The video is a review of a new fat bike, the FLX, produced by the Dutch brand Fat For. The reviewer starts by mentioning the popularity of fat bikes, which are becoming more than just a cycling alternative. They are seen as a kind of electric moped with a bicycle design, and are not intended for traditional cycling. The reviewer commends the design of the FLX, which includes minimal cable, everything running through the frame, and a fastest way to reach the brake cables. The FLX comes with a single frame height of 87 CM, which allows for a comfortable ride for both tall and short individuals.
The reviewer appreciates the length of the bike, which is partly due to the frame and the height of the new tires. However, they mention that the front fork is a bit crooked, which can make steering a bit nervous. The battery is standard 500 watt hour, which can drive the bike for 50 km, but there is also a larger battery of 750 hours for an additional 25 to 50 km. The battery is protected well and has a built-in plate for attaching a padlock.
The FLX is priced at €90, which is higher than previous models. However, the reviewer mentions that the bike comes with a lot of standard equipment for the price. The bike has a single gear, which the reviewer recommends for the smooth ride it offers. The bike also features a rotation sensor and a software system that has been significantly improved. The reviewer mentions that the motor responds quickly, which can be both advantageous and a disadvantage as it can sometimes respond too quickly.
The reviewer concludes by stating that the FLX is a solid choice for those who want a fat bike, mentioning that it is becoming an adult bicycle with more than 100 dealers throughout the Netherlands. The reviewer is curious about the upcoming model F from Achterhoekse Mac bracker, which will be released in August and is expected to have a force sensor.
In summary, the video is a comprehensive review of the FLX fat bike, highlighting its features, benefits, and improvements over previous models. It provides a detailed analysis of the bike's design, performance, and value for money, and concludes with an anticipation for the upcoming model F.
