Frequently Asked Questions
What age is a 36V electric bike for?
A 36v electric bike is best suited for mid-age kids, usually between 6–10 years old. It offers a balanced level of power that supports skill development without being overwhelming.
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 e16X is a 500-watt brushless hub motor.
Is it suitable for kids learning to ride?
Yes, it is designed to support balance, safety, and controlled riding, making it ideal for kids who are learning and improving their riding skills.
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 e16X is equipped with Shimano hydraulic brakes at the front and rear.
