The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the AMYET S8. In summary, this is what cyclists think. Updated Mar 09, 2026 by Amar Punekar.

9 reasons to buy

  • Experts relish the throttle’s responsiveness and quick acceleration in single-motor mode.
  • In testing, the S8 climbs steep inclines easily using the throttle in dual-motor mode.
  • Riders can switch between using the rear motor or both motors at the push of a button.
  • A 210lb reviewer gets 21.3 miles of range using throttle-only in dual-motor mode over mixed terrain.
  • The S8 comes with a storage bag, fenders, a USB charging port, a headlight, and a taillight with brake activation and turn signals.
  • Testers find the long moto-style seat comfortable.
  • The hydraulic disc brakes work well in testing.
  • Multiple reviewers say the bike is easy to maneuver for a moped-style e-bike.
  • Buyers find assembly easy.

13 reasons not to buy

  • Experts recommend starting in single-motor mode from a standstill as the front wheel easily spins out in dual-motor mode.
  • AMYET lists a height range of 5’5” to 6’5” for the S8, but testers as tall as 5’10” find the bike too tall.
  • Reviewers and buyers receive bikes with defective motors and batteries, damaged headlights, faulty brakes, cracked displays, bent chain guards, and defective tires.
  • Owners report poor customer support.
  • Owners and testers report rattling batteries, wiggly headsets, loosening bolts, flat tires, and motor failures within a few miles of riding.
  • The non-adjustable suspension fork bottoms out easily, and the rear suspension is too bouncy, according to reviewers.
  • Testers find the ride uncomfortable over bumpy pavement and light off-road terrain.
  • Experts think it isn’t suited to carry a passenger, and the footpegs cause heel strikes, even when folded.
  • Experts report up to a five-second delay for pedal assist to kick in and a one-second delay to disengage.
  • Typical of these moped-style e-bikes, pedaling is impractical.
  • One test bike shuts off after 15 miles of riding due to overheating.
  • The dual motors and high top speed exceed e-bike legal limits in most jurisdictions.
  • The pedal assist only engages the rear motor.

Bottom line

With the S8, AMYET offers a dual-motor moped-style e-bike at an appealing price point. Reviewers enjoy the quick throttle acceleration, climbing power, and decent range. Unfortunately, the positives don’t extend beyond this performance. Drawbacks include basic suspension, an uncomfortable ride over bumpy terrain, laggy pedal assist, and exaggerated sizing. The biggest letdown, however, is AMYET’s poor quality control. Buyers and testers report receiving bikes with defective or damaged components or parts failing within days of riding. Dual motor e-bikes are rare at this price, so testers think the S8 offers decent value, but its glaring quality issues can’t be ignored.

35MPH Dual Motor Budget Beast – AMYET S8

The suspension is definitely not very premium. It’s very bumpy suspension. Other than that, it’s not a bad bike. You could definitely do a lot worse for [this price].
