Bike Review - NSMB - Riding the DJI Avinox on a Teewing MTB
Check out the review of Teewing bikes that just dropped at NSMB, one of the most respected bike reviewers in the mountain bike space. Read the full review here:
Key points from the review include:
DJI’s Avinox Motor System
DJI, known for drones and cameras, has entered the eMTB market with the Avinox motor system, offering:
- Peak power of 850W (up to 1000W in Boost mode)
- Torque of 105Nm (120Nm in Boost)
- Quiet, smooth, and natural ride feel
- A touchscreen OLED display with customizable assist modes, remote camera control, and built-in security features like GPS tracking and passcode protection
Teewing’s Entry into eMTBs
Teewing, a brand previously known for high-powered electric scooters, has launched a line of full-power eMTBs using DJI’s Avinox system. Their bikes feature:
- Full carbon frames
- 160mm front / 150mm rear suspension
- 29” wheels
- Three models (Turbo Force XT, Turbo Force, and Turbo Force Pro) ranging from CAD $8,595 to $13,295
Ride Impressions
Cam McRae tested the Turbo Force Pro during Crankworx in Whistler, BC and found:
- Excellent geometry and handling, even on steep and technical terrain
- Smooth power delivery, with high modes offering impressive climbing capability
- Easy to adjust ride settings with bike interface
- Quietest full power eMTB I've experienced.
Tech Highlights
- Fast charging: 75% in 90 minutes with the upgraded charger
- Wireless controller: Engages Boost and Walk modes
- Advanced rear wheel sensor: Provides real-time traction data
- App integration: can customize screens and even control your action camera
Regulatory Considerations
While the bike can exceed legal limits in some regions (e.g., 45 km/h speed), the Canadian distributor, Mike Clyde, confirmed that all models sold in Canada will conform to the 500W continuous power output limit and have a top motor-assisted speed of 32 km/h to comply with local regulations.
Final Thoughts
It might be a strange name, but so far Teewing has made a good impression on his peers and his performance has exceeded this evaluator's expectations.
I look forward to seeing more of what Teewing can do!
