Its Samsung 48 V 20 Ah battery and four-arm full suspension make it a formidable bike on all types of terrain.

Who is this bike for?

This model is particularly suited for:

• Riders seeking a powerful dual-motor electric mountain bike

• People requiring high load capacity (up to 180 kg)

Performance and range

Comparison and positioning

The LANKELEISI MG800Max ranks among the most powerful electric mountain bikes in its category, competing against models like the Shengmilo MX05 or Samebike RS-A08. Its dual motor and full suspension clearly distinguish it from single-motor fat bikes.

Important note on homologation: The product sheet mentions simultaneously a power of 250 W/1000 W per motor, a speed limit of 25 km/h and an unlocked speed of 48 km/h. This combination is ambiguous: the 250 W rating and 25 km/h limit alone are insufficient to guarantee CE road homologation. Lankeleisi does not offer an explicit choice between a certified and non-certified version at purchase. This point warrants careful consideration before any public road use.

✔ you want a dual-motor ultra-powerful electric mountain bike for off-road riding

✔ you need a maximum load capacity of 180 kg
✔ you're between 170 and 190 cm tall
✔ you ride mainly on tracks, trails or rough terrain

This bike is NOT for you if?

❌ you want a lightweight bike that's easy to transport
❌ you wish to ride exclusively in town on public roads (uncertain homologation)
❌ your budget is under £2,000
❌ you're under 170 cm tall
❌ you need a compact bike for a small flat
