Upway’s In-Depth Review of the Ford Mustang!
What makes the Ford Mustang an urban muscle bike?
Anything with the Ford name will have a focus on the motor, but what is built around the motor is just as important on the Ford Mustang e-Bike. Just like its automotive counterpart, the Mustang is a heavy-duty choice for tackling urban environments with confidence, speed, and comfort.
- Frame: The Ford Mustang comes with a beefy but lightweight aluminum frame that is ready to stand up to all of the challenges city riding presents. It puts the rider in an aggressive position, encouraging fast riding on a frame that is durable enough for anything you put in its path.
- Urban suspension: Despite being designed for road use, the Ford Mustang uses tarmac-tuned air shocks at both the front and rear of the bike. These shocks can be finely tuned via air pressure to match the rider’s weight, providing a custom fit. The Mustang can soak up vibrations from potholes and rough pavement with ease.
- Wheels: The Ford Mustang is equipped with 27.5-inch wheels, adding to the bike’s combination of nimble handling and city toughness. The wheels come with Pirelli Angel GT semi-slick tires. The tire is made with a street-tuned compound, optimizing the contact patch for cornering at high speeds.
What e-Bike features are on the Ford Mustang?
The power of the Ford Mustang is iconic, so it is no surprise that they decided to give the e-Bike Class 3 capabilities. When using pedal assist, the motor can assist up to 28 mph. There is also an option to use just the throttle, in which case the motor will cut out at 20 mph. This effectively makes the Ford Mustang a Class 2 and Class 3 e-Bike in one package.
- Drive Unit: The Ford Mustang comes with a custom Ford-branded rear wheel hub motor that offers up to 85 Nm of torque and 750 watts of power. This gives it a full horsepower of capability, testing the limits of what is still considered a bicycle in most states. This motor can turn the steepest urban climbs into the easiest part of your day.
- Cockpit: A custom cockpit integrates a full-color LED display with a one-piece handlebar design. The screen uses telemetry graphics inspired by the Ford Mustang digital infotainment dashboard system, giving you all your ride stats and motor settings in one place.
- Lighting: Like many other components on this bike, the lighting of the Ford Mustang e-Bike was inspired by the aesthetic of the sports car. Its LED taillights are fully functional, mimicking the same triple-bar design that you see on the car. The start button also looks like a red engine light, paying homage to an iconic car.
