Jansno US: Which Model Should You Buy?
5 active Jansno models compared, from £799 to £1,099.
Top picks
Best overall
Jansno X80 Pro
£1,099 about $1,486
The only Jansno with hydraulic disc brakes, which matters more here than anywhere else on the site: this is a 45 kg bike that four of its five siblings ask you to stop with cable-pulled mechanical discs. It also carries the largest battery in the range at 1,776 Wh across two removable packs, on dual suspension, for a stated 110 km.
Drawback: Army green is the only colour, the sensor is PAS cadence rather than torque, and Jansno publish no continuous motor rating for it — only a 1000W peak figure — so we cannot tell you where it sits against the 250W EAPC limit.
Best value
Jansno X90
£799 about $1,080
£799 buys 1,200 Wh. Nothing else on this site comes close on battery per pound, and the X90 is also the only Jansno whose published figures — 250W rated, 25 km/h — sit inside the EAPC ceiling rather than well outside it. The 16in wheels make it the one model here that will fit in a car boot end-on.
Drawback: Mechanical discs, front suspension only, and the lowest load rating in the range at 100 kg. It is sold in green or orange, so there is no neutral colourway to pick — we picture the green.
Best for being seen
Jansno X50
£829 about $1,121
The only Jansno with turn signals and a tail light built in, and the only one offered in a plain graphite grey. It is also the one model where you choose the motor: £829 for the 250W, £859 for the 750W.
Drawback: 45 kg, mechanical discs, and the 750W option puts it clearly outside the EAPC power limit. Jansno list a torque sensor on its page, but the identical wording proved to mean cadence on three other models, so treat it as unconfirmed.

Lightest, and the most useful away from a socket
Jansno X80 £899
At 39 kg it is the lightest bike Jansno sell, on the same dual-suspension frame as the X80 Pro, and it carries a portable output port — the battery will run other kit, which no other bike on this site does.
Drawback: The 45 km stated range is the shortest in the range, less than half the X80 Pro's, and the brakes are mechanical. Army green only.
Jansno vs Jansno: which pair should you actually be choosing between?
Jansno X80 vs Jansno X80 Pro
Same frame, same dual suspension, same cadence sensor, same 120 kg load rating, £200 apart — and the £200 changes the bike. The X80 has one 816 Wh battery, mechanical discs and a stated 45 km. The X80 Pro adds a second pack for 1,776 Wh, swaps in hydraulic discs and an LCD, and states 110 km. You are paying £200 to more than double the range and to gain the brakes a 45 kg bike wants. The X80 keeps two things back: it is 6 kg lighter, and it has the output port that runs other kit. Unless every ride is short, or that port is the point, the Pro.

Thirty pounds apart and barely the same kind of bike. The X90 is the 16in compact: 1,200 Wh, front suspension, 40 kg, a 100 kg load limit, and the only Jansno published at 250W and 25 km/h. The X50 is a full-size 20in with 816 Wh, turn signals, a 150 kg load rating, 45 kg, and a choice of 250W or 750W. Pick the X90 for battery, a small footprint and the only figures in the range that sit inside the legal ceiling. Pick the X50 for a normal-sized wheel, lights you do not have to add, and the only neutral grey Jansno offer.
See the full Jansno X90 vs Jansno X50 head-to-head →Jansno X70 vs Jansno X80 Pro
The two big-battery Jansnos, £100 apart. The X70 is the Super73-shaped one: 1,632 Wh, a published 750W, gray or beige, and the longest stated range here at 120 km on assist. The X80 Pro edges the battery at 1,776 Wh and brings hydraulic discs and dual suspension the X70 does not have. The X70 was out of stock at our last check and stops on mechanical discs. Unless you want that shape or that grey specifically, the X80 Pro is the better bike of the two.

Jansno sells 5 current UK models spanning £799 to £1,099, through uk.jansno.com. This page compares every current model against every other so you can work out which one, if any, is actually the right buy — not just which one is cheapest.
Jansno is the budget end of this site, and it competes on one number: battery. The X90 carries 1,200 Wh at £799 and the X80 Pro 1,776 Wh at £1,099 — the largest pack in our catalogue, on a bike that costs less than half what the next-biggest asks. All 5 of the 5 models run fat tyres, all have suspension of some kind, all use a hub motor and a Shimano 7-speed drivetrain on a high-carbon steel frame, and all are recorded with free UK delivery from a UK warehouse.
The sensor is the thing to understand before you buy, because every Jansno product page gets it wrong. All of them advertise a torque sensor. Jansno confirmed to us in writing on 10 September 2026 that the X80, X80 Pro and X90 use a PAS cadence sensor instead; the X50 and X70 carry the identical template wording and the brand has not confirmed either way, so we treat them as unconfirmed rather than repeat the claim. On our reading, no bike in this range has a torque sensor. In practice that means assistance arrives when the pedals turn rather than scaling to how hard you push — most noticeable pulling away from a standstill, and worth a test ride if that is something you find awkward.
Where Jansno is a weaker fit: brakes, weight and choice. Only 1 of the 5 — the X80 Pro — has hydraulic disc brakes; the rest stop on cable-pulled mechanical discs, on bikes weighing 39 kg to 45 kg. Four of the five advertise a 45 km/h top speed, which is well beyond what a UK eBike may do under motor power — see UK road legality below. And three of the five come in one loud colour only, so a black or grey bike means the X50 or the X70. 1 of the 5 was out of stock at our last check.
UK road legality, model by model
To be ridden as an ordinary bicycle on a public road or cycle path in Great Britain — no licence, registration, tax or insurance required — an eBike has to meet the Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle (EAPC) rules: working pedals, a maximum continuous rated motor output of 250 W, and no motor propulsion above 15.5 mph (25 km/h). A throttle, if fitted, can need separate type-approval to keep that treatment. This is Great Britain guidance specifically; Northern Ireland publishes separate rules that this page does not cover.
This is where Jansno needs reading carefully, because the range does not sit comfortably inside those rules on its own published figures. Four of the five models — the X50, X70, X80 and X80 Pro — advertise a top speed of 45 km/h, roughly 28 mph, against the 25 km/h ceiling. The X70 publishes a 750W continuous rating and the X50 is sold with a 750W option, both well above 250 W. The X80 and X80 Pro publish no continuous rating at all, only a 1000W peak figure, so we cannot place them either way and say so in the table rather than guessing. Only the X90, at 250W rated and 25 km/h, is published entirely inside the ceiling.
None of that makes a bike impossible to own or ride — it is manufacturer-published data, not something we have tested, and a model sold in a UK-specific configuration can differ from the figures on a global spec sheet. Jansno describe the X90's build as an "updated configuration for UK compliance", which is exactly the kind of difference that matters. But it does mean you should ask Jansno directly what the bike you are ordering is limited to before assuming it can be ridden on a road or cycle path as an ordinary bicycle.

UK ownership facts
- Every current Jansno model in our catalogue is recorded with £0 delivery cost to the UK at our last price check — free UK delivery, at least at the time we last checked.
- Jansno UK publish a one-year warranty, a 15-day no-questions return window and Klarna at checkout, and quote 3–10 days for delivery from a UK warehouse. We read those off uk.jansno.com on 9 September 2026 rather than taking them on trust — but confirm them on the product page before you buy, because terms change.
- The UK store is the brand's own, not a reseller. Spares and battery replacements therefore come from Jansno directly, which is worth knowing for a range built around large, model-specific battery packs.
- Each individual model's own page (linked throughout this guide) includes our lock, insurance and registration recommendations for once the bike arrives.
Honest brand assessment
Editorial review: 10 September 2026
What Jansno does well: battery for the money, by a distance. £799 buys the X90's 1,200 Wh and £1,099 buys the X80 Pro's 1,776 Wh — the largest pack we track, on the cheapest bike that carries one. Every model is on fat tyres, every model has suspension of some kind, every model is recorded with free UK delivery, and the stock ships from a UK warehouse rather than from China, which is why the delivery estimate is days rather than weeks.
Where it compromises: the sensor, the brakes and the weight — in that order. Not one bike in this range uses a torque sensor. Every Jansno product page says "Torque Sensor"; Jansno told us in writing on 10 September 2026 that the X80, X80 Pro and X90 are PAS cadence, and the X50 and X70 repeat the same template wording with nothing to back it. A cadence sensor gives you assistance when the pedals turn rather than in proportion to how hard you push, which is most obvious pulling away from a standstill on a 40 kg bike. Four of the five stop on mechanical rather than hydraulic discs. Nothing here weighs less than 39 kg. And three of the five are sold in a single loud colour, so if you want a black or grey bike your choice is the X50 or the X70.
Who else to consider: if the sensor is what matters — and it does if anyone riding the bike struggles to get going from a standstill — start at eBikes with a torque sensor instead, or read our Cyrusher guide for the same heavy fat-tyre idea with torque sensing across the range. For something you can lift, ADO is far lighter. To see the whole field rather than one brand, browse fat-tyre eBikes or eBikes under £1,000.
Frequently asked questions
Do Jansno eBikes have a torque sensor?
No. Every Jansno product page describes a torque sensor, but Jansno confirmed to us in writing on 10 and 11 September 2026 that the whole range uses a PAS cadence sensor. Assistance therefore arrives when the pedals turn rather than scaling to how hard you push, which is most noticeable pulling away from a standstill.
Are Jansno eBikes road legal in the UK?
Only the X90 publishes figures inside the EAPC ceiling, at 250 W rated and 25 km/h. Four of the five advertise a 45 km/h top speed, the X70 publishes a 750 W continuous rating, and the X80 and X80 Pro publish no continuous rating at all. Ask Jansno what the specific bike you are ordering is limited to before assuming it can be ridden as an ordinary bicycle.
Which Jansno has the biggest battery?
The X80 Pro, at 1,776 Wh across two removable packs — the largest pack in our whole catalogue. The X70 carries 1,632 Wh and the X90 1,200 Wh for £799, which is the most battery per pound we track.
Do Jansno eBikes come with hydraulic brakes?
Only the X80 Pro. The rest stop on cable-pulled mechanical discs, which is worth weighing on bikes of 39 to 45 kg.
