Bottom line
The Addmotor M-150 is a folding electric fat tire bike that comes in two sub-models. The R7 uses low-maintenance, solid, spokeless, alloy wheels with the hub-motor integrated into the rear wheel. The P7 uses conventional spoked wheels. These bikes use a 750W motor that outputs a claimed 1000W of peak power and 80Nm of torque. Fat 4” tires are fitted to small-radius 20” wheels to absorb bumps and ride on a variety of surfaces. At 68lb the M-150 is heavy. Most of this weight is situated toward the rear of the bike. Two owners have reported that their frame snapped in half at the hinge. This caused an injury to one rider. Hopefully, this issue has been amended.Expert Reviews
