployed a few months ago doing exactly this in my daydreams Glad to see other units adopting it now👍🏻

Charging station when you get to the mine😂

Bikes were used along the border in Hong Kong.

I’m ex-infantry (British Army, 1978-1990). I’m a mountain biker. I’ve kind of gotten snobby about emtbs. I’ve got a mate, ex-3 Para. I’m 63, my mate Col who fought in the Falklands rides an emtb and swears by them. He’s older than me. I can easily see how they can be battlefield assets. Be worth looking at cost-benefit. They’re not cheap!

A new game-changer? 🙂

I think these e-bikes are the way more practical alternative than powered exoskeletons.

the comment section 🤣 so many military experts.

Been hunting on my stealth b52 for like 6 years now. Great asset, hard to pedal when battery dies, but hey we all need to be fitter. The motor heats up significantly when loaded, so the bike is easy to spot through thermals.

"Low Battery , Please Charge "

DELFAST is Ukrainian e-bike company based in US. Their bikes got some crazy range and a world record and they help Ukrainian army from the beginning of the war.

Just remember folks, thermal runaway doesn't mean breaking a sweat while retreating😁

Stealth from what...... From thermal visio ? 😂😂😂

Testing ground

How are they charged on front lines?

Thank you.

And even more effective combined with electric F35

Mad max

My grandfather was in Signals during WW2 he would have to lay telephone lines by bike in the desert.

such a great idea I imagine other forces use them for recon and with airborne troops and such but that bike isn't specially adapted to carry that weapon it just has a standard add on a universal rack and post anyone can buy from the company to carry it on i mean if they needed to carry an large anti tank missile launcher or extra missiles or grocery bags

On modern battlefield drones with thermal imaging see every movement of the enemy.

Brilliant idea! What a great ability given to troops.

This is exactly why I picked up a Rawrr Mantis E-moto. 0-50 in 2.9secs lol. So fun to rip around my city. You didn’t mention the Sur Ron they were clearly on

Game changer #87 😂 Look i own both petrol and electric bike, i love both of them but the petrol is the more reliable one. Electric is nice but the range will get you stranded somewhere if you miscalculate. They are tested at 45kph with 75kg driver on flat roads. You start adding equipment and tough terrain you will drain your battery and come back by walk.

Was going to say that terrain initially looks a lot like QLD where I grew up and was glad the stuff we’d developed could be useful for Ukraine Then realised that was the outback

Fpv drones have put an end to this tactic

They are becoming funnier as the time passes

For a long time (40 years) I have wondered why Weasels, trail bikes and now ebikes haven't been used as a highly mobile force at Bn level or Regt/Brigade/TF level. I'm thinking a specialist platoon at Battalion level TOE, mechanised infantry or armoured.

Cycle name plz

Bicycles and motorbikes are been in use for a long time, they have pros (a lot) and cons (a few) now electric motors make possible to merge the best qualities of both; as long as you can swap batteries from a charging station instead of connecting the entire bike to a generator.

це круто довго мучились без коліс дякую слава україні 🇺🇦

this bikes was used a month ago by russians in storming on the Lisichansk front.

it is a significant breakthrough in the battlefield, very inspiring

Yes, everybody on tanks, plaines, apc and you on a bike.

What brand of bike is this? They look awesome.

The only problem with them is reduced range and recharge time. Recharging can be made instant with a modular battery design but charging infrastructure is still needed. Cool af for stealth though.

Everyone: Russia dose something: nuh uh ukraine repeats it: genius

Ocheretyne Love from Scotland 🤍💙❤

Why the pedals tho?

Interested to know from users if the ‘less dust’ claim adds up. Less torque perhaps?

too late, russia use it before ukraine and ukraine's fans call russia "poor soldier with bike", now you using it

The era of scout bikes has begun.

West: look at our new game changers! Electric bikes😎🛵 Putin: (casually knocks out electricity) West: 🚬😮‍💨

This is what trillions of dollers in foreign aid buys you. A dirt bike.

That is Chinese electro bike Sur-Ron, u can buy it in Russian bike shop. Battery works for to 70-90km. Then u have to recharge battery for six hours. Storage with lithium battery will be a goot target, lithium fires well.

Imagine a hybrid of this that could go stealth on approach and ferry thru normal petrol

Even serves as an incendiary device when you want to give it up.

I want one of those bikes, amazing

Когда русские на машинках для гольфа ездят говорят как всё у них плохо Когда украинцы на електро мотоциклах Великолепно 😂

have they not heard of drones?

for those who are interested in that bike : that a Sur Ron Light Bee .... you can buy it for 5k and its street legal in EU thank me later

Awesome!!

So thats why every freaking ebike is out of stock nowadays

Those E bikes would be definitely good for night recon patrols!!

Hold on Sarge, lemme just charge this battery and I’ll continue with my mission…

amazing bikes

Sure looks like a souped up version of the good ol' BMX 😅

Won't be long till there is Mc Donalds on the Battlefield

one word.. Eletric Magnetic Pulse gun

They are game changer

interesting that the Electric Motion Escape X is supplied by Germany. It's made in France and I guess that the bike was built for military purpose solely because else it's not know or common. It's a very cool bike though, slightly more expensive then the chinese ones, but made in Europe and that's awesome!

Not really The Swiss have until recently maintained entire units of bicycle infantry and they were spectacular. They had big old fashioned heavily geared cycles so they could move around independently and they were spectacular. No clue why they sacked the whole concept. These e-bike recon units are great and all, but they have one giant flaw, which dates back to bicycle recon units of WWI and WWII They mostly die. Its a James Bond concept that favours intel over survivability. By all means use ebikes to deliver munitions quickly over rough terrain to precise locations, but if you think ebikes are a solution to recon then consider this one fateful equation: "We think the enemy is over there, please ride your silent bike towards the bad things and tell us what is happening. Dont worry, they wont hear you. You will probably be a mile behind enemy lines before you AND THE ENEMY realise you are there". Recon in light soft skinned vehicles or in scout groups is dangerous enough. Yoloing towards the enemy on an ebike is a new level of "there are no experienced guys in this unit... go figure"

Now I understand how those bikes got there over the trees

Hillarious.

what about e-tanks that shoot death ray laser?

they are really very effective in summer on dry days, at -15 degrees and 3 ft snow they hold for about 12 minutes. but hey, nice to have some copium...

Those bikes are quick and quiet too..

Nice

Just got to wait 3 hours to charge them up .... need to cover the chrome fork legs ,to shiny!

😅 don’t forget you need to charge this bike and must use generator which produces a lot of noise and heat .

It`s the return of the Cavalry :)

And Slava Ykrainie trolls are laughing at Russians on motorcycles.

doUBtLEsS aNotHER sTuNniNg & bRaVe gaME cHaNgER !

Offroad E-scooters are quite useful, too, since they allow carrying a huge backpack and quick dismounting.

😂😂😂when russia uses it is problem They are running out of vehicles

I hope they got big beef 60-70+volt batterys on those things or they are gonna be charging and replacing batterys real fast! and where they gonna recharge when they are doing long runs and dont have any spares?

While in general cool as I was a Krad Melder in the Austrian Army on a KTM its funny to see how they say look great Ukraine is so innovative but few days ago I have seen in the British Media making fun of Russians using Motorcycles so what is it now cool or not 😂

Теперь отступать будет быстрее получаться, молодцы

I don’t think it would do any harm to have a longer seat so that it can take a passenger

Another wonder weapon...

I saw spec ops use these in Afghanistan on our base, i wanted one so bad

60 v surron they have max range of 50 km under low load conditions and take 5 hrs to charge. the battery is not "hot swap" so yea not as reliable as the real thing :(

Very good for reconnaissance ..... yes sure on a battalfield area on a bike you beter watch the ground for your wheels and of curse you have a beter observation view when you speeding on your bike than walking and observe moore area with rotation boddy .... the only think its that you arrive faster .... you can be seeing with a drone if you walk so with a bike..... when de weather come hot also verry good tactic hello guy's i'm here yes just here with the dust i remove one my way....... realy realy realy

Electric bikes that's a great idea

Remind me of german ww2 "military bike" where you can bring 2 panzerfausts inf front of them

Well, in fact those are rarely used by actual troops in the east of ukraine but rather to protect western boarder and catch those men who are willing to escape.
