A very powerful electric bike with a very sensitive system

Cycling Weekly Verdict

The Juicy Roller is a really powerful and very sensitive electric bike. The rear hub motor is one of the most powerful I have tried and the system very precise. However, the battery indication on the bar screen is not really precise and tends to change significantly when you ride with a high level of assistance or up hill. This can happen to any e-bike, but it happened way too much on the Juicy compared to other similar models.

When I rode the Juicy Roller electric bike for the first time, I couldn't believe how powerful it was. At traffic lights, but generally each time you give the first pedal stroke to start, this bicycle just flies, making it one of the best electric bikes.

Moreover, all the times I had my feet on the pedals ready to start, I was also forced to hold both brakes with my hands tightly, otherwise the bike would have just moved forward. The system is really so sensitive and powerful, that even the lightest touch on the pedal gives you a high amount of energy to propel the bicycle forward.
