Where each one wins
- Bezior XF001 is 5.4 kg lighter.
The Bezior X1500 does not lead on a single measured axis here. That does not make it the wrong bike, but it does mean the Bezior XF001 is the one to justify not buying.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the two land within 5% of each other, which is inside the error on any of these inputs. Cost is not the deciding factor here.
That figure moves mostly on the battery. The Bezior X1500 covers about 32,747 km before its pack is due for replacement; the Bezior XF001, about 32,000 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Which one to buy
- Pick the Bezior XF001 if you carry the bike up steps, onto a train, or into a flat.
Verdict
On the measured axes the Bezior XF001 is the better buy, and the Bezior X1500 needs a reason of its own: a colour, a frame, a shop you trust, a price that moves. None of those are in our numbers, and all of them are legitimate.
Range here is an estimate under one reference ride, not a measurement. Yours will differ with terrain, weight, tyres and weather, which is what the range calculator is for.
