Bakcou Scout E-Bike – Full Suspension Fat Tire Electric Bike
Not every adventure calls for the biggest, heaviest e-bike on the market. That’s why Bakcou built the Scout—a trail-ready, full-suspension fat tire e-bike designed for riders who want power, agility, and smooth handling without the extra bulk. Whether you’re weaving through tight switchbacks, scouting for whitetail, or heading deep into the backcountry, the Scout keeps you moving with precision and control.
At its core, the Bafang Ultra M620 mid-drive motor powers the Scout with 750W/1000W continuous output and a 1500W peak boost—delivering 160Nm of torque to tackle steep climbs and rugged terrain. Paired with a smart torque sensor, this motor seamlessly adjusts power based on your pedaling, giving you a natural, responsive ride no matter where the trail takes you.
Performance Meets Versatility
Bakcou took the best features from the top-selling models to create the Scout—a crossover built for hunters, trail riders, and off-road explorers who need both power and finesse.
- Full-Suspension Build – Smooths out rocky trails and rough descents with 140mm AIR Front Fork and Rockshox Monarch Rear Suspension.
- Fat Tire Stability – Maxxis Minion 26” x 4.0 tires give you traction on sand, mud, gravel, and snow.
- Lightweight & Durable – The 6061 aluminum alloy frame keeps the bike strong without adding unnecessary weight.
- Extended Range – The 48V 21Ah battery delivers up to 50+ miles per charge, so you can ride longer and explore farther.
Trail-Tested Power & Control
It’s not just about raw power—the Scout is built for precision handling.
- Sram NX 11-Speed Drivetrain (40t Front, 11-42t Rear) provides smooth shifting for climbing steep inclines and flying downhill.
- Tektro HD E750 Quad Piston Hydraulic Brakes with 203mm rotors give you reliable stopping power when the trail gets technical.
- Ergonomic Wide Handlebars (740mm) offer better control and stability for technical riding.
Built to Fit Your Ride
The Scout is available in two frame sizes,
- Medium (17” frame) – Ideal for riders 5'7" to 5'10".
- Large (19” frame) – Best for riders 5'10" and up.
- Standover Height: 28.5” – Easy to mount, providing a comfortable and stable ride.
Where the Scout Excels
- Trail Riding & Overlanding – Lightweight and agile for rugged backcountry trails.
- Hunting & Scouting – Quiet motor lets you sneak into the woods undetected.
- Camping & Off-Grid Exploration – Extended range for multi-day adventures.
Your Ultimate Backcountry E-Bike
Whether you're navigating tight switchbacks, hauling gear, or covering ground fast, the Bakcou Scout is built for the ride. Lightweight, powerful, and packed with trail-ready features, it’s the e-bike that delivers performance without compromise.

Your Guide to Decipher eBike Distance Claims
"How far can this eBike go on a single charge?" This is one of the most common questions we hear at Bakcou. We get it. It can be very confusing when you look at all the distance claims by the different eBike companies out there. For example, one eBike ad will show 80 miles range and another company, with what looks to be a similar eBike, will say 50 miles. Well, who is telling the truth? To be honest, they both are kinda telling the truth. Still confused? Let's see if we can help.
When it comes to eBike battery range, there are a lot of variables at play. Here are the top factors that impact distance:- Battery Size – In simple terms, think of your battery as a gas tank. The bigger the gas tank, the farther you can go. So when considering which eBike to go with, make sure you are looking at the battery size. We explain this in more detail below under Crunching the Numbers.
- Riding Assistance – This is one of the biggest factors that impacts how far you can go. There are two ways the motor on an eBike can help you. The first is pedal assistance. If you are riding most of the way with a high level of assistance, the more battery juice you are consuming. Want to go farther, pump those legs a bit more and use a lower pedal assistance. Second is throttle assistance. Sure it's great to use the throttle when the legs are getting tired or you hit a steep incline. Just remember that the more throttle you use, the less distance you will get out of your battery.
- Weight – We won't ask about your weight here but keep in mind that the heavier you are and the more equipment you have on you, the more your eBike motor has to work, which will decrease your potential range.
- Terrain – Are you riding on flat hills, or tackling tough mountain roads with steep inclines? The tougher the terrain, the more battery power is needed, which will impact the distance.
- Weather & Temperature – Maybe the last thing you would consider, but know that colder temperatures can decrease your battery range by up to 15%. Good thing Bakcou offers battery jackets to keep things cozy and increase your cold weather range.
- Motor Type – Mid-drive motors might offer better range than hub drives because they gel well with gears.
- Other factors to consider – motor size, tire pressure, battery cell quality, how often you start & stop
Crunching the Numbers
It's not just about a powerful motor. It's the battery capacity that tells you how far you can go. eBike battery capacity is measured in Watt-hours, which is calculated by two things: voltage and amp-hours. Let's look at how those two things combine for different results.
Example 1
- eBike A: 24V - 20Ah = 480Wh
- eBike B: 48V - 10Ah = 480Wh
They both have the same Watt-hours and will perform similarly. However, eBike B with the higher voltage has more zip and climbs better, but at the same time, uses more energy.
Example 2
- eBike A: 24V - 20Ah = 480Wh
- eBike B; 24V - 6Ah = 144Wh
Both have the same voltage, but eBike A has a higher amp-hour capacity, which equates to a larger gas tank and that means more distance.
If you are looking for an eBike that's speedy, climbs like a champ, and goes the distance, then you'll need a battery with a high-voltage and high amp-hours. Featuring the biggest single battery on the market at 48V - 25ah, Bakcou eBikes will get you where you want to go and, more importantly, get you back.

Bakcou e-bike faqs

Can I use a Bakcou e-bike for whitetail property management?
Yes, many landowners use Bakcou e-bikes to scout land, check food plots, and reduce human disturbance in deer habitat. E-bikes allow for silent access, minimizing scent trails while making it easy to haul equipment, tools, and feed.
What’s the difference between a mid-drive motor and a hub-drive motor?
Mid-drive motors, like the Bafang Ultra, provide better torque and efficiency by using the bike’s gears. They are ideal for steep terrain and hauling heavy loads. Hub-drive motors are simpler and more affordable but lack the power needed for extreme off-road conditions.
How much weight can a Bakcou e-bike carry?
Bakcou e-bikes have a frame weight capacity of 300-400 lbs, depending on the model. Rear racks and trailers allow for additional hauling capacity, making them great for carrying tools, game, or supplies.
Are Bakcou e-bikes street legal?
Most Bakcou e-bikes fall under Class 2 or Class 3 e-bike regulations, meaning they are legal on most public roads and bike paths. Class 2 models have a throttle and a top speed of 20 mph, while Class 3 models have pedal assist up to 28 mph. Always check local laws regarding e-bike use.
What accessories should I get for my Bakcou e-bike?
Accessories depend on your use case:
- Hunting: Cargo trailer, rifle/bow rack, handlebar mitts
- Overlanding/Camping: Solar charger, rear rack, waterproof bags
- Whitetail Property Management: Tool rack, feed hauler, fat tire fenders
- General Trail Riding: Extra battery, upgraded seat, lighting kit
