Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Jansno X50. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

8 reasons to buy

The X50 comes with lights with turn signals, a loud horn, and fenders.
The half-twist throttle is responsive and easy to modulate, according to testers.
Jansno includes assembly tools, a pump, a bike lock, and a neck buff.
Owners praise Jansno’s customer support for quickly resolving their issues.

Users can program the X50 to have up to nine levels of pedal assist.
Reviewers and buyers appreciate the upright riding position and comfortable ride on pavement.
Owners and testers enjoy the plush moto-style seat.
A tester maintains high speeds of 28mph to 30mph on flat ground with the bike unlocked.

15 reasons not to buy

Many owners report persistent flat tires and serious electrical failures shortly after purchase, including chargers, batteries, controllers, motors, and headlights.
Multiple buyers highlight the incomplete or sloppy frame welds, resulting in broken or bent frames.
Buyers and testers receive bikes with shipping damage, scratches, and parts loose in the packaging.
Two testers note a very long lag of around three seconds for pedal assist to activate.
Changing settings in the display is confusing, and the online user manual isn’t helpful.
Testing shows the mechanical disc brakes lack stopping power. The 160mm rotors are also too small for a heavy, high-speed e-bike.
Experts report ghost pedaling at speeds above 22mph.
Reviewers find the motor slow to accelerate and not exceptionally powerful.
The X50 is heavy at 88.1lb
With a 34" seat height, the X50 may be too tall for riders under 5’9”.
The suspension fork and rear shock are stiff, non-adjustable, and creaky, according to owners and reviewers.
The moped-style frame and fixed-height seat don’t allow enough leg extension for comfortable pedaling for most riders.
Testing shows the speedometer skews 2mph high and the battery indicator is inaccurate with the motor under load.
Reviewers complain about the floppy, rattling fenders.
The X50’s payload capacity is well below average at 264lb.

Bottom line

The Jansno X50 is a full-suspension moped-style e-bike with a 750W motor and fat tires. Complaints are seemingly endless. Owners and experts bemoan the low-quality frame and components, “underwhelming” performance on climbs, extremely laggy pedal assist, poor stopping power, inaccurate display metrics, and rattling fenders. The weight is also very high and the payload capacity is below average. Dozens of owners experience issues ranging from serious frame and electrical failures to broken components and shipping damage. The number and severity of problems reported by X50 owners indicates a blatant disregard for quality control from Jansno. This e-bike should be avoided.
