26 × 4-inch fat tires with pronounced tread, designed to provide grip across varied terrain.
Rear hub motor, sold in France limited to 250 W and 25 km/h. The listed torque is 95 Nm. The reviewer suspects it may deliver substantially more power when unrestricted, but this is an estimate, not a measured figure.
52 V, 15 Ah battery, integrated into the frame and removable with a key. The quoted theoretical range is about 80 km.
34 kg with the battery, relatively light compared with some fat bikes, which the reviewer says can weigh around 40 kg.
Dual assistance sensors: torque sensing is the default, with a pedal/cadence-sensor mode selectable from the handlebar.
Lockable front suspension fork; no rear suspension.
Logan hydraulic disc brakes with 180 mm rotors.
Entry-level Shimano-branded derailleur and drivetrain.
Color display showing speed, battery level, assistance level (0–5), trip and distance data, top speed, battery voltage, and stopwatch. It is generally readable but can reflect light.
USB-C charging port, front light, and integrated rear lights with visible brake lights.
High-step frame. A step-through version is also mentioned as having the same characteristics.
What the Reviewer Liked
Very good value for money: the reviewer gives the price as €1,300.
Attractive, well-finished appearance, particularly the textured matte green finish.
Strong grip, stability, and comfort. The wide tires, front suspension, and comfortable seat help smooth out rough roads.
Versatility for city use, hills, and off-road riding.
Effective climbing on steep slopes, including with the reviewer weighing 100 kg. The bike performs well even when restricted; unrestricted operation mainly changes the maximum speed.
Responsive torque assistance and precise, powerful, reassuring brakes.
Useful everyday equipment, especially the lighting and comprehensive display.
Convenient removable battery and easy-to-use controls.
Drawbacks and Caveats
The torque sensor is very sensitive: even light pedal pressure produces substantial assistance. The reviewer says this makes the bike less suitable for people who want a strenuous workout.
The reviewer found little practical difference between torque and pedal-sensor modes and usually stayed in torque mode.
The basic derailleur and limited gearing are a compromise. The motor helps on climbs, but riders relying more on their own pedaling may want more gears.
No rear suspension.
Mudguards and a rear rack are not included; they are optional and described as relatively expensive.
The glossy display surface can reflect light.
Although the bike is sold as road-legal in restricted form, the reviewer says it can be easily unrestricted. His higher-power estimate is speculative; users should observe applicable laws.
Comparisons and Riding Experience
The reviewer compares the Zenith favorably with other fat bikes he has tested, calling it relatively light and unusually good value for its price. He also notes that its drivetrain is more basic than the mountain-bike-level components found on some alternatives. Compared with bikes where torque and pedal sensors behave more distinctly, he found the difference here slight.
Verdict
The reviewer strongly recommends the Zenith as an affordable, capable, and versatile fat bike, particularly for riders who prioritize comfort, assistance, and all-terrain usefulness over athletic pedaling or premium gearing. The video gives no numerical rating.
Speaker Contributions
The review is presented by Lunaris, who draws on footage from several tests made with his brother’s channel, MC Aventure. He refers viewers to those videos for further riding tests, but the subtitles include no separate spoken assessment from his brother.
