"Climb Like a Beast. Descend in Style."
Meet the Scout, Bakcou's first full-suspension fat tire e-bike built for the thrill of the ride. We took the very best of our best-selling Storm and the Carbon Alpha to create a beast of a trail bike, engineered to take you to the top and then let you rip down the mountain. The Scout's unique geometry and top-of-the-line suspension make it the perfect cross-over sport trail bike, combining the raw power of the Bafang Ultra motor with the agility you need for technical descents.
The increased traction from the fat tires gives the Scout the ability to handle any mountain terrain with ease, while the integrated battery and improved cable housing create a sleek, streamlined profile. Powered by the "diesel engine" of mid-drive motors and paired with a smooth SRAM NX 11-speed drivetrain, the Scout delivers a natural, intuitive ride feel that allows you to conquer any trail your adventure leads you to.

Trail Dominance: The Bafang Ultra Motor
Power Your Ascent
The Scout was designed and engineered around the unparalleled power of the Bafang M620 Ultra Motor. This smart motor is recognized as the "diesel engine" of fat tire e-bikes for a reason. Its all-metal, heavy-duty gearing, combined with the intelligence of an integrated torque sensor, makes it the most capable, durable, and efficient motor on the planet. It provides continuous feedback from you to the motor, delivering exactly what you ask for—a natural feeling ride with a tremendous amount of torque on tap for the steepest climbs.
Engineered for Agility: Advanced Trail Suspension
Rip Down the Mountain
What sets the Scout apart is its unique geometry and top-of-the-line suspension. The RST Renegade Air Fork and heavy-duty rear suspension are built to handle the Ultra motor's power while providing a playful and responsive ride. This isn't just a hunting bike; it's a true sport trail machine. The suspension is tuned to absorb big hits and small bumps alike, keeping the fat tires glued to the trail for maximum traction and control, allowing you to descend with confidence and style.
