Its ~78 lb weight and the cost of a replacement battery are the main cautions. - Author: Carlos Hickey - Tags: magicycle, reviews A 20-inch full-suspension step-thru fat-tire e-bike for riders who face sustained climbs and mixed surfaces. **Manufacturer:** [Magicycle](https://www.pnwebike.com/manufacturers/magicycle/) Review — specs unverified ## Is the Magicycle Deer 2.0 good for steep, mixed-surface riding? On paper it is a plausible fit: a 750 W hub motor with roughly 96 N·m of torque, a 52 V system and full suspension. Magicycle lists a 750 W hub motor and a 52 V system. Some marketing has cited 1,000 W and 100 N·m, and the battery capacity varies by listing. Motor 750 W hub Manufacturer claim; some marketing cites 1,000 W. Torque \~96 N·m Some marketing cites 100 N·m. Voltage 52 V Capacity varies by listing. ## Editor's note No firsthand observation, measurement, or owner quote was invented for this page. Motor, torque and battery capacity conflict between listings; both sets are shown and neither is chosen. ## Who this is for This suits a rider who wants full suspension, a low step-through and strong torque for sustained climbs, and who can store a \~78 lb bike at ground level. It is a poorer fit if you must lift it, if you need a settled battery capacity, or if the replacement battery cost matters to your five-year budget. ## Is 96 N·m enough for sustained PNW climbs? The torque claim is the reason to consider this over a basic commuter, and it is the figure to verify. Marketing has cited 100 N·m and a 1,000 W motor, which would be a different machine. No hill test is recorded, so treat the figure as the best available claim. ## What owners say No attributable owner sample is recorded for the Deer 2.0 in the sources used here, so this page makes no reliability claim. ## Where it falls short - Motor rating conflicts: 750 W listed, 1,000 W in some marketing. - Torque conflicts: \~96 N·m and 100 N·m. - Battery capacity varies by listing. - \~78 lb is a two-person lift for many riders. - Replacement battery cost is not published. ## Spec versus reality | Spec | Manufacturer claim | Independent / verified reality | | ------------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ | | Price | Not stated in the sources used | Confirm the current price with the seller. | | Motor | 750 W hub | Some marketing cites 1,000 W. | | Torque | \~96 N·m | Some marketing cites 100 N·m. | | Battery | 52 V; capacity varies | Ask which pack ships with your configuration. | | Weight | \~78 lb | Manufacturer-listed. | | Suspension | Full suspension | Manufacturer claim. | | Frame | 20-inch step-through | Manufacturer description. | | Replacement battery | Cost not published | Ask before buying; this is a long-term ownership cost. | ## PNW reality check #### Rain No ingress rating is recorded. Store it dry and charge indoors. #### Hills Torque is the claim that matters here. Verify the motor rating and test your own grade. #### Storage A 20-inch step-through needs ground-level space. #### Lifting \~78 lb is not a casual lift. Ask for the battery-removed weight before planning a rack. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is the motor 750 W or 1,000 W? Magicycle lists 750 W; some marketing cites 1,000 W. Confirm the rating on the invoice. ### What is the torque? About 96 N·m is listed, with 100 N·m in some marketing. No independent measurement exists. ### What battery does it use? A 52 V system, but capacity varies by listing. Confirm the pack before ordering. ### How much does it weigh? About 78 lb is listed. Ask for the battery-removed weight. ### Does it have full suspension? Yes, front and rear, according to the listing. ### What does a replacement battery cost? Not published in the sources used. Ask; it is a real ownership cost on a proprietary pack. ### Is it step-through? Yes, a 20-inch step-through frame. ### Is it legal on PNW paths? Confirm the class and motor rating in writing against Oregon and Washington rules. ## Sources 1. 2026-10-20 — Magicycle, [Deer 2.0 product listing](https://www.magicyclebike.com/products/magicycle-deer-step-thru-full-suspension-torque-sensor-ebike?ref=pnwebike.com).
