# Weldless E-Mountain Bikes Caofen's 'F80' E-Bike is Made Without Welded Components By Colin Smith | Published 2023-03-30 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caofen-f80 References: [visordown](https://www.visordown.com/news/new-bikes/caofen-f80-electric-motorcycle-set-april-uk-launch) & [caofenmotor](https://www.caofenmotor.com/)  The Caofen F80 is an upcoming [electric mountain bike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macfox-s2) from Caofen, a China-based micro-mobility brand. The F80 has a few unique features that set it apart from the competition. Namely, the bike boasts a weldless design, an ultra-fast two-hour charging time, all while offering dual sport performance either on or off the road. In terms of its actual specifications, the Caofen F80 runs on a 10.7 horsepower motor combined with a 3.5 kWh battery pack, resulting in a top speed of roughly 57 mph and a range of 80 miles per charge. This range is less of an issue, though, as the bike recharges in only two hours from an empty battery to over 80% charge. The Caofen F80 will soon debut in the Chinese and United Kingdom markets at an MSRP of £5,940 or roughly $7,000 USD.
