Chris Northover: Exploring the Rugged Countryside on an OSET 24.0
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- As a child Chris Northover loved riding his motorcycle, the sound of an engine still sends a shiver down his spine. But Chris has found a new love, the OSET 24.0.
The bike is lightweight, tough and with enough power to get you up the side of a mountain, it’s fun pure and simple. From whistling through a cave, to exploring the countryside you’re greeted with a smile by everyone you come across, often followed by a list of excited questions about the bike itself.

A few years back I would've thought that this was the Devil, but actually it's not a bad idea now...
Always wonder what is wrong with the people that give a thumbs down on a video like this. Do they just simply hate the world as it is and can not find any positive in life...
Yes. It seems like it's exactly that.... It's quite sad really.
Exactly what i was thinking. Sad, pathetic people
I have nothing against this bike but the people who gave a thumbs down probably DO love the world as it is. Hence the thumbs down.
You may be the one looking at it backwards.
When we watched your video over one year ago it inspired me to buy an Oset for my son and myself to play on. It has proven to be an amazing purchase, helped us become more capable on both the Oset and dirt bikes, along with creating our on UA-cam channel, showing our adventures as a father and son, enjoying being out in the fresh air having fun.
Looking at doing the same, my lad rides a electric dirt bike atm but its just a starter 500w thing, how have you found days out? riding time? do you run with spare batteries for full days?
Thinking of a oset 24 for myself and a 16 for my son whos 6
@@SensiVybz we just use the one battery and the two to three hours seems to be enough for what we do. Im you are using like a mountain bike and flat out, then one hour max. We just find an area and make a time trial course or jump play area. All good fun and we have lots of videos withe our time on the Oset on our channel.
@@christieclanadventures6828 Thanks pal, I take it yours isnt on the boosted battery kits? I think ours will get used mainly for trail riding so i reckon 3-4 hours is minimum we would need
Ive read of people getting 6-8 hours out of the boosted bats though or worst case keep a few charged spare bats with us
Amen! I ride my Sur Ron with my 4yo on my lap through neighborhood parks, people smiling and waving. Then I go rip it up a mountain with my buddy on his KTM. Electric is the best of both worlds.
Ive had to approach a trials biker up a mountain in scotland not harming anyone on his two stroke gas gas 280 he was shitting bricks and hugging the rocks with his bike tucked under a ledge trying to stay out of my sight he was red faced when i approached him and told him he should check out electric motion ,LMX or osset ive been all over on my lmx without incident the only person to question me funnily enough was the local idiot of duty policeman in ballahoulish
As I said before. My 7 month old grand daughter Abigail Elizabeth was murdered over 2 years ago in àn unregistered daycare center on the US military base in Hawaii where my family & I live. The news article wad published many times remember me. Lisa baker. These things happen now in the USA because
What can I say? I will never return to southeast Asia. It's all crawling with well educated terrorists.
Amazing, I’ve just ordered my oset txp24 and I can’t wait ! I have a husky 450fe and I love it but all the maintenance and noise limit the fun, this looks like just what I’m after I’m excited 😊👏🏼
Brilliant, that battery pickup at the local store. Nice nod to electric as a fuel even though I imagine we will be plugging in versus swapping batteries.
NIO have created a battery swap system and have it wideley used in china and now moving to europe, quick switch batterys is the only way we will go i reckon
@@SensiVybz I am aware, it's neat of them to have done so. But there are trade offs to all options.
Frankly, just having a higher capacity could increase the charge rate enough for most use cases on long road trips. The alternative of having swap stations all along all road trip paths is a ton of capital cost versus DCFC at 200++kW.
But doing the same for a bike with a battery you can carry and leave an extra at the local friendly general store is brilliant.
Excellent! Thanks!
Fantastic video! thank you!!
Great video. Seems to be the best bike at the best price point from what I can find. Looking to own one soon.
I have one
How amusing. It is produced by Benzina (Italian for petrol) Films!
Yes, we may need to re-visit our company name!
I have one
Silent running, no smell of diesel - starts pickup :)
Lol it dosen t run in diesel
@@tylerhawk1727 thats why he said no smell of diesel
@@penisman4144 what crossers would smell of diesel? or any motorbikes for that matter haha
My son got a 20r for his Christmas and now I see what it can do I am thinking about the 24r for my self
Do it 🤘🏻
Great concept, but by no means a replacement. Some of us live for competitive advantage and live to race! Mx will never die, and neither will the 2 smokers. Long live mx and long live choice!
Great video, thank you.
Bit mental watching you riding through caves were I live!
They’ve literally just bulked up an E mountain bike, and are selling it as a motorbike
TOM MOT That’s like saying a regular motorbike is a beefed up bike
Leonardhh4 no, because this bike is legitimately identical to an ebike with a larger battery
TOM MOT Apart from this doesn’t have pedals and doesn’t act anything like an ebike. Ebikes just assist you but this is the actual engine for the bike
Leonardhh4 the whole of the front end ( suspension forks and handlebars) are identical to a mountain bike and not much like a motorbike
Its a electric trials bike mate and ebike is an ebike and these bikes are hell of fun
Top stuff Chris (& Mr Tennant!).
Nicely done! Thanks!
The future is now.
For those that actually rode Trial motorcycles .... we all know that clutch is everything. Getting rid of it, and not being able to spin that motor for sudden clutch release .... man this is step back to stone-age. Get a real Trial and start learning basics.
Also ... you are not allow to ride EVERYWHERE you like with it. For obvious reasons like safety of others and for all "greee-folks" : you "damage the soil, grass, and precious roots" anyway with the TIRE not EXHAUST. Thumb-down :/.
Hi Chris was looking at the oset as a practice machine as I want to get back into trials riding.I have been told that’s they are for kids not adults and not to waste my money on one. The video seems to show me different so could you give me your honest opinion on the bike and what model you were riding? Thanks Steve 😊
@ 1:38 love them (electric bikes) but they certainly pollute the environment with caustic chemistry -Batteries-
The website says that the bike is two hundred pounds and he say that it is lightweight and effortlessly lifts it into the back of his truck
The website says it can carry a 200 pound person, the bike weighs 103 pounds.
Tf the sound and smell are the best fucking things
anyone else find the osets have a ridiculous all or nothing throttle? Anyone know how to balance this/ get a good map on the power settings?
Just wondering if you can reshoot the start with a Rivian R1T? 😋
super. I wonder what's the range with such difficult, steep slopes.
Hi, hard to give a definite range but we would say about 3 hours run time - all the details on this bike and the OSET range can be found here: www.osetbikes.com
Such a clean power source. I wonder how it's made.
It's either nuclear or coal power, the polar bears love it 👌🏻
Obviously, all he has to do is buy it from the Petrol Station. Simple as that....:)
Litium batteries in the 24
Above a certain power in the uk classed as motor vehicle ,without landowners permission you will jeopardise your licence?
@David David you sound like a right 🔔🔚
Hahaha they have to catch you first buddy! You sound like you have lived a great life rapped in cotton wool doing puzzles🧐us bikers are born to bike ride engine or electric name 1 person thats ever been hurt by a bike rider on a public path or woodland?? Please go and buy yourself a bike and enjoy life we aint hear for ever,dont try n spoil it for us who want to do the things we love!!! and by the way keep your dog mess tidy its not good for us RIDERS
Iv searched every website relating to this bike but no price so i baught a specialized levo the battery lasts all day in the woodland and it has pedals on it!
Buy an e mtb because uk laws are bs. This vid is an advert and like with most ads its all made up bs.
@@alphabravo675 Please see www.osetbikes.com for all the details on the bike
Cool, if the batteries are not as heavy, and will last longer, problem is you cant find parts for these bikes!
I, liked the video and subscribed
I wonder if it can be partially collapsed so I can fit it in my Tesla ;)
Lolol I wonder how much you lie to yourself everyday
@@afrobooty4641 eh?
I should have known this was going to be a commercial. Nothing against an electric bike but I would say most here in the US don't look at motorcycles as a primary source of pollution. Many enthusiasts won't be so willing to give up the sounds and smells as the guy in this video.
Land owners dislike the erosion and possible damage to their land more than pollution and the sounds of a bike(s) a mile from their house. Lol you would have startled those women you rode up on - at least with traditional bike they'd have heard you coming.
Electric toys are definitely the future
Interesting bike, bad parking in the layby
Petty your website is so full of pictures and graphics it becomes unusable because of the down load volumes!!,!
I have one of those mine is a oset
They really need to do something about the price..
it's appealing but the price is just stupid
Looking at a 16R and 24R for myself and my son, does anyone know what sort of real world battery life do you get? his current "funbikes" 500w lasts about an hour of trail riding but i want to try and get out for full days or atleast 3-4 hours riding?
Thanks people!
If you ain’t mixin gas you ain’t haulin ass.
ye, but what we all like is being at the bottom of a massive hill, and letting 26hp loose on it.... The 1.5hp of these things have a way to go yet. ......Good for plonkin around the garden though...... Also, like your iphone, the battery starts degrading after about 1000 cycles,, And they are mega bucks........ Can these be made road legal????
did you ride a motorbike because I rid one since I was 5 years old ?
I need one please I agree petrol are to be used where its just petrol bikes no people on foot 👍
Why no mention of price? How much please?
Nice bike and country side loved the video. How much is the bike and how long does the charge last and how long to charge back up.
👍👍👍🏴✌️
All the details on the bike and prices can be found here: www.osetbikes.com From flat to full charge takes around 6 hours.
Dont buy one
In 2021 the 24 sells for $4500 US. 3-4 hours of riding and 8-10 hours of charging.
Can you ride it on like a pathway
yeah
What happens when the battery runs out and you’re miles from home ? Same problem will emtb but atleast you have pedals to get home ! It’s all about battery range these days .
You buy a spare battery just like you'd take a petrol can with the old combustion engine
So what’s the range on a full battery ?
@@thesingingmolecatcher5461 no idea on this thing tbh I've got a similar e bike though it does about 53 miles tanking it I'd expect high 30s or mid 40 miles on this my two strokes drink petrol I only use my ebike now silent and the torque is unreal
That’s a lot more than I imagined, so with a spare in you pack you’d be sorted
@@0141star isn't the battery ridiculously heavy?
That’s just a chunky e bike
Ok, Vladimir Putin, whatever you say. Keep riding on that nuclear wave...
how is that even remotely chunky? it's slimmer than most trials bikes
I have a oset 20
Only problem being the huge price difference between a dirt bike and a E bike
They getting cheaper and cheaper every single year. If you can go the DIY route they are already dirt cheap.
Can I buy one
Dont do this it is the biggest waste of money ever
@@elitec2743 why is it
@@Emtbwebb because it doesnt really work. Its shit
How much ? And battery life ?
Waste of money
What is it cost and what is it cold
Dont buy one
i like to buy one for enduro cross practice, but how much is it?
Waste of money
@@elitec2743 not really
@@pissandcornflakes9119 it is
@@elitec2743 it's a good starter bike for people
@@pissandcornflakes9119 nope
At one with nature.
Yeah but how fast can that go ??
About 20mph.and that's pushing it. But it's a trials bike, not a race bike.
Closer to 30mph actually. Its pretty nippy with all the dials turned up.
looks pretty slow to me
It's a trials bike. Not about top end speed. It's a bout delivering instant torque from stand-still mainly, so that you can launch up rocks and other obstacles. I promise you it will throw you right over the back if you wrap the throttle from stand still.
@@markmccall6273 couldn't have said it better myself
1. it’s a trials bike not a dirt bike 2. Still uses fuels to make the electricity 3. They are heavy as hell
it depends on where you live. In most contries, electricity is more and more produced by greener solutions. By the way electric motors are greener than petrol motors as these ones looses 70% of energy in heat.
Is not heavy
Wrong! The vast percentage of global electricity is produced from burning fossil fuels, hydroelectric dams and nuclear.
@@consumerofstuff7854Are you kidding? The goal is to produce electricity from the renewable sources. Burning fossils to generate electricity shall be use only for short pic needs. Where are you from? USA? The best is that even with producing electricity with fossils, the overall efficiency is better due to the efficiency of the power plant and the efficiency of the electric motors and the no need of energy transport thanks to the networks.
50% if the electricity in my country is hydro or wind. So it's far better than using petrol here anyway.
3.3k though :(
When you consider a modern 4-stroke trials bike is about 8K, doesn't seem so bad though???
Benzina films? Seriously? XDDDD
[Benzina = Gasolina(spanish) = Gasoline(english) ]
I bet the police would still confiscate it
Have to catch ya buddy police vs electric bike
Good youtube video for somone out there would get 4 million views 🤣🤣🤣
Che Figata
You look a little like Chris northover. Obviously you are not Chris northover
Its basically q bicycle tho
Now i have plenty of money for my essentials... if they give stimulus money im buying one... ha
Downhill ebike on steroids
I put my mortgage on the fact ramblers will still complain.
Why does he want to pollute the air
Now he just needs an electric truck to transport the bike.
Why the fuck would you want an eletric truck dumbass😂
there is a limit on electric trial bikes and that is battery life
Just bring a few swappable pre charged batteries with you, enough for your session. Trial is not like you will do a 70 miles A to B... Pretty much lapping trails around, never far from your home base or vehicle. Can't wait for your rebuttal to tell me just how impractical my solution to your lack of imagination is.
hard to give a definite number but we usually say around 3 hours of run time
@@OSETBikesGlobal That is actually decent
@@UTUBESUCK666 Yeah but to afford the bike in the first place is a hassle and batteries are never cheap
Great video but..well push bikes have offered the same experience for decades..and now electric bikes. The mountain variant is should say. They are banned in a lot of places in the states..acceptance could be an issue
Ummm interesting 🤔
Quiet dirt bike 🤢
That's a lot of hyperbole in one video.
Name 1, and then debunk it...
Vladimir Putin is a badass, more Vodka!
Unless this was all filmed on his private land (I would be surprised if he has a petrol station on his land) then he is braking a stack of laws in this video.
No licence plate (assuming the think is registered and insured)
Riding without a motorcycle helmet (his is using a bicycle helmet)
Riding on footpaths and bridal ways
And I am sure a few more. It's a motorcycle regardless of the noise it makes you have to treat it the same, if I took my Motorcross bike out and did the same I would be reported and not because of the sound of the bike because it's illegal.
Hahaha also, loss that sound ahahaha its makes noise still
I’m sure the battery doesn’t last for that long & fuck all this pollution shit you only live once (in your physical body anyway)
now you need a non-polluting silent EV.
Yawn 😴 it's a mountain bike with an battery powered motor? Still fueled by coal....
You're not helping the environment one bit, think of the power stations eating up coal and gas and oil to power your plug sockets lol
Exactly
Depends if you choose to switch your energy to renewable sources...
@@tombrannon1015 renewable sources do not provide enough energy at this stage to be a sufficient source.
As opposed to men and woman, kids, going to war to spread "freedom" to an oil rich country and steal the oil. So the west can choke on fumes as it sits in a traffick jam.
@@meatclaw7292 thanks for your lefty opinion....
2:41In real life these people will get run over by Electric motorcycle because they won't hear it(like now) and most off road motorcyclist take blind corners fast
That bike is so depressing
It's been a year now and I still can't find who the fuck asked
I don’t like electric dirt bikes and cars
