YVY C22

YVY C22 — Built for the Trail, Not the Bike Lane

Most fat tire eBikes are built for comfort on gravel paths with the occasional dirt detour. The YVY C22 is built the other way around. Starting with a full-suspension platform — front fork and rear shock absorber working together — and putting 20″×4.0″ fat tires underneath it, the C22 eats rough terrain that would rattle a standard eBike apart. A high-speed brushless rear hub motor paired with a 48V 25Ah battery (1,200 Wh) gives you enough range and grunt to spend a real day on the trail without rationing assist levels and watching the battery bar.

What separates the C22 from cheaper full-suspension fat tire bikes is what it ships with. A Bluetooth-connected meter pairs with your phone so you can monitor speed, battery, and trip data on the go. An integrated alarm device and 4-button remote key fob means the bike protects itself when you park it at the trailhead. A USB charging port keeps your devices running on longer rides. Integrated front and rear lighting, a horn, kickstand, mirror, mudguard, and cycling bag round out a package that is genuinely trail-ready from the first ride.

The C22 holds UL 2849, CE, and UKCA certifications — safety credentials that separate it from uncertified alternatives at the same price point. Steel frame. Seven-speed drivetrain. Front and rear hydraulic disc brakes for confident stopping on descents. Three drive modes: pure electric, pedal assist, or pedal only. A 35° gradeability rating that handles real Canadian hill terrain. Free Canada-wide shipping.

Why the YVY C22 Hits a Spot Cheaper Fat Tire Bikes Miss

The budget fat tire eBike market is full of hardtails with cadence sensors, single-wall rims, and a modest LED strip that passes for lighting. They get you on the trail. They do not keep you comfortable, confident, or connected once you are there.

The YVY C22 is built differently, and the differences show up where they count:

• Full suspension, not a hardtail. A front suspension fork and rear shock absorber work together so both wheels track the ground independently. On roots, rocks, frost heaves, and rutted dirt, full suspension is not a luxury — it is the difference between a ride that tires you out and one you want to do again. The C22 delivers genuine dual-suspension comfort at a price point where most alternatives are still hardtails.
• 1,200 Wh of battery. The 48V 25Ah pack is a meaningfully larger battery than the 20Ah (960 Wh) version common at this price class. That extra 240 Wh is real range — roughly 15–25 extra kilometres depending on terrain and assist level. For trail riding where recharging mid-ride is not an option, the bigger battery is worth having.
• Alarm + Bluetooth included, not optioned. Most eBikes in this category ship bare. The C22 includes a Bluetooth-connected meter, a built-in alarm, and a 4-button remote key fob as standard. Leave the bike at the trailhead. The alarm is watching it.
• Hydraulic disc brakes, front and rear. On a bike with 70–80 Nm of torque and fat tires that can carry you faster than expected on a descent, hydraulic stopping power is not a nice-to-have. Mechanical disc brakes degrade in wet and muddy conditions. Hydraulic brakes maintain consistent feel regardless of conditions.
• Three certifications, not zero. UL 2849 (electrical system safety), CE, and UKCA certifications mean the C22 has been independently evaluated. Uncertified eBikes at the same price exist — and uncertified batteries that fail do so at the worst possible moments.

Key Features

• High-Speed Brushless Rear Hub Motor — 70–80 Nm Torque — A high-speed brushless hub motor delivers direct, responsive power to the rear wheel without the drivetrain losses of a chain-driven system. At 70–80 Nm, the C22 has enough torque to climb 35° grades and accelerate confidently on dirt, gravel, and hardpack terrain. Throttle-only operation means you can ride without pedalling when the terrain demands it. Motor power & Canadian law explained →
• 48V 25Ah Removable Lithium-Ion Battery — 1,200 Wh — The C22's 1,200 Wh battery is larger than the standard 20Ah Q20 platform configuration — a deliberate upgrade that extends range and reduces the anxiety of running out of power mid-trail. The battery is removable for indoor charging and secure storage. Fast charge: 5–6 hours from empty. Long-range eBike guide →
• Full Suspension — Front Fork + Rear Shock Absorber — Both wheels are independently suspended. The front suspension fork handles impacts at the bar; the rear shock absorber keeps the back wheel tracking through rough ground and reduces the jarring that fatigues riders on hardtail bikes. This is the setup for genuine off-road comfort — not a hardtail with a cushy saddle pretending to be full suspension. Fat tire eBike guide →
• 20″×4.0″ Fat Tires — A 4.0″ fat tire at 20″ diameter is the proven off-road choice: wide enough to float over sand, snow, and loose ground; big enough in volume to absorb vibration on roots and gravel. The contact patch is massive, which means grip even when traction conditions change quickly. Run lower pressures on soft surfaces, higher pressures on hard ground for a more efficient ride.
• Front & Rear Hydraulic Disc Brakes — Hydraulic brakes provide consistent, modulated stopping power in all conditions — wet, muddy, dusty, or cold. Self-adjusting as pads wear, with no cable stretch to re-tension. On a bike running fat tires and full throttle downhill, hydraulic stopping force is the right specification. Heavy rider guide →
• 7-Speed Drivetrain — Seven-speed gearing lets you manage cadence across varying grades — gear up for the flat, gear down for the climb. Combined with throttle-only capability, the C22 gives you a full range of riding styles from pure pedal to full electric across varied terrain.
• Bluetooth Meter + Mobile App — The Bluetooth meter connects to your smartphone to display real-time speed, battery state, assist level, and trip metrics. App integration also allows you to arm and disarm the alarm remotely, reducing the need for the key fob on shorter stops.
• Alarm Device + 4-Button Remote Control Key — A built-in alarm activates the horn when triggered. The 4-button key fob handles Defence mode (horn alarm on movement), Release (disarm), Find Car (five-horn locator pulse), and Start (power lock). Leave the C22 unattended knowing it is guarding itself.
• USB Charging Port — A USB port integrated into the display unit keeps phones, GPS units, and lights charged on extended rides. One less thing to think about on a long day out.
• Integrated Headlight & Taillight — Front and rear lighting powered directly from the main battery. Visible in dawn, dusk, and low-light trail conditions. Controlled from the handlebar.
• Three Drive Modes — Pure electric (throttle only), pedal assist (motor amplifies pedal effort), and pedal only (no motor). Use the mode that matches the terrain and the energy you want to spend.
• Steel Frame — 35° Gradeability — A steel frame absorbs vibration better than aluminium at the same wall thickness, adding to the C22's trail-comfort story. The 35° gradeability rating is verified by the manufacturer and reflects the motor and suspension platform's real capability on steep grades.
• UL 2849, CE & UKCA Certified — Three independent certifications covering electrical system safety. This is the standard Zeus applies to every bike we carry: certified first, or not on the site.

Optional paid Zeus extended-protection plans (1, 2, 3, or 5 years) are also available. Standard wear items — tyres, brake pads, chain, grips, and saddle — and damage from misuse, improper maintenance, or unauthorised modification are not covered under any warranty.

What You Should Know Before Buying (Honest Take)

• This is not a street-legal eBike in Canada. The C22 reaches approximately 53 km/h, which puts it in motor vehicle territory under provincial law across Canada. It is designed and sold for off-road, private property, and closed-course use. If you need a legal PAB for commuting on roads and shared paths, this is the wrong bike — call us at 1-866-938-7580 and we will find you the right one. Canadian eBike law guide →
• Sensor type is not published by the manufacturer. The Alibaba listing specifies three drive modes but does not state whether the pedal assist system uses a torque sensor (proportional feel) or a cadence sensor (on/off feel). We will not guess. If sensor type is a priority for your riding style, call 1-866-938-7580 before you order and we will confirm the current C22 configuration. Pedal assist vs. throttle explained →
• Bike weight is not separately published for the 25Ah variant. The manufacturer publishes a 45 kg shipping weight for the fully packaged C22. Actual bike weight for the Q20 25Ah platform is not separately confirmed by the manufacturer in the available documentation. Expect a bike in the 40–45 kg range — consistent with full-suspension fat tire bikes at this power level. Call 1-866-938-7580 to confirm the current specification before ordering if weight is critical to your setup.
• Suspension travel distance is not published. The listing confirms full suspension with front fork and rear shock absorber but does not specify travel distance in millimetres. This is comfort-oriented trail suspension, not long-travel enduro hardware. For aggressive technical descending on large obstacles, a longer-travel trail platform is the right tool.
• Steel frame, not aluminium. Steel is heavier than aluminium but absorbs vibration well and is easy to repair. For a trail-oriented off-road bike, the vibration damping is a real benefit. For an apartment with stairs or a vehicle rack with a tight weight limit, the heavier frame is a factor to consider.
• 70–80 Nm is capable on grades up to 35°, but not a mid-drive climber. Hub motors at this torque level handle demanding real-world terrain confidently. For sustained technical climbs under heavy load, a mid-drive motor that drives through the gears extracts more torque at low cadence. Know what you are riding before you choose. Motor power guide for Canadian riders →
• Range is affected by temperature and riding style. The 60–70 km PAS figure is a best-case manufacturer estimate. Cold temperatures reduce lithium capacity — plan for 20% less at 0°C and 30–35% less at −10°C. Heavy throttle use, steep grades, and heavier riders will reduce range further. The 1,200 Wh battery provides more headroom than the standard 960 Wh 20Ah variant, which is a meaningful practical advantage.

How the YVY C22 Compares

Here is how the C22 sits alongside the rest of Zeus's fat tire and moto-style lineup — same category, different priorities:

Who the YVY C22 Is For

• Riders who want a genuine full-suspension fat tire off-roader, not a comfort cruiser with occasional dirt capability
• Trail riders who park at remote trailheads and want an integrated alarm protecting their investment
• Riders who want a larger 1,200 Wh battery for extended sessions without range anxiety
• Anyone who wants Bluetooth connectivity and real-time phone monitoring on their ride
• Riders prioritising certified safety (UL 2849, CE, UKCA) at a competitive price point

Who the YVY C22 Is NOT For

• Commuters who need a street-legal eBike — the C22 is a motor vehicle under Canadian provincial law. It is not for public road commuting. Browse our street-legal urban eBikes →
• Riders who need an aluminium frame — the C22 uses a steel frame, which is heavier than aluminium. If low weight for carrying up stairs or onto transit is a priority, see our folding eBikes →
• Technical enduro descenders — suspension travel is not specified and the platform is trail-comfort oriented. For aggressive technical descending on big terrain, a long-travel trail bike is the right tool.
• Winter road riders — the GT73 with its optional Snow Track Kit is the Zeus model purpose-built for riding in snow conditions on private property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the YVY C22 street-legal in Canada?

No. At approximately 53 km/h top speed, the C22 exceeds the Power-Assisted Bicycle (PAB) speed limit in all Canadian provinces (typically 32 km/h assisted). It is classified as a motor vehicle and designed for off-road, private property, and closed-course recreational use. Registration, insurance, and a driver's licence are required for public road use in most provinces. Call 1-866-938-7580 if you need a street-legal alternative. Read the Canadian eBike law guide →

What does the Bluetooth meter do?

It pairs with your smartphone via Bluetooth to display real-time speed, battery level, assist level, and trip data. It also integrates with the alarm system so you can arm and disarm it remotely from the app in addition to using the physical key fob.

How does the alarm system work?

The C22 includes a built-in alarm device and a 4-button remote key fob. Defence mode arms the alarm (horn triggers on disturbance). Release disarms it. Find Car sounds the horn five times to locate the bike. Start key locks or releases the power. The alarm also pairs with the Bluetooth app for remote control from your phone.

What is the realistic range in Canada?

The manufacturer states 40–50 km pure electric and 60–70 km pedal assist in ideal conditions. Real-world Canadian range will be lower in cold weather (plan for 20% reduction at 0°C, 30–35% at −10°C), on hilly terrain, or with heavy throttle use. The 1,200 Wh battery provides more buffer than the standard 960 Wh configuration on comparable bikes. Long-range eBike guide →

Can it handle Canadian winters?

The 20″×4.0″ fat tires handle hardpack snow and mixed winter trail conditions well. Battery performance will drop in cold temperatures — store the battery indoors when not in use and expect reduced range below 0°C. For dedicated snow riding with a track kit, the GT73 Electric Motorbike → is the Zeus model with an optional Snow Track Kit.

What warranty does the YVY C22 come with?

A 1-month Zeus complimentary limited warranty plus the YVY manufacturer warranty — call 1-866-938-7580 or see our warranty page for current manufacturer terms. Paid Zeus extended-protection plans (1, 2, 3, or 5 years) are available. Wear items and misuse damage are excluded.

How do I finance the YVY C22?

Klarna Pay-in-4, Shop Pay Instalments, and PayPlan by RBC monthly financing are all available at checkout. Full eBike financing guide for Canada →
