A full sized fat tire cargo capable electric bike with optional heavy duty front rack, rear rack, passenger seat and pegs, child seat, second battery pack for extended rides, and more!
Available in one frame size with sloped top tube for easy mounting and standover, three refined color choices, sold direct and at dealers. Decent 8-speed drivetrain, cadence sensing pedal assist, trigger throttle.
Streamlined smartphone app allows for trip planning with GPS, locking the bike, and adjusting from Class 2 to Class 3 high speed performance. Excellent Wellgo pedals, saddle with handle, and locking ergonomic grips.
Fat tires provide stability and float, basic suspension fork improves comfort off-road, and the hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors have motor inhibitors for safety. Includes plastic fenders and integrated headlight, optional rear light with rack. Separate keys required for the dual battery option, charger is light and compact but kind of slow, bike is very heavy.

In our review of the Blix Ultra, we found that this aggressive-looking e-bike fills such a role in the company’s lineup, and is a bit of
The Ultra is largely customizable to the needs of its rider. This includes the option for an additional rear battery which extends the Ultra’s range, and many optional accessories for additional cargo/passenger capacity.
With Bluetooth connectivity, the Ultra can switch easily between Class 2 and Class 3 speeds through the Blix Bike app.
For those looking for speed, the Ultra has steady acceleration and can reach high top speeds even at low PAS settings.
Fat tires and a front suspension give the Ultra off-road capability.
The Ultra features an aggressive visual design that matches its speed and power, while also providing a functional middle ground between a high step and step thru frame.
All of the Ultra’s controls are well-placed and easy to reach from the grips.
With an optional cargo rack in place, the Ultra’s motor and PAS system feel tuned to move added weight.
The Ultra’s minimalistic display keeps size down, but also limits the amount of information immediately available.
A longer wheelbase means greater stability, but also a larger turning radius.
