Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer

What the Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer is built for

The Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer is an electric mountain bike for trails and off-road riding.

It has a 1,000 W motor, 90 Nm of torque and a top speed of 16 mph (25 km/h).

It carries a 960 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 75 miles (120 km) on a charge. Real-world range is usually lower than the rated figure: it falls with throttle use, hills, cold weather, rider weight and higher assist levels.

The Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer carries up to 399 lb (181 kg) including the rider, has full suspension and is rated IP54 against water.

In the United States the Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer sells for $699, below the median of $1,299 across 22 electric mountain bikes with a US price, among the more affordable models. That is $1 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer may be ridden

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 1,000 W motor is above the 250 W limit and its throttle moves it without pedalling, which the pedelec rules allow only as start-up help at walking pace. A model above those limits is treated as a moped there, with type approval, registration and insurance, unless the brand sells a version set to the European limits.

Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer safety certification

The brand's listing for the Lankeleisi RV700 Explorer does not state a UL 2849 or EN 15194 certification. New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849 to be sold or rented there, and California requires certified batteries from 2026; ask the seller for the certificate before buying.
