Features and SpecificationsANCHEER Power Plus Electric Mountain Bike

Unlike the Miageek Folding Aluminum Electric Bike, the ANCHEER Power Plus is quite heavy. It weighs around 50.7 pounds (23 kilograms). It’s usually delivered 85-percent assembled. It also comes with ANCHEER’s one-year warranty coverage, which includes the battery, motor, and other parts except for the frame.

Here are its other features that you need to know:

3 Assist Modes

With three levels of assistance, the the ANCHEER Power Plus lets you enjoy a fun and easy ride every time . If you want to reach your destination without breaking a sweat, the Pure Electric Mode or full throttle mode will give you the full power you want. But, if you want a light cardio workout but with a little assistance, use the Pedal Assist Mode. Want the feel of a traditional bike? Use the Regular Bike mode.

The Pedal Assist Mode provides more or less assistance, depending on your needs. You can adjust it from “low” (the default mode) to “medium” to “high” on the LCD display panel that’s near the left handgrip on the handlebar.

250-Watt Brushless Motor and 36V, 8Ah Lithium Battery

With a 250-watt motor, the ANCHEER Power Plus has enough power for most types of riding, including traveling up steep hills. Together with its 36-volt, 8Ah lithium battery, you can expect to travel 15 to 30 miles (approximately 24 to 48 kilometers) at a 15mph maximum speed per charge.

The lithium battery can be charged on or off the bike for 6 hours (full charge). It weighs 3.2 kilograms and can fit a normal backpack along with its smart lithium battery charger.

Note: The ANCHEER Power Plus electric bicycle doesn’t come with a spare lithium battery.

Aluminum Alloy Construction

The ANCHEER Power Plus has a quality aluminum alloy frame with a strong double-walled rims and front suspension fork. It can carry up to 330 pounds (23 kilograms) of rider and cargo weight. It’s suitable for people who are less than 6 feet and 2 inches in height.

Gear and Brake System

Equipped with a Shimano 21-speed gear, the ANCHEER Power Plus can comfortably ride across different types of roads at different speeds. The front and rear wheels are fitted with mechanical disc brakes, so it’s easier for you to stop whatever the weather with less hand effort.

Other details:

  • Wanda King Two Knives DX-3000 tires (26 x 2.5 inches)
  • Aluminum alloy pedals
  • 7 inches (length) handlebars
  • 3-speed smart meter button
  • LED front headlight and horn
  • Aluminum alloy seat tube with a seat height of 32.6 to 38 inches

The Good

Powerful and Easy to Use

The 250-watt motor and 36-volt battery provide just enough power to ride through different types of terrains. If you keep the motor running while pedaling (Pedal Assist Mode), going up hills is an easy task.

When it comes to the distance it can cover at a single charge, it really depends. For instance, if you live 13 miles from work and ride on a smooth, flat pavement, the bike has enough power to get you home. The battery level does decrease when the motor is under increased stress—like when you’re riding up a hilly terrain—but it quickly levels itself when you go back riding on a flat road surface.

Strong Frame and Wheels

The frame and wheels of the ANCHEER Power Plus could probably withstand a few crashes without serious damages. Don’t get too carried away, though. Its aluminum frame and wheels might be tough, but its other components are not.

Easy to Assemble

As we’ve previously stated, the bike is already 85-percent assembled in the box, so there’s not much you need to do. All you need to attach are the seat post, saddle, kickstand, pedals, handlebar stem, handlebars, headlight, tires, and lithium battery. If you’re really clueless on how to assemble it, you can always watch the assembly video.

The Bad

A Few Components are Not Good

This is built to a price, so don’t expect to get components that you’ll normally find in a high-end mountain electric bike. The seat is a little uncomfortable. You might want to replace it with something that has more shock absorption.

The headlight and horn don’t seem to work. You don’t need them in order for the electric bike to work. But, if you do a lot of night riding, they’re a must.

A Rough Fit for Tall and Short People

The ANCHEER Power Plus is not for people who are less than 5’5” or more than 6’2” in height. One of the best ways to find out if it fits you is to visit your nearest dealer and get the overall feel of the bike.

Brake Issues

The rear disc brake might rub on the brake pads. But, a trip to your mechanic to get the bike fine tuned might solve this issue and get your brakes to work smoother.

Who Is It For?

The ANCHEER Power Plus electric bike is for anyone who’s looking for a good quality and affordable entry-level electric bike for mountain biking. This is for the young and old daily commuter and the off-road adventurer who look forward to a comfortable riding experience.

If you prefer an electric bike or scooter that has a folding design, the ANCHEER Folding Electric Mountain Bike Shockproof Wheels or the TopMate ES31 Electric Scooter Mini Foldable Tricycle might fit you.

Conclusion

ANCHEER Power Plus Electric Mountain Bike

For the price, the ANCHEER Power Plus electric bike is one of the most affordable entry-level electric bikes on the market. It’s not surprising that it received a lot of positive reviews, mostly because of its motor and lithium battery, which give enough power for a 30-mile ride on flat roads.
