Super 73 Good For Commuting?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- This week I tested the Super 73 electric bike on a 17 mile commute across London to see if it was possible or a good idea to use this bike as a daily commuter ride.
Thanks to our local rider Scott for the loan of the bike.

⚡ *Great to see you back on an eBike!* ⚡
I really like the Zooz bikes personally cos I love the BMX look.
Going to have more bikes on soon, love mobing round the city on them :)
@@TimWoodVlog I'm lookin at a few cos of the stupidness goin on with the occasional eboard crackdowns on streets and trains 😭 baaad feelin it will get worse once they legislate eScooters to super low power
@@eBoard3R looks like the scooter trials are going in to 2024 now so I think bikes are the answer for a while
With a better controller ideally 25-45amps you’ll get more out of the motor. Now if you also go one up to 52v with a new controller you’ll get even more! You have to pick which controller and amps because if you pick one fit for 48/52v you shouldn’t try a 60/72v battery on it.
Also get a throttle. I know around 20-30 super73 riders in London and we have the throttle haha. It’s a game changer. Police don’t bother with throttle unless you are acting up and speeding!
Bout time my man it's been a year so i think you may have forgot some things about the bike. There is no 250W version all S2 / R / RX are 1200W with a peak of 2000W. Mode 1 is UK limits 250W 15MPH / mode 2 750w 20mph / mode 3 1200W 25-30 mph / mode 4 1200-2000W 30-32mph this is the only mode the throttle works in the super 73 APP opens up the modes. All 4 modes have 4 levels of assist so there are 16 assist levels. Mode 1 & 2 are a bit hard to get going in any assist level as you say fine once moving. Mode 3 assist 3 is the sweet spot easy to pull away. Mode 4 on the throttle & it's a 30mph electric scooter that you ghost pedal to look like you're putting some effort in I fitted the throttle a month later.
Thanks for the updated info 👍 loved the bike but 250w on that heavy beast is hard work 😂
Wow! I am actually shocked that the uk version is capped on the speed and no throttle. So I actually looked into one of these during 2020. I can see what you mean by stopping it’s a chore to get to speed again.
That’s a bummer. I wonder what it would of been like on a steep incline man. 🤔
Great video as always Tim
He's wrong you can change your speed on the app
Lol why would you pay all that money and ride this bike on legal mode. Grow some balls and ride unlimited mode with a throttle. Going 30 mph is a blast with these bikes.
Litterly 😂 he paid the same as a moped and goes 15mph can get a cheap road bike for 100£ on gun tree and do the same speed
Been riding my bike for 5 months as a commute an it’s the best! The super 73 s2 for 20 miles a day !
Are you using the 250W version? I would happily commute on the bigger version but found the 250 a little tiring with all the stopping I had to do with the amount of traffic lights here
I like the idea of the super 73 but doesn’t look as fun as a board or EUC but I’ve only tried a few E-bikes
It's a fun casual cruiser for sure but I do like my board more too 😁
I’d love to try a super 73 but for someone who lives in a flat it’s just not practical
