The JasionBike Hunter Pro* is designed for riders who want serious power and off-road performance, all without giving up the convenience of a folding e-bike. It builds on the success of the previous X-Hunter model, adding more torque, better suspension, and a host of upgrades that make it one of the most capable compact e-bikes in its class.

Marketed as “your first premium e-bike”, the Hunter Pro blends rugged design with cutting-edge specifications. It’s aimed at riders who want an electric bike to do it all—something that can handle commutes, trails, and adventures outside the city limits.

Designed for strength and versatility

At first glance, the Hunter Pro looks like a small tank on two wheels. Its 20×4-inch fat tires and full suspension frame give it an aggressive stance and help it soak up bumps and rough surfaces with ease. These wide tires improve traction on dirt, gravel, sand or snow, giving riders confidence on almost any terrain.

Despite its sturdy build, the bike remains very practical thanks to its foldable frame. It folds down to 39.8 x 25.6 x 31.5, which is small enough to fit in the trunk of a car or RV storage compartment. This makes it ideal for apartment dwellers or anyone who wants to take their bike on trips without needing a roof rack. The Hunter Pro also comes in three color options – Beast Brown, Storm Blue, and Phantom Black – all of which give the bike a bold, distinctive look.

Power under the hood

JasionBike clearly designed the Hunter Pro to impress with raw numbers. The bike’s 1800W brushless motor delivers a massive 95Nm of torque, allowing it to climb steep hills and accelerate quickly. The brand claims the Hunter Pro can go from 0 to 20 mph in about five seconds, making it among the fastest e-bikes in the compact category.

Maximum speed is listed at over 30 mph, depending on local conditions and regulations. With five levels of pedal assist and a twist throttle, riders can adjust the amount of assistance they get from the engine, or let the engine do all the heavy lifting.

Power is provided by a 48V, 15Ah lithium battery, providing a total of 720 watt-hours of energy storage. According to the JasionBike’s specifications, this is enough for up to 80 miles under ideal conditions, although real-world mileage will vary based on terrain, assistance level, and rider weight. Charging takes approximately seven to eight hours.

Smooth, in control and confident

The Hunter Pro doesn’t just rely on power to impress, it’s designed for comfort and control, too. It features full suspension, including a 180mm front hydraulic fork and a Horstlink four-bar rear setup. This configuration helps absorb bumpy terrain shock, providing a smoother, more stable ride whether you’re on pavement, dirt, or rocky trails.

When combined with larger tires, the result should be a ride that feels stable and forgiving. You can stroll through cobblestone or uneven city streets without feeling a bump. The hydraulic suspension fork is also adjustable, allowing riders to tune it for comfort or performance. For braking, JasionBike upgraded the Hunter Pro with dual hydraulic disc brakes. They provide stronger, more consistent stopping power than traditional mechanical brakes, which is especially important on a high-speed e-bike of this size and weight.

Practical everyday features

In addition to performance, the Hunter Pro is packed with thoughtful features that make it practical for everyday use:

Rear Luggage Rack: Useful for carrying bags, groceries, or even a small passenger. Oversized saddle: Designed for comfort over long distances, especially on rough surfaces. Integrated Lighting: Includes bright headlight, brake light and turn signals for added safety. Smart App Connectivity: Lets you track trips, monitor battery status, and customize settings from your phone. LCD screen: displays speed, battery level, assistance mode and other basic information.

The Hunter Pro is also rated to handle a maximum payload of 400 pounds, making it a solid choice for larger riders or those who want to carry additional gear.

Fit and ergonomics

The bike’s geometry makes it accessible to a wide range of riders, from 5’2″ to 6’3″ in height. The seat adjusts between 30 inches and 37 inches from the ground, and the handlebar height is approximately 46 inches. At 82 pounds, it’s on the heavier side for a folding e-bike, but that’s typical for models with full suspension and fat tires. For riders who plan to transport it regularly, the folding feature is a huge benefit. Once folded, the bike can be easily stored indoors, in the car, or even under a desk in larger workspaces.

Performance in real-world scenarios

While the specs tell part of the story, what makes the Hunter Pro attractive is its versatility. It is designed to handle:

Urban Commuting: Powerful engine and long range make daily trips quick and efficient. OFF-ROAD EXPLORATION: Thick tires and full suspension make it easy to handle trails, gravel trails, and dirt roads. Leisure trips: Its ergonomic setup means you can enjoy longer weekend trips without getting tired. TRAVEL & STORAGE: The collapsible frame makes it easy to pack for road trips or RV camping.

This combination of performance and comfort is what sets the Hunter Pro apart. Cyclists don’t have to choose between a rugged adventure bike and a compact commuter bike, because this bike does both.

Everyday use and ownership

Each Hunter Pro comes with fenders, a rear rack, a charger, and a tool kit in the box. JasionBike offers a 1-year warranty, a 14-day return policy, and free shipping within the US (excluding Alaska and Hawaii). Shipping usually takes 2-4 business days from a US warehouse. The company also provides customer support via email and phone, reflecting its efforts to support the product with service and availability.

Value and market position

The Hunter Pro is currently listed at a selling price of around $1,149 USD, which is down from its regular price of $1,999 USD. This puts it in an interesting price bracket – competitive with mid-range e-bikes, but with performance closer to premium full suspension models. JasionBike markets the Hunter Pro as a direct successor to the X-Hunter, stating that it “honors the legacy” of the previous model while “pushing its limits in power and capability.” With nearly double the peak output of many commuter e-bikes, this model is clearly intended for riders who want something more capable than a city car.

Final thoughts

The JasionBike Hunter Pro is a folding e-bike that doesn’t compromise on performance. Its combination of full suspension, fat tires, long range, and rugged construction makes it suitable for a wide range of riders, from commuters to weekend explorers. It’s a bike that’s just as comfortable cruising around town as it handles forest trails or gravel roads. The foldable design adds practical convenience, while hydraulic brakes, app integration and built-in lighting complete the well-equipped package. If you’re looking for a capable, comfortable, high-powered e-bike that fits your car, the Hunter Pro is a compelling choice.
