JANSNO X70 Electric Bicycle, 750W Motor, 90Nm, 48V 14Ah+20Ah Battery

Dual Batteries. 90km Range. Your Block, Your Rules.

The JANSNO X70 is built for New Zealanders who need a machine that goes the distance without a petrol station in sight. Whether you are checking fences on a lifestyle block, hauling gear to a backcountry hut, or exploring private trails, the X70’s dual 48V battery system (14Ah + 20Ah) delivers up to 90km of pure electric range. Charge both packs overnight and ride all weekend.

The 750W motor climbs 25° grades with up to 150kg on board. The 20" * 4" fat tyres handle gravel, mud, and sand. Three modes—pure electric, pedal assist, normal cycling—let you match the bike to the job.

Regulatory Note for NZ Riders: New Zealand regulations for e-bikes differ from Australia and Europe. The legal power limit for a power-assisted pedal cycle is 300W, but there is currently no mandated speed cut-off. The X70’s 750W motor exceeds the NZ legal power limit for use as a bicycle on public roads and cycle paths. It is best suited for private property, farm tracks, and off-road use. If you intend to ride on public land, check current NZTA guidance and local bylaws first.

FEATURES

90km Pure Electric Range: Dual 48V batteries (14Ah + 20Ah), both removable. Charge at home, at the woolshed, or via a portable inverter.

750W Motor with 90Nm: Climbs 25° with 150kg payload. Three riding modes: throttle, pedal assist, and unassisted cycling.

20" * 4.0 Fat Tyres: Puncture-resistant layer. Designed for NZ farm tracks, gravel roads, and beach sand.

Dual Mechanical Disc Brakes: Front and rear. Inspect regularly; mechanical systems require more maintenance than hydraulic.

90% Assembled: Includes phone holder, pump, lock, charger, headlight, and toolkit.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

New Zealand’s wet winters and coastal salt air will test any steel-framed bike. The X70 needs regular attention to stay reliable.

Frame and Corrosion Protection: High-carbon steel rusts. After every wet ride or coastal excursion, wipe the frame dry and apply a protective wax or spray to the tubes, especially around welds and the bottom bracket. If you notice paint chips, touch them up immediately. Riders in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch coastal suburbs should be particularly diligent.

Dual Battery Management: The X70’s two batteries should be charged and stored with care. In winter, bring both packs indoors to charge and store. Cold reduces lithium capacity and charging below 0°C can damage cells. If storing the bike for more than a month, discharge both batteries to 50–60% and check every 8 weeks.

Brake Adjustments: Mechanical disc brakes stretch cables over time and can feel mushy. Learn to adjust cable tension at the caliper, or have your local shop do a quick tune. Wet, gritty conditions accelerate pad wear—check pads every two weeks during winter. If you hear grinding, replace pads before the rotor is damaged.

Drivetrain in Wet Conditions: NZ’s weather means your chain will get wet often. Dry and re-lubricate after every wet ride. The X70’s motor torque is modest compared to dual-motor models, but off-road grit still wears chains fast. Use a chain checker monthly.

Tyres for NZ Terrain: For farm tracks and gravel, run 16–20 PSI. For sand or soft mud, drop to 12 PSI for float. Check pressure weekly—fat tyres lose pressure slowly but consistently.

FAQ

Q: Is the X70 legal to ride on New Zealand roads and cycle paths?

A: It depends on how you use it. NZ law defines a power-assisted pedal cycle as having a motor not exceeding 300W continuous. The X70’s 750W motor exceeds this threshold. While NZ does not currently mandate a speed cut-off, a bike exceeding the power limit may not be legally classified as a bicycle for public road use. Use on private property and off-road trails is straightforward. For public roads, verify with NZTA and your local council. The regulatory environment is under review, with the AA and others calling for clearer rules on high-powered e-bikes.

Q: What is the actual range on NZ terrain?

A: The 90km pure-electric figure assumes flat ground and moderate speed. On rolling farm tracks or hilly backcountry, expect 55–70km depending on rider weight and throttle use. Pedal assist extends this significantly. Carry both batteries for maximum range.

Q: Can I carry cargo on the rear rack?

A: Yes. The rear rack is expandable and designed to accept aftermarket luggage systems, panniers, and top boxes. The rack itself has a load limit (check the manual), but the bike’s 150kg total capacity leaves ample margin for rider plus gear.

Q: How does the X70 handle hills compared to other e-bikes?

A: Reviews of the X70 note that its acceleration is modest and it is not a fast climber compared to dual-motor models. It will handle 25° grades, but if your property has sustained steep climbs and you carry heavy loads, consider the JANSNO X60 dual-motor. The X70’s strength is range and cargo capacity, not raw climbing power.

Q: What maintenance does the dual-battery system need?

A: Keep terminals clean and dry. Charge both packs fully before a long ride, but for daily use, partial charging (80–90%) extends battery life. Store both indoors during winter. If one battery fails, the bike can run on the other—but performance and range will be reduced.
