How we checked

Both cycmotor.com (manufacturer) and electrifybike.com (retailer) pages are explicitly the "CYC Photon Gen 2 Mid Drive Conversion Kit" — exact model confirmed, not the X1 Pro/X1 Stealth siblings or the earlier Photon Gen 1. The manufacturer page confirms 750W rated (250W version on request), 1200W peak, 130N.m, 36V-72V compatible, kit ships without battery, SW102T/Intuition display, magnetic speed sensor, and the $950.00 base price. Electrify Bike corroborates the 250W/750W firmware, 3.2 kg weight without cranks (converted to 7.1 lbs), 34-50T chainring and 68-120mm bottom-bracket options, and the torque + cadence sensing bottom bracket; it labels 110N.m as the default-config peak, while the manufacturer's headline 130N.m (max) is used for max torque. Voltage removed (36-72V range, no single system voltage); max speed/PAS levels/install time not stated on either page. The page this record originally cited (https://www.cycmotor.com/product-page/photon-gen-2) returned 404 when re-checked on 2026-09-10 from two vantages, so the second recorded capture of the same figures — electrifybike.com, read 2026-07-10 — is the source now, and this record no longer claims an independent corroboration.
