You mention 230 lbs. How tall are you? How might this be for a 6' 1" 220 lb person? Is this class 2? Thanks for the review.

The HAOQI Cheetah is an amazing budget friendly bike that rivals those that costs 3 times as much such as the QuietKat Apex. It will be tough to find many electric bikes which have a bigger battery capacity and costs less than the HAOQI Cheetah. Twelve hundred watt hours is substantial for riding on a electric bike all day. A concern on the HAOQI Cheetah is that it takes 6-9 hours to fully charge. The HAOQI Cheetah should’ve taken 3-4.5 hours at least.

A bigger 3.0 amp charger would have been nice for sure. I would have liked maybe the 2.0 charger for the 2nd battery and a 3.0 charger for the main battery.

I don't understand with dual batteries how you only got 31 miles. Seems very short for the amount of wH the two batteries provide. I would change to trigger shifter available on Amazon for around $18.00 and install an adjustable handlebar stem to bring the bars up and back for more comfortable ride As for the regenerative braking I don't know how that could be done with a geared hub motor. I also am wondering if there are any setting available via the display to adjust the pedal assist levels etc. Does anyone know what cells are used in the battery packs, that may have something to do with the poor range performance.

I am assuming the Battery Management System (BMS) is not the best on this bike. Regenerative braking hasn't been mastered yet so that's useless on an e-bike in my opinion.

Does anyone know about the brake bleed refill ? What oil do you use. A mineral oil. Or actual brake oil ? I emailed the Haoqi. They responded with actual oil. But anything I found on KZitem. Mineral oil is being used for Shimano gears. Just wanted to know if anyone has dealt with this.

Any idea if you can charge the battery while you're riding? Thinking about strapping an Anker 555 to the rear rack for an additional kilowatt of battery capacity. I'd love to see faster charging and LiFePO4 batteries. Although the lower energy density would result lower capacity... The increased charge cycle rating would be nice.

That question is over my pay grade. hahahaha. I know the regenerative charging it has thru braking is not enough to supply sufficient power back to the batter to charge it up.

Nomad 1. It’s still in my top 3 cadence sensor bikes. The cheetah has a much farther reach than the Nomad and a half twist throttle. Im more of a thumb throttle kind of guy. Plus, I just dig the looks of the Nomad.

Only 1 charger for someone who rides for distance is a con and I see why you need 2 batteries because it gives you very low distance compared to cheaper bikes . My Himiway cruiser can get me almost 30 miles throttle only at aprox. 28 mph for $1500

I have been looking at this bike but it discourages me to see they have already cheepened it up since most of the reviews came out. It now has a no name fork, floppy plastic fenders, and a different rack. Those are just the obvious changes, so you have to wonder what isn't obvious.

I'm relatively new to e-bikes and I've never heard of this brand. I'm a fatty and looking to change that so I need the 400 lb weight capacity. Comparing this to the Velotric Nomad. Looks like they have a pretty good Easter sale.

That's a tough choice. I love my Velotric Nomad. If you are looking to lose some weight, I would choose a thumb throttle over a 1/2 twist throttle. The thumb throttle has me wanting to pedal more.

Yep your fat gut hangs tooo far forward… not made for Big guys where the handle bars are not adjustable so you can sit upright. Really bad choice for big guys like me. Pretty stupid to make a bike to handle the weight and forget the ergonomics of the people riding it. Fail on no adjustable handlebars. Really, how hard would it be to make a bike where the handlebars are closer to the seat?

You need trailer with petrol generator to charge your batteries. If you like ride instead play buy Defender S with 2 or 3 batteries. Susspension is so great eats the most of energy from you and batteries really small.
