$1,799.00
Product Details
Everything you love about the original Big Sur is back! Now sporting 20" x 4" fat tires, Big Sur Sport is smaller and lighter, but it's just as fun and performant as Big Sur 26", if not more so! This bike retains the original's class 2/3 rating (20mph and 28mph top speed using the throttle and PAS respectively), as well as its safety features, including big 203mm brake rotors, LG 21700 battery cells, and a full UL2849 certification. Equipped standard with the AIMA Comfort XL seat and an MIK rear rack, Big Sur Sport delivers the same level of power, comfort, and smoothness of its bigger brother.

*Ebike Range: Explained

An ebike's battery life is influenced by several factors that can affect its maximum range. While our ebikes can achieve up to 60 miles of range under ideal riding conditions, range can vary from 20 - 60 miles based on many contributing factors.

Here's a list of the most common factors that affect range, as well as what you can do to maximize your riding time.

  • Pedal Assist: Higher levels of pedal assist will allow for an easier ride, but will also draw more power from the battery. Lower pedal assist levels are better for getting as many miles as possible out of your battery.

  • Average Cruising Speed: Riding slower will decrease the amount of energy you lose to wind resistance as the bike pushes you forward. Slower speeds will extend battery life.

  • Tire Pressure: Keeping your tires inflated to the recommended pressure can help increase your range. Maintaining a proper tire pressure not only increases your range, but also helps prevent pinch flats! For most riding situations, checking your tire pressure at least once a week will keep your ride safe and energy-efficient.

  • Load Weight: Carrying a heavier load can decrease your range. This includes the total load of both the weight of the rider and any cargo you may be carrying. More weight takes more time and energy to get up to speed, negatively affecting your range. It's best to keep loads light whenever possible if you're looking to extend your range.

  • Terrain & Elevation: In general, riding over smooth and flat terrain will give you a longer range. Hills and rough terrain can greatly impact your maximum range, especially on higher assist levels.

  • Wind: That's right! The wind can affect your battery range too! Riding into a headwind will decrease your range, but if you're able to catch a tailwind, you'll actually see that you'll gain more range! Be mindful of which way the wind is blowing when you are riding. If you've been riding in a tailwind, turning around will take more energy from the battery to get you home. 

  • Ambient Temperature: Riding in cold weather will impact the battery's ability to function optimally. A good rule of thumb is, if you're comfortable, then the battery is comfortable too. This also goes for storing the battery too!

Features

Hub Motor and Battery

There's few places you can't go with Big Sur Sport, thanks to its powerful 750W (nominal) rear hub motor by Bafang paired with a 48V 15Ah high-capacity battery.

Torque Sensor

Rather than relying on an outdated cadence sensor to detect your movement, our torque sensor is able to instantly feel how hard you're pedaling at any given time and instruct the motor to match your performance, improving safety and efficiency.

Full Color Backlit LCD Display

Everything you need is right in front of you at all times, including your current speed, battery remaining, distance traveled, and much more.

20” x 4” Fat Tires

20” x 4’’ tires enable you to traverse any terrain with ease while retaining the nimble feeling of a 20" tire. It's the best of both worlds!

Suspension Fork

Offering 80mm of travel and adjustable preload & lockout functionality, our suspension fork provides a smooth and comfortable ride feel throughout a wide variety of riding conditions.

Fender & Rear Rack

Fenders come pre-installed to ensure you'll be able to tackle all sorts of weather conditions. Plus, an included MIK HD rear rack means there's no limit to what you can take with you.

Flat Position Welding

We've applied one of the most advanced aluminum welding processes to our frame, an exclusive "flat position welding" technique. This allows the frame to maintain its strength and rigidity while also appearing smooth and flat.

Walk Assist

Gone are the days of pushing your bike around by hand. Our walk assist function allows the bike to maintain ~2-3mph (walking speed) as you push it alongside you, up a hill, or anywhere else.

Controller Compartment

Mid-drive? Not quite! Our mid-mounted controller cavity allows for streamlined assembly and repair, while also bolstering the controller's heat dissipation capabilities, improving the bike's performance and safety.

Great bike for a small gal

Just got the Sport for my 5’3” wife during the Black Friday sale. She loves the bike but felt like the throttle was a little too intense and jumpy. The dealer did a firmware update that reduced the throttle intensity by 30%…much better. She also felt like she was reaching for the handlebars even though I rolled them back and moved her seat forward. So, I reversed the stem and remounted the handlebars which moved the handlebars back a few inches….perfect…happy wife. Great bike, much smoother torque converter than my Mokwheel…I’m jealous!

Big Sur Sport makes your day.

After conducting numerous grueling test rides, I arrived at the conclusion that the AIMA brand truly stands out as an exceptional choice for a big Sur sport e-bike. Having ridden it for a month now, I can confidently say that I adore every moment spent on it. In eco mode, I consistently achieve an impressive range of at least 60 miles on a full charge, making it perfect for my long rides. Along the way, I've received countless compliments from passersby, which only adds to the thrill of the experience.

LOVE IT!

Bought about a month ago. Very well made and rides so smooth. My first e-bike and glad I bit the bullet. So much fun and easy to ride.

Too Much Fun

Best purchase I’ve made in years. Guaranteed to make you smile like a kid, even when riding up a steep hill. 800 miles since February, no issues. Only thing I added was the tire inserts for flat protection. Nice to be able to throttle at start off - then peddle to save your knees. Great exercise without feeling sore the next day.
My wife, daughter and granddaughter each tried my bike - and each of them
now have one. My son-n-law had a more expensive, heavier e-bike - after borrowing my daughter’s Big Sur - he bought a one that he rides 90% of the time now. We just ordered two more, so we have extras for other family members to ride when they visit. Just Too Much Fun 👍

2 Gals 22 & 57 Tell All

We went around and tried every single e-bike we could find within about 30 mi radius. Although we did find some really nice bikes, this particular bike was the one we went with. Besides the fact that the entire bike had been certified, not just the battery was one of the reasons why. The other reason is because the sprocket is larger and it feels like a 26-in bike. We do not like the foldables and this bike gives you more options for comfort. The front forks will take any abuse and the bike is light enough to manage in the smallest spaces. I was always afraid of a fat tire bike, but this one responds as if it is a thin tire mountain bike. I live an active lifestyle and always have and to be honest my second ride we went 40 MI.
That was about a good half day trip so I'm going to get an extra battery so that I can enjoy it much longer. E-Bikes level the playing field for everybody to enjoy including Grandma and Grandpa. We are still adding a couple of things to our bikes, but this is where they're at after a couple of weeks. It's so much fun to customize your own bike as well.

I highly suggest this bike so enjoy!.
