Did you hear? Forbes named Delfast the Fastest eBike of 2021. We're thrilled to have crafted the fastest eBike available, thanks largely to our exceptional Research & Development team, whose groundbreaking work has advanced EV technology to new heights. In this article, we'll delve into what makes our fastest bike tick – uncovering the source of its incredible speed and showing you how to make the most of it.

What Determines Speed?

Speed is influenced by several key elements: the throttle, pedal-assist modes, the bike motor, and the battery. Fully utilizing the throttle allows you to relax while your bike takes over. Pedal-assist modes engage the electric power to keep you moving effortlessly. Depending on the pedal-assist level you select, you can cruise comfortably or take a complete break from pedaling. The Delfast TOP 3.0 offers three pedal-assist modes: eco, city, and unlimited. Eco mode relies heavily on your pedaling, while unlimited mode essentially transforms your e-bike into a scooter. It’s fantastic – you can unwind and simply enjoy the scenery while staying alert to your surroundings and the road ahead. This impressive power doesn't just appear out of thin air. The TOP 3.0 features a 3kW motor capable of handling city commutes at 750W and rugged off-road paths with Unlimited mode. Combined with its 182N.m torque, this e-bike excels whether you're navigating urban streets or tackling rural trails. But the motor isn't the sole contributor to this e-bike's performance. We've equipped it with a 3200mAh Li-Ion battery that provides an outstanding range on a single charge.

How Fast Can a Delfast eBike Go?

When using pedal assistance in Unlimited driving mode, you can reach speeds of up to 50 mph! However, it’s crucial to ensure that it’s both safe and legal wherever you are. Driving responsibly and adhering to local speed limits is far more significant than proving you have the fastest bike on the road. Truth be told, Delfast Bikes are indeed the fastest. To keep you safe and comply with state regulations, we've implemented specific speed controls. Riding at 50 mph is permitted only on private roads or off-grid areas. So think carefully before venturing onto public thoroughfares.

How Far Can a Delfast eBike Travel?

If being able to zip along at 50 mph without pedaling wasn't impressive enough, the Delfast team has also engineered an extraordinary battery. A single charge powers a ride of up to 200 miles. That's equivalent to traveling from New York to Philadelphia and back or from San Diego to Los Angeles. That’s a vast distance you can cover on your eBike. Do bear in mind that road conditions and speed can affect your range on a single charge. For instance, increasing your speed will deplete the battery more quickly. To maximize your distance, our best advice is to drive comfortably within posted speed limits. Fun Fact: The average American drives 13,500 miles per year. If Delfast eBike riders covered the same distance on their bikes, they'd spend only $24 annually (based on current electricity costs). That's an incredible cost-saving!

Slowing Down

Maintaining a comfortable pace is essential, and it's perfectly okay if you don't want to constantly drive at full throttle. Choose the pedal-assist mode that best fits your needs. Consider your driving style. Perhaps you want to commute to work without breaking a sweat – eco mode is ideal for that. Or maybe you're looking to stay active – in that case, you might opt for no pedal-assist at all. Our LED display will assist you in achieving your goals, maintaining your desired speed, and monitoring your battery levels. Take control of everything and enjoy your rides – however fast or slow they may be. With Delfast eBikes, every journey is designed for your comfort. Purchase yours today in our shop!
