Frequently Asked Questions
Are the bikes chain-driven or hub motor?
Orion electric bikes are brushless hub drive only. We purposely do not use a chain drive system, as they inherently have issues. Brushless hub drives are virtually maintenance-free and will provide performance and reliability. Our e12X is a 250-watt brushless hub motor.
What age is a 24V electric bike suitable for?
A 24V electric bike is ideal for younger beginners, typically aged 3–6 years. It provides low-speed power and smooth control, making it perfect for first-time riders.
Is it safe for first-time riders?
Yes, it is designed with safety in mind, offering controlled speed modes and stable handling to help new riders learn with confidence.
What do Shimano hydraulic brakes improve?
Shimano hydraulic brakes improve braking precision, control, and safety, allowing riders to stop smoothly and confidently in different riding conditions. They are known industry-wide as a premium braking system and are used by top manufacturers. The Orion e12X is equipped with Shimano rear hydraulic brakes.
