  • I'm just your basic everyday electric bike enthusiast. Hopefully, I can get a real rider for my next video. But enjoy this overview of my new 2021 Hi-Power Cycles Revolution!
    This is my personal bike.
    LINK TO THE BIKE:

    This 90lb 8kw beast is definitely the most fined tuned Electric Bikes I've ever mob with. Did I mention it can go for 100 miles on one charge?
    The rack is called a 1UP USA Superduty Double.
    I do not own this music.

    hiya bike looks awesome, which model crystalyte motor are they using for this model, crystalyte have some sweet motors now over 40 mph on only 48 volts ,bump them up to 84 volts with 150 amps and is whole new ball game.

    • @ErikKibbee
      @ErikKibbee  2 роки тому +1

      Hey thanks! The motor is actually a Hi-Power Cycles exclusive. It’s considered a high speed motor and at 48v, 2kw it’ll hit 40MPH no problem. I’m running it with a 86v (96.6v max) battery at 90a and it’s insane. I can’t imagine 150a!

      Calling them and leaving a VM is the best way to get ahold of them. Emails take a little bit but they’ve always been good on the phone.

      We can get same exact X Model version for under $10k with even better bells and whistles including Fox 40/X2 suspension, 8KW hub motor that peaks at an insane 20+ KW peak power. However, if you want a mountain goat, then our 72V version will climb anything short of a vertical wall with an insane 5KW of battery pack (72V70AH), all for $1000s less than HPC! :)

      E-Bikes are allowed anywhere regular pedal bikes are and I'm always courteous of pedestrians and other regular bicycles.
