JackRabbit's MG Doble: The Two-Person 'E-Bike' That's Too Much Fun for Its Own Good!

TL;DR: The JackRabbit MG Doble isn't your average e-bike; this two-person, pedal-free 'micro-hauler' is proving to be compact, powerful, and outrageously fun! With its foldable design and swappable RangeBuster batteries, it's carving out a unique niche for urban dwellers who want a peppy, portable ride for two.
Meta: The JackRabbit MG Doble is a compact, two-person, throttle-only 'e-bike' that offers a fun and portable urban mobility solution with swappable batteries.
Alright, alright, settle in, 'cause we're talkin' about a ride that's got folks scratchin' their heads and grinnin' from ear to ear! The JackRabbit MG Doble – now this ain't your grandma's e-bike, baby! It's not quite an e-bike, not quite a mini-bike, and it definitely ain't got no pedals. But what it does have is a whole lotta fun packed into a compact, two-person package. Reviewers are callin' it 'addictive' and 'surprisingly rare' for a two-seater that actually delivers on the good times. It's like a stripped-down motorcycle that decided to go on a diet and still hit the dance floor!
JackRabbit already made a name for itself with those quirky, ultra-lightweight microbikes, but the MG Doble is a big step up. It feels more substantial, more like a real vehicle, even with its mismatched 24x3" front and 20x3" rear tires. And get this: it folds up! Handlebars spin, foot pegs fold in, makin' it skinny enough to stash in an apartment hallway or a car trunk. For all you urban dwellers with too many bikes and not enough space, this is a game-changer. It's like having the two-up fun of a motorcycle, but it hides against the wall like a shy teenager at a school dance.
The Joy of No Pedals (and RangeBuster Batteries!)
Now, some folks might gasp, 'No pedals, Eddie? What about the exercise?' Honey, some of us got other ways to break a sweat! This thing was built to be throttle-only, and JackRabbit ain't apologizin' for it. You mash that throttle, and you go. It's quick, nimble, and climbs hills better than you'd expect, even with two people. Reviewers barely noticed a difference in power with a passenger on board. And the vibes? Pure goofy grin factor, baby! It's quick, it leans into corners, and your passenger holds on tight. That's a memory in the making!
And let's talk about the battery system – JackRabbit's 'RangeBuster' swappable batteries are genius! Small, lightweight, easy to carry. Each one's good for 24 miles, so with two on the Doble, you're talkin' 48 miles. Need more? Toss a spare in your backpack and swap it in seconds. It's a brilliant solution, but here's a little side-eye: for a $2,499 'e-bike,' those keylock accessories for the battery should probably be standard, not sold separately. Just sayin'.
What's Next?
At $2,499, the MG Doble ain't cheap, but it fills a very specific niche that few other e-bikes touch. It's not trying to be everything to everyone; it's trying to be a portable, peppy, two-person party on wheels. If the RLS (Release Layer System) helmet from Rivian's spinoff ALSO proves to be a true leap in safety tech, pairing it with something like the Doble could create an even more compelling urban mobility package. This thing proves innovation comes in all shapes and sizes, and sometimes, the best fun comes without pedals.
If you ain't havin' fun on two wheels, you ain't livin'! And the Doble? It's all about livin'!
