The Most Affordable 60V Ebike, 5000W: Philodo Falcon Review

If you like fast ebikes that feel closer to a small motorcycle than a chill cruiser, the Philodo Falcon should be on your radar. Dual 2,000W hub motors, a 60V system, a giant battery, and real 30 to 40 mph riding make this thing feel wild for the price.

In this breakdown, you’ll get the real ride story: braking from high speed, how hard the motors hit, what the suspension can handle, honest range expectations, and how it stacks up against other 60V options.

Brakes and Stopping Power

A fast 60V bike needs real braking, not budget parts that fade the moment you touch 30 mph. The Philodo Falcon runs 180mm discs front and rear with dual piston hydraulic DYIsland calipers, which is a solid setup for this class.

From the ride tests, the brakes felt a bit soft at first, then improved as they started to bed in. Panic stops from 30 mph and above never felt out of control, but there is room for a bit more bite.

Brake test impressions:

Good stop from about 30 mph, but benefits from bedding in the pads
Front-brake-only “white knuckle” test stayed stable and straight
From 35 to 40 mph, braking feels safe, not spectacular, but matches the price

Suspension and Off-Road Handling

The front suspension gives you 100 mm of travel with an adjustable fork. You can use the lock-out feature to stiffen things up for smoother roads, and there is preload adjustment on the other leg to tune support for your weight.

Out back, the bike uses a four-point linkage with air suspension, not a cheap coil spring. You can tighten or soften it to your liking, which is rare at this price. On dirt and rough paths, the suspension soaks up bumps well enough that the bike stays composed even when the motors are pushing hard.

Off-road, the bike holds its line, the frame feels solid, and the suspension keeps chatter out of your spine. You will see the fork and shock working the whole time, which is exactly what you want at 30 mph on broken ground.

Dual Motors, Battery, and Real-World Speed

The main reason people care about the Philodo Falcon is simple: power. It runs dual hub motors with a 60V controller and a big 32 Ah battery, so it pulls a lot harder than most 48V or 52V bikes.

Front and rear motor specs

Front motor: 2,000W nominal, peaks at 2,500W
Rear motor: 2,000W nominal, peaks at 2,500W

Together you are looking at a 5,000W peak system. The difference from a typical 48V bike is very noticeable. Once the bike hits around 20 mph, it just keeps pushing, and by the time you touch the mid 30s it feels much closer to a 125 to 250 cc motorcycle than a normal ebike.

The rear motor runs by default. Double tapping the control engages the front motor so both wheels drive. With both motors active, throttle hits are brutal in the best way. There is basically zero delay when you twist. Cruise control is technically present, but in testing it refused to activate.

The battery is a 60V pack with 1,920Wh of capacity at 32Ah, and it feeds that power-hungry system without sagging too hard under load.

Battery and charger stats:

Capacity: 1,920Wh
Amp hours: 32Ah
Charger output: 2.5A
Charge time from dead: 12-13 hours

Controls, Screen, and Pedal Assist Behavior

Starting the bike is simple but security-focused. No key, no power.

How to power on and enable both motors:

Flip the key to turn the system on
Hold the power button on the display
Double tap the mode button to activate the front motor for dual drive

The display shows voltage, speed, assist level, and a little wheel icon that tells you if one or both motors are live. You will see the 60V reading drop when you are hard on the throttle because of amp draw. In bright light the screen can be hard to see while riding.

The pedal assist uses a cadence sensor, not a torque sensor, and it kicks in almost instantly. There is immediate response once the pedals turn, which feels wild on a 60V dual-motor rig.

PAS levels tested

PAS 1: Around 11 mph, but snaps to speed very fast
PAS 2: Jumps toward near top speed with very little pedaling
PAS 3: Feels like “max speed right now” on flat ground
PAS 4: Strong pull, better to think of it as sport mode
PAS 5: Full-send mode, best for wide open straight sections

The grips have a built-in palm rest, though they are on the firm side, and the bike uses a half-twist throttle that makes it easy to modulate power with one hand.

Drivetrain, Tires, and Lights

The Falcon keeps the pedal side simple but functional. You get a 7-speed Shimano Tourney TZ derailleur with a derailleur guard to protect it when the bike goes down or gets knocked. A double-wall front sprocket helps keep the chain from popping off under rough riding.

Traction comes from Chiaang branded 24×4 tires, which are big, square-shouldered, and grippy. They feel planted both on pavement and off-road, which matters once you light up both motors.

Lighting is basic but practical:

Front headlight for night visibility
Rear running light
Rear brake light that brightens when you pull the lever (no turn signals, even though it looks like it has them)

Range, Weight, and Load Capacity

On paper, the Philodo Falcon claims 50 to 100 miles of range. The honest answer depends on how wild you ride.

Realistic range expectations:

Throttle-heavy riding, dual motor: 25-40 miles
Mixed use with some pedaling and lower PAS: around mid-range of the claim
PAS 1 with light pedaling: up to 100 miles is possible if you baby the power
Simple rule: take the high claim, cut it in half for a safe minimum

In the test ride, about 6 miles of near full-throttle use barely moved the battery gauge, which lines up with the 1,920Wh pack size.

This bike is not light. It weighs 102 lbs, which is actually less than you might expect for a dual 2,000W, full-suspension 60V machine. Max load is a solid 330 lb, so heavier riders are supported without drama.

Price, Value, and Comparisons

At around $1,600, the Philodo Falcon sits in a sweet spot. You get 60V power, dual motors, full suspension, and a huge battery for less than many slower bikes.

It is often compared to the Wired Freedom and to pricier options like the Antio A9 or Aniioki models. The Wired Freedom is another 60V monster, but it costs more and feels heavier and bulkier in real use.

Here is a quick price and voltage snapshot:

Bike	Price	Volts
Philodo Falcon	$1,600	60V
Wired Freedom	$1,999	60V

You can dig deeper into the higher-priced option in this Wired Freedom eBike long‑range review, but the bottom line is simple: the Philodo Falcon punches far above its price in raw speed and fun.

For another angle from a third party, this Philodo Falcon e-bike review and comparison stacks it against bikes nearly twice the price.

Comfort, Position, and Ride Feel

The seat on the Falcon is actually quite comfortable, even at higher speeds. The main comfort complaint is body position. You lean forward, with a lot of weight on your hands, so it can feel like you are doing push-ups when you are pedaling. That wrist lean issue is noticeable on longer rides.

If you ride mostly on throttle, you can relax your arms more and the position becomes less of a problem. The frame feels stiff and planted, and the bike carries speed with confidence.

Power delivery is no joke. Philodo claims around 105 Newton meters of torque per motor, and it feels like it. With both motors on, hitting the throttle mid-turn is a fast way to feel the front wheel fight for grip.

Caution: High power in turns! Ease into the throttle when you are leaned over, especially on loose surfaces.

Final Recommendation

For riders who want a true high-speed 60V experience without spending several thousand dollars, the philodo falcon is hard to beat. It accelerates like a small motorcycle, has a big enough battery to keep that power flowing, and includes decent suspension and brakes to back it up.

The riding position and long charge time are real trade-offs, but the overall package is still one of the strongest values in this category. It easily lands in the top two or three bikes tested on this channel.

If you are shopping fast ebikes, start with the Falcon, then compare it against other models using Hazers’ 30Mph Bikes or watch other faster bikes on youtube.
