The PHILODO Falcon is one of those rare e-bikes that doesn’t hedge its bets. It’s a full-suspension, dual-motor, 60-volt bruiser built for hunters, riders who live near sand or snow, and anyone who wants the “point it anywhere and go” feeling. After weeks of riding and tuning settings on the display, it left me with the same impression every time I stepped off: this thing is a torque monster that also manages to be surprisingly composed and comfortable.
What is it? A 26-inch fat-tire electric mountain bike available in step-over and step-through frames with 4-inch rubber, front and rear suspension, and hydraulic disc brakes. What does it do? It climbs, it hauls, and it cruises over loose surfaces that stop normal e-MTBs. With up to 210 N·m of combined torque, it will churn up steep two-track and churn through beach sand the way a road bike rolls across pavement.
PHILODO has made a name by selling legitimately powerful dual-motor e-bikes at accessible prices. Falcon is the brand’s next step: a 60-volt platform with a large battery (rated around 1,460 Wh) and dial-in versatility thanks to six riding modes. If you’ve looked at the H7/H8-style bikes before and wished for more refinement and range, this is the one you were waiting for.
Is PHILODO Falcon for you?
If your riding includes deep gravel, snowpack, dunes, forest access roads, or steep neighborhood climbs, the Falcon solves a specific problem: traction plus sustained power. Two hub motors spread the workload so the bike doesn’t bog down when grades spike or surfaces get sketchy. Pair that with a 60V pack and you can ride long distances without nursing the throttle.
It’s ideal for hunters, anglers, and campers who need to tow a trailer or panniers to a remote spot; for commuters who face stubborn hills; and for bigger riders who want confident acceleration without overheating a single rear hub. The step-through frame makes all of that accessible to more body types and gear-heavy days.
It’s not for riders who must carry their bike upstairs, mount it on a light-duty car rack, or live in jurisdictions that strictly enforce Class-1/2 rules without exception. You can detune the Falcon to comply with local limits via the display, but at heart it’s a high-output machine that weighs a little over 100 lb depending on frame style. If you want a nimble, toss-around trail bike under 60 lb, look elsewhere.
Budget-wise, Falcon lands in the mid-to-upper segment for fat-tire e-bikes, which is very competitive considering it includes dual motors, full suspension, and a 60V battery. In terms of learning curve, it’s beginner-friendly once you respect the power and spend 10 minutes with the display—after that, anyone comfortable with a city bike can ride it confidently.
What We Like About PHILODO Falcon
The headline is obvious: power on tap. In Dual-Motor mode the Falcon explodes off the line yet remains controllable thanks to predictable ramp-up and the traction of 26×4.0 tires. The 210 N·m torque rating is more than spec-sheet theater; it shows up on steep, loose climbs where single-motor bikes stall. I rode repeated 12–15% grades on decomposed granite and kept speed without fishtailing.
The 60V battery transforms range anxiety. In PAS on mixed terrain I consistently saw mileage that tracks the brand’s claim (with a 180–200 lb rider plus day kit). Even when I used throttle heavily for sandy sections, the percentage drop on the display felt slow and deliberate rather than plunging in chunks.
Comfort is another surprise. The lockable/adjustable fork and rear air shock aren’t boutique components, but together they take the edge off washboard roads and rooty singletrack. Pair that with a wide saddle and upright cockpit and you can stay out for hours. I also appreciate the hydraulic disc brakes; with a 100-plus-pound bike, hydraulic stoppers aren’t a luxury—they’re non-negotiable, and the Falcon’s have strong bite with easy one-finger control.
Finally, the six riding modes make the bike more versatile than it first appears. Dual or Single Motor, PAS, throttle, Walk, and a simple Bike mode give you the right tool for every moment. Detuning to Class-2 for public greenways, then bumping it back up for fire roads, is quick through the display.
What We Don’t Like About PHILODO Falcon
Weight is the obvious trade-off. Over 100 pounds with rack and fenders means you roll it, not lift it. Apartment dwellers and riders with hitch racks capped at 60–70 lb will have to plan logistics carefully. The step-through helps in daily use, but stairs and roof racks are still a chore.
The dual-hub layout adds complexity. There are more wires to keep tidy, more connectors to check after a rough shuttle, and more to diagnose if a motor or sensor acts up. It’s not hard maintenance, but it is more maintenance than a simple mid-drive or single-hub bike.
The suspension is tuned for comfort and travel rather than precision. On chunky rock gardens, you’ll find the limits of the fork’s mid-stroke support and rebound control. It’s perfectly matched to hunting trails and sandy jeep roads; it’s less at home on sustained, technical downhill where a true enduro fork would shine.
Finally, while the display makes it easy to dial speeds down to Class-1/2/3 ranges, new owners must take local rules seriously—especially where dual-motor setups aren’t recognized. It’s on you to ride responsibly.

What’s Included?
- PHILODO Falcon e-bike (step-over or step-through frame, pre-installed rack and full fenders)
- 60V removable lithium-ion battery + frame-mounted key lock
- 60V charger (wall cord + brick)
- Handlebar-mount display with control pad

Out of the box, assembly was straightforward: install the front wheel and handlebar, mount the pedals, check caliper alignment, and torque bolts. Cable routing is tidy considering the two motors. I would like to see a faster charger in the box; 10–12 hours on a big pack is understandable, but a 5A unit would make overnights and two-a-days easier. Otherwise, the kit feels complete for off-road travel from day one.

Opinion on Features:
The Falcon’s spec sheet reads like a wish list for backcountry e-mobility. The 60V system keeps the motors lively as the battery discharges, which is exactly what you want during a long climb back to camp. The suspension is tuned for comfort, not enduro pace, but that fits the bike’s mission. Hydraulic brakes, lights, and cargo readiness are the correct choices—there’s no “buy more parts to make it usable” tax here.
Real-World Ride Impressions
Climbing and Traction
On a half-mile climb averaging 12% with loose granite and embedded rock, I toggled between Single- and Dual-Motor modes. Single handled it at a steady pace in PAS 3–4, but Dual made it effortless, allowing me to stay seated and keep cadence even when the grade pitched above 15%. The bike’s mass actually helps traction; weight presses those 4-inch tires into the surface.
Sand and Snow
On beach sand, I ran 8–10 psi and stayed mostly in throttle with occasional pedaling to keep cadence. The Falcon tracked like a two-wheel ATV—no front washout on turns, and the rear stayed composed. In shallow snow, it’s the same story: keep momentum, trust the footprint, and let the motors do the work.
Handling and Stability
The steering is slow and calm, which is ideal for a heavy bike. It rewards looking far down the trail, not flicking the bar. Once you settle in, it’s easy to place the tires where you want and the rear suspension keeps chatter under control. On paved sections, the tires hum at higher pressures; drop 2–3 psi and the ride quiets down.
Braking
The hydraulic setup inspires confidence. From 25 mph on packed dirt, I repeatedly stopped in a straight line with two-finger lever pressure and no fade. Check rotor bolts and bed in pads after assembly; it’s worth the 20 minutes.
Comfort and Fit
The cockpit is upright with room to breathe. The step-through model was a favorite with a loaded rack and when I wore heavy winter layers. The saddle is generous, and the rear shock removes the “fat-bike bounce” that rigid frames can have. If you’re 5'2"–6'5", you’ll find a workable fit between the two frames, but riders under ~5'4" may prefer the step-through’s standover.
Battery and Range
In one mixed loop (graded fire road + beach ramp + back-road pavement), I logged 31 miles with 1,900 ft of climbing, finished with 58% indicated while using PAS 2–4 and occasional Dual-Motor bursts. On a throttle-heavy dune session, I burned through 48% in 16 miles—still strong for that surface. The meter is honest; it drops steadily rather than in sudden steps.
Unleash 60V Dual-Motor Power
Conquer sand, snow, and steep climbs with 210 N·m torque and full suspension.
Setup, Tuning, and Maintenance
Assembly is straightforward, but take time to:
- True and tension the front wheel after shipping.
- Align calipers and bed in the pads—critical for quiet, powerful braking.
- Check torque on axle nuts, rack bolts, and the rear shock hardware.
- Program the display. Set speed limits, PAS sensitivity, and motor modes to your local rules and preference.
- Cable care. With two motors, tidy zip-ties and protective wrap near the head tube prevent rub marks.
Long term, keep an eye on brake pads (heavy bikes eat them faster), hub connectors after wet rides, and rear-shock air pressure. Tires seal well tubeless if you want fewer flats and lower pressures; the rims are tape-ready.
Accessories That Pair Well
- Hunting/Utility Trailer: The rear rack is stout, but a single-wheel or two-wheel trailer makes hauling game or camping gear far easier—and it keeps heavy loads low.
- 2-Amp Faster Charger: If PHILODO offers a higher-amp charger rated for the pack, it cuts charge time substantially.
- Suspension Seatpost (if your frame lacks one): Stacks with the rear shock for all-day comfort.
- Tubeless Conversion + Insert: Run lower pressures in sand without pinch-flat anxiety.
- Mirror and Bell: For mixed-use paths when you’re detuned to Class-2, these help courtesy and safety.
Who Beats It—and Who Doesn’t?
At this price tier, many fat-tire e-bikes boast big numbers but run 48V systems and single rear hubs. Those bikes are lighter and simpler but won’t match the Falcon on sustained climbs, sand starts, or towing. On the other side, premium mid-drives with long-travel forks carve singletrack better, but they lack the Falcon’s float and raw straight-line authority—especially with a trailer attached.
If your priority is technical trail precision, look at a lighter mid-drive with a higher-end fork. If your priority is go-anywhere capability with cargo, the Falcon sits near the bull’s-eye.
Safety, Legality, and Best Practices
- Know your rules. Use the display to set legal speed limits for your trails and shared paths.
- Brake early. Weight + speed = energy. Give yourself margin on descents and wet boardwalks.
- Tire pressure matters. Sand and snow riding is exponentially better under 12 psi; pavement prefers 18–22 psi depending on rider weight.
- Load smart. If you’re carrying game or camping kits on the rack, balance weight and strap low; consider a trailer for >40 lb.
- Store the battery smartly. Keep the 60V pack around 50–60% if you’re shelving it for a month, and avoid charging immediately after a hard, hot ride.
The Bottom Line on Value
You’re paying mid-to-upper market money, but you’re getting the 60V system, dual motors, hydraulic brakes, full suspension, and cargo readiness in one package. Put simply: you’d spend more cobbling this spec list from other brands. The Falcon isn’t a featherweight or a scalpel—its value is that it’s a bulldozer you can live with day to day.
Final Breakdown
9.2 / 10
PHILODO Falcon delivers on the promise of a dual-motor, fat-tire, full-suspension e-bike without asking you to baby it or endlessly upgrade. It rockets up steep grades, floats through sand, and cruises snowy access roads with calm steering and real braking power. The 60V battery keeps things lively for hours, and the six riding modes mean you can be a polite commuter in the morning and a backcountry explorer by afternoon.
It isn’t perfect: weight and wiring complexity are part of the deal, and the suspension, while comfortable, isn’t a substitute for a dedicated enduro setup. But judged on what it sets out to do—carry riders and cargo anywhere with confidence—the Falcon is a standout. If your routes include loose surfaces, steep climbs, or towing duties, this is one of the easiest recommendations I can make.
Recommendation: Buy it if you want a go-anywhere, high-torque platform with real range and the safety of hydraulic brakes. Skip it if you need a sub-60-lb bike or plan to ride only manicured singletrack.
