    I will be buying 2 of these. I have been looking for about a week for something for my kids boy and girl and really this is it. I haven't seen anything else that is even close. I just hope that they do come out with spare batteries thats almost a must. We go to Erie, PA alot and biking is a great way to get around there.

      Awesome! They actually do have spare batteries on their website now but they are about $180 each if I can remember correctly I just seen them the other day.

      @@JeremiahMcintosh I would say thats a little high for that small battery. But, with the price of everything being up nowadays, I guess it would be about right for a new market item. Give it a year and they will probably drop 30% in price. I was just on the website I didn't see them. Can you post a link if you come across them again?

    They're $148 at Wally now, and I procured one for my granddaughter. Pretty well made with an exceptionally well crafted battery. I rode it about five miles for a safety test and everything seemed fine (my 175 ponds didn't even get the motor or controller very warm).

    That’s a cool kids ebike. I take my two kids often.My girl is 7 and son is 5. I ride my lectric and my girl rides her razor pocket mod electric moped that goes according to my xp Speedo 17 mph and my son ride the razor pocket mod petite that will hit about 10 mph.we ride to a nearby park and it’s a 10 mile round trip and they come back with plenty juice left in batteries.Fun going out with your kids.This ebike will be in their future for sure. Great vid.

    you can always get a brick battery and get creative on how to hook it to you existing battery mount. you can get some really nice and powerful long range 24v batteries cheaper than the normal factory battery and to the motor controllers voltage capacitor is likely around 40-50 volt you could up volt with very little modifications to 36 volt but I believe a higher amp 24 volt battery would do just fine. 24v 10-15ah 500 watt lithium-ion you will go further and faster. check the guys at CAO MM batteries they are fast and have the best bike batteries I have ever used.

    @Jeremiah - If you could add time stamps in your descriptions and parts of the video to check out that would be great. Also maybe a write up of PAS -2 getting 19 miles would give some good insight, but yes you want us to watch your video i get it :) Thanks for the review.
    We bought one from Walmart they are only $250 now. We only get 6 miles on PSA2/3. So working with Kent to see the issues.
    Also $200 for a replacement battery when the whole bike is only $250. That is pretty pricy!
    Is there a way to integrate a different battery source?

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  2 роки тому

      Thanks Kevin. I do put timestamps in some of my videos. That’s great that you were able to snag one for 250 that’s a great sale. You should definitely get a lot more than 6 miles of range from the bike unless you’re constantly going up hills and weight a lot.
      I’m not sure if you can integrate a bigger battery because the controller is built into the battery connecting housing and I haven’t had it apart.

    Do you have videos on the other bikes you looked at or can you list them? I’ve been looking for a kids e-bike but I’m not finding much at all. I’m liking this Kent from your videos, but it’s out of stock at Walmart and a little more than I want to spend for a kids e-bike that has peddles.

    • @S.E.C-R
      @S.E.C-R Рік тому

      One thing I don’t like about this Kent is you have to peddle the entire time and can’t use just throttle, but it’s not a total deal breaker I guess.

      Every thing is controlled by their insurance company. The boring part for me is the $20 dollars an hour I would need it for about six hours
      So to rent a bike for one day at $120 would discourage me from renting and encourage me to just buy a bike
