Their best-selling electric bike, the Bakcou Mule is an electric fat bike equipped with an ultra-powerful mid-drive motor designed to take you and some gear into backcoutry areas discreetly and efficiently.
Bakcou loaned Electric Bike Report a Mule to test ride during the Big Gear Show in Park City, Utah this August. We were limited by time and little access to e-bike friendly off-road terrain, but I was thoroughly impressed with the Mule’s super powerful motor, stable handling and thoughtful component package.
Hints at Bakcou’s hunting roots are never too tough to find.
Bakcou is one of several e-bike companies with roots in hunting. Though they’re building on those roots and are now designing their bikes as sort of an all-terrain electric utility vehicle, the first Bakcou bikes were built to replace the noisy and foul-smelling ATVs or side-by-sides hunters previously used to access backcountry locations. Those motorize vehicles disturbed the wildlife, so hunting e-bikes became a great substitute. Now, Bakcou’s e-bikes are built for anyone trying to access difficult to reach terrain.
