- 38mph mid-drive carbon fiber eBike!
nireeka.com/co...
Today I unbox an electric e-Bike that goes insanely fast and looks AMAZING. This is a Nireeka Prime mid-drive, carbon-fiber e-bike with front suspension, a 17.5ah battery pack, and lots of other insane specs.
The bike is fantastic.But you shouldnt mis lead people. What your advertising is not $2500, your looking more at $3500 for a basic package. You shouldnt be advertising saying its $2500. You have custom suspension extra for the 48v battery, extra for the 1000 wt motor, extra for the colour display, extra for the suspension fork, 2 extra upgrades on the drive train.. extra for the carbon fibre handle bar, extra for the carbon sports seat post, extra for the jumbo tyres.
Great bike though.
What was the freight cost to Oz…..
Hes in he US and its USD on the website, so almost double that in AUD, they probably don’t ship to Australia
Yes yes yes and yes 4,000 or 4,300 for dis bike
@@keithwhittaker8741 it was 25o pound for delivery uk and if ur in eu ur getn duff version because of uk law the motor is only able do the 25kph
I agree he is full of shit.
For anyone wondering, I just spec'd out the prime model to whats in the video. With all the carbon fiber extras and the big LCD screen and upgraded discs and wheels the bike is priced at $4300 now.
Years ago I rode a motorcycle. I took the required safety course and the instructor explained to us that a human head behaved pretty much the same as a watermelon on impact with imovable objects, like curbs. He said your head hitting a curb at 30 mph will do what a watermelon hitting a curb at 30 mph would do. I guess that’s why some people refer to their heads as their melons.
I always referred to mine as a nugget! But many have called me cantaloupe head!
I can break a watermelon by punching it, lol. It definitely takes way more force and speed to break a skull.
@@Jake-bt3fc oooo big man sorryy watermelons don’t hit back tho 🤪
@@ihavetowait90daystochangem74 You don't need to be strong to break a watermelon. That's my entire point, genius. Even you could do it with your weak little pencil arms.
@@Jake-bt3fc I think it's a little different when you punch a skull with your fist moving at 30 mph and made of concrete.
I'm kinda feel a bit queasy from my upgraded battery purchase for my Bosch mid drive HaiBike xdurorx29r. $1050 with tax for the battery upgrade, stock was $750+... sure would be extra sweet if that bad boy was belt drive! I get 65 miles on economy, 27 miles on turbo. No throttle though. E biking has helped bring me back to better health. 80 pounds gone, 20 more to go. 5500 miles in 3 1/2 years later. New sub, thanks!
Damm it… so, the lower specs that are everything half of what this have cost $2,500. While the one that he have in the video is over $4,000
yeah, such a tease right? I was interested at $2,500 but once I specced it out, it was over $4k...
Max spec is 2850 for me. What are u talking about?
@@fackerhidonbush8420 Just checked: max spec is $4,295. What are YOU talking about.
@@fackerhidonbush8420 lol base 2500$ how max spec 2850 lol

@@tom.in.barcelona you are right, i was seeing only the motor and the battey upgrades, not the others. Some upgrades are useless or overpriced. 3k is worth, more, i wouldnt say
Use the helmet man… you wont be building any dream when u have a flat half head
& yet that hasn’t happened.
@@mickvonbornemann3824 but it could🤷🏿♂️🚵🏿♂️🤘🏿
@@kmancrx but a. Helmet will make absolutely no difference if he gets bowled over by a truck doing 70mph other than a false sense of security. Where as at under 25kph where most bicyclists spend something like 90% of the time the effects of any crash are just scratches or if going faster a broken collarbone which a helmet won’t help. Fact is helmets laws have been shown to be bad for health because whenever they’ve been introduced they cut bicycling rates by 40%. This is especially the case with woman who don’t want helmets fucking with their fancy hair dos.
@@mickvonbornemann3824 That was kind of an elementary school maturity answer. I'm an avid rider and it is a special form of fantastical thinking to imagine that you'll ride and forever never fall and that at least on one of those falls that your head won't get the worst of it. Well a head not worth protecting speaks loads about the value of that head aye?
@@Thetailofthetrident I’ve been riding bicycles for 50 odd years & all I’ve gotten are scratches & basically untreatable broken collarbones. Btw plenty of scientific studies have been done showing bicycle helmets don’t pan out - just about every jurisdiction that’s introduced enforced bicycle helmet laws has had a 40% cut in cycling rates the same year, making the laws bad for people’s health. Plus as most cyclists spend 90% of their cycling under 25kph meaning if the cyclist stacks his bike it just prevents scratches. While it give false sense of security because it will make bugger all difference if the bicyclist is bowled over by a motorised vehicle. Also by far the most common serious injuries bicyclists get are broken collarbones & helmets don’t help there. Bicycle helmet laws also fail cost benefit tests. You go to the continent & other than the very odd rarity virtually the only people wearing bicycle helmets are tourists & expats from the English speaking world. Yet with higher cycling rates, hospitalisation rates for cyclists are less & life expectancies are higher in general.
Btw have you noticed that accident rates in the grand tours are way higher since helmets were made compulsory in UCI road racing in 2003? Plus serious injuries have gone up not down too.
"This isn't a biased review"
Later in review

"This bike is now 2500$ on sale. Might get more expensive"
"2500$ sale"

a narrower higher pressure tire would probably add another 5 to ten MPH due to lower rolling friction .. the fat tires look cool but with efficiency loss being the price of coolness
Best I could tell the one they shipped you was close to $3800, not $2500
Yep! Looked through their website and saw it for $2500 then shot this video forgetting it was upgraded
For 2500 I said yeah I was getting ready to pull the trigger and buy that bad boy but then reality sunk in and all the upgrades it was close to $5,000😫🖕

His "reviews" are full of casual misinformation for shady here today, gone tomorrow brands who are basically paying him to sell.
That's why they are "tests" not so much "reviews"
Nireeka has been around "officially" since 2018...been around the block a little while
I ageee but it’s still a cool bike, however I built an Ebike that does 25mph for under £300
@@TheInja yeah but you’re not the manufacturer. A 3rd party is assumed to be unbiased. You are well aware of this. By you not making it clear that you are biased towards the manufacturer, you are being dishonest.
Stop selling your integrity for a couple bucks, and grow a pair. For every person who thinks you’re a honest person to take ebike advice from, there’s 5 people who see right through it. If you removed your bias and built your channel through honesty, you might one day grow enough that you can just buy the ebikes and then sell them.
Did you know that doug demuro buys his own plane tickets and hotels when he’s invited to manufacturer events? He does that because he knows favors will create bias. All he’s got in this world is his balls and his word, and he don't break 'em for no one.
@@user-yq6ov6ow7l daddy Doug also makes a couple million per year on UA-cam. If you think I'm biased, watch all the other "reviews" I do where I tell you not to buy their product because it's not worth the money (even though they sent me bikes and paid me for it). I upload these videos without approval (unlike the actual biased channels).
I think e-bikes are here to stay now. They sure have come a long way! Nice review!
Shaun, they sure are, 5yrs ago I bought a Cyclamatic Powerplus, 24v,250w brushless hub motor, 6speed,front suspension only, weighed 26kg, was hell if battery went flat. Never had so much fun, loved it, best £600 I ever spent, here in the UK in Yorkshire where I live nobody at all had an e-bike, the fun I had with car drivers "WTF?!?!!!!" looks as I whizzed along not even peddling was ace!!!! - Now I'm seeing kids on sur-rons and e-scooters on a daily basis. Back then that bike was the business and everyone I let have a go absolutely loved it. Always amazed me how they took soooo long for ppl here in the UK to get into e-bikes.
You ain't seen nothing yet, the oil companies suppressed ebikes and cars for over a century, we got alot of catching up to do. If they can find away to mass produce carbon nano tube then the power to weight ratio will be seriously AWESOME 😎💪🇬🇧👍
@@ianmangham4570 They didn't really *suppress* either, at least not for most of that time, and not at all for E-bikes. E-cars did well early on in cities when you bought petrol at the *pharmacist's* (cars ran on white gas, what we'd know as Colman fuel now). However, gas became easier to get than reliable electricity and lead-acid batteries are terrible for EVs. Hence the gas car (and even the steam car) overtook the electric car.
E-bikes have been around since the late 90s. But Lead Batteries are heavy, which hurts bikes even more. They've only *really* become practical with lithium ion, and they're still painfully slow and expensive compared to the gasbike counterparts. my TSDZ2 cost me $360, and makes 768 watts. A Zeda 100 makes 2,250, and you can make even more with a performance package with the whole thing under 300. Not counting the battery I needed to buy (10A@48v, the same as this bikes smaller size, that was an extra $180)
The only thing an E-Bike really does let you do unarguably better is break traffic laws, because you're quiet and not drawing attention to yourself.
@@DFX2KX Nah

I'm old. I used to ride a sachs moped in the early 80's to do my paper routes. (i had several). The sachs would max out at 30 mph. I'm sure a two stoke tuner could have fixed that but I never looked into it.
This thing is equal to it and much lighter. The sachs would have the edge on feeling like a motorbike.
After all that was over. I moved back home to the UK and started riding actual motorcycles. I''m back in the states again for certain reasons and I'm very interested in e bikes.

This reviewer is a big fake !
I've been following this bike for some time now. They have four different models now and this is their least expensive. Some reviews on UA-cam are very critical of the bike chain constantly coming off, and some bad customer service. But overall it is very reliable and well made. Being in control of that many components on your bike build, before it even gets to you, is very convenient and they do honor warranties very well from what I've seen. Currently looking at the Ristretto bikes...works of art too!
I chose against mid drive because it does wear out the chain faster--750 watts is equal to a pro biker like lance armstrong--so being able to put that power down daily has an effect and in races they changed chains like every 500 miles--and a motor can put out the max output anytime you get on it.
@@khronin sondors Rockstar comes with a stainless steel chain for that reason. looks pretty cool to. plus no rust
@@khronin Has any racer tried belts on a mid-drive? Maybe belts could last longer, but until me or someone tries it i won't know real world effects of trying it.
WRONG. This is not their least expensive. This is their most expensive model at $4000. I know it says 2500 in the title, but i just checked the customization page and the stuff that are in the video are not for free, you have to pay extra on alot of the modules that would result in the crazy performance of this ebike. The 2500 is too good to be true. Most likely this guy is unknowingly shilling because the china manufacture told him it was for 2500, so he just assume this bike is for 2500. And now people be dupe into thinking they getting the fast speedy bike, with all those extra such as colored panels. The 2500 doesnt include any of those extra. Its the very barebone, slower vewrsio
@@khronin Hub drive would be best.
The Bafang 1000w motor peaks at 1750 continously with a 52v battery. It is wonderful. I've hit 32mph on my homemade bike in pas1 and I don't need to go any faster.
pas 1 my ass.
@@3dkiller 🤣
for 1000 watt they are asking $200 extra , plus $300 shipping cost and lead time is almost 3 months , forget about it
Wish we could see a base model review on this. The one you looked at is like 1500 more
That model looks closer to 3.5k but still seems like a decent value for all you get with that bike. I will put it on my short list of next bikes when I'm ready to go to a mid drive carbon fiber bike.
Problem carbon winter season. Very fluffy. See if there is a proper manufacture with a special glue that can withstand a height of minus degrees. The glue is very good at withstanding temperature fluctuations. Exposure glue is designed for temperature fluctuations.
The bike full spec like that one is $4000+ not including the helmet and backpack.
Total Price: $4216
Base Price: $2499
Equipment Price: $1717
@bdShepherd I clicked every available upgrade option and could only get the price to 3k? Did they remove a bunch of equipment choices? Paint +199, Motor +99, Battery +249, Frame size No change.

Outfitted like the bike they sent you, the price will be over $4,000 USD shipped. Owners who aren't reviewers often report 8 month delays between paying in full and receiving the bike.

Yeah I saw that. I got too excited when I saw the sale and started shooting the video about it. 😅
@@TheInja They have a link on there main site stating the specs of the bike at what you have (price as well posted ) but when you click on the BUY NOW link it takes you to a configuration tool and then the reality sets in and with your specs and extras it cost over $5000.00 + Shipping so next time you do a video on a bike Maybe you should ACTUALLY REVIEW it and not CLICK BAIT people because you SOLD YOUR SOLE for a bike what a looser
If you add all the options (which it appears this bike has) the price is ~$4100. ($2500 is the very basic model, no upgrades... No carbon seat, no carbon handlebars, half the wattage motor, half the output battery, cheaper hub, on and on...). Still, it's a pretty nice eBike for $2500, and even with the upgrades to a $4000 bike, it's not a bad deal at all - IF you are ok with having a $4K ebike that takes 4 months to get from China.... And good luck on parts/service if you need it!
How was the ride comfort? It didn't come with rear shocks.
The front shocks were kind of small/lower quality.
Really would like to see you going up some serious dirt hills or concrete extremely steep hill.
Oooo
I second this, I have a different ebike and I'm looking to upgrade but the fact it doesn't wheelie and max output seems to be 1000w I'm a little doubtful on the top speeds and power it says it has.
@@CHASEJIMMYMN It does actually: ua-cam.com/video/-tE7RC70T2A/v-deo.html
I’m really looking forward to buy one ebike. Is this the one that I should get? I mean for the price, max speed, range, looks, etc. this one seems the best option out there… any suggestions?
No don’t get this one . I recommend you get a onyx, super-73 , surron, or a Monday motor bike
@bob bobber what are you looking for? Speed? Fun? Reliable?
Do more research and find out exactly what you are going to do with the bike. And when u find it how will u transport it if you plan on taking it places with your car/truck. And when you start spending cash in the $1500+ range be sure you are getting what u want. Having "fomo" from not getting what you want sucks and buyers remorse is also a shitty feeling. Good luck 👍
I'm looking at the $1700 NCM Moscow Plus from Leon Cycles or the $2500 Crosscurrent X from Juiced Bikes. Both are killer values.
At their respective prices, the *Moscow Plus* sports a 768Wh battery and German motor rated at 500W sustained/750W peak while the *Crosscurrent X* includes a 990Wh+ battery and a Bafang motor rated at 750W sustained/1300W peak. Both have adequate suspension for light trails as well.
@Tobias Cortez which one?
I Just purchased the Gazelle Ultimate 380 + with the Bosch 250 watt mid drive with a gates belt drive, CVT, front suspension.
New $4,700. I purchased slightly used with 93 miles for $3,100.
There is no throttle but I can easily go 28 mph without breaking a sweat.
Any faster and I cannot use the bike paths.
For those of you don't know what carbon fiber is it is a revolutionary New concept material it's strong and light
EBikes would be great here in Japan because even cars only go about 40ish miles per hour, and everything is usually so close, running your bike at around 20ish mph would feel like flying.
fully loaded the bike costs more then $4000. 2500 is for base.... like rock base.
LOL... i was also ready to pull the trigger as i was looking at suron's but bleh... i guess i go back looking at surons..
Finally somebody reviewed this bike! I was planning to buy it since last year, but didn’t want to get it without a review. Thank you for the helpful info! 👍🏻
Hey buddy!! Did you end up buying it?
I’m kinda curious about the outfit of choice, more specifically the top...what’s with the DIY tank top?
Incredible deal especially with all the extras. But sorry the styling is not for me. Looks like it should have full suspension the way the frames designed but doesn’t. Honestly if I want to go that fast I’ll jump on my motorcycle.
Nice looking bike, although the fat tires may act to cushion the ride, I think nothing beats a full suspension.
cant imagine a bike with both 😍
I priced my bike out and it was over 4K after all the upgrades I added....
I honestly liked it when the rice burner took off 😂😂😂😂
"This was essentially a maxed out "Stress Test". No pedalling, Full throttle, for as long as the would sustain it" at 8:53 is one sentence indeed. I think you forgot the word battery between 'the' and 'would'. Other than that the video was fantastic. Love the energy.
Great review! Are the handlebars and wheels easily detachable? Would it disassemble and fit in the backseat of a car for travel? Thanks!
That bike optioned out is well over 4k would be cool if you could have tested a base model but I still want one lol

Like freak me out man It's freaking incredible and it's just freaking amazing and I'm just so freaked out that you freaking made this freaking video
I like the rake in the front. It does look like a Cafe bike crossed with a mountain bike if the had a baby I think this bike would be the outcome. I would have liked to see a headlight and a tail light. But that's just me. Thanks again for all you bring to this channel. Stay safe out there and keep all this great content coming on both inja channels.

They do have an option for a brake light. Not a headlight though but with all the room you have on the bars it would be a perfect place to customize
@@janespivey8315 I agree but I also think at that price point it should be included and it's not even an option. Again it's a great bike for the price just my opinion is all.

Which one is better, the ariel Grizzly or the nireeka prime?
BEST EBIKE VIDEO I’ve seen hands down can’t wait to see more
How about the Crosscurrent X from Juiced Bikes or the Sondors Metacycle?
The former is the only sub-$2500 ebike I know with a 52V 990Wh+ battery and a motor rated at 750W sustained/1300W peak while the latter is a $5000 electric motorcycle with a 4,000Wh battery that can go 80MPH.
I have 2 self-build hub motor ebikes that work great. I definitely want the Metacycle in a year or 2 when I am ready to buy a full helmet and gear as well. In the mean time I want to get 1 or 2 more ebikes to take them on the local trails when friends come over. All 3 friends I have gone out with have loved them. The Crosscurrent X is too slow to compare to this Nireeka. The Hyperscorpion is slower but has more features for the same price. So a tradeoff. When I looked at Nireeka website you could do full spec for $2850. For a 38mph ebike that's about the best deal right now. At least if you want to go over 30mph without a motorcycle license or insurance.
Those are totally different styles of bikes.
I started upgrading all the parts on the link to match what you have full spec and I got to 3500 before I stopped but it was claiming 38mph and 52 mile range with the bigger battery/motor. I could actually probably ride to work on it except for the short jaunt I usually take on the freeway. Most of the streets here are 30mph now so could do surface streets and keep up with traffic fine.
Cool they keep sending cool things to you free to test and us to see even if we can't afford it. 👍

I own this bike. They have a few different models. This is the Prime. There’s a TON of options too. (If you scroll your finger to the left inside the add-ons section on their website , it’ll reveal the rest of the options). This bike comes without front suspension as standard. Suspension is an available add on.
@the inja - The bike you tested without fenders is $3762. The $2500 bike has no suspension, 10Ah battery & 750 watt motor which only goes 26 mph / 25 miles max.
Cool bike, I went to the sight. (very easy to navigate) But the $2400 price is for a base (no upgrade) bike with a 26 mph limit. Your bike when I built it with your spec's was over $3500. Still I like the site, and they have four other models to build as one would like. Very nice indeed.

Most e-bikes have there MPH limited so the manufacturers can sell to buyers who then can operate within the numerous state laws regarding requirements to operate bikes on the road. If an e-bike, or motorcycle, can travel over 20 (or 25 mph depending on the state) the bike would no longer be deemed recreational and would then require a "motorcycle" or operators license, special testing to obtain the license, it would also require headlights, brake lights, turn signals and require other safety testing or measures to be deemed safe to operate on the streets, it would require registration, a license plate and bi-annual inspections....etc. So that is the reason most manufacturers keep the speed 25 mph and under. (maybe I stated the obvious)
This guy is aiming for the Darwin Award!

Put a 50amp hour battery in that widening the body and adding like 30-40 lbs to the weight should get you 60 miles at 30-35 mph. Then I would be interested.
So it would be helpful to know how much it weighed, and if you hear any of that pinging sound that carbon fiber wheels make.
so quiet and stealthy good for late night cruising 😎
I like that it has the hydraulic brakes with cutoffs. I'm also surprised that until you really get into the top speed, my TSDZ2 swap would almost hang with it. Not as clean, but WAY cheaper.
Wonder if they left the Befang light circuits intact somewhere so you can wire up and control a headlight/taillight.
Yeah they have to be in-tact unless they butchered stuff.
@@robcoastalga8279 I've seen stranger things done to off-brand E-bikes. most likely would have cut the wires real short if they did, so it'd be a job to connect them anyway.
Hi Inja...loved your review. However, would you be willing to make a video with someone of average height riding it at full speed? Say like 5'9" 170lbs?? And on throttle only. I have a temporarily locked right leg so I need to have it stretched the whole time. That would help me greatly on my purchasing decision. Thank you for your educational opinions.
why are the front forks so vertical?
I'm gonna buy this.. bit if u hit a pothole. shes gonna go tincup city.. buddy.
thanks for the vid.
Great video !! 💥💯
omg just saw the video of you guys making it yourself.
My deepest respect .
Is it for sale ? Can you make a new one ?
IF I had sent a bike to a guy to do a review and he didn't know the model number and he got the price wrong by almost 40%, while the review otherwise is good-I would be pretty pissed off. I like the reviews you do-but for an intelligent guy you come across as really unprofessional.
Clearly he got paid to talk it up and intentionally mislead. Reviewers like him are not thorough, they are to convince a certain group of people that this bike is legit, get them to the website and start "building" their own bike.
Sounds pretty harsh
Just found this video. Great video! I agree with some of the comments below that the bike you tested has all the bells and whistles at a premium price, (not the $2500). Also, I would have really liked to have seen it tested on some trails instead of just paved roads.... After all, it is a mountain bike with the fattie tires.
100% not allowed on mtb trails.
1. this is not a mountain bike
2. Definitely not allowed
Why isn’t this allowed on mtb trails? It’s basically a mountain bike with a battery pack inside?
This bike as configured is north of $4k, I stopped the configuration before it ended. So no tellling how expensive this got. Pedal AWD, Lyric Graffiti, Grizzly bikes have dual motors (faster), dual batteries (more range), stronger motors (uphil + 0-60 times), etc all for under $3500.
@@cTron417 also 100% not legal on bike paths, streets, or anywhere else.
I like that this is light for power and size and a good half way between dirt bike and street bike. It would make it up a steep paved hill I know and then tackle a mile of dirt road. It looks small for a large bike. How tall are you? It is longer in geometry making it more of a street bike that won't pop wheelies. The handle bars look skimpy.
Disappointing that a $600.00 delivery fee (California,USA ) and the true specked out price was $3903.00 plus $600 .00 delivery so now it’s a $4500.00 bike so yea it should
say $4500.00 not $2500.00 bike .
I wonder how much the range would increase if you changed those obviously off road designed tyres for road tyres? You can feel the difference with pedal power considerably, so surely that would make a significant difference.
Awesome bike, awesome video. Btw, I think the top speed you put in settings of 60 is in km…that would equate to 37-38mph you achieved.
Hey idk if you’ve been on their website but they are also offering a 1500watt motor now as well! I can’t even imagine the specs on that lol has to go atleast 45-50
Nice bike I would buy this I just would like to have some fenders tho for those days when it rains..
This video actually seems to do the bike justice. I want one but after my 60v scooter craps out on me
Build your own, cheaper lighter more powerful
Thanks for the honest review. I ordered a sondors madmod Cafe 9 months ago and now I'm rethinking if I should cancel that and get this one. The Cafe won't ship anytime soon so I'm dying to get on a bike and this may be it.
Just get a sur ron
@@dennisavsh3850 it's too small
I WOULD WAIT FOR THE SONDORS THIS GUY LIES TO YOU ABOUT THE ACTUAL COST OF THE BIKE ITS WAY OVER 4K + CLOSER TO 5K WITH THE EXTRAS HE HAS AND SOLD HIS SOLE TO GET
@@pharrohku5922 i can't say he sold his soul but yes the cost is much higher. Plus I paid $1500 for the madmods, it is now $2600. Even though I won't have it probably till next summer, I'm making money without having sit on it once. Will keep waiting for the Cafe for now
I'm so glad I did not order the Sondors Mad Mod. Go to ebikenoob UA-cam channel and check out his thoughts.
I would pin strip the white body line of frame in black
I have upgraded mine with 50t front chainring(takes time and paitience and ali express to find all parts and dial in smooth shifting)brake sensors(built in sensor levers with shimano calipers no double tape crap)shift sensors, supension seat, dual battery splitter(havent got new battery yet)
wattwagons x1 controller upgrade would make it perfection but I don't have the $ to dish out
It's amazing fun
I am currently doing wiring for headlights
and tailights with a direct motor connection!
Jasper you have the nireeka prime with the 50t chainring as well???
@@brucevous1 yup
@@poopordie i ordered the prime myself and it's in shipment. do you have Instagram by any chance for i may see a pic please? What's the largest chainring you think i can install on the prime?
Where did you buy the dual battery splitter for your prime??
@@brucevous1 wattwagons
Great video and really informative, thanks. You should use your helmet as even the most experienced riders can crash! #voiceofexperience
Would like the Homie full suspension frame, but with the componants from the Prime. Shame that the customisation doesnt allow for that to happen. Otherwise I might have found my dream E-bike. P.s. Being in U.K. I was hoping to buy everything all at once and in the box near ready to go. Save on the postage and all that :)
You can upgrade the homie to have nearly all of the same components as the Prime (other than the fat tires and 1000w motor).
Be sure to scroll your finger to the left inside of the add-on section to reveal the rest of the add on options. There’s a ton
Does it have pedal assist mode? Also, I’m 6’3”, could the handle bar be raised for a more comfortable upright position for the rider?
Great Video. I just received my Prime. Two questions, how did you fill the air forks? It looks like only one leg holds air, what is in the other leg spring/oil? Thanks
In China, riding an electric bicycle is more convenient than driving, because it is too crowded everywhere in China, there is a large population and every family has a car, so if I don't go far, I like riding an electric bicycle.But China's electric bicycles look like this.
I have the Ariel Rider looks like they have the same top speed but the Ariels a rocket ship compared to that. Plus the Ariel grizzly has 2 batteries . I've seen reviews that got a full throttle range test of 45 miles, which I've yet to test. In my opinion if you have the extra grand the grizzly will be so much more fun ... The acceleration is just insane. I literally take sporty cars off the line.
Yeah, I already reviewed the Grizzly! Fun bike! But overall I would take this one out more than the grizzly for the styling and it being a super fun ride, as well! Very different experience but both very fun.
I beat a Harley in a block race, 2000 watt ebike..
Hello brother, thanks for your info and reviews on the equipment that you test. I may have missed it but have you tested the Jackrabbit ebike/escooter? I would love to hear your opinion on that unit. Thamks for all you do.
Bike helmets saved so many people here in Australia, please wear it as this bike goes fast and your head is worthwhile keeping. I was saved on a motorbike once wearing a full face helmet.
@ $4,295 might as well buy a motorcycle lol
Totally agree!
Totally agree. I have a motorbike and a push bike and now I want a eBike. Irr...too many toys! However I live to explore and play with toys.
Well, for close to $4000 it's certainly _better_ be a nice ride, though to be fair the 2500 version doesn't look too bad either. Seems like you'd be getting a pretty premium bike either way, certainly a cooler looking bike than the Ariel (unless you're into that style of Ebike,) much more modern sport bike style. Lower end is probably about the same speed as the cafe racer which also looked "retro cool," but I can see how the handle bar thing would get on a taller person's nerves. it'd be interesting to see just how much the lower end version compromises, but I doubt they're going to send you a second despite the glowing review.
Absolutely
Maxed out, with a pearl colour (199 dollar extra), with biggest battery, carbon fiber, and biggest battery, and some accessories, it'll be 4000 dollars. At the lowest spec without accessories it'll be (2500 dollars).
There are a lot of premium e-bikes for sure and 4000 bucks does sound a lot but they can sure go a lot higher, so it does feel reasonable for what you get, big battery, big quality motor and quality mechanical parts and it looks cool.
Would be cool if they offered slicks as well, as an accessory extra, purely road tires, a bit more efficient if you only want to ride it on the street.
i have to think that a duel tread tire (smooth center /knobby outer) would increase the range quiet a bit
