From Gunwerks . . .
Introducing the The TRAK, the latest edition of the Skunkwerks series of limited run rifle packages from Gunwerks. We built & assembled The TRAK in collaboration with several brand partners with the mission to provide the ultimate bike hunting kit to take you farther, get you there faster, and do it all quietly, ultimately saving you time and energy to focus your efforts on the hunt, not the approach.
For many hunters, mobility is the biggest challenge. Getting the truck to the trailhead and killing the animal are the easy parts. It’s getting into the mountains or to the spot they want to hunt, and carrying all their gear there where the majority of time, effort and planning are spent.
In applications where an Ebike is acceptable (some wilderness & regulatory restrictions), like areas in the midwest [quietly] getting to tree stands and portions of the west with single track and closed logging roads, an ebike allows quick access, quiet approaches, and easy exfil without expending all one’s energy.

An easy to pack folding rifle with pack and all the gear needed, makes getting that gear hauled around on the bike and also moving around once parked a big advantage, leaving more energy and time to focus on finding and killing your trophy animal.

I’ve never ridden an ebike. Does anybody still make solid tires for bikes? My biggest off road problem is flats.
I like the look of that rifle. But for my hunting .243 works best. My maximum shot I will take is 300 yards. And I try to get closer when possible.
“Does anybody still make solid tires for bikes? My biggest off road problem is flats.”
You *really* don’t want a solid bike tire, it will beat the living hell out of you, and your spine.
There are *excellent* options available in highly puncture-resistant tires. How good? I used a bike for primary transportation for a few years, and once I discovered Specialized brand ‘Armadillo’ tires, flats just stopped happening. I had maybe 2 in 3 years of daily riding, and those 2 came from sidewall puncture.
They’re not cheap, expect about 100 dollars a pair, but I cannot recommend them highly enough, they are that good.

Continental’s ‘GatorSkin’ are also excellent :

I use to use the armadillo tires when commuting by bike as a graduate student in the early 2000s. I absolutely loved them. Awesome
That’s the same time I discovered them, the early ’00s. They wear like iron…
$16,000 ooofff, not saying it wouldn’t be worth it but duuude that’s some money for a rifle and ebike. I would probably just take the ebike. Never thought about using one for hunting, now days they have up to 80miles of range and will do 50mph. It’s an electric dirt bike essentially.
$16000 is and absurdly.sill price.
You can buy a perfectly good off road electric bike with 1000w from Rad Power Bikes for $2000. My dad has had one for years and put thousands of miles on it. I’ve ridden it. Ots great.
Folding rifle, I don’t know maybe another $1000-2000. A folding rifle might not be totally necessary anyway. Maybe use an AR 10 and pop the upper and lower apart for transport.
Other stuff like panniers and what not maybe $1000.
This kit looks cool, but a perfectly acceptable alternative could be had for $4000-6000.
That’s pretty neat.

Eco friendly, good grass milage, 4 hoof drive, amphibious, and comes complete with emergency food supply.
Saddle up buckaroo.
possum, you know there are those here who may offended by the idea of eating a horse.
Pretty smart deer too, hiding from him in the backpack like that…
Buddy of mine has a pair of ebikes and does off-roading with his kid. Lot easier to transport than a horse.
Neigh.
That’s why I say we have no hope for change except by force. This country has been taken over by corrupt politicians for over 45 years. Everyone one that in government from the past 45 years has baggage. They all need to be put on trial and investigated.i do home work ….. 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐤.𝐜𝐨𝐦
