Amflow PX vs PR Carbon Pro: Is the PX Worth £1100 More?

One of the most common questions we’re getting right now is simple:

If the PR Carbon Pro has the same motor and similar spec… why pay more for the PX?

On paper, the Amflow PR Carbon Pro looks like incredible value — and it is. But the Amflow PX is not just a more expensive version of the same bike. It’s a different platform, built around performance, weight and next-generation battery technology.

On Paper: They Look Similar

• Both use the Avinox M2S motor
• Both deliver up to 150Nm torque in Boost
• Both have the same high-end Fox suspension and similar geometry
• Both are full carbon e-MTBs

So it’s easy to assume they should feel the same on the trail — but they don’t.

The Key Difference: Platform, Not Spec

The biggest mistake is comparing these bikes purely on components.

The PR Carbon Pro is built around a removable 800Wh battery platform, prioritising range and convenience.

The PX is built around a lighter, high-density 700Wh battery system, designed to maximise performance, reduce weight and fully unlock the motor.

Important: The PR Has Not Replaced the PL

One of the biggest misconceptions right now is that the PR Carbon Pro is simply the new version of the previous PL platform — but that’s not the case.

The PX platform has evolved from the original high-performance PL concept, continuing to push lightweight design, integrated battery technology and maximum performance.

The PR range has been introduced as a new, more accessible platform, designed to offer outstanding value, a removable battery system and a lower price point.

• PX: premium, performance-led platform (replacement for the original PL concept)
• PR: new entry point to the range with different priorities

So while the PR Carbon Pro looks similar on paper, it is not replacing the PX — it is sitting alongside it as a different option in the lineup.

Weight & Ride Feel

• PX: ~20kg
• PR Carbon Pro: ~22kg

That ~2kg difference is makes a big difference on the trail.

• The PX feels lighter, sharper and more agile
• Faster direction changes and more responsive handling
• More “normal bike” feel despite full power

The PR Pro feels more planted and stable, but not as lively or reactive.

Battery Technology: This Is Where the PX Wins

This is the biggest difference — and the one most riders overlook.

• PX: 700Wh high-density integrated battery
• PR Pro: 800Wh removable battery

The PR has more capacity, but the PX has more advanced battery technology.

• Higher energy density (220 Wh/kg)
• Better heat management
• More efficient power delivery
• Faster charging

This is what allows the PX to feel more responsive and maintain stronger performance across all modes — not just short bursts.

Motor Performance: Same Motor, Different Output

Both bikes use the M2S motor, but they don’t perform identically.

• PX: up to 1500W peak power across riding modes
• PR Carbon Pro: up to 1500W in Boost, ~1300W in normal riding modes

This is due to the battery system — not the motor itself.

Charging Speed

• PX: ultra-fast charging (up to 508W)
• PR Pro: fast charging with a 12A charger, but not as quick overall

This makes a real difference if you ride regularly or want quick turnarounds between rides.

Design & Integration

• Cleaner, slimmer frame on the PX
• More integrated battery design
• More “premium” overall finish

The PR is still a great-looking bike, but the PX feels like a more advanced, purpose-built platform.

So… Is the PX Worth £1100 More?

It depends what you value.

Choose the PR Carbon Pro if:

• You want maximum value for money
• You want a removable battery
• You prioritise range and practicality

Choose the PX if:

• You want a lighter, sharper bike
• You want the most advanced battery tech
• You want stronger performance across all modes
• You care about handling and ride feel
