I was really excited to test the Fantic eMTB and I wasn't disappointed! This bike is amazing and it's definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a great electric bike.
Fantic 1.5, 1.6, 1.8,1.9 2.0 Review and upgrades. XMF, XF1, integra Look the
Fantic Bikes were well ahead of their time in 2016 and they have barely changed upgrades below will really make this a solid bike
Links included are Affiliates
First thing to get is bottle of lock tight the bike wil rattle apart
Blue lock tight amzn.to/3CLWGkU
Park tool allen keys you will not regret these amzn.to/3JykufV
The rear fender it comes with does not work and sprays the stanchion with rocks and mud.
I installed this fender works amazing
Mucky nutzz fender amzn.to/44m6DBw
Fantic bikes really do well with a coil shock. I used a Rockshox, but I would go for Fox for the better damping. Shock size is 205x60 trunion. I stuffed a 205x62.5 worked fine
DHX coil amzn.to/3PzvvS8
Be sure to run a heavier spring than normal the bike rides best with 20-25% sag
I weigh 220 lbs and ran a 600lbs spring it was perfect, calculate off that
Fox steel spring amzn.to/433mMup
If you can't afford a coil use extra volume spacers as the bikes likes to run low sag 20-25%
Comes with 2 small spacers I rode it maxxed out with 1 nar dog and 1 small spacer rode better
Nar dog volume spacers amzn.to/3Nqu45O
Comes with Vittiria Martello tires which is great for a rear tire, but I used a Assegai max grip on front
Maxxis Assegai tire amzn.to/4419Eak
This bike 2021 Fantic 1.7 comes with Mavic Dmax wheel set. Bladed spokes that are not ideal
I recommend spank wheels best bang for the buck
Front 29 inch boost wheel amzn.to/3r2Q0fH
Rear 27.5 boost amzn.to/44gF5NK
Biggest problem with this bike is the long seat tube that is 490mm
Partially externally routed cable (very Italian)
I tried everything to run a cable operated post, but it rubs the shock
Unless you leave 2 inches of the post showing out of the bike
Go wireless long seat tube so run a shorter post than normal
Post is 30.9mm I ran a 150mm and it was perfect fit for me 6’2’’
Wireless dropper post amzn.to/3CN0d2j
Cross country italian made seat not good for DH riding
I recommend this ebike seat
E saddle amzn.to/432L0oq
Comes with 760 bars and 50mm steam
I went longer on the steam to 60mm because of the short reach of the bike
Worked great 60mm raceface steam amzn.to/432fbMK
800mm bars worked great for me Spank is always my first choice best value
800m bars 31.8 amzn.to/43ZbwAB
