Did you know? Forbes named Delfast as the Fastest eBike of 2021. We're thrilled to have built the fastest eBike on the market, and we owe this achievement to our amazing R&D team who continue to push the boundaries of electric vehicle technology.

In this post, we’re diving into what makes Delfast eBikes so fast — where does all that speed come from, and how can you use it effectively?

What Affects Speed?

Speed is determined by several key factors: throttle, pedal-assist modes, motor power, and battery capacity. Using the throttle gives you full control without needing to pedal, while pedal-assist adds extra power depending on your chosen mode. This means you can either ride effortlessly or stay active with just a little help from your bike.

The Delfast TOP 3.0 features three pedal-assist modes: Eco, City, and Unlimited. In Eco mode, you do most of the work, while in Unlimited mode, the bike acts almost like a scooter. It's perfect for when you want to relax and enjoy the ride without breaking a sweat.

But don’t worry — all that power comes from a powerful 3kW motor that can handle city rides at 750W and off-road adventures in Unlimited mode. Paired with an impressive 182N.m torque, the bike can tackle both urban commutes and rugged trails with ease. And let’s not forget the 3200mAh Li-Ion battery that delivers up to 200 miles on a single charge — that’s a lot of distance!

How Fast Can a Delfast eBike Go?

With pedal assistance in Unlimited mode, you can reach speeds of up to 50 mph! But before you hit the road, always check local laws and safety regulations. While speed is exciting, safety should always come first. That said, Delfast bikes are built to be the fastest out there, and we’ve designed them with smart speed limits in mind.

You can only reach top speeds on private property or off-grid areas. So, make sure you're riding responsibly and enjoying the experience — not just chasing the speed.

How Far Can a Delfast eBike Go?

If going 50 mph isn’t enough, consider this: one full charge can take you up to 200 miles. That’s like driving from New York to Philadelphia and back, or from San Diego to Los Angeles — all on a single charge.

Of course, the actual range depends on your speed and terrain. If you go faster, the battery drains quicker. To maximize your range, stick to posted speed limits and ride comfortably. You’ll get more out of each charge and enjoy a smoother ride.

Here’s a fun fact: The average American drives about 13,500 miles per year. If you were to do the same on a Delfast eBike, you’d spend just $24 per year on electricity — that’s an incredible cost-saving benefit!

Slowing Down: Finding Your Ride Style

Not everyone wants to ride at maximum speed. That’s totally fine. Choose the pedal-assist mode that fits your needs — whether you're commuting to work without breaking a sweat or getting some exercise without relying on the motor.

Our LED display helps you track your speed, battery life, and ride progress. Take control of your journey and enjoy every mile — whether you're going fast or slow. With Delfast eBikes, comfort and performance go hand in hand.
