Made in the USA Performance
Revolution
2024 Revolution
The Revolution is a high performance, downhill electric bike ready for anything you throw at it! As with our whole Revolution line, this bike has been designed, engineered, hand welded, and assembled in the USA! With high end components and robust electric system, this bike sets itself miles apart from the competition!
A Dream Is Turned Into Reality
The HPC Revolution is our premier product here at Hi-Power Cycles. What you see here is a product that has been over four years and five prototypes in the making. No costs were spared in making the ultimate Freeride/DH electric bike on the market.
The Revolution is hand welded and 100% built here in the United States. It is designed to be the fastest, most nimble, lightest weight and most powerful downhill electric bike available anywhere. It all started with a handbuilt 6061-T6 Aluminum frame that is hand welded one at a time by a highly esteemed industry professional with over 30 years of TIG welding experience. Our group of engineers for this project are experts in bicycle and moto geometry, as well as suspension performance. This amount of R&D, lab and field testing, and suspension tuning puts the Revolution head and shoulders above its competition in terms of overall quality, electric system performance, and ride quality.

Electric Technology
The Revolution uses the highest quality and best performing electric system in the industry. Our goal in the design was to maximize power to weight ratio for this platform to offer the most pleasurable riding experience. The result is a seamless blend of power, performance and precision that pairs perfectly to the rider in any situation!
Powerful DC Brushless Hub Motor
The 5,000W (Standard) DC hub motor is both silent and maintenance free. With a proven track record and incredibly robust internals, this motor will keep turning as long as you own your Revolution. Featuring upgraded upgraded Japanese NSK bearings (the only moving parts on the motor), silver plated wires with gold plated connectors and updated motor laminations, we built this motor to be the most powerful and reliable system in a lightweight package. Passive air cooling not only allow the motor to stay cool longer but coupled with internal anti-corrosion coating, this motor will perform well in any environment.
With nearly 6.5 horsepower (hp) output and instant torque in off road mode, the Revolution is a thrilling ride! You can upgrade to the 6,000W motor for nearly 8 hp in off road mode that will give the rider even more speed, torque, and power!
Made in USA Battery System
Any electric bike is only as good as its battery. What cells that are used (making sure they are authentic and not counterfeit like many imported packs), the assembly process, the materials used in the battery production, what connectors are used, and what battery management system is used is imperative to getting the proper performance and safety from your e-bike.
Our battery systems use only the finest authentic cells that are triple checked for consistency and performance before they are assembled. Our in house assembly process allows us to be in total control of the quality and make the most reliable and highest performing battery systems possible. All battery packs feature intelligent Battery Management systems and smart chargers to keep the battery performing at its optimal level, charge after charge. With up to 100 miles of range, only thing you need to worry about is where will go next!
Advanced Sine Wave Control System
Featuring the newest in Sine Wave technology, our control system is both powerful and quiet. As the "brains" of the bike, the controller is constantly processing hundreds of data packets per second to seamlessly control your riding experience.
The new control system offers 10% more starting torque and higher efficiency throughout the power-band. Sine Wave technology smooths out throttle responsiveness and power delivery making the Revolution much easier to ride in both the city and off-road. Most importantly, it now makes the Revolution almost completely silent! Each model is custom programmed in house on both our dynamometer and with a VBOX to measure real world performance which ensures your bike will perform at its peak level when you receive it!
Intelligent Display
What good is all this cutting edge technology without being able to know what is going on? Our intelligent display is able to show battery level, battery voltage, battery used, speed, distance, time, average speed, top speed, power output, and amp output. This will also keep track of lifetime battery cycles, efficiency, and distance. By plugging directly into our control system, this intelligent display is able to control parameters including speed limit and amp limit to not only obey local laws but also to increase efficiency.
Component Technology
Refined Frame Geometry
Through several iterations and hundreds of hours of testing, our team of engineers designed a bike that will perform as well as it looks! We keep ourselves aligned with cutting edge industry standards for suspension design, bike geometry, and component standards to make sure our frames will be comfortable and perform to our exacting specifications. The frame is the most important aspect of your bikes handling and feel so this is not an aspect to overlook since even the smallest degree change can have a huge impact!
Rock Shox DH Suspension
Featuring the coveted Rock Shox Boxxer RC 8" travel dual crown fork and the Rock Shox Vivid R2C coil rear shock, the Revolution rides as well as it looks. With 9.5" of progressive rate frame travel, you will feel like you are riding on cloud!
Schlumpf High Speed Drive
A bike this fast needs a way to be peddled. The German made Schlumpf High Speed turns the 34T chainring into a massive 85T equivalent with the click of a button. At speed, you will feel like superman pedaling your Revolution!
Magura MT5e Quad Piston Brakes
How to slow down from warp speed? The MT5e is the answer. Relying on experience from motorcycles, Magura made some of the most powerful quad piston brakes on the market! The are light, reliable, and feel fantastic! The integrated cutoff will cut motor power as soon as it is activated.
Kenda Neval 2.7" Tires
All that power needs a way to move you on any surface. Enter the Kenda Nevegal 26 x 2.7" tires. This is the ultimate mountain tire featuring dual casing for sidewall stiffness, cornering and protection. Its tall knobs are designed to penetrate and hold Revolution steady on loose or uneven terrain
SRAM GX 10S Transmission
Leveraging the legendary history of SRAM shifting, the GX speed rear derailleur provides incredible shifting speed and precision. X-ACTUATION™ technology eliminates slop and shifting variation. ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH™ technology delivers maximum drivetrain stability—even through the most punishing terrain.
Hand-Built Wheels
A fast e-bike requires the most robust wheelset for performance and safety. All of our wheel builds start by cutting each individual Phil Wood spoke in house and then hand lacing the wheel to our custom 3d drilled rims. By using the highest quality spokes, nipples, hubs, and rims, we ensure the best wheel you can get!
