More info about E-Bikes:
The type of e-bike you should get depends on your specific needs, preferences, and how you plan to use the bike. Here are some factors to consider when choosing an e-bike:
Type of Riding: Determine the primary purpose of your e-bike. Are you using it for commuting, recreational rides, mountain biking, or road cycling? Different types of e-bikes are optimized for different terrains and activities.
Motor and Power: E-bikes come with various motor types and power levels. The two main motor types are hub motors (located in the wheels) and mid-drive motors (integrated into the bike's frame near the pedals). The power of the motor is usually measured in watts, and higher wattage generally provides more assistance. Consider how much assistance you need, especially if you'll be riding uphill or over longer distances.
Battery Range: The battery's range is crucial, as it determines how far you can ride on a single charge. Consider your typical riding distance and choose a battery with enough capacity to cover that comfortably. Keep in mind that factors like terrain, rider weight, and assist level can impact the actual range.
Battery Placement: Batteries can be located on the downtube, rear rack, or integrated into the frame. Each placement has its advantages and disadvantages, affecting factors like weight distribution, aesthetics, and accessibility for charging.
Frame Style: E-bikes come in various frame styles, including step-through, diamond, and more. Choose a style that suits your comfort and preferences, as well as your intended riding style.
Assist Levels: E-bikes offer different levels of pedal assistance, usually ranging from eco to turbo modes. Consider how much control you want over the assistance and how much effort you want to put into pedaling.
Components: Just like traditional bicycles, e-bikes come with different levels of components. Higher-quality components generally result in better performance and durability, but they can also increase the cost.
Tires: Choose the appropriate tire type for your riding style. Wider tires offer more stability and comfort, while narrower tires are better for speed and efficiency.
Suspension: If you plan to ride on rough terrain, consider an e-bike with front suspension (hardtail) or both front and rear suspension (full-suspension) for a smoother ride.
Local Regulations: Be aware of local regulations regarding e-bikes, including speed limits, where e-bikes are allowed to be ridden, and whether a license or insurance is required.

I've done two bafang conversions that have worked great. One on a hard tail kona and I love it.
Another great video ❤ love hearing from Big John. I'm glad he's doing better
Oh snap off day in the sun 🌞 I was great to get last weekend off and went up Logan Utah canyon to second dam with my friend rex and hike it was great 👍 I'm a truck driver and I go from north Utah to Fort worth Texas and back sometimes I go to Indiana and Chicago I've been a driver since 2010 I've been everywhere in the United States 🇺🇸 but I have a dedicated lane now you have a great day I've seen a few of ride videos from time to time your bronco videos are awesome 👌 jam on and enjoy
Rikki you are the ultimate man a true daredevil. God bless you sir.
Great info. Thanks for sharing. Have some research to do 🤝🤘
.my husband's brother-in-law has one he's absolutely loves his. He takes it all over anywhere and everywhere . Hes insane 😅😅
While the speed of E-Bikes is impressive I'll still always prefer a gasoline engine in the middle of the frame. I grew up in the 70s and 80s around Hondas and Yamahas and the smell of their exhausts and sounds of their engines is gets my gears turning. Dirt Bikes are so much fun to ride. Hitting those dirt trails.
Yes, me too! However, I sort of look at these machines differenty. Thing I like most is being able to explore quietly.
Nice video! I have a bafang conversion that I love, have gotten it up to about 38mph on a straightaway. I live in NYC so I have to travel to ride nice trails, are those trails all near your house? I need to move. lol
Their all in a different class and its upto you what suits best. I personly like an ilegal pedal assist bike 3000 whats plus as its in the middle but obviously ilegal
Are you considering getting a talaria ever? Also loved playing the Whisky with you in May!
Rikki, I have an Aerial Rider Grizzly. 2 motors 1000W each. 2 batteries. All wheel drive. Throttle and pedal assist 6 levels.
I have heard good things about them!
@@ThePoisonDrummer Had mine for about 2 years now. The only complaint I have is the amount of torgue being delivered to the front wheel. Causes it to spin hard on the start and wears down the front tire. Small price to pay for top performance I guess.
Just a question. Do u ever have time to ride bikes/ motorcycle with Bret? Would love to see a video of yall hanging out ❤
I don't think he rides anymore.
So when you hop on one of those are you taking a Rocket Ride? Oh...wait... that's that other loud band from the 70,',s that wears greasepaint. I like the Yamaha by the way. 🥁
❤
I just want to know which one won't start my house on fire.
No fires here so far.
Do you enjoy the e bikes as much as gas engines ?
In a different way I do, but I'm also pretty old school.
Was going to ask same question ❤
