Coast Cycles Buzzraw PRO Electric Bike

The Coast Cycles Buzzraw PRO is an all-terrain utility electric fatbike engineered by Singapore-based design firm Coast Cycles. Fusing retro-inspired aesthetics with a versatile chassis and modern electric propulsion, this model delivers agile handling, structural durability, and distinctive styling for urban exploration, commuting, and off-road trail riding.

Unlike conventional electric fatbikes relying on rear hub propulsion, the Buzzraw PRO is powered by an electric Mid-Drive motor producing 250W nominal continuous output (generating 80 to 110 N·m of peak torque). Positioned in the bottom bracket, the mid-drive motor distributes weight between the wheels and works directly through the mechanical drivetrain, providing hill-climbing leverage and pedal assistance up to 25 km/h (100% street legal across Europe and the UK without a driving license or registration).

Electrical reserves are supplied by a 48V lithium-ion battery system (ranging from 12.8Ah / 615Wh up to 17.5Ah), delivering a manufacturer-declared operating range of 40–50 km under demanding use and up to 80 km under eco cruising. Riding comfort is supported by a front coil suspension fork with rebound dampening adjustment, front and rear hydraulic disc brakes, 20 x 4.0-inch all-terrain fat tires, and an elongated Duraform seat accommodating passengers and modular cargo racks.

✅ Key Features

• Torque-Rich 250W Mid-Drive Powertrain: bottom-bracket motor delivering balanced weight distribution and climbing torque from 80 to 110 N·m.

• Ergonomic Duraform Saddle: durable vinyl-wrapped bench seat with dual-position mounting to accommodate riders of different heights.

Mid-Drive Drivetrain and Street Legality

The core engineering highlight of the Buzzraw PRO is its 250W mid-drive motor. By driving the crankset directly rather than the wheel hub, the mid-motor takes full advantage of the bike's mechanical gearing, producing substantial torque (80 to 110 N·m) to climb steep slopes with less battery strain.

The electric assist operates up to a compliant speed threshold of 25 km/h, adhering to European Pedelec (EPAC) standards. The bike is legal to ride on public streets and designated cycling paths without vehicle registration, road tax, or driving licenses.

Battery Architecture and Range

Energy is stored in a 48V lithium-ion battery pack (12.8Ah / 615Wh standard, with capacity tiers up to 17.5Ah). Mounting the battery within the central frame lowers the center of gravity, improving vehicle balance and cornering stability.

Depending on rider payload, road topography, ambient temperature, and chosen assist level, the operating range spans from 40–50 km under heavy throttle/hill loads up to approximately 80 km under moderate cruising.

Suspension, Wheels, and Hydraulic Braking

Road absorption is managed by a front coil suspension fork (450 ft/lbs coil with 115 mm travel) equipped with rebound damping adjustment. Working in tandem with 20 x 4.0-inch all-terrain fat tires, the suspension absorbs surface vibrations from broken pavement, gravel, and trail roots.

Stopping control is governed by front and rear hydraulic disc brakes. The hydraulic circuit provides consistent pad clamping force and responsive lever feel, ensuring controlled stopping distances when carrying additional cargo or a passenger.

Chassis, Ergonomics, and Modular Utility

The frame features an elongated geometry supporting rider payloads of up to 160 kg with a curb weight between 28.5 kg and 36 kg (depending on battery and motor specification). The Duraform bench seat can be mounted in two positions to comfortably fit different rider heights.

The frame includes integrated mounting points for modular adventure accessories, including a front cargo rack, rear luggage rack, frame bags, and passenger foot pegs. Cockpit telemetry is managed by an LCD screen displaying speed, battery reserve, and assist modes.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How does the Buzzraw PRO differ from the Buzzraw Classic and Buzzraw X?
