  • We’re trying out an Oset 24.0. It’ll be a long-term project. The machine and I, both. We’ll challenge its performance, and my skills. And we’ll have some actual talent in the form of our own Andrew Oldar, a professional dirt bike stud and trials expert, coaching and evaluating me along the way.
    --
    Order an Oset 24.0 Racing electric trials motorcycle drop-shipped to your door and you get this: three cardboard boxes. One giant, one a little bigger than a car battery, another that's a little flat, like you ordered a pair of flip-flops. Inside is everything you need to assemble a rad little ripper of a machine.
    We’re here building this bike for a very specific reason-and a fairly specific person: me. Much as I love riding in the dirt, I’m terrible at it. Specifically, I’m terrible at the high-precision, slow-speed technical riding that’s exemplified by the discipline of competitive trials. And until the arrival of the Oset, there was no sign of improvement on the horizon.
    Riding in the dirt is a tall order for me these days. I’m a new dad, for a start. And I live in the geographic center of Los Angeles, one of the more famously sprawling cities on the planet. So while quick escapes to pavement are numerous, loading up a truck or a van with a dirt bike and driving three hours to a decent riding OHV area is a big ask of the family. Disappearing long enough to get good at it, or practicing my dirt bike chops in my own neighborhood? Well, that’d get me shot.
    But the electric motorcycle revolution might just have my back, and the Oset 24.0 Racing might, might, be a perfect tool for sorting out some of those missing skills. If you’ve seen Motorcyclist contributor Chris Northover’s gobsmacking Storm the Embassy video on UA-cam, you’ll know that these little machines can take an astonishing amount of punishment, while delivering fairly spectacular performance. All at a neighborhood-friendly decibel level. That’s no small task.
    So we’re trying out an Oset 24.0. It’ll be a long-term project. The machine and I, both. We’ll challenge its performance, and my skills. And we’ll have some actual talent in the form of our own Andrew Oldar, a professional dirt bike stud and trials expert, coaching and evaluating me along the way.
    But first, we have a bike to build.

      @Kevin Barlage yes it's not a trials bike but the price is still way way over what it should be considering I have scene other e trials bikes of the quality and nearly half the price

    It's electric. They key is so you can disarm the bike so someone doesn't twist the throttle while you are just sitting there, expecting it to rev but instead it just takes off! I've seen that happen a few times and the forums are full of cautions to make sure to turn the bike off when you don't intend to ride it (either turn/remove the key or take the lanyard off).

    • @chriscantle2249
      @chriscantle2249 5 років тому +2

      That magnetic kill cord is super sensible for exactly that reason. There's also a little set of lights on the throttle-side of the bars that indicate the thing's on and the remaining battery. But otherwise, sitting there ready to rip, it's just dead silent.

    I love it that you guys are working in your own way, creating your own "new buddies" chemistry and do not mimic the previous guys. I loved Ari and Zack, and I still do. But we all evolve, we all move on. We all have our goals and challenges. So it is nice to see a different approach. It is nice to see you not trying too hard to impress, just doing your stuff. Building a new real format of YOUR show.
    I keep my fingers crossed for you and I will keep on following your content.

    $4400?!? I built a 1000w bicycle, cost me about $600. $400 for the battery and $200 for bolt on kit. Same battery wattage/voltage.
    I'm not saying this thing isn't fun to ride, but that is a very steep price for what it is.

    This looks improvised. I don't want to see vlogs. The older videos were always well built, well scripted. I wish this was a well made 6 minutes video, with some low volume sound playing, an intro and some good camera movement, not a Tripod. Also, so many jump cuts. You can do better than this guys. I still believe in this channel
