GT73 Electric Motorbike — Dirt Bike Presence. 1,747 Wh Dual Battery. $2,399.

Most eBikes at $2,399 give you one battery. The GT73 gives you two — a pair of removable 48V 18.2Ah packs totalling 1,747 Wh, roughly two and a half times the stored energy of a typical 720 Wh single-battery eBike at this price. That battery capacity is the first thing to understand about this machine, because it reframes every other number on the spec sheet. The 68–130 km rated range is credible because you have 1,747 Wh to work with. The 2,400W peak motor output and 126 N·m of torque are usable across the full ride because the energy is there to back them up. At 116 lbs, the weight makes sense for what you are carrying.

The GT73 is a motorbike-style platform sold with pedals, a Shimano 7-speed drivetrain, and a pedal-assist system. It has the 25″ off-road motorcycle tires, hydraulic double-wishbone suspension, aluminium hydraulic suspension fork, LED turn signals, and 2-in-1 brake and turn light of a small electric motorbike rather than a bicycle. At a 1,200W nominal motor and up to ~57 km/h (37 mph) on throttle, the GT73’s power and speed exceed the standard Canadian provincial eBike thresholds (typically 500W and 32 km/h assisted) — so where this machine is legal to ride is governed by the rules for higher-power vehicles, not the standard eBike rules, and varies by province. We address this directly below and in the Canadian eBike law guide →

Why 1,747 Wh Changes the Conversation

Single-battery eBikes at this price typically ship with one 48V pack in the 12–15Ah range (576–720 Wh). At Canadian temperatures and on variable terrain, real-world range on a single 720 Wh pack is meaningfully less than the rated figure. For a day that starts and ends at the same place, the question of having enough to come back is a real one.

The GT73 starts with 1,747 Wh — before you buy an accessory or an upgrade. Both batteries are removable, so each can charge independently overnight. The rated range of 68–130 km is a dual-battery figure; with derating for higher-throttle riding and Canadian temperatures, plan on the lower half of that envelope on cold days and demanding terrain.

• Two batteries, not one — both removable. Remove both for indoor charging. Lithium cells store and discharge better at room temperature than after a cold night in an unheated garage; keeping the packs warm overnight before a winter ride helps recover capacity that cold storage takes away. Charge them simultaneously on the included dual chargers or stagger them overnight.
• UL 2849 compliant. The battery system carries UL 2849 certification — the North American standard for eBike electrical system safety that covers cell-level protection, BMS behaviour, and fire risk. At 1,747 Wh, this certification matters. Full eBike battery safety and winter guide →
• 2,400W peak through 126 N·m. The 1,200W nominal motor peaks at 2,400W under heavy load — hill starts, loose terrain, soft ground. On a motorbike-style platform with 25″ off-road tires and both batteries loaded, that output is what gives the GT73 its acceleration character. 500W vs 750W vs 1,000W eBike motor guide →
• Snow Track Kit available. Select the GT73 + Snow Track Kit variant at checkout to add a winter track conversion that transforms the rear wheel into a snow-capable drive track. For Canadian riders planning full-season riding in snow, the kit is the correct configuration from day one.

Key Features

• 1,200W Nominal Motor (2,400W Peak) — 126 N·m Torque — A brushless hub motor rated 1,200W continuous, peaking at 2,400W under hard acceleration and sustained load. 126 N·m of torque feeds through the half-twist throttle or the cadence-based pedal assist. On a 116 lb motorbike-style platform, 2,400W peak produces the acceleration character this machine looks like it should have. For trail access, backcountry fire roads, and variable-terrain outings, the motor output is matched to the chassis geometry. How hub motors compare to mid-drives →
• Dual Removable 48V 18.2Ah Batteries — 1,747 Wh Total — UL 2849 — Two independent packs, each removable for indoor charging. UL 2849 certified for North American eBike electrical safety. Both packs included in the base price. Dual chargers included. Each pack charges in 9–10 hours on the 2A smart charger; run them in parallel overnight from separate outlets to charge both simultaneously. For Canadian winter, bring both packs inside before the temperature drops — lithium cells lose capacity in the cold and recover when stored at room temperature. Store at a partial state of charge between long off-season storage periods.
• 25″ Off-Road Motorcycle Tires on 7074 Aluminium Rims — Tyre Size 70/100-19 — The published tyre specification is a 70/100-19 motorcycle off-road tyre, not a bicycle tyre, mounted on 7074 aluminium alloy rims. The construction profile (tall sidewall, narrow-by-bicycle-standards width, 19″ rim) is a motorcycle wheel format rather than a bicycle wheel format, which is what gives the GT73 its motorbike presence and changes how the tread responds on loose ground. Not a fat tire; a motorcycle tire.
• Aluminium Hydraulic Suspension Fork (Front) — The published fork specification is an aluminium hydraulic suspension fork. Combined with the 19″ rim and 70/100-19 tyre footprint, the front end is built for the loads of a motorbike-style platform rather than the lighter loads a bicycle fork is rated for.
• Hydraulic Double-Wishbone Suspension — The published suspension specification is a hydraulic double-wishbone system — a linkage architecture more common on off-road utility vehicles than on bicycles. On a 116 lb machine carrying a rider at speed over rough access roads, the suspension is load-bearing equipment, not a comfort feature. It is built to keep the tyre in contact with the ground when the terrain surface is not flat.
• Hydraulic Disc Brakes (Front & Rear) with Electronic Brake — The published braking specification is hydraulic disc actuation front and rear, plus an electronic brake function. At 116 lbs carrying a rider at speeds approaching the published 57 km/h ceiling, braking authority is not a secondary specification. Hydraulic disc is the brake type appropriate to a machine this heavy moving at this speed on variable terrain.
• Half-Twist Throttle — Full Torque from a Standing Start — Half-twist throttle delivers full motor torque from a complete stop with no pedalling required. For re-starting on a loose or uphill surface where momentum has been lost, throttle-only power from both hands is the correct control interface for this type of machine. The 3-mode × 5-level pedal assist handles sustained riding; the throttle handles the moments where you need direct motor response.
• Shimano 7-Speed Drivetrain — Shimano gearing on a motorbike-style platform extends range by allowing the rider to maintain efficient cadence on varied terrain. Seven speeds cover the span from low-cadence climbs to open-road spinning. Every bike shop in Canada stocks Shimano drivetrain parts. Field maintenance on a backcountry trip is a realistic option rather than a special order. The cadence sensor (not a torque sensor — see Honest Take below) reads pedal rotation and triggers motor assist based on whether you are pedalling, not how hard.
• Full LED Lighting — Turn Signals — 2-in-1 Brake/Turn Light — Front LED headlight, rear LED tail light, left and right turn signals, and a 2-in-1 brake and turn light at the rear. This is the lighting layout of a small motorbike, not an eBike with a clip-on headlight. (The lighting is not represented as DOT-approved or otherwise certified for any specific provincial road-legal standard — legality on public roads is governed by the eBike-classification question covered in the Honest Take.) For early-morning access trails, late-evening backcountry returns, or any use in low-visibility conditions, the integrated lighting is functional. Turn signals make the rider’s intentions visible to other traffic.
• IPX4 Water Resistance — Rated IPX4 for splash resistance from all directions. Suitable for riding in rain, crossing shallow water, and wet trail conditions. Not submersion-rated. Rinse mud from the battery contacts and charging port after wet outings. For dedicated wet-season riding in British Columbia or the Atlantic provinces, IPX4 is the appropriate minimum rating for a machine used on variable terrain year-round.
• Carbon Steel Frame — The published frame material is carbon steel rather than aluminium. Steel is heavier than aluminium for an equivalent frame and tends to handle repeated impact loads through fatigue cycles differently — relevant on a motorbike-style platform at 116 lbs operating under a 330 lb payload off-road. Not a lightweight cross-country racer; a workhorse-format frame.

What We’d Change (Honest Take)

Zeus carries the GT73 because the dual-battery value proposition at this price is genuine. Here is where it asks something of you in return:

• Cadence sensor, not a torque sensor. The pedal assist responds to whether you are pedalling, not how hard. At lower assist levels, the engagement can feel abrupt compared with a torque-sensor bike that reads pedal force proportionally. On a machine with 126 N·m available, cadence-sensor engagement at PAS 4 and 5 is strong. Manage your assist level intentionally, especially in the first few hours of riding. Torque vs cadence sensor explained →
• 116 lbs is the honest weight. A dual-battery motorbike-style carbon steel platform at this power level weighs 116 lbs by design. This bike belongs in a garage, a shed, a building with elevator access, or the bed of a truck. Three flights of stairs is a daily workout you probably do not want. If your storage situation is an apartment walk-up, the lighter options in the Zeus lineup exist for a reason. If storage is a ground-level garage or outdoor shed — the weight is the price of 1,747 Wh and 2,400W at $2,399 and it is a reasonable trade for the right rider.
• ~57 km/h is motorbike territory — check your provincial law. The GT73’s top speed on throttle-only is up to ~57 km/h (37 mph). In most Canadian provinces, eBike classification caps top assisted speed at 32 km/h; operation above that on public roads and multi-use paths takes the bike outside eBike classification and may require vehicle registration, insurance, and a motorcycle or moped-class licence depending on the province. In practice, many riders use machines like the GT73 on private property, trails, and off-road access routes where eBike speed limits do not apply. Know your specific use case and provincial rules before riding on public roads. Full Canadian eBike law breakdown by province →
• 9–10 hours per battery on the 2A charger. Two batteries at 9–10 hours each means a full charge from empty takes a full overnight from two outlets in parallel. For consecutive riding days, stagger your charging — start both batteries charging immediately after your ride. For day-ride use where you return home with 30–50% remaining on each pack, the charge time is not a practical issue. For back-to-back expedition days, plan around the overnight window.
• Rotor size not specified. The brakes are hydraulic disc front and rear with electronic cutoff; rotor diameter is not published in the official spec sheet. The braking performance is strong for this platform, but we cannot give you a rotor measurement to compare.

Every trade-off above is specific. If none of them apply to your use case, the 1,747 Wh dual battery, 2,400W peak motor, 126 N·m torque, 25″ motorcycle-format wheels, hydraulic suspension, full lighting, and $2,399 price are an unusual combination at this point on the price ladder — how that compares to other machines you may be considering is up to you.

Who Is the GT73 Best For?

• Riders who prioritise stored battery energy at this price — If the 1,747 Wh dual-battery spec is the number that got your attention, it is the headline reason this bike exists in the lineup. Two full batteries at purchase, no upgrade required. For longer day rides, backcountry fire-road access, or any outing where battery anxiety is the constraint you most want to eliminate, the GT73’s dual-battery configuration is the direct answer Riding Times built into this product. Full electric dirt bike guide for Canada (2026) →
• Off-road and trail-access riders who want motorbike-class hardware on a pedal platform — 25″ motorcycle-format wheels, hydraulic double-wishbone suspension, and 2,400W peak motor output on a chassis that includes pedals and a Shimano drivetrain. For private property, hunting camp trails, fire roads, and off-road routes where eBike-classification limits do not apply, the GT73 rides in the territory between conventional eBikes and full motorcycles. (On public roads and bike paths, the eBike-classification limits do apply — see the Honest Take and the law guide before riding there.)
• Winter riders in snow-track kit configuration — Select the Snow Track Kit variant at checkout. The rear-wheel track conversion extends rideable season into deep winter on packed snow surfaces. Combined with 1,747 Wh of dual battery capacity — which is meaningful in cold weather where a single smaller pack loses significant capacity to temperature — the GT73 in Snow Track Kit configuration is a four-season machine for the right Canadian winter conditions. eBike winter riding guide for Canada →
• Riders who want the look of a dirt bike and the practicality of an eBike — The GT73 is the machine that friends ask about. It does not look like an eBike. It reads as a motorbike. For the rider who wants that visual presence — the stance, the tire size, the lighting array — the GT73 sits in the gap between conventional eBikes and full motorcycles at a price that is accessible rather than aspirational. Just remember: at full throttle the GT73’s top speed is outside Canadian eBike classification, so use it accordingly — the visual presence does not change what your provincial law says (see the Honest Take above and the eBike law guide by province).
• Heavier riders within the 330 lb total-payload limit — The published payload spec is 330 lbs and refers to total carried weight (rider plus gear plus any accessories), not rider weight alone. For a heavier rider who has felt under-served by lower-wattage eBikes, the GT73’s combination of motor output, dual-battery range, and 330 lb payload is the spec set that changes the calculation — provided you keep total carried weight under that limit. eBike guide for heavier riders →

Who it’s NOT for: Urban commuters who need lightweight and nimble — at 116 lbs, the GT73 is a terrain machine, not a city bike (explore the Zeus urban eBike collection). Apartment dwellers without elevator access or ground-floor storage — 116 lbs up three flights is not a viable daily routine. Riders who need a torque-sensor pedal assist for a natural, proportional ride feel — the cadence sensor on the GT73 delivers strong output but not the proportional subtlety of a torque sensor (see the Eunorau Fat AWD 3.0 at $2,390 for a torque-sensor option at a similar price). Riders who plan to use this primarily on public bike paths, multi-use trails, or streets where the 57 km/h top speed places it outside eBike classification in their province.

How the GT73 Compares Within the Zeus Dirt Bike Lineup

The three machines in the Zeus dirt-bike collection at this price tier are not a simple ascending power ladder. They are three different platforms with different trade-offs:

Spec	GT54 Pro	GT73 (This Bike)	GT73 Pro
Price	$1,999 CAD	$2,399 CAD	$2,949 CAD
Motor (nominal / peak)	1,500W / 3,000W	1,200W / 2,400W	— / 3,000W
Voltage	60V	48V	60V
Torque	338 N·m	126 N·m	338 N·m
Battery	Single 60V 25Ah (1,500 Wh)	Dual 48V 18.2Ah × 2 (1,747 Wh)	Dual 60V 18Ah × 2
Top Speed	Up to 79 km/h	Up to ~57 km/h (37 mph)	Check listing
Tyres / Wheels	Front 60/100-14, Rear 60/100-12 (mini)	25″ off-road, 70/100-19	25″ off-road
Weight	116 lbs	116 lbs	Check listing
Snow Track Kit option	Yes (GT54 Pro Snow Track Kit)	Yes (GT73 Snow Track Kit)	Check listing
Best For	Higher peak power and torque on a smaller-wheeled platform	Largest battery + full-size 25″ off-road wheels	60V combined with full-size 25″ off-road platform

Choose the GT54 Pro at $1,999 if peak torque (338 N·m), 60V architecture, and a published top speed up to 79 km/h matter more to you than wheel size — the GT54 Pro is a smaller-wheeled platform (front 14″, rear 12″) but the published power and torque numbers are higher than the GT73. Choose the GT73 (this bike) at $2,399 if the priority is the 1,747 Wh dual battery and the full-size 25″ off-road wheel platform at the lowest price the dual-battery / full-wheel combination is offered. Choose the GT73 Pro at $2,949 if you want both: 60V architecture with 338 N·m torque and the full-size 25″ off-road platform with dual battery. For a different riding style on a similar budget, see the Eunorau Fat AWD 3.0 ($2,390) — a torque-sensor AWD fat tire eBike for off-road and winter use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the GT73 legal to ride on public roads and bike paths in Canada?

It depends on the province and the specific road or path. In most Canadian provinces, eBikes are classified as pedal-assist bicycles with a top assisted-speed cap of 32 km/h. The GT73’s published throttle-only top speed of up to ~57 km/h (37 mph) exceeds that cap. Operated at full throttle on public roads and designated bike paths where eBike speed limits apply, the GT73 is outside eBike classification in most provinces — using it that way takes the bike into territory where registration, insurance, and a motorcycle- or moped-class licence may apply, depending on the province. Many riders use machines like the GT73 on private property, hunting and trail access roads, and off-road routes where eBike speed limits do not apply. Read the Canadian eBike law guide by province to understand the rules in your jurisdiction before riding on public infrastructure.

What is the real-world range in Canadian conditions?

The GT73 is rated at 68–130 km on dual battery under manufacturer test conditions. Real-world range is always lower than rated range — how much lower depends on rider weight, throttle use vs PAS, terrain, headwind, temperature, and tire pressure. Higher-throttle riding at speeds approaching the 57 km/h ceiling draws materially more current than steady PAS riding at 25–30 km/h. In Canadian winter, lithium cells lose capacity to cold — store both packs indoors at room temperature before cold-weather rides to keep starting capacity high. The dual-battery architecture means even in cold conditions you have meaningfully more total stored energy than a single-battery machine on the same ride.

How long does it take to charge both batteries?

Each battery charges in 9–10 hours from empty on the included 48V 2A charger. Two chargers are included — one per battery. Running both chargers from separate outlets simultaneously, both batteries charge overnight. If you return from a ride with 40–50% remaining on each pack, overnight charging from partial is well within the window. For consecutive full-day riding, start both chargers immediately after your ride.

Does the GT73 have a torque sensor or a cadence sensor?

Cadence sensor. The motor assist triggers when the cadence sensor detects pedal rotation. The assist level and output are controlled by the PAS mode and level you select. It does not read how hard you are pedalling — only whether you are. On a machine with 126 N·m available at PAS 4 and 5, manage your assist level intentionally, especially in the first few rides. The half-twist throttle gives you direct motor control at any time independent of the PAS system. Full explanation of cadence vs torque sensors →

What does the Snow Track Kit do and do I need it?

The GT73 Snow Track Kit is a winter conversion that replaces the standard rear wheel with a track system designed for snow surfaces. Snow tracks generally provide better flotation and traction on snow than a standard tyre by spreading the contact area over a larger footprint. If you plan to ride through Canadian winter on snow, select the Snow Track Kit variant at checkout. If your winter riding is on plowed or groomed surfaces where a standard tyre still has traction, the base GT73 is sufficient. Call 1-866-938-7580 if you want details on exactly what the kit includes and how it installs before you order.

Is there a review to read before I buy?

Yes. We have published a full written review at Riding Times GT73 Review Canada (2026) → Read it, then call us at 1-866-938-7580 if you have questions. We know these bikes; we can answer in plain language.

What does the warranty cover and for how long?

The GT73 ships with a 1-month Zeus complimentary limited warranty followed by the standard Riding Times manufacturer warranty. Manufacturer warranty terms vary by brand — typically 1–2 years, per our Zeus warranty policy. Zeus handles claim management and communication with the manufacturer on your behalf, including remote diagnostics by phone, email, or video, and shipping coordination including prepaid return labels where applicable. The complimentary Zeus coverage does not include physical repairs or replacement parts — those are handled through the manufacturer warranty. Excluded from coverage: normal wear-and-tear (tires, brake pads, chains, grips, saddles), and damage resulting from misuse, improper maintenance, or unauthorized modifications. Extended warranty plans (1, 2, 3, or 5 years) are available at checkout and add Zeus support coverage beyond the complimentary period. Call 1-866-938-7580 or email milad@zeusebikes.ca for the current Riding Times warranty term on the GT73 before purchase.

Does Zeus offer financing?

Yes. Financing is available at checkout. As a representative example, a $2,399 purchase amortised over 12 months works out to roughly $200/mo at 0% interest — the actual term, monthly amount, and interest rate depend on the lender, the plan you select, and your approval. See our eBike financing guide for Canadians → for the breakdown of payment plans, approval criteria, and how to apply.
