Nice bicycle. Nice helmet. I have used full face helmets since 1974. Evel Knievel's Caesar's Palace crash convinced me. I currently use a flip front helmet and I have no regrets. Yes, if you use too much front brake on a loose surface, you will do the "Whoopslam". Yes, that's one word.
Thanks for the tips and new word-for me.
Good choice and good idead, Steve👍. My daughter and her husband bought 2 bikes liked yours. It's made in Germany. My grandson( 13 years old)can ride on it with his younger brother ( 7)behind.They took to travel behind their camper van for last year .Hope you have a lot of fun with it.Chaised a rabbit and caught a frog.😆😃Enjoying your new toy😉.Best wishes to you and your children .
I find this review very funny/awkward as I used to live in Las Vegas for three years in the 90's and moved away as I felt I had become thick skinned and I no longer felt too much empathy towards people as I worked as a BJ/roulette dealer in a casino.
I was so happy after I moved away as I felt my heart soften towards my fellow human being but watching this video I can't help fall back in love with the open quiet desolation of the desert and feel a pang of remorse for leaving. 🌵
Your visibility was much better than ours was in western Washington. The rains are back, so the air quality index is back in the 40's, whereas it was 160 a week ago. I couldn't see to the end of my 500 foot driveway when the smoke was at its worst. That E-bike looked fantastic!!!
I've seen the pics. Terrible. Love Washington wilderness.
Man I love your setup! I have a 3rd gen Montero and the Scrambler fits right in the back with the front wheel off! It's a great combo, and glad to see more overlander's or "urban landers" running it!
FYI the Scorpion helmet went back. Got home and tried it on the street. Peripheral vision is not good with my anatomy. Neither is looking at the side view mirror at a glance. It has great reviews however and not every helmet is right for everyone. Go to a shop and try and test many until you find the "one.". check for pressure points and if you can see your mirrors at a glance of the eyes not a turning of the head. Same with the instruments. Check for peripheral obstruction. Vision is key. Stay safe.
Now that is a cool, handy, and useful bike! Thanks for sharing the shakedown cruise. Going to have to seriously consider a pair of these.
Something so satisfying about exploring on a quiet ebike vs dirtbike engine. And charging it for free with solar. Great ebike looks nice! Maybe someday we can go explore on our ebikes. Woooooo!
Yes indeed! That'd be cool. Good luck getting back to it. A deserved rest for sure.
Rode one in japan on vacation and they last a week on one charge - I’m getting me one here- they are really fast will be riding them to the convincing store instead of driving will also take it camping
Yeah. Theres a time and place for a loud 2 stroke dirt bike though. Gotta love that YING YINGGG ….. Love riding my Dirt bikes up and down the street on the 4th of July and doing wheelies and going wild with friends while we shoot roman candles at each other and overall cause a disturbance lol my Wife hates it…. its like the one day of the year where the neighbors are fairly cool and dont call the cops on us….
but its Ebikes for the rest of the year usually
Wow!! When you put the Helmet on I was like looks like to much but when you was riding off-road YES the Helmet needed
The content and explanation is great.
Thank You Steve! Great Vid.
I always enjoy your vids Steve, so thanks for this one!
Nice!!! Looking to get one myself here in Vegas also! Thanks for the great ideas, have been using some for my overland build also. Keep it up!
I like that it’s quiet. More bike adventures please.
Great video and editing, Steve. Thank you.
They way of the future..
Thank you Steve
Great video.
Well that was fun. I'm a little dizzy now but I had a good time. 🤗 Nice bike.
Just met a guy today age 67. He looked more like 50. You are "middle-aged " Rock on! Great video, great stuff 👍
New to the channel. Relate so much to escaping the noise of the city. Thanks for the wisdom!
Interesting idea, and looks fun! I'll have check out the e bikes.
Thanks for the sound test!
Get some picture proof liners for your tires, and probably some slime. Haven’t had a flat since I did that. Love my scrambler, I’m 51, woohoo!
Good tips.
I am a 40 year old Asian man, I love Harbor Freight and just bought an eBike that I attach to the back of my Subaru.
I am basically just Xplorer Steve in training.
Enjoy a fabulous life!
I didn't even know they made manual crank windows anymore. Nice eBike. 👍😎
They're new!
Those were some cool trails that you were riding on! Great video Steve, I just stumbled upon your channel a couple weeks ago and I've been binge watching your videos. Keep doing what you do, it's awesome!
Thanks, will do!
Hey Steve, Floyd Lamb Park is a nice place. I hear all the rabbits on the grounds are gone. The Peacocks? My 88 year young brother and his wife walk there and picnic twice a week. Hey, no swearing as the bike tipped over and no swearing detected, nice save. Interesting the charge connection is a balanced audio XLR plug. The helmet looks like you're ready for a trip to Portland. The flat top of the frame and seat shape remind me of my good old Bonanza mini bike. Linking the Bluetooth GOPRO to display on the cell phone sure is a neat feature. 60? I didn't realize you were such a baby... I'm going to email this video to my brother, this bike would be perfect for them. Take care...
Rabbits are still around. Yes it does remind me of the mini bikes they had displayed at Western Auto when I was growing up. Maybe that was the allure.
Excellent choice and a great set-up Steve. I said "there's my baby' just before you did..well produced upload there XS.
that talking head you got in the beginning and end of the video is one squirrely looking thing
Very cool bike! I own 4 electric bikes, they're a blast. Two are the folding type that fit nicely in my truck bed when I camp. Building them with DIY conversion kits are much, much less expensive. I will say that the Juiced Bike products are top notch though, heard nothing but good things.
Great video. Amazed at the clarity of the audio and lack of wind noise when you are going full speed
Thanks! I use the GoPro audio adapter with either a Rode mini shotgun or a lapel mic-both with dead cat. Post production adjustments cleans it up a bit. I hate bad audio and it makes for an early out when I get it.
Great video Steve
Nice bike -Helmet for sure... dont die in the desert ! So funny when you said that😂🤣❤
Travel Fun Made me chuckle, too.
I WANT TO BUY ONE!!! LOOKS LIKE ITS FUN TO RIDE AND LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !
Nice video, Steve. Glad you found some diversionary things to do w/ your 4Runner/bike. Enjoy the effort you take to make videos for your subscribers. Be safe out there. Glad you're wearing a helmet.
PS. You have a new NFL football team now - they're looking strong early. Something to do on Sundays.
Great video...Awesome toy...
That’s a fancy set up you got there Steve, a little pricey and really like the helmet... Enjoying your vids too
Nice e bike. 👍Seems a perfect compliment for the lifestyle.
You're living my dream 😁
Ebikes are so great. I love mine. I am 74.
Right on!
Sweet ride! Who needs a harley when you can have a juiced! All you need now is a grocery basket on the front. Thanks for uploading
You're f****** awesome dude I should watch your videos stop watching the news
I was jurst tellin me mate in england aboot this .. this is such a good thing .. furr out in the desert wharrs i do a lot of prospecting ..and yes im gettin older to ..jurrst what the dr ordered.. thanks mr steve baby
.😎😁
Glad you made the switch from Grom to Juiced. Helmet is a little overboard but to each his own. I have a Rad Mini; it folds up and fits in a space I’ve provided/designed in my 2017 GMC Savanna 2500 van. If it ever rains while I’m out and about; my Rad Mini will be protected. Also, take a look at the REI Flexlite Boss; it’s a little bigger than the regular Flexlite but MUCH more comfortable... and packs pretty much the same. Great video keep up the great work!
Impressive Steve. I like it .
Even though I don’t live in Vagas I always manage a stop at Capriotti’s. Good choice. The wife and I just got back from 4 days in Vegas I think I’ll stay away during football season going forward.
Great info on your new 2 Wheel ride. Like you the age factor is playing a major part in what type of bike I buy.
Thanks for another great video Steve
That has got to be the coolest bike and helmet I have ever seen!
Also, you don’t need a Title, register or insurance for it. Wonderful
Thanks for sharing
True!
And we don't need to go to DMV take a driving test like motorcycle 👍😁
V P , also true, however it’s always a good idea to receive proper instructions before embarking on a new adventure.
@@MissMarinaCapri Agreed 👍😊
Great video ,interesting little bike , pretty neat.
Congrats on the ebike! I’ve had a Giant road ebike for the past two years and I love it. Just one thing, Steve - you gotta pedal that thang! You’re making it too easy on yourself. 😎
Thanks for the tip! But I got the big battery. I don't want to waste it. 🙄
sound of tire hitting dirt 👍👍👍
Awesum! Cool helmet. Cool bike. I Love all the equipment and space and skills you have. You must have trained as a woodworker
Hey Steve... Sorry about the smoke from the fires out west .... It's a shame that so many acres have been ruined !!!! LOVE the NEW TOY ! That thing moves pretty GOOD too :) Only thing that would make it ride a bit smoother, rear suspension (as you mentioned in the video), ... But I still think it IS "wicked COOL" !!! Also, that was a NICE park that you ventured to ...
Great video as usual.👍🙂🇨🇦
You look fantastic for 60 Steve!
I try
Very cool ebike Steve! I have the RadMini folding ebike, so I can avoid having to use my hitch… I have almost 1600 miles on it now and still loving it! I do like your choice of style.. the seat is reminiscent of the old banana seat bikes when we were kids.. i had the cool one with a smaller front wheel and a small back rest.. lol. Those Scorpion EXO helmets are awesome.. I have one i use with my scooter as well.. nicely configurable!
I have looked at buying something like this or a electric mountain bike. Nice video
Entertaining as always. At the end I thought I was being attacked by a ninja! 😆
Great video :)
Cool electric bike
Officially jealous, I've been thinking about getting a dirtbike for my 4Runner micro camper Marty!
My latest video, I got a Sur Ron. If you get one, That is the one to get.
I camped out a Honda crv 2003. 23-28 mpg and reliable car.
Very cool bike! I was looking to buy a Rad Power Bike. I will check out the brand you bought. Take care and thank you for sharing!
I was wondering where was Floyd Lamb Parc (I was in Last Vegas for the first time this winter with my Van)so I looked it up and google map, and I have not been there... but found the arial view of the gun range next to it interesting 🤔
That looked so much fun! Also, my younger brother just gave me his 2003 VW Eurovan GLS! And, I thought of you, Xplorer Steve! I thought of all those tools you got in your vancave... LOL! I am going to build out the van but keep everything simple. I really like your 4Runner conversion for its simple yet functional design. But, I will have to do it ever so slowly as I'm currently taking care of my ailing parents and being a mom to a high schooler... BTW, geese. 😉😜
Eurovan= gold. Great platform and they do well on trails. I am a bit jealous.
I WANT ONE!
Another awesome fun and informative video!!!! and speaking of urbanlander, planning on building one with a Toyota Sienna van with AWD and Journeys Off-road offers a lift kit for the van also.
Sounds great!
Nice video, cool electric scooter🐻
Own a City Scrambler myself real nice bike. I highly suggest visiting the FB group Modded juicedbikes.
Any issues or changes in the future start there and get it sorted fast with many examples and unique mods to make it fun.
Personally I can't leave well enough alone and have been changing my bike a bit. Enjoy!
Thanks for the tips!
Back in the day capriottis was the best sub shop in Delaware, but once they started expanding and teens were working the stores you barely got any meat in the sandwich and the price went up. So now i found a new spot with lots of meat and good roll.
Once they start messing with the quality.....
love it...also, the sandwich
I have one of these and I love it. I’ve put about 1,100 miles on it in the last year. So much fun! One thing I had to do ultimately was install a tire liner on the rear tire. I had too many punctures and it’s not fun to change the rear tire tube at all. So far, the tuffy liner has done a great job. Barring that, make sure you’re carrying a tube and a 8mm (I think) open socket.
Also, it’s even less fun to try to walk that heavy bike back to somewhere to repair with a flat tire. It looks like they’ve made a few nice upgrades (the seat looks reinforced for example) so maybe that’s a different tire or you just generally won’t have a problem with flats, but I’d recommend being prepared nonetheless.
Do you use Slime product as well? Also this bike has a "walk assist" where you press and hold the -button and it helps you along.
I recently got Aostirmotor 500W folding ebike myself and enjoying it. Hope you have a blast with yours. If you can somehow put in a homemade rear shock that will make it perfect. Happy riding!
Cool little bike. I remember Tule Springs from my time in Vegas, but it was just a place in the desert. None of those improvements??, no fees also.
$6 per car now per day.
You could've bought 2 'lectric' ebikes for the price of one of these. It's foldable, new step thru design, comes with fenders, rear carrier, 500 w motor, 28 mph, fat tires on sale for $899 free shipping in lower 48. With a promo code they throw in a set of saddlebags.
It's a personal choice for sure. Lots to choose from now days.

Neeto bike Steve! I wish I had something like that when I did my bike ride video through Waikiki, huffin' n' puffin' up Diamond Head Road!
Yeah but you are in remarkably good shape Al. They are fun..
Nice 3rd gen runner
Nice! I am converting a 2010 ford transit connect into a little camper/Adventure van, 15 gallons of water, 200 amps of LiFePO4 battery(still in a box I have to assemble it) eventually a little 12 volt compressor fridge, just haven't gotten that far. I am disabled, at work a metal stair collapsed under me trashing my back. I was always into camping, but the packing the vehicle, unpacking setting up the tents and awning is just too much for me now, I can roll in, drop down a 9x12 mat set my 8x8 awning up, Pull out the ebike and I am ready to go. I am waiting on my 52v 23 amp battery and the charger that allows you to charge to 90% or 100%. I am going the don't fully charge and don't drain the battery below 10% to see if it increases the amount of recharge cycles. I have a Montague Paratrooper, I like the bike, 26" tires, rugged folding mountain bike is going to be the "donor" bike. Probably going to cap the speed at 20mph, most of my peddling is at 8-12mph and going slower under throttle increases range (or so they say lol) My battery should be here in 2 weeks so I guess I will find out eventually. I want the ebike for off road exploring, just want to see more of nature. I am 53, and the back thing has definetly slowed me down a bit, so I think the ebike will be a plus.
Thanks for your story. I am a bit jealous and have always wanted to do a full van build out. Sounds like you got things figured out.
I hear you about the air quality, up here in Reno it has been terrible for the last three+ weeks. If I spend more than an hour outside I tend to get a headache.
first of all I have to say that you look great man 👍
I would have never guess that you are approaching 60
Keep doing whatever you are doing.
I really like that E-bike, it reminds me of the old school mini bike.
I actually put an old mini bike together and got up to 41mph 😮 but that was way too scary for me, it only has 13 " diameter tires. I have a couple of videos of it, you could check it out :)
whoa whoa whoa! too fast too fast, bridge! bridge! won't fit won't fit! slow down slow down, we crash that's gonna hurt! 60? you're well preserved, don't risk a hip! JK.. Thanks for the ride, I'll walk, which direction is the car? Enjoy your new toy! Good idea on the helmet. And I do like the it, maybe a suit to go with it huh? See ya next week..
An EUC would be good for your set up. It's more portable than that bike, you could keep the EUC inside your vehicle. I love mine for exploring new areas.
60? A mere child. Glad you’re having fun. We encourage such behavior. 🤪
All good! :)
That's a cool bike. Catching up with you on age, so I know what you mean.
Nice video! Planning to get the new Rip Racer. What kind of bike rack is that?
Fantastic, always wanted to get one. Well-done, the cheapest e-bike from China cost USD250 here in Malaysia.
Very nice helmet looks good
I sent it back for reasons listed in comments.
@@XplorerSteveDIY got ya
super coolio!
I was going to buy a Juiced Scrambler when they were offered on Indiegogo for a great price. But i chickened out when i realized there was no adjustment for the seat. With my long legs, i knew that might be a problem.
I agree. I understand they come only in one size. So, how does a tall person, 6'3" fit on this bike with no saddle adjustment? With bikes, one size does not fit all.
Goose/Geese/Gaggle of Geese. Nice Bike.
I'd be interested to hear how you lock up the bike (to the outside of your 4Runner??) when you are sleeping, & also when you're eating at a diner?
How heavy is the bike and how long does battery last?
Im looking for a Toyota 4wd to do some car camping. What Toyota model do you have?
When you said did you see the jackrabbityou should have paused it and put an arrow on it I never seen a live rabbit with deer antlers lol the helmet is cool it reminds me of the movie called The Wreath and that looks like a good bike but no back shocks or pegs
Awesome vlog. Like the banana seat, it brings back memories. Oh, and how do you avoid helmet head? I take off a helmet and I look like one of the Young brothers on an AC/DC album. Will start looking for a good van to equip for travel after the Texas heat subsides.
Safe travels.
A lot of people are getting their bikes stolen off of their vehicles. Make sure you use some heavy duty type security. Those bikes are expensive. Cool looking bike man looks like fun.
Thanks for the tip
Should make a video why you chose this bike versus other bikes on the marker
aww make me wait to tell us about the grom! I wanted to comment about the new Honda 125 Trail coming out! If your ever in the bend, hood river, or jackson hole area checkout New York Sub Shop and get their root beer also from the fountain its specially good! Its Rochesters!
GOOD tip,,,, "Thank for sharing"
I got to write that down. Love Bend. Thought it would be a good place to end up but so does everyone, it seems.
You should get a EUC (electric unicycle), they are awesome portable transportation!
How are they offroad?
The company is the best.
I loved capriotti's when I was in Vegas then they came to Michigan and was not the same I was there first customer I Michigan
Skimped on the quality? usual suspect.
@@XplorerSteveDIY the one by the Albertsons at Eastern and warm springs just a little smaller shop little nicer people food tasted better I guess
