Valkyrie 750 Watt E-Bike

ZEV Valkyrie 750 Watt E-Bike



750 WATTS: The maximum legal power under the federal law for a bicycle. Why would you ever have anything less? What else would you expect from the maker of the world's fastest and longest range electric motor scooters?
The ZEV Valkyrie
  •  34 Mph / 56 Kmh on full power PAS while pedaling.
  • 20 Mph, motor only (Legal limit)
  • 12 Ah battery, 48 volts 
  • 720 wh peak capacity
  • 40 Nm of motor torque.
  • $3,990 (half the cost of a Stromer)
This bike is made in two variants.
1) 34 mph on full power pedal assist, twist grip throttle (20 mph motor only)
2) 25 mph with pedal assist, no throttle (20 mph motor only)

The highest speed bike is $3,990 - 45 day lead time
The 25 mph bike is $3,890 - In stock and ready to ship
Both bikes have the same hill climbing ability. The difference is only speed and the addition of a throttle for technical riding in the rough. The reason for the difference is the laws in some states or country restrict the bike to no throttle and lower speeds to fit under the bicycle laws. For those country that require the power while on the road to be limited, ZEV will set the power as you ask. 

We will ship either mode of the bike anywhere in the Continental USA for $205 freight cost.
The Chassis: True to the aircraft manufacturing heritage of ZEV, and in keeping with that heritage, the ZEV Aero line is a light weight tour de force with the Valkyri-E the powerhouse built with every bit of company aircraft skill into a hydroformed aluminum chassis. The Purpose built chassis it the heart of this bike. Purpose built frames are very rare, and only very few manufacturers have attempted to market a bike with the battery built into the frame. 
Because of this frame, the ZEV feels perfectly balanced, has the wires and cables concealed (and protected), and does not sport a clunky heavy battery rear rack like most electric bikes that ruins the balance of the bike, especially on a steep grade where they make the bike want to over center lift the front. Exceptional balance is a key feature. Without the weight hanging off the back as on paste together ebikes, and with the battery weight in the chassis angled forward with the weight toward the front of the down tube, the bike balances perfectly in the middle.

The ZEV is beautifully balanced in its design. There is nothing that detracts the eye or screams out electric bike. It is silent in its operation. You can have the bike with or without the large ZEV Electric logo on the bike side if you wish to truly remain not recognized as an Ebike rider.
The Battery: is the second key. At 48 volts nominal, 60 volt peak, and 12 ah, the battery holds 720 wh (576 nominal). This big battery is also the key to the power delivery, smooth and always there. When the riders of lesser capacity battery bikes, with far less power roll on the throttle, the volts available dive dropping the available power. The ZEV big battery lets you keep rolling on the power in the technical sections or on the street at speed. That big battery on gravel rail trail bike paths has provided over 15 miles on the motor only, and 61 on light assist.
The Motor: while rated at 750 watts continuous, allows riders to storm up hills with up to 1200 watts peak power. The motor, as in all ZEV vehicles is oil bath lubricated and oil cooled, the only such motor in the entire EBike industry. This is to protect your valuable motor, and to make it run cooler and more efficient so it can output more power, longer. The oil in the motor also helps protects you from the possibility of corrosion that can occur in any electric motor and lockup. 
As in all ZEV, the motor is a large diameter. When you double the diameter of a hub motor, you increase the torque by four. We run the largest diameter motors to stop motor lugging and give you seamless torque for 40 Nm of torque. As much as 40%. The big diameter motor is also part of the range formula. Big diameter motors with high torque do not lug as smaller motors which unnecessarily consumes the amps. The larger OD motor uses its torque to get to speed and the amps back down once a given speed is reached. This allows the ZEV to get more range out of a battery than even bikes with slightly larger battery, and use the smaller battery to reduce the bike weight.
The Bike Management System: The Valkyri-E has the state of the art computer system offering throttle and PAS and Computer override for all from a 6 km mode for EEC country, to speed control to match EEC rules, to completely variable pedal assist power levels.
With this system, you can start your exercise run with no power assist or in the lowest level. Add power level assist as you tire or as the make it home for sure mode. In the rough, the thumb throttle can be used to roll on that extra grunt you need to get through the rough stuff, or to smoothly motor through the slime where pedal power wants to break traction.
The Value 

The mantra of ZEV is always to provide the customer an outstanding performance value. Only ZEV offers the combination of:
  • Big 180 mm Hydraulic disk brakes for anti fade, steeper grades, heavier riders.
  • 48 volt, 12 ah, 720 wh (540 nominal) battery (Samsung 18650/2900mA cells)
  • 750 watts of motor power nominal. 1,200 watts peak power. 40 Nm of torque.
  • Double triple tree downhill front forks
  • 9 speed Shimano
  • A concealed battery in a balanced frame
  • Fenders standard
  • Full light package standard
  • Full control computer system standard
  • 34 mph speed in max PAS power, max speed setting. The speed champion of the EBikes. And on knobby tires too! 
  • 26 X 2.1 rims and tires with puncture resistant construction.
  • All in a one hand pickup 59 lb package
The Valkyrie has the best range of any E-bike in the market under $5,000 (beats many of the more expensive ones too). 61 miles on light assist power on hard roads. Driving on hard dirt trails the range a range of 51 miles was reached. This was achieved on a variety of hills and not just flat road driving. Driving on flat roads allows for more range. We have not seen anyone achieve less than 45 miles even in the high assist mode. (Other companies may claim equal or more, but without the big battery of the ZEV, they are just claims, not fact)
        
Dare to Compare 

The Valkyrie is:  
  • A dual purpose bike. You can drive it on the road and take it into the dirt with its fat knobbie tires. But Stromer and Specialized are road only bikes. Why restrict yourself? Switch the tires and you have a scorcher of a road bike.
  • Lighter than a Stromer Platinum, with a larger battery, 50% more power, 30% faster, and a lot less money. Save money, run further, quicker, and faster.
  • Radically less money than a Specialized Turbo, faster, and with more control, including a throttle, 300% of the Turbo power, and the ZEV is dirt capable also. Save thousands, go faster, and quicker, run further.
  • Radically far better balance and quality than the Prodeco Outlaw, with 25% larger battery and avoid the bolt together, non integrated chassis.
  • The same price as the Stomer Elite, but the ZEV offers full front suspension, 50% more power, and a larger battery. Go faster, further, and quicker with a much better ride and handling.
  • A second battery for the Valkyri-E is $450, far less than for Stromer.
The ZEV Valkyrie, why settle for anything less?
