The Jetson Adventure eBike that May Change the Way You View Electronic Cycles

Jetson Adventure electric bike is designed for the toughest terrain but also offers a comfortable ride. Its 9 levels of pedal assist provide you with a range of options to customize your ride. The front shock suspension and shock-absorbing seat keep you on the road while providing some cushioning from the bumps.

The LCD display is placed in an easily accessible location so that you can see all pertinent information at a glance without having to take your eyes off the road. If you are looking for an electrical mountain bicycle, Jetson Adventure should be at the top of your list

Frame / Wheels / Size

The smaller, more powerful bike is made from durable aluminum and comes in one size — 32”. With a wheel size of 26 inches, you’ll be able to go further on the road or trails than with a traditional road bike.

Jetson Battery / Motor

The battery on this bike is hidden in the bottom tube of the frame, giving it a sleek look. You may have to do some convincing if you want your friends or coworkers to believe that this is an electric bike based solely on its appearance. The battery itself is a 36V, 733Wh Panasonic rechargeable unit.

 I’m not sure why I brought it up, but the charger is included in the package and it’s a 110-240V mains adaptor that connects to the left side of the battery. You’ll have to connect this for around 5-6 hours to go from 0% to full charge. They usually recommend charging it to full every time you use it, the first three times, then charging it based on your usage. 

I usually advise you to leave your battery at 60-70% so that you have the most number of charging cycles and your battery will last for years. It was said that this battery has about 1000 recharges before it begins to show signs of weakness, which is typical with any rechargeable battery. However, 1000 charges roughly equates to 3 years of continuous usage, which appears like a lot of value to me.

If you want one, they even sell them on the official site of the Jetson Adventure Electric Bike Battery. The batteries are also weather-resistant, with a rubber cap that closes the charging port when not in use and prevents water and dust from entering.

Gearset

The Adventure comes with 21-Speed Shimano gears, as well as sensors that detect how much power you’re putting into pedaling the bike. Based on your efforts, the battery can provide nine different levels of electricity to the motor–but only up to a speed of 20 miles per hour.

LED

The Adventure comes with an LCD display that shows you how much battery is left, your current speed, and the distance you’ve traveled.

Prepare for the after-hours journey on the Jetson Adventure electric bike. If you’re a mountaineer, the headlights will come in handy on your route from. The front light is equipped with bright LED lights to illuminate your way ahead, while the rear brake alerts other cyclists to keep clear of a possible collision.

Suspension

Thanks to the front shock suspension, your ride on the Adventure will be pretty comfortable. Even though this eBike is a hard tail (meaning there are no shocks in the rear of the bike), a shock-absorbing seat post protects your bottom from being jarred too harshly.

Dual Disc Brakes

As for the brakes, the Adventure features both front and rear disc brakes.

Weight

For an eBike, the weight of the Jetson Adventure is not too bad. At 42 pounds, this unit is relatively light for an electric bike, which is helpful when carrying it around, as well as riding it.

Design: Hiding the “e” in eBike

Not only does hiding the battery within the frame of the Adventure help it to blend in, but it also helps to protect against theft of eBike components. thieves are less likely to take parts that they can’t see, and since the motor is also hidden on the rear hub, this bike has an extra layer of protection.

Color Options

There are six combinations of two-color frame options to choose from Green/White, Green/Black, Red/Black, Red/White, White/Blue, White/Red.

The second color in each hue combination is primary/dominant, while the first is an accent color.

Price and Availability

The price of the Jetson Adventure is also surprising — the listing price for this bike is $1,800, but you can purchase it for less at retailers such as: Amazon, Kohl’s, Walmart, etc…for as low as $1,500. Color of the bike may also influence the price. You can also purchase the Jetson Adventure eBike through an online store on the company’s website, which launched the summer.

Final Thoughts

Although the Jetson Adventure bike has many features I like, there are a few things I don’t love about it. My biggest issue is that the assisted top speed is only 20 MPH. When I first got the bike, I didn’t realize it had a pre-set maximum speed and was rather confused why it wouldn’t go any faster than 32 KPH (the screen was set to kilometers). After re-reading the specs more carefully, though,I noticed that this is just the max speed at which motor will assist rider – you can always pedal harder or find a downhill grade if you want to go faster.

Additionally, the weight of this bike is worth noting. It’s heavier than almost any other bike you’ll want to put these days, weighing in at 42 pounds. When the motor is running, it feels as light as a carbon fiber road bike because of course the battery weighs nothing. Of course, because the Jetson Adventure was designed primarily for crosstown city commuting, power outlets will most likely be available whenever you need them.
