I have two of the H8 bikes. I live up in the mountains in Washington state but I also take them to the beach and everything in between. Whether on the trails or the sand they always get me home. I love to ride them and recommend you get one if you have the means.
I recently got the orange falcon, fed ex delivered the package and it looked like it went through a rough time but luckily the bike was not damaged.
After putting it together I have to say that I'm happy with this bicycle, I'm 5 6 and I decided to go with the bigger one which is a bit high but not to the point where it's hard to get on or stand but I have to keep the seat all the way down.
The speed is good, I can hit 43 mph using my phone gps I weight 185lbs , the range is good too I managed to hit 45 miles just cruising around town mostly on pedal assist 1 and 2 sometimes on 5 when I had no choice but to get on the Street to keep up with traffic
I was amazed at how easily a single motor can climb a steep hill but with two is just a breeze, just make sure to not stop half way or you could have a bit of trouble moving up since it doesn't have a strong start when fully stopped but once it starts moving it's fine.
The suspension is good too with just some tweaking you could make it feel smoother all you have to do is to loosen up the bolts so it's not too stiff and the air shock can actually do its thing.
Yes I think this e bike is worth the price and if they come up with a better bike i will definitely be getting it.
Awesome bike a lot of power better than competitors
I have owned my bike for a couple of years now and I absolutely love it. I get comments and compliments all the time. I've put about 1000 miles on it so far, I live in a very small town so every trip I take is only about a mile. I've modified mine a bit as you can tell from the pics but Its an excellent bike, great company, and Customer service is helpful and actually cares about the customer. Will definitely buy another one in the future!!! Thank you philodo team!
I bought this bike for hunting and scouting game. I have put about 70 miles on it so far and it's a beast. The dual motors are very necessary in the rolling hills and swamps of Mississippi. I have made some additions to it for what I need and for the price I'm extremely happy. There are several FB groups that I'm on where there are lots of people who help each other ideas and issues. I have put it through hell every time I take it out and it's tough as nails.
Front motor no work, new controller provided, long wait for shipping, long search for shop that will work on it, $95 installation fee. The overall Falcon opinion: Display screen useless on sunny days. Love the pretty colors on display screen compared to simple monochrome until I realized the monochrome is viewable in bright sunlight. After controller issues were resolved the bike works as advertised.
I purchased the Falcon after comparing it to many alternatives. The bike seems to be a very well made, powerful bike. I was hoping to ride the bike like I rode bikes in my younger days only with the electric assist. Unfortunately my body isn't cooperating with desire to ride again. Evidently too many surgeries and joint replacements. I purchased the bike during their Memorial Day sale and it did have a 30-day free return policy so I am working with the company to return it . Sure wish I could have been able to use it as desired.
Loving my Falcon so far. I commute 30 mi each way to work on a mixture of rail trail and two-lane highway. This bike conquers hills like they're not even there.
There is not a bike at this price point that even comes close to offering the performance of the Falcon. In fact, it outperforms most other bikes regardless of price.
When I did have a small issue with the bike, their customer service was on top of it. They responded to me within 12 hours and new parts we're delivered to my home within a week.
I cannot recommend Philodo enough!
I've been a proud owner of this monster of a bike for about 4 months now and the experience has been incredible! | ILOVE THIS BIKE! I've also been amazed at the customer service!! The customer support has been nothing short of amazing! Every email I've sent concerning my bike was answered according to a timely manner. Customer support even reimbursed me for some minor repairs concerning my bike which made me super excited. I really can't complain. I definitely would and will recommend Philodo Falcon to any person
THANK YOU PHILODO FALCON!!!!!!
Out of all the dual motor bikes on the road and for sale, philodo is the way to go. I have had nothing but a amazing experience and above and beyond customer service. 10/10 recommend
I chose the Philodo Falcon because I plan on doing some camping and fishing. I needed a bike I could hop on and ride to the fishing spot. It had to go off road and climb hills without a lot of my physical pedaling. I viewed hundreds of YouTube videos from multiple brands. When I checked out the Philodo Falcon, it was the sweet spot. Like they saw me coming. It was a no brainer. I ordered it in camo and arrived in about a week.
When I had the bike assembled, started out on level 0 to see how it felt to pedal, and it took a little effort. Level 1 was a surprise to feel the power grab and go. Went up and down the street at various levels. I could not be more impressed, and pleased with this bike. I looked at many e-bikes for the ability to go uphill and this was it. I am very happy with this e-bike, pleased as can be.
My bike is amazing. Philodo really did a thing with this one not only is the bike fast, but it is very secure for the big tires that it has and the screen the display screen gives you all the detail you need about the bike.
Ive had acouple minor issues that cs has taken care of in a speedy manner.couldnt be any happier with my fakcon and philado
These bikes are incredible, we now have 2 . We pull trailers with dogs , plenty of power up hills !!
Don't wait any longer, buy this bike !!!
I've been enjoying my h7 for 2 & a half years now, and have absolutely zero complaints. This beast/beauty of a bike has been everything i needed in an ebike. From a 13 mile, round trip work commute five days a week, for almost two years, to just loving weekend rides around the city (Atlanta). Besides the inevitable flat tires, this bike has been 100% dependable as I've ridden in multiple weather conditions without fail. It will be hard to separate from such a fantastic bike, but i will be upgrading to the H8 very soon, continuing what i know will an even greater experience. Lastly, be sure to check out Papa Blueshirt on youtube, as this man is literally a living testament to the endurance and longevity of the Philodo name.
1,500 miles and a 'few' updates later. Been a blast!
This bike has gotten me out of the house and riding nearly every day now. I am 6'3, and used to weight 265-270lbs. I would be out of breath doing anything active. Now I ride 20+ miles a day without stopping or breathing hard, and I am down to 245lbs!
This is 1,500 miles of exercise I would have not gotten otherwise. Now onto 2,000 miles! Been a good bike so far. Fun to ride and doesn't feel like exercise, but the results are proving otherwise. I am active, losing weight, and my legs are getting jacked! Just because it's an Ebike, doesn't mean you can't pedal and get exercise out of it.
This is my first Ebike. I saw a lot of horror stories about online ebike purchases gone wrong. Philodo support has been helpful when contacted for information or regarding any issues making everything much less stressful.
These bikes are easily customizable to individual tastes. There is also a very supportive and helpful community on social media to get additional help, share advice, and exchange experiences. I am happy with my purchase and the positive impacts it's having on my health and life!
First impressions of the Philodo Falcon Step-Thru Dual Motor 60V… this thing absolutely rips for the money.
Before my first ride, I installed a set of Alscape high-performance tires. Swapping the rear tire on a dual motor bike was definitely not a quick job Took me about 2½ hours from start to finish to get everything back together correctly.
Once I got it on the road, I was seriously impressed. The power just keeps pulling and pulling all the way to speed. I hit almost 40 MPH on my first ride while still taking it easy because it was getting dark out. The traction is insane with the dual motor, I bet this thing would climb the steepest of hills. (I will test this out asap and get some video).
One thing I really like is the 24” wheels. My last 3 bikes all had 26” tires and felt more bulky and cumbersome. The Falcon feels more nimble and easier to handle.
For comparison, my other bikes are:
• Biktrix Juggernaut 1000W mid-drive
• Heavily modified 1600W Rad Rover
And honestly… the Philodo Falcon outperforms them in terms of raw fun and power.
The only thing that took some getting used to was the soft start from 0-3 MPH. It’s a little lazy off the line, but I’m assuming that’s programed intentionally to help protect the nylon motor gears. Once rolling, it absolutely rips!
Fit and finish are surprisingly good too. You really can’t tell this is a sub-$2000 bike. Honestly, for less than $1600 shipped after tax (plus I found a $20 coupon), the value is crazy.
A bonus for me is the fact that they sell all of the parts to rebuild this bike right on the website….this is huge, and most bike manufacturers do not offer replacement parts that are readily available. you can literally rebuild most components on this bike with parts that are sold on their website.
My ratings:
Engineering/ design features: 6/10 (this is my only real complaint, see the list below, This is advertised as a hunting bike and it is missing a few key features that would really make it shine in this arena)
Brakes 9/10 (Great, stopping power with the hydraulic brakes)
Performance: 9/10 (due to soft start feature, without this, it would be a 10)
Fit & Finish: 9/10 (very good welds and finish)
Components: 8/10 (good construction and hardware, fenders seem a little flimsy)
Value: 10/10 (Best bank for your buck out there in my opinion)
Ride quality 8.5/10 (Adjusting the suspension is a plus)
Seating position/comfort 8/10
Tires: 4/10 The rubber that comes on them from the factory seems pretty flimsy, and some buyers complained about flats, (the brand is Chao Yang) so switching to a quality brand would make a huge difference.
Assembly Instructions: 8/10 (I put a few of these together, so it wasn’t that challenging, but it is nice to have a full color book in English, The print is a little small)
Paint 9/10 (more options would make it a 10)
Only real complaints so far:
No front rack mounting bracket. Pretty shortsighted considering a lot of us use these bikes for hauling gear or hunting. On my previous bikes I mounted my compound bow on the front rack area, so now I’ll have to figure out some sort of workaround.
It has a key, I have no idea why the designer thought it was a good idea to have a key and an ignition. It Is in a weird spot on the handlebars and looks like it would be broken easily or lost.
Seating position, Not a dealbreaker, but the handlebars are pretty low and way out front). I understand why a bunch of people who own this bike changed out the handlebars.
Overall though… extremely impressed. Great budget dual motor e-bike with way more performance than the price tag suggests. This bike definitely punches above its weight in the E bike arena

Also added brake handle grip as well
Reg handle bar grip
Let me start by saying I just had the bike for 2 days . So far this bike has been amazing. I don't know how fast this bike goes but the torque is so powerful. This bike is super fast. I'll come back and do a review in 6 months.
I had some unforeseen issues and could no longer ride my last bike. I reached out to customer service to see if they could help me out, and they went out of their way to ensure I was taken care of. Mind you, Philodo was not liable for the issue I had, and yet they still did what they could to assist me so I could get back out on the road
Great customer service. You’ve won a lifelong customer
Wow! This bike is everything I expected plus!
Powerful, Durable, Battery long lasting, Great looking Bike.
The Dual motors are incredible. The front torque takes getting used to because it’s so powerful.
In one of your video reviews someone compared the bike to a “Mustang” car. I would agree.
Off road is sooo much fun. Soft sand is a blast powering through. I live in the Pine Barrens of central and southern New Jersey and I ride through trails for miles and hours with no concern of losing battery strength. The Large 60volt battery does the job. Great Job on designing this bike. I wouldn’t change a thing.
The power and versatility of this bike is amazing. I hoped for power enough to traverse the local trails but this bike proved better than I expected. I start on the streets, through horse trails, then into the off road areas where there is gravel, hills, fire roads and sand. My Forester punishes them all.
This being my first ebike (had ridden all kinds of standard bikes very often for many years), I researched ebikes for over a month and chose this based on the specs and other reviews and I couldn't be happier.
The Forester keeps me active when its windy, cold, blazing hot or when I'm too tired after a hard day's work to hit the gym. The pedal assist leaves me no excuses to not to hit the trails.
I recommend this to all my friends and coworkers. This bike is a great investment in quality of life and longevity.
This is my first e bike and all I can say is WOW!. Purchased it for traveling between hunting stands and for just general fun. Shipping was extremely fast and FedEx treated it like a Pinata but the bike was professionally packaged and no damage occurred. The quality of the bike is superb . No missing parts or cross threaded inserts. Did I say it's fast?! Way more than I need. You won't be disappointed with this purchase.
This is fun for city street commuting. Even where I go, it's a attention getter. I need the another one. I prefer to try the Step Thru too. Can't afford it right now. But back to this Philodo Falcon 60v. I ride here in St. Louis, MO. It's a big steep hill we sled ride down during the winter snow time. Art Hill in Forest Park. It's a about two football fields long. I started a maybe 20 yards from the bottom PAS 1 gear 2 already. Took the hill like a fast turtle. When heard the motor stain. I clicked dual motors, PAS 4 went upto 24 mph. Oh I'm 284.lbs maybe less since I 17-20 miles rides round trip.
Bought mostly to use in the woods hunting seasons, but riding in our rural town and testing things. I added a back basket to carry a back pack. I put the mirrors on and they aren't going to be any problem in the woods because they are flexible and great to have when riding around town. I'm amazed how easy and smooth the shifting is. I made a bracket out of aluminum to carry a gun scabbard. One thing I'd like to see is a blinker option for riding on city streets. I'd compare this brand to a Rambo top of the line, which is priced about triple of this bike!
