- Experts agree that the Dubbel offers good value at this price point.

- One tester says the Dubbel is both stable while loaded and maneuverable.

7 reasons not to buy
- One reviewer says the Dubbel is heavy (70 or 78lb), especially the dual-battery version with extra accessories mounted.
- The Dubbel is only available in one size with a limited height range of 5’0” to 6’2”.
- The battery keys aren’t universal, so owners of the dual-battery Dubbel must carry both.
- Blix only provides one charger for the two batteries, meaning a full charge cycle takes 14 hours.
- Reviewers complain that the kickstand hangs down too low and drags when turning sharply or riding on uneven terrain. It also requires a lot of force to deploy and stow.
- The display is small and only shows one data point at a time.
- An expert notes that the controller is quite exposed on the underside of the frame.
Bottom line
Blix’s Dubbel is a utility e-bike designed to be an affordable, do-it-all option. A powerful motor, high carrying capacity, varied accessory choices, and mixed-terrain fat tires give the Dubbel its versatility. The bike’s main issue is the absurdly low kickstand, which drags on sharp turns. Additionally, it’s heavy, and the dual-battery version has a couple of frustrating quirks. Nonetheless, experts appreciate the overall performance and functionality, concluding that the Dubbel offers solid value at this price.Expert Reviews
