Bottom line

Rambo’s Venom is a powerful electric fatbike with a wide gear range. It's well-suited to off-road adventures and, with its camouflage colorway, for hunting. The Venom boasts a 1000W mid-drive Bafang motor that can output 1500 watts at peak power. The Venom is equipped with powerful Tektro 4-piston hydraulic brakes, front (203mm disc) and rear (180mm). The most surprising of the Venom’s components is the renowned Rohloff 14-speed internal hub. This high-end hub has a 526% gear range while keeping the bike's gears protected from the elements. The Rambo Venom rolls on gigantic 26” x 4.8” tires, making it a backwoods beast. At this price, it’s somewhat unexpected that the Venom’s suspension fork comes from the lower-end GTMRK brand. The bike is available in one 19.7” frame size and weighs 71 pounds. Rambo’s Venom is a mostly high-end fatbike with a high-end asking price.
