CSC Motorcycles Offers the BEST E-Bike for LESS!

CSC Motorcycles has a well-earned reputation for delivering full-featured motorcycles at huge savings direct to the buyer. CSC models combine the most popular features, volume production and direct sales to offer motorcycles with upgraded components for less than the stripped-down models from competitors. Direct sales – bypassing dealer markups and added fees – saves CSC buyers hundreds of dollars.

XP750-20 White right side

NOW, CSC brings this same smart sourcing and money-saving direct delivery to electric bicycles with the new XP750-26 and XP750-20. These fat-tire bikes are loaded with solid designs, top quality components and accessories typically found in bikes that sell for hundreds more. Delivered to your door for only $1,768 for the 20 inch or $1,788 for the 26 inch with free rear rack and fenders for a limited time, the new CSC E-bikes are BEST BUYS!

“I became frustrated when I was shopping for an electric-assist bicycle, trying to sort through the cheap junk and the expensive stuff that costs more than our motorcycles,” explained Steve Seidner, CSC’s president. “After doing extensive research, I was able to source the exact componentry to build an e-bike that is the perfect balance of quality and value.”

CSC offers two E-bike models: the XP750-26 with 26-inch wheels and the XP750-20 with 20-inch wheels. Both models are built on a strong and lightweight 6061 precision-welded aluminum frame. The frame is the “backbone” of any bike, and extra-cost features were engineered into the XP750 frames like forged dropouts, water bottle cage mounts and an aluminum bottle holder, frame tabs to mount fenders or racks, and a rear kickstand. (See the CSC Accessories, including front basket, rear rack, fenders and more HERE.)

CSC Ft750 E-fat bike

Suspension Front Fork – with adjustments and lockout

Rider comfort and trail performance is aided by an aluminum front suspension fork with gold-anodized tubes. This upgraded fork provides 3.94 inches (100mm) of bump-absorbing travel and can be fine-tuned with eight levels of damping and spring pre-load adjustment, plus a lockout setting.

XP750-26 Dimesions and Measurements

Both the 26-inch and 20-inch XP750 bikes roll on double-wall aluminum alloy wheels laced with stainless steel 12-gauge spokes. Four-inch Kenda Juggernaut tires provide a smooth ride on any surface and added traction on loose sand, rocks, and even snow! The XP750-26 wheels and tires have an outer diameter of over 30-inches for maximum ground clearance on rougher terrain, while the 20-inch wheels on the XP750-20 provides a lower center of gravity and lower seat height for added stability. Ask CSC which model is right for your intended riding. Here is a video review by Electrek that shows the differences between the two sizes.

The quality continues with lightweight aluminum pedals, crank set, and tapered handlebars. Both models provide pedal power through a dependable Shimano 7-speed freewheel (14- to 28-tooth range), Shimano Acera derailleur, and 42-tooth front drive sprocket. Gear shifts are controlled by a Shimano index shifter which clearly displays the gear selected. Inner and outer chain ring guards are included on the front crank and an added guard is attached to the frame to protect the rear derailleur.

XP750-20 Measurements and Dimensions

Stopping power is provided by top-of-the-line Tektro hydraulic brakes mated with huge 180mm stainless steel discs – NOT the basic mechanical cable brakes found on most mid-range fat bikes. All these features combine to make the CSC bikes unmatched in this price range.

XP750 Rear Brake Rotor

But there is MORE! For the same low price, the CSC E-bikes include a powerful, top-rated 750-watt Bafang motor paired with an efficient brushless controller which offers five levels of pedal-assist. The thumb-operated throttle can power the XP750 to 20 mph (max speed for Class 2 electric bikes) without even pedaling. Adding pedal power can boost maximum speed of the XP750 above 25 mph.

XP750 Shifter

Both XP750 E-bikes use the same high-quality Panasonic 48-volt lithium ion batteries. Rated at 653 watt-hours of energy, this is enough for a full day of riding 25 to 40 miles, depending on the amount of pedal assistance provided by the rider. The XP750 uses a battery pack that locks into the frame’s downtube for a clean appearance.

Full Color LCD

An LCD display on the handlebars monitors speed, pedal-assist rate, battery level, trip information and even ambient temperature. Other added cost convenience and safety items are included in the FT750 packages including LED headlight, taillight, and a USB port to power electronic devices!

You will not find an E-bike with ALL these features for less anywhere. You could pay the same price or more for a NON-electric fat bike with similar construction and components! The new CSC XP750 fat tire E-bikes can be purchased now for ONLY $1,768 for the 20 inch and $1,788 for the 26 inch with free rear rack and fenders for a limited time.  This price INCLUDES free shipping anywhere in the contiguous 48 U.S. states.

This LOW, LOW price is only possible due to CSC’s high-volume production and innovative business model of selling direct to consumers. Like all CSC Motorcycles, the new XP750 E-bikes are backed by CSC’s exceptional customer service, a 12-month warranty, an inventory of 100% of the bike parts, and a full range of exclusive accessories.

Contact CSC to order your new XP750 E-bike. Ask about bike accessories, parts and tools also available from CSC. With the money you save, why not order TWO CSC fat tire bikes and share the fun?

CSC electric fat bike

Please note that shipping the E-bike directly to your address necessitates some very basic assembly. Buyers will need to install the handlebars, pedals, front wheel, lights, etc. But this process is easy! Mastering these few steps will help you maintain your new bike in proper operating condition. If you don’t feel up to the assembly, a friend or family member or neighborhood handyman may handle the assembly. Here is a short video that illustrates the entire assembly process.

RevZilla Reviews the 2020 CSC RX4 Adventure Bike!

Our friends at RevZilla had the chance recently to put the 2020 CSC RX4 to the test on a 600-mile dual sport test. Overall, this ride report was very favorable to the new 2020 model from CSC Motorcycles. The reviewer, Ari Henning, summarized his review by saying, “There isn’t a motorcycle on the market that offers so much for so little.”

CSC RX4

This was the GOAL when designing the 450cc RX4 for the North American market! CSC Motorcycles wanted the RX4 to answer the demands of riders that:

  1. Want or need a more powerful motorcycle than the VERY POPULAR and PROVEN 250cc CSC RX3 Adventure.
  2. Want a full featured “adventure” motorcycle without the high price of the other choices on the market.

Ari Henning agreed there is a need for a midsize ADV cycle and said, “If I had my way, there’d be a key to a BMW R 1200 GS or a Honda Africa Twin in my pocket, but neither my bank account nor my garage can afford that size dent. I’m sure plenty of you can relate.” Note: the current list price for a BMW 1200 GS is $19,145, and the Honda CRF 1000L “Africa Twin” is $17,199, depending on options.

At only $4,995.00 (plus fees), the 2020 CSC RX4 is an unmatched value!

CSC RX4

The article lists the LONG set of standard features included with the CSC RX4:

  • Powerful 450cc single cylinder, liquid cooled, fuel-injected engine
  • Adjustable windshield
  • LED lights and turn signals
  • Full electronic dash with charging outlets
  • 300-watt alternator to power 12-volt accessories, prewired switches on the handlebars
  • ABS brakes – with optional CSC disconnect switch
  • 3-gallon gas tank with locking cap
  • Adjustable suspension
  • Comfortable 2-up touring seat
  • Engine bars
  • Aluminum rims on spoked wheels with tube tires
  • 2-year unlimited mileage warranty – with coast-to-coast coverage

In addition, CSC also offers a wide variety of options including cast wheels with tubeless tires, full aluminum skid plate, knobby dual-sport tires, and many reasonably-priced racks and soft and hard luggage options.

The ride report also pointed out some criticisms of the RX4, specifically mentioning the 6-speed transmission and throttle response when riding in town. It should be noted that, like the CSC RX3, riders have noted a marked improvement in shifting smoothness and engine response after a break-in period and the first oil change on the new bike.

But the article praised the CSC RX4 on the open road. Ari Henning wrote, “The ability to inhale miles is a key aspect of any ADV, and the CSC does it well. Really well, actually.” He praised the comfortable riding position and aerodynamics of the RX4, including the wide, firm seat that delivered all-day comfort. The 450cc single-cylinder motor was described as “well-balanced”, “quick revving”, and reported to cruise effortlessly at 70 MPH and 7,250 RPM – with reserve power to sprint to 80 or 90 MPH for passing. Ari averaged over 49 MPG on and off road, which returned a comfortable 250-mile range on the 5.3-gallon fuel tank.

To be clear, CSC Motorcycles never promised the new 2020 RX4 would be the “ultimate” ADV motorcycle. Ari pointed out that 450cc engine matched with the 400-pound bike is a handful on difficult off road trails – especially with the stock 80/20 street tires. The good news, the RX4 proved to be tough and unbreakable! He said, “As difficult as my off-road excursion was (my riding partners, Zack and Spenser, on more capable machines, struggled a bit as well) and as many times as I threw the CSC at the earth, nothing actually broke besides a mirror. So if you’re worried about the RX4 disintegrating when the riding gets rough, don’t sweat it.”

CSC RX4

Mixed on and off-road capabilities highlight another design goal for the 2020 CSC RX4 “adventure” motorcycle:

  1. Create a mid-size cycle that is not only less expensive than other models, but also smaller, lighter, and less complex.

The CSC RX4 is intentionally designed for the rider that does NOT want or need a 525-pound Honda or 540-pound BMW motorcycle with electronic suspension, traction control, electric windshield along with overpriced parts and maintenance. The fact is many RX4 buyers CAN afford the more expensive options, but have intentionally downsized to the lighter, less powerful, and less expensive RX4. Many CSC Motorcycle owners have years of experience on bigger cruisers, too.

The RX4 was never designed to compete “head-to-head” with the 1,170cc BMW 1200GS or 1,000cc Africa Twin – or the KTM 1290, for that matter. Nor is the RX4 designed to challenge a street-legal enduro bike like the KTM 500 on technical single-track. Instead, the 450cc CSC RX4 delivers a 60% increase in horsepower over the minimalist 250cc CSC RX3, with less than a 20% increase in dry weight. The CSC RX4 (like it’s RX3 little brother) is designed to be a fun, nimble dirt road adventure cruiser or “ADV Lite” touring bike.

Ultimately, EVERY “dual sport” motorcycle is a compromise. Some are more street oriented, and others are more off road capable. Beyond the design specs, your final choice must always factor in the purchase price and maintenance costs. Here is how Ari Henning put it: “So if you want a cheap, sport-touring bike that’s all-day comfortable, the RX4 is a decent choice. But if your adventures are more off-road oriented or precision is important to you, then you’re probably better off with something else, even if it means buying used or spending more money.”

We would like to thank Ari and RevZilla for the honest ride report and great photos. The article confirms both the strengths and limitations of the $4,995.00 2020 CSC RX4. You DON’T need to spend $20,000 to enjoy great dual sport adventures. CSC Motorcycles will deliver your new RX4 for free. You can be riding in a week – not saving another $15,000, making payments for years, or rebuilding a used “project” bike.

We hope that you agree that the RX4 is a fantastic vehicle to customize for your riding style and intended destinations. The full range of CSC accessories can transform the base RX4 into a capable, long-distance touring motorcycle to match your needs. Fully accessorized, you will save as much as 75% on the “precision” alternatives – as Ari categorized them. It is also important to note that CSC includes a two-year warranty that covers you anywhere in the U.S. and stocks 100% of the parts for the RX4 and all CSC models. Routine maintenance is easy with the online tutorials at CSCMotorcycles.com.

For more information on the CSC RX4, contact us today! 2020 models are in stock and ready to ship to your door – for FREE! Ask also about package deals on pre-installed options like racks, luggage, tires, and electrical accessories.

City Slicker Demo Units Price Drop!

We have 5 City Slickers from our demo fleet that we are blowing out at just $1,895 (plus fees)! These 2019 units have ultra-low miles and include our one-year warranty, plus the latest motor-controller programming. At $600 less than the 2020s, they’ll go quickly. Call us today (800-884-4173) so you don’t miss out on this screamin’ deal!

A 2019 City Slicker can be yours for just $1,895, plus standard PDI and doc fees.

The fun and easy-to-ride City Slicker is a thrilling toy that’s much more than a toy. It makes errands a joy and trips to the gas station obsolete. 

Electric power is changing the way we consider motor vehicles, and the City Slicker takes that energy to create an entertaining city commuter, ultra-agile errand runner, and a sure way to put a smile on your face. And it’s as simple as can be – just twist and go! Forget worrying about how to manipulate a clutch or when to shift gears.

A brushless 1500-watt electric motor powers the City Slicker, with up to 3200 watts of peak power, fed by a lithium battery rated at 1872 watt-hours. The rear wheel is driven by a silent belt, combining with the quiet motor to create a peaceful riding experience. A Cineco motor controller operates via a CAN-bus system and has been updated to smooth throttle response, plus it enables regenerative braking to feed electrons back into the battery when decelerating. 

An LED halo ring for the headlight and LED turnsignals are standard equipment.

Range can reach as much as 60 miles, depending on usage and the selected riding mode. Eco mode yields the greatest range but caps speeds to 37 mph. Engaging the bike’s Power mode allows out-sprinting urban traffic and enables an electronically limited top speed of 46.6 mph. An intelligent BMS (battery monitoring system) automatically prevents overcharging, over-discharge and overheating. 

The 1.9 KWh battery can be recharged via a normal 110V household outlet, requiring 6 to 8 hours to top off from a completely depleted state; zero to 90% is much quicker. All electric connectors incorporate automotive-type waterproofing. 

The City Slicker’s feathery 220-pound weight combines with a tidy 49.8-inch (1265mm) wheelbase to deliver unparalleled agility and maneuverability. Short riders will appreciate the accessible 29.9-inch seat height. Heavy riders will be pleased with the 330-pound weight capacity enabled by a robotically welded frame that is powder-coated for a durable finish. 

Bumps are absorbed by an inverted fork and a preload-adjustable monoshock, while braking duties are handled by disc brakes and twin-piston calipers at both ends. 

The City Slicker features LCD digital instrumentation that includes battery-status and temperature info.

LCD digital instrumentation includes battery status and even ambient temperature.

CSC Shows Off At Adventure Expo

Our RX4s and TT250s proudly stood out front of our display at the Adventure Expo.

CSC Motorcycles made some waves last weekend at the Four Wheeler Adventure Expo in Cost Mesa, California, bringing over hundreds of attendees who were attracted to the incredible value of our bikes. The inaugural event drew in thousands of enthusiasts who were looking for inspiration for their next adventures.  

We brought in nearly our full lineup of bikes, from our range-topping RX4s to our value-packed TT250s, as well as our stylish SG250 cafe racer and electric City Slicker. We also had a ton of people check out our new FT750 line of fat-tire electric-assist bicycles.

Our FT750 e-bikes were a big hit with attendees. Shimano hydraulic brakes and shifters, Samsung battery, and 750 watts of power in an aluminum chassis. Just $1,688 with FREE shipping to your door. Racks and fenders are accessory items that can be purchased separately.

Almost everyone was surprised at the amazing value offered with our bikes, and it was great to meet up with many of our loyal customers.

When one guy read the TT250’s $2,195 price, he remarked, “Is that just for the front end…?” Nope, that’s the price for the entire street-legal bike!

Our next event will have us traveling a bit further from our headquarters in Azusa, California, as we’ll be packing up in May to attend the mammoth Overland Expo in Flagstaff, Arizona. We hope to see many of you there over the May 15-17 weekend!

We’re also considering leading a ride from our Azusa, California, headquarters to Flagstaff. Let us know if you would have any interest in being part of a 500-mile CSC group ride! With 450 miles to travel if we stuck to the main highways, we can’t go too far astray, but there’s plenty of interesting places to see along the way! Check out this link for a likely route from CSC to Flagstaff. https://goo.gl/maps/axpgzeCv5FDsoz597

CSC’s technical expert Joey Ducut (with the yellow badge) shares his knowledge with a new fan.

So, whaddaya think, is there enough interest in this trek for us to organize it? If there is, we’d provide a parts/service discount, t-shirt, ride decal, and an arrival dinner for anyone who wants to join us!

Please post in the comments section if you think you’d like to be part of the ride!

This young lady fell in love with the cafe-racer style of our SG250 San Gabriel.
We love to see smiles on kids’ faces when they’re on our bikes!
The SG250 proved to be irresistible to kids of all ages!

Many Updates From CSC!

Hello again, CSC fans! There’s been a ton of new developments here at CSC, and we’re glad to share them with you here. If you’re not yet a subscriber to our blog, please sign up in the form directly to the right of this text ==>

A highlight for us was rolling out our hero video for the RX4, which coincided with our announcement that we were able to reduce the price of our headlining bike to just $4,995! If you haven’t yet seen the video, which was shot locally in the San Bernardino mountains,  please check it out. We’re proud of how it turned out, and we hope you enjoy it, too!

More info on the RX4 can be found here.

Another momentous step for us has been the arrival of our FT750 electric bicycles, which have been shipping out all week! They nicely augment our motorcycle lineup, including our electric City Slicker Grom-fighter and Wiz scooter. The fat-tire FT750s are available in two colors and in two versions, both priced at just $1,688 including free shipping.

The FT750-26 is a traditionally styled mountain bike with 26-inch wheels, while the FT750-20 has 20-inch wheels and a lower step-over height that better suits shorter riders. Both have a powerful 750-watt hub motor and an integrated and lockable Samsung battery. High-end Shimano hydraulic brakes and Shimano gearing combine with a fully adjustable fork suspension to deliver a premium ride experience. Shop it here.

Everyone who rides our FT750 says it’s even more fun to ride than they expected, including me!

We’ve got lots more good stuff on the way, including hero videos for our value-packed TT250 and our stylish SG250 cafe racer, plus a new video for the lineup of FT750s that will be more fun to watch than the picture-based video seen below.

And if you’ve ever wanted to see our full line of bikes and motorcycles in person, you can come out to meet us at the Four-Wheeler Adventure Expo in Costa Mesa, California (March 7-8), or at the Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, Arizona (May 15-17). We hope to see some of you there!

New CSC FT750 Fat Tire E-bikes On The Way!

At CSC, we love everything with two wheels. Now we’re bringing that enthusiasm for motorcycles into the bicycle market! And, yes, they are bicycles with motors! The FT750s are electric-assist bikes using high-quality components from Shimano, Samsung and Bafang to bring the best value in e-bikes to our fans.

Here is the FT750-26, which identifies a 750-watt motor and 26-inch wheels. Lightweight aluminum is used for the frame, tapered handlebar, pedals and crank.

The FT750-20 is the baby brother, with 20-inch wheels and a lower seat height but using all the same high-quality components.

 

The rear wheel uses a 7-speed Shimano driveline with the hub-mounted motor.

 

The Samsung battery is hidden in the frame downtube, while the fork has 4 inches of travel. An LED headlight and a USB port is included in the $1,688 price.

 

The FT750 has an easy-to-use thumb throttle and Shimano index shifter.

 

Both models are equipped with Shimano hydraulic brakes and huge 180mm stainless steel brake discs.

 

 

Curious to find out more about the FT750? Read on or click here to order yours today!

AZUSA, Calif. – CSC Motorcycles, renowned for its exceptional customer service, brings its smart sourcing and innovative delivery model to electric bicycles with the new FT750-26 and FT750-20. Both fat-tire bikes are specced out with quality components and desirable features that deliver unmatched value in the e-bike marketplace. Delivered to your door for only $1,688. 

“I became frustrated when I was shopping for an electric-assist bicycle, trying to sort through the cheap junk and the expensive stuff that costs more than our motorcycles,” explained Steve Seidner, CSC’s president. “After doing extensive research, I was able to source the exact componentry to build an e-bike that is the perfect balance of quality and value.” 

The FT750 is built around a lightweight aluminum chassis rather than heavier steel frames, and it uses a battery pack that fits integrally into the frame’s downtube for an ultra-clean appearance compared to the tacked-on battery of lesser competitors. The battery uses high-quality Samsung lithium cells to deliver 653 watt-hours of energy, enough to help power the bike for 25 to 40+ miles, depending on the amount of pedal assistance provided by its rider. 

The lockable battery pack sends its energy to an intelligent brushless controller and then to a first-rate Bafang motor mounted in the rear-wheel hub that delivers a healthy 750 watts of power. Pedal-assist rates can be adjusted to five levels, while a thumb-operated throttle can power the FT750 to 20 mph (max speed for Class 2 electric bikes) without even pedaling. Adding pedal power can boost maximum speed above 25 mph. 

Like the Samsung battery, Bafang motor, and 6061 aluminum frame, the rest of the FT750’s components are also premium quality. Some bicycle brands use primitive cable-actuated brakes, while CSC chooses Shimano hydraulic brakes biting on huge 180mm stainless steel discs for superb control. 

The esteemed Shimano brand is also found on the 7-speed Freewheel gear set and Tourney derailleur that provides adaptable gear ratios to tackle everything from steep hills to urban road speeds. The Shimano index shifter clearly displays which gear is selected. A dual-sided front sprocket guard ensures the chain remains on track even when ridden over rough terrain. 

Rider comfort is aided by a front suspension with 3.94 inches (100mm) of bump-absorbing travel, able to be fine-tuned with 8 levels of damping adjustment plus a lockout setting, as well as spring-preload adjustability. Fat Kenda Juggernaut tires look brawny and provide additional bump absorption. 

Lightweight aluminum is also used for key components such as the pedals and crank, wheel rims, and tapered handlebar. Instrumentation is via a 2.6 x 3.8-inch LCD display that monitors speed, pedal-assist rate, battery charge, trip information and even ambient temperature. 

Thoughtful convenience and safety items are part of the FT750 package. LED headlights and taillights enhance rider conspicuity, as does a handlebar-mounted bell. A handy USB port is provided to power electronic devices, and a water bottle holder enables riders to stay hydrated. A protective cage is fitted over the derailleur to prevent drivetrain damage, and frame tabs are ready to mount rear fenders or racks. 

In addition to the FT750-26, CSC offers a version with 20-inch wheels (FT750-20) that reduces the step-over and seat heights but retains all of the features of its bigger brother. CSC’s electric bicycle lineup will be growing in the coming months, and a range of convenience and comfort accessories will soon follow.  

The FT750’s modest $1,688 price is due to CSC’s innovative business model of selling direct to consumers, and the price includes free shipping anywhere in the contiguous 48 U.S. states. CSC’s bikes include a 12-month warranty backed by a company dedicated to outstanding customer service. 

The FT750s are available in Gloss White or Matte Black and are simply ordered via CSC-ebike.com. 

CSC Electric Bicycles uses a direct path to market to maximize cost efficiencies, bringing high-quality vehicles to customers at an economical price. CSC is renowned for exceptional customer service, and our products are supported with a one-year warranty.
