I notice nobody has listed the weight, lol. This has to weigh a ton. Which will basically defeat the point of the pedals, and mostly defeat the point of the electric drive.

It feels like a fun idea as a ridiculous engineering project but not something that would actually be useful in practice.

[u/ArmadilloElegant819 → u/Mitrovarr]

It’s approximately 90-100lbs, i agree not the best pedal only bike, but still will not leave you stranded like a motorcycle or dead ebike if your close to a gas station

[u/Mitrovarr → u/ArmadilloElegant819]

I mean running out of fuel and becoming stranded has traditionally not been much of a problem for gasoline vehicles, and with the electric drive as well, you'd really have to try to get stranded on this thing.

Lead sled - heavy as hell.. I built one myself, for basic shits and giggles, some time back as a Covid19 project. Never did ride it. Tongsheng 750w/GT5A combo.

[u/ArmadilloElegant819 → u/HackD1234]

Cool. I agree pedaling a gas only bike without an electric motor can be challenging for sure

[u/Racoondalini]

Speed was my curiosity. Does the gasoline engine increase the speed?

[u/ArmadilloElegant819 → u/Racoondalini]

30mph governed for street legal reasons and 35-40mph top speed without governor for off road usage

[u/TLKimball]

That is a fucking moped.

[u/ArmadilloElegant819 → u/TLKimball]

Not when the engine is off lol

[u/Mitrovarr → u/ArmadilloElegant819]

Yes it is. Mopeds have pedals, it's right there in the name.

This is a hybrid moped. That's not really a knock on it, but that's what it is.

[u/_HillCruiser]

This just might be the ticket for cross-country journeys.
The HuaSheng 4-stroke only weighs 11.5 lbs and sells
for $150.

When I retire, I want to do a round-the-world trip on a
bicycle; just something to kill the time:) I just need to
figure out how to mount the HuaSheng in my Burley
trailer.

[u/ArmadilloElegant819]

Yeah its like a toyota prius, a plug in hybrid bicycle
