QuietKat eBikes – Apex Pro
The Apex Pro is the new top-of-line model for QuietKat. It sports several upgrades from the original Apex including a more powerful 16ah integrated battery. It has an estimated 48-mile range with pedaling assistance; 24 miles without. It has a 1,000-watt motor and nine-speed gearing.
QuietKat eBikes – Apex Sport
The Apex Sport is geared toward the serious outdoors-person. With a choice of a 1,000- or 750-watt motor, the Apex Sport offers similar power and many other features as the Apex Pro with less impact on the wallet. Lighter forks and a more budget-conscious battery and drivetrain keep the Apex Sport affordable for more people. Its approximate range is 38 miles with pedaling and 19 without the user’s help. Currently, Apex models are priced from $4,999 – $5,599 depending on features.
QuietKat eBikes – Ranger
The Ranger is an ebike that’s ready to help carry the load on its built-in rack. It offers the same 38 miles assisted-pedaling and 19 miles electric power-only as the Apex Sport. The hub drive of 1,000- or 750-watt motor offers “bulletproof simplicity,” as the QuietKat press release reads. It has seven-speed gearing and two-piston hydraulic brakes. Though the Ranger shares much in common with the higher-priced Apex models, it’s priced for the rider who wants to go off-road, but doesn’t need maximum torque. It’s current pricing varies from $2,999 – $3,599.
QuietKat eBikes – Pioneer
The Pioneer is the name of QuetKat’s new entry-level bike. It’ll still take on off-road assignments with its 500- or 700-watt hub drive motor. It’ll carry a rider approximately 29 miles with pedal assistance or 14 without. With a simple gearing system and integrated battery design, the Pioneer is designed to be low-maintenance. Stiff forks and “cushy” four-inch tires make for a comfortable ride with pricing at $1,999 – $2,599.
Every hunting-purpose QuietKat ebike is offered in a nature-friendly selection of solid and camo colors. Each has fat tires for a stable, comfortable ride. If an ebike is in your hunting plans, now is the time to shop when selection is growing and prices are lower than before.
