The RANDRIDE YG90 is a dual suspension electric mountain bike for riders who mix commuting with towpaths, bridleways and forest roads. Its main draw is a 48 V 17 Ah battery tucked inside the frame, larger by amp hours than most bikes around it, paired with hydraulic brakes and an adjustable rear shock.

In its favour
- The 48 V 17 Ah battery is the largest by amp hours here, quoted at 70 to 90 km with assist.
- Dual suspension with an adjustable shock and hydraulic disc brakes are listed.
- The maker states the power is limited to 250 W and speed to 25 km/h by default.
Good to know
- The listing mentions an all-electric mode; check how it is set up for UK road use.
- Motor torque and the battery watt hour figure are not stated.
Our take
Battery and range
RANDRIDE describes the 48 V 17 Ah pack as fully integrated, waterproof and dustproof. It quotes 70 to 90 km with electric assist and 45 to 55 km in all-electric mode. The spec table expresses capacity as 17,000 mAh, and no watt hour figure is printed.
The listing does not say whether the battery can be removed for charging. If you live in a flat and park outside, check that before buying.
Motor and legal limits
The motor is a 48 V brushless hub unit. RANDRIDE states that the default settings limit power to 250 W and speed to 25 km/h, the UK and EU pedelec limits. Torque is not given.
Because an all-electric mode is described, make sure the bike is configured for pedal assist only when you ride on public roads.
Suspension, brakes and gears
Front and rear suspension are both listed, with an adjustable rear shock. Travel figures are not stated, so it is hard to say how rough a trail it will handle. Hydraulic disc brakes are named in the title, and the 21-speed drivetrain uses front and rear derailleurs.
The colour LCD carries an IP54 rating and shows riding data alongside the gear selection. The listed box contents include a charger, a helmet, saddle bags and tools. Tyres are 2.4 inches wide on 27.5 inch aluminium rims, and the listed weight is 26 kg with a 120 kg maximum load.
Where it fits
Compared with the SAMEBIKE LO26-II, the YG90 is not a folder but has larger wheels and a bigger battery by amp hours, while the SAMEBIKE quotes 75 Nm of torque. The Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 HPC Race 800 is a far more serious trail machine with a carbon frame and an 800 Wh battery, and it is lighter too.
Verdict
The YG90 suits riders up to 120 kg who want full suspension and long range for mixed terrain without moving to a premium brand. If you need to fold the bike into a car, the SAMEBIKE LO26-II fits that job, and for proper technical trails the Cube Stereo Hybrid One44 HPC Race 800 is in another league.
