    Interesting. I'm seeing some smarter design choices VS the Lectrix XP Lite, plus the multiple gears VS just 1... This might be a good contender for me!

    • @scotthardesty
      @scotthardesty  3 місяці тому +1

      I can see how it would compete with Lectric for sure.

    Were it not for the cold and snow (I was raised in NY/NJ so, had enough of that)...Chicago might have been on our move-to list. Certainly, where you take us on your reviews is absolutely gorgeous so...to the naysayers, I say what ANY good New York or Chicago city boy would say.
    Also...love your sound effects...especially during the sand test. 😂👍
    Silly question from a non-video guy: How do you get all the different camera angles? Or is that like a magician's trick you dare not reveal?😉

      hahaha... Thanks. I use a Insta360 X3 camera. It magicially makes the stick that is holding the camera disappear. This allows it to look like someone is filming me even though I am alone.

    Would love to see your take on the Aipas A2. Similar bike at a similar price. They resemble Lectric but with more features.

      They were suppose to send me that bike but now they want sent me the M2 instead.

      The Rack I use is cheaper than purchasing a new bike. Check it out. ua-cam.com/video/H-BCvRgnOAA/v-deo.htmlsi=kFAWM1YrJBAVkTEj

    Lighter bikes is at the core of multiple crashes in European road racing the past few weeks, Scott. Most of the world's best cyclists are recovering from broken collar bones, multiple broken ribs, clavicles, spinal fractures, and even sternums, and preliminary study is blaming weight taken out of the bikes. The weight of the riders on them is causing traction of the lightened bikes under them to fail. The road racing event scheduled for the Olympics in July will be missing almost all the world's best riders. I am therefore no longer a disciple of lighter bikes. They are proving more dangerous to riders, even in the hands of the world's best cyclists. I realize this is not directly connected to your video, but rational conversation must start everywhere to reverse the wrong direction bike design is taking. Lighter is more dangerous.

      I appreciate the input, although, I don't think anyone is going to use this bike in any sort of race or cross country event. Either way, I get the point you are trying to make.

      That's unfortunate for thoughs injuries but myself is short barely 119 , just looking for any decent to cruise. Don't know how much other weight but to do competitions on lighter bikes maybe tall asF also 😬
