Rubbee Drive 2.0 Review - $1k
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 лип 2015
- The Rubbee Drive 2.0 is a portable, all-in-one electric drive system designed to work with most traditional bicycles, folding and full suspension included!. Clean professional design, quick and easy to install or remove, sturdy leather handle for transporting, solid two year warranty, responsive customer support. Creates drag that slows you down and makes noise even when powered off, limited power and speed create an underwhelming experience, the locking pin that suspends the unit is vulnerable to breaking.

This product is from Lithuania and I am from there and I never seen anyone using this product, so it should ring some bells.
neither do I
Had hopes but thanks for the impartial statements. Yrs. ago had a French bike with small gas engine with a friction wheel contact on the front wheel. It was quiet, and efficient. A nickels worth of gas ⛽️ and you were on your way w/o a pedal assist.
My Rubbee uses LiFePO4 batteries and a replacement battery pack is completely unavailable. I am building a new pack as we "speak". Smooth tires are really the only way to go. Top speed is barely 13 mph. Its fun to play with yet not up to what a eBike should be these days.
friction drive like this has been around awhile. it destroys the back tire with one full season of riding and can't be used in the rain at all. without a solid locking connection between the back of the motor and the dropouts there's also no usable torque at all which is prob why every demo video ive seen so far has the guys pedaling and never fully relying on the motor.
jim: Um...One full season of riding SHOULD wear out a bike tire and if not, you are not riding very much so I am unsure what your point might be. Plus it has no throttle so...you must pedal. It IS underpowered (12v and 12 amps or so) and overpriced yet you do not mention this about your Rubbee. I would have to assume you have not ridden one?
I replace my rear tire every 3,000-5,000 miles on my friction drive. 4.2 HP (gas powered) And it has way more power than this weak rubbee system.
jim 1. Kevlar Tires
2. One full year of riding, not casually, will wear a tire with ANY drive system.
3. If you set the spindle pressure properly and do not over rev in wet weather, only snow truly stops a friction drive. I use a Staton kit with Zenoah G43, and tire wear and wet weather are a non issue with a kevlar Schwinn tire. Please stop spreading misinformation.
Wait...NO pedalac (pedal sensor) eBike can fully rely on the motor. You must pedal...there is no free ride. That being said...the batteries in my Rubbee lasted just one season (20-30 rides) and the entire time I was using itI was astonished how underpowered it was. I gave up on it and bought a Yamaha powered mid-motor eBike yet ANY Bosch, Yamaha or Brose powered bike will make you smile. Unfortunately this rubbee will not. After years I am still looking for new batteries for my Rubbee. I think I can use it to power a kids scooter.
Too much talking, not enough showing.
LOL!!!! it took a lot of words for him to sugar coat the oviouse fact that the Rubbmee 2.0 is more or less RubISH. Its amost seems like some obnoxcious product that woud be sold via infomercials the "As Seen ON TV" juNK
I bought one of these...two years ago. The batteries lasted about 20 rides and was way underpowered. I tossed it in the closet and bought a Yamaha powerd Haibike. I should have started with the Haibike or similar.
I bought one of these. It's super buggy and flakey. Power cuts out all the time and overheats on every ride. Broke down completely after a few rides. Cool idea, but definitely not ready for prime time and a full eBike doesn't really cost much more.
I wanted to buy it but most ebike dealers don't recommend it at all
+Sang Lee I haven't seen many in the US (if that's where you are from) but I know the company is working to correct some of the issues and launch a new version so we could see it become better :)
just looking at this now so sorry for the late comment: the locking pin stress failure 12:00 is a design issue and not something a rider/consumer needs to be saddled with hope rubbee has addressed this already, the portability is pretty cool
you need a long spring to hold the friction wheel to the bicycle tire
holy smoke. i was JUST doing research on citibike and bike sharing. and looking into electrifying them.
and you JUST PUT THIS UP.
great timing.
my quesiton------is the rubee capable of performing without the cadence sensor?
if you want to take this on and off a bike quickly--------what's the point of desinging this with a cadence sensor that takes effort and to put on the bike and is basically a permanent addition to the bike.
so -----------this is confusing. can the rubbee work properly without the cadence sensor? i mean, it's almost insane that a FRICTION DRIVE would be designed around a permanent affixed piece of hardware on the bottom bracket.
p.s. court---------have you seen this? it's AMAZING. at least as far as what they claim. bionicon motor. the day of high performance sub 25 pound ebikes is getting closer.

pp.s. i will save you the time of trying the 'new' sinclair A-bike that has been electrified. the bike without electric is a horrible bicycle. terrible. i've tried it. it's ...TERRIBLE. so with electric it's just electrified terrible bike. don't waste your time .......it's gettting hyped up on kickstarter now.
this looks really cool I was close to buying the pedigo ridge rider which i still want but I cant afford it right now. but this is really cool that I can just pit it one my current mountain bike for a little help uphills I think thats brilliant for commuting! and the fact that it just pops off when you dont want it is even cooler. because most electric bikes even the pedigo are to heavy for regular pedaling 55lbs. so this keeps your integrity of your regular mountain bike. this is very interesting.
I have a Rubbee and it is no Pedego. I am just happy I got mine cheap because the battery pack was dead. Get a real eBike unless you are just playing around as am I.
How does it respond under wet road condition? Same traction or is it slipping on the wheel?
They just came out with a most recent version, do you have a review about that one? It looks smaller, has LED break light on back and goes farther.
How can it get a grip in the RAIN LOL , back to the drawing board I think
Thank you for this. I had recently saved their site in my favorites. I have never ordered anything from overseas online. I'm a bit worried about your comment about customs problems. I do want one but first need to find a simple reverse adult tricycle (I emphasize simple!) so there is a single wheel in back but I'll have two wheels in front for balance (have balance issues from a stroke). Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Attached this to a £20 quid,($20)bike, use for commuting, local shops etc, remove battery.
If the bike gets stolen, you will have lost £20.
Very good idea but it won't beat the regular E bikes.
what is the rang per charge
HIJ heeft de censor niet aangesloten aan de trapas,er moet eerst beweging worden gemeten en dan gaat de motor werken
Does, it have Paddle charging...
great video! thanks
+joe smith Glad you enjoyed it Joe, thanks for the support!
how much dose this Rubbee 2.0 cost $$. All most no one sess .can you tell me,and where can i get one..
about a yr ago it was almost 1200 us. I know in New York, Brooklyn there is a store that will receive it 4 you so that your shipping is less.
Less than underwhelming, indeed. I should have watched this video and read the blog before buying. My motor started running uncontrolled on my 3rd time out. No way to stop it with the power button! Before you buy (or rather not), watch: ua-cam.com/video/kML7s7Boiqg/v-deo.html
A Superior system would Be a clamp on either side of the wheel Tightly fitted on Better contract more Efficient even the Angle of the motor Aiming 45 Degrees Down 👇 instead of on Top looks to weak
I had a massively bad experience with Rubbee X. Took me months to get a refund for a non-working product, and after a dispute with my payment company, they refunded me my purchase price minus 23-percent! "Wear and tear" on a product that only lasted for 75 miles.... shady. Buyer beware!!!
How can i get one
Can you add Rubbee to an existing electric bicycle? Was wondering!
Would make no difference top speed is top speed one can't add to top speed
Where i will get it
I think they might have gone out of business...
Perfect.
Donde puedo comprar una rubber drive
I'll bet it does wheelies easy with all the weight hanging off the back like that.
Is there a Throttle?
Nope
then, why u r clycing? :S
A small adult bike ?
Onde e como comprar
you weight 135? are you serious? do you not eat?!?!?
I would not waist my money on a Rubbee. The demonstration proved to me that the Rubbee creates drag on the rear wheel. It appears to be just a gimic.
Roooooobie that's how u say it . Americans alwase have problems with english . From a british man
hey I'm really thinking about buying one of these for 500$ it's on sale would you recommend it at this price
+Leonard Kubwimana Hi Leonard, I realize there's a lot of critical feedback here but the system does offer an advantage to unpowered riding. No ebike or kit is perfect for every situation so I'd look at this with your own needs in mind (including budget) to make a decision.
+ElectricBikeReview.com can I use this on a beach cruiser ? I need it for work I just need a small boost help to go up hills
cold productions u r better off buying a better bike first... beach cruisers are heavy steel crappy single speed bikes.
nice demo extordinary design i recommend for all graduate students should go at least one drive on it. this is more suitable for china and india .
+Ramineni Surendrababu Yeah, for people who want to take the drive system along and possibly use on multiple bikes with quick installation this is one of the only options around :)
Try a downhill test ya gonna fail because of the cogging in the motor good vid thou
+Joseph Chambers Thanks, yeah I would have liked more hill time and I agree that going downhill your speed would be checked by the system.
"Rubby" or "Rue-by"?
smilncynic I watched it on another site and they called it "Rue-by".
What is the point😱
I was about to buy it till I saw the genuine leather. I will not support animal product in what I use. Thanks for the review from some users
*IF YOU WANTED TO WAIST YOUR MONEY, BUY A RUBBEE*
Waste
Responder em português por gentileza
Alguém do Brasil? ?
Opa! Queria saber se alguém daqui já comprou e aprovou
Very noisy..!!
+Constantine Sfyris Yeah, the drive system is a bit noisy and you tend to hear it more because the motor is up higher towards your ears vs. down in the wheel.
Shrek rides bicycles?
$1000 Roo Goldberg machine
PAS MAL MA CHAT👍
Dizzy watching this
Too expensive.
I wouldn't entertain this .
PIECE
Sorry, I just don’t see the point. I’m out.
gähhhn...
Its just a rubbeesh idea , why would you get this theres much better out there .
Awful contraption
the brits would gall it the rubbish
Why?
A.L.Y.
Horee shit!
Rooks rike crap.
in rain, useless.
Why do you say this? You own one and find it useless in the rain? Mine works fine in the rain.
Why buy anything electric!!???? It craps out in the rain.now it's in the garbage because of one little puddle.
too noisy, I won't buy it
junk
any friction bike was very best idea when year1900.
now day only stupid people will pay for it.why? coz they are stupid.
+Rodeo Bikes I'm reviewing the Add-E soon and it's actually pretty cool (though loud). The unit is light weight and smart enough to retract when not being powered. Keep an eye out :)
+Rodeo Bikes Friction has one huge advantage... You can pull it up and eliminate all parasitic drag from the bike.
Don't be a chump for trump.
