Enjoy your ride, every day counts!
If you’ve been looking for a true all-terrain e-bike that doesn’t flinch at steep climbs, deep sand, or long weekend miles, the Bluvall Zeegr F1 belongs on your shortlist. It’s a dual-motor, fat-tire bruiser built around a 48V system and a large 22.4Ah (≈1,075Wh) battery. With hydraulic brakes, a lockable suspension fork, and a rack/fenders kit straight out of the box, this is a turnkey adventure rig that also doubles as an everyday commuter.
On paper the formula is simple: front + rear 1,000W hub motors (3,000W peak) for thrust, 26×4.0-inch tires for float and stability, and a color LCD with five assistance levels that stretch from gentle cruise to grin-inducing speed. Bluvall rates the top speed at 35 mph (conditions, rider weight and local regulations always apply) and estimates 50–75 miles with pedal assist on that big battery, or roughly 24–31 miles if you ride throttle-only.
Styling is utilitarian in the best way—full-coverage fenders, a solid rear rack, high-lumen headlight, and a sturdy 6061-aluminum frame. The overall package weighs about 73 lb (33 kg) and is designed to carry up to 330 lb (150 kg), with a recommended rider height of 5’6″–6’11″ (168–210 cm). Throughout this review I’ll break down how those numbers translate to real-world riding, where the F1 shines, and where it asks for compromise—following the structure of our in-house review framework.
Is Bluvall Zeegr F1 for you?
What need does it solve?
Torque and traction. If you live around long grades, loose terrain (snow, beach, gravel), or you simply want the security of all-wheel-drive thrust when merging into traffic or crossing intersections, dual motors make everyday riding easier and a lot more fun.
Who is it for?
- Riders who prioritize power and stability over ultralight weight.
- Commuters who also want a weekend trail/overlanding machine.
- Heavier riders or those hauling cargo who benefit from 330 lb max load.
- Anyone in hilly regions who’s tired of spinning out on 15–20% pitches.
Who is it not for?
- Apartment dwellers without ground-floor storage or an elevator (73 lb is hefty).
- Riders in jurisdictions with strict Class 2/3 limits who don’t want to lock the bike to lower speeds.
- Minimalists seeking a nimble, sub-50-lb city bike.
Budget/positioning
The Zeegr F1 slots into the value-performance tier: far more capability than a budget single-motor cruiser, without the premium price of boutique AWD builds.
Beginner-friendly?
Yes—with caveats. The color display and PAS levels are easy to learn, and hydraulic brakes are confidence-inspiring. But this much power plus fat-tire mass rewards riders who take a few parking-lot sessions to get comfortable before unleashing dual-motor mode in traffic.
What We Like About the Zeegr F1
Effortless climbing and traction. With 1,000W motors at both wheels, the F1 surges forward even when you point it at a nasty hill or a rutted fire road. Having drive on the front and rear helps the bike stay hooked up on loose surfaces where single-hub bikes often spin out. On pavement, that same traction translates into sure-footed launches from stoplights.
Battery that keeps up with the motors. A 48V 22.4Ah pack (≈1,075Wh) is generous for this price class and the included 3A charger replenishes from empty in a practical overnight window. Ride sensibly on PAS 2–3 and the bike easily covers a long day’s touring; switch to dual-motor throttle and you still have enough depth for real fun without range anxiety.
Hydraulic brakes done right. Big mass plus big speed demands real stoppers. The hydraulic disc system delivers predictable, one-finger power and short stopping distances with minimal maintenance fuss—exactly what you want as speeds creep north of 28 mph.
Ride comfort & control. The lockable suspension fork takes the sting out of washboard and potholes, and the 26×4.0 tires float over sand and snow while adding a cushion of air volume. It’s not a full-suspension bike, but the front-end compliance and fat-tire damping make long rides surprisingly relaxed.
Complete commuter kit. Fenders, rack, lights, a phone holder, and a center-mounted color LCD arrive pre-bundled. You can commute tomorrow, then disappear onto a gravel connector on the weekend without buying add-ons.
Flexible drive modes. Choose single-motor for efficiency, dual-motor for giddy acceleration, or cruise mode for laid-back runs. Five PAS levels are mapped to ~12/18/24/29/35 mph targets so you can fine-tune effort and speed to conditions.
What We Don’t Like About the Zeegr F1
Weight is real. At 73 lb, lifting the F1 onto a car rack or up porch steps takes planning. The battery is removable to drop a few pounds, but this is a big, sturdy bike and it feels like one when maneuvering at walking pace.
No rear suspension. The fork and fat tires do a lot of work, but the tail is unsprung. On rocky doubletrack you’ll occasionally wish for a rear shock or a suspension seatpost (an easy upgrade we recommend).
PAS behavior needs thoughtful use. Because each PAS level maps to a target speed, jumping straight into Level 4 or 5 can feel abrupt to new riders—especially in dual-motor. The fix is simple: start in PAS 1–2, then step up as the road opens.
Tires are grippy but heavy. The 4-inch rubber enhances float and comfort, yet it also adds rolling mass. If your riding is 95% pavement, a lighter, low-profile tread could sharpen acceleration and add range.
Large frame feel. With a 5’6″–6’11″ recommended height window, smaller riders at the edge of the range may feel stretched with the stock cockpit. A shorter stem and swept bar can dial in fit.

Feature verdict: The F1’s spec sheet reads like a wish list for mixed-terrain riders. You get the punch of all-wheel drive, a battery sized to support it, and real-world touches (rack, fenders, lights) that many rivals make you buy separately. The only obvious gap is rear suspension, though the fat tires and fork absorb enough chatter to keep comfort high for most riders. For pavement-heavy use, consider swapping to a faster-rolling fat-tire tread to unlock a little more range and agility.
Assembly & Setup
Out of the box, assembly is straightforward: install the front wheel, handlebar, seatpost, pedals, and front fender/headlight bracket, then align the brake calipers and check rotor clearance. The wheel/tire package is substantial—use the quick-release safely and tighten all through-axle and stem bolts to spec. Inflate tires to low 20s PSI for comfort on mixed surfaces or mid-teens for sand/snow.
Before your first ride, set the PAS max level you’re comfortable with, confirm front/rear brake bite points, and verify that single/dual-motor switching behaves as expected on the display. If you’re in a jurisdiction with e-bike speed limits, use the display’s settings to cap top speed accordingly.
Performance & Ride Impressions
Acceleration & speed: In dual-motor mode, the Zeegr F1 launches with a smooth but unmistakable shove. PAS 3 feels like the sweet spot for city riding—quick to 20–24 mph without being frenetic. PAS 4–5 are best kept for open roads or long, empty bike paths where the bike can stretch its legs toward its 35-mph claim.
Climbing: This is where the F1 earns its keep. On steep grades that have single-motor hub bikes clawing for grip, the F1 simply motors up. The front hub pulls the bike into the slope while the rear pushes—traction and momentum work together, and you spend less time weaving or standing on the pedals.
Handling & stability: The long wheelbase and 4-inch rubber make the bike feel planted. Through gravel bends the tires track predictably; on pavement the ride is Cadillac-smooth. At slow speeds the big tires and weight can feel ponderous, so ease into tight U-turns and give yourself room when threading through bollards.
Braking: The hydraulic system has proper modulation and strong peak power. Two-finger pulls from the hoods (or one from the flats) scrub speed quickly without drama. As with any new disc setup, expect some bedding-in during the first few rides.
Comfort: The fork’s lockout is useful—open it on rough roads, close it when you want a more direct feel and better efficiency. The stock saddle is average; add a suspension seatpost for rough-trail days and you’ll be golden.
Noise & refinement: Dual hubs are never silent when worked hard, but the sound is a muted whir rather than a grind. Cable routing is tidy, and the included phone holder is a surprisingly handy touch for navigation.
Range & Battery Behavior
Real-world range always depends on rider weight, terrain, temperature, and how much you lean on throttle. Bluvall quotes 40–60 miles in PAS and 24–31 miles on throttle. That aligns with expectations for a 1,075Wh pack feeding two 1,000W hubs.
If you want to max range:
- Ride single-motor for flats and rolling terrain; kick in dual only for hills or loose surfaces.
- Keep tires at efficient pressures for your surface.
- Sit in PAS 2–3, shift the 7-speed drivetrain to keep cadence comfortable, and let the controller sip power rather than chug it.
Charging with the 3A brick is genuinely convenient: plug in after dinner, unplug in the morning, and you’re set for the day.
Safety, Legality & Etiquette
The Zeegr F1’s potential 35-mph speed places it beyond standard Class 3 limits in many regions. Fortunately, the display allows speed limiting. If your local trails or bike paths are Class-restricted, set the limit and stick to it. Always wear a proper helmet, use lights in traffic even during the day, and remember that fat-tire mass increases stopping distances—leave more room than you’re used to from a lightweight analog bike.
Maintenance & Upgrades
- Brake pads/rotors: Inspect regularly; hydraulic systems make swaps easy.
- Tires: Great all-terrain grip stock; consider a lower-rolling-resistance fat tire if you ride mostly pavement.
- Drivetrain: Keep the 7-speed clean and lubed; the motors do the heavy lifting, but a well-kept chain preserves efficiency.
- Comfort: A suspension seatpost (and possibly a gel saddle) is the highest-value upgrade for longer rides.
- Security: Add a quality U-lock and consider a GPS tracker; high-power e-bikes are theft magnets.
Comparisons & Buying Tips
Within the AWD fat-tire category, the Zeegr F1 stands out for its battery size, included commuter hardware, and the hydraulic brake spec at this price. Many competitors cut corners with mechanical brakes or smaller 48V 15–17.5Ah packs; those bikes feel strong on short test rides but fade early on long routes. The F1’s bigger tank lets you enjoy dual-motor more often without babysitting the battery meter.
Fit is worth a final word. The F1 favors medium-to-tall riders. If you’re closer to 5’6″, consider a shorter stem and/or swept-back handlebar to bring the controls to you. Riders over 6′ will appreciate the generous reach and tall stack out of the gate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I ride with just one motor to save power?
Yes. The F1 lets you toggle single-motor mode for efficiency and dual-motor when you want full traction and acceleration.
Is the battery removable?
Yes. It’s a removable 48V 22.4Ah pack with keys, so you can charge it off-bike or bring it indoors in cold climates.
What’s the real top speed?
Bluvall lists 35 mph. Reaching and sustaining that depends on rider weight, terrain, and battery state. Many riders will see high-20s to low-30s on flats; downhill you’ll go faster.
What terrain is it best for?
Exactly the stuff that frustrates regular bikes: snow, sand, gravel, rutted paths, and steep paved climbs. It’s happy as a commuter, too, thanks to the rack/fenders/lights.
What about water resistance?
Normal rain rides are fine and the battery housing indicates IP65 water resistance. As always, avoid submersion and hose-spraying electronics directly.
Final Breakdown
9.1 / 10
The Bluvall Zeegr F1 is a powerhouse that stays practical. Dual motors erase hills and loose surfaces; the big battery keeps the fun going; and hydraulic brakes provide the control you want at speed. Yes, it’s heavy and unsprung at the rear, but those are fair tradeoffs for the stability, utility, and value delivered here. If you’ve outgrown the limits of single-motor fat-tire bikes—or you simply want a commuter that refuses to be boring—the Zeegr F1 is an easy recommendation.
Recommendation: Buy it if you want AWD confidence, real-world range, and a complete kit in the box. Skip it only if you need a featherweight city runabout or must store your bike up flights of stairs.
