BAKCOU LAUNCHES THEIR FIRST MILITARY-GRADE EBIKE; THE MAV3
Engineered specifically for military and first responders, the MAV3 is pioneering how
eBikes can be used by our service men and women.
OGDEN, UT — Today, Bakcou announced the launch of their new Bakcou MAV3 fat-tire eBike.
Featuring a staff of veterans and ex-policemen, the Bakcou team engineered an eBike that
meets the special needs of those serving their country and communities. “We wanted to design
an eBike for our military and first responders that would help them successfully accomplish their
unique missions,” explains Bakcou co-founder, Dave Andre. “Just like our service men and
women, the MAV3 is built to be durable, reliable, and have the power to tackle the toughest
terrain in the most challenging environments.”
Considering the unique situations where their eBike would be utilized, Bakcou built the MAV3 to
cover as much ground as possible. The distance capability of any eBike is centered on the
quality and size of the battery. Bakcou stepped up their game and is proud to announce the
MAV3 as their first ever dual battery eBike. Unlike most fat tire eBikes that include only a single,
14-17ah battery, the MAV3 comes standard with TWO 15ah batteries, giving it more battery
capacity than any other eBike on the market.
“When you are in remote locations with important and strategic missions to complete, the
battery is the last place to skimp on quality” states Bryan Child, Bakcou’s other co-founder. “We
not only want to help get our military and first-responders out, but also want to ensure there’s
enough ‘fuel in the tank’ for our eBikes to get them back safely.”
In addition to the battery, the most critical component of an eBike is the motor. Bakcou settles
for nothing but the best when it comes to the motors on all their eBikes and the MAV3 is no
exception. Engineered with all metal gearing and smart torque sensors, the Bafang M620 Ultra
mid-drive motor featured on the MAV3 is considered the “diesel engine” of the eBike world, This
1000W beast creates torque levels comparable to small cars and has the towing capacity of up
to 450 lbs. This level of power opens a myriad of possibilities of how the eBike can be used
including helping forest fire fighters move more quickly to remote areas and helping Search and
Rescue to more easily transport casualties out of difficult terrain.
Bakcou’s commitment to build the best military-grade eBike doesn’t stop at the battery and
motor. The MAV3 also features the high-end components from Bakcou’s other award-winning
eBikes including:
● 14-speed Rohloff speed hub
● High-grade aluminum alloy 6061 frame
● 100mm GTMRK Coil-Spring Fork
● Front and rear Tektro HD Quad Piston Hydraulic brakes
● Maxxis Minion 4.6” fat-tires
● Deep-cleated pedals
● Shock-absorbing suspension seat post
The Bakcou MAV3 is the first of its kind in Bakcou’s lineup and is engineered to elevate the
performance of those called to conquer the toughest challenges on our behalf.
