The best use case scenario I can see is for ppl who need to combine public transport with a long walk - which is where the H1 comes in. A 20-30 min walk would work well. The fact you can fold/unfold it in 30 sec and carry it like a backpack is pretty unique.
I've ordered one of these and I'm waiting for it to arrive. I think you may have missed what I'm hoping is one good use for these. I'm 79 years old and have quite bad knee arthritis. I don't want speed, or to go anywhere demanding. I want to be able to go out with my friends who are going for a walk, or even just to walk from my car to a cafe. Maybe even to get around a mall. These are all things that are beyond me at present and I'm hoping that this device will improve my mobility and allow me to do some of the things that are currently too hard or too painful for me. For example, I took my car in for service today and needed to leave it for the afternoon while it was worked on. The workshop is probably about a kilometre from where I live and back when my knees were better I would walk home and back to pick up the car when it was ready. I can't do that anymore and while they gave me a loaner car to get home I would have preferred the walk, or the ride. So for me I'm looking for a mobility device! And I don't want or need a full on 3 or 4 wheeler disablility ride on! Nor can you put one of those in the boot (trunk) of the car so it's there when I need it. Most of the reviews that I've seen done on these are by people comparing them to e-bikes or e-scooters. I have a foldable e-bike that I use regularly - but it's heavy (30kg's) and while it fits in the car it's not something you'd ever leave in there full time. Hopefully the Himo H1 will do this. And it might only do 18kmh but that's a lot faster than walking so none of my friends will be able to keep up with me! Hopefully I'm going to be able to re-join my wife and friends for outings, including most places that require the ability to walk more than 10 or 20 metres! Have a think about the places you go and how most of them require the ablilty to be able to walk at least 100 metres or so. If you can't do that it is quite limiting. Hopefully the Himo H1 will broaden my horizons considerably! Cheers!
I have about 5 electric “vehicles” and I ultimately went back to a regular road bike. Nothing compares, endless range, higher top speed, and It’s good exercise haha. I watched this video just bc your editing style always inspire me!
Regular people trying to open a package - Oh damn I don't have a knife, ill use something I have on me... like my keys! Jesse - let me check I usually have a light stand in my back pocket.
I picked this thing up a little while back and have been messing around with it and have managed to get it to go 21 kilometres which i find makes a world of difference and I now use it most days
Hi I have a friend who swapped the motors out and I modified the shell to install a higher wattage battery it’s not too complicated and all you need is some basic knowledge of how the system works:)
I will try to find what motors and battery I put in it but I kinda just went to an electronics store and got what my friend told me would work so I’ll see
The absolute foldability of this makes it perfect for the RV and we are going to get four to cruise the campgrounds after a tire change to something a little better on dirt or maybe they will work fine
It definitely struggles when you try and take it off road, and I'm really not sure you could do much in terms of swapping the tire since those exact tires are part of what allows it to fold in on itself. But let me know if you figure something out!
Bought this as my last mile transpo from bus station from home and from office. Office mate and neighbors though I'm weird. A month later they bought one. :D
Your daughter is adorable! In another year, that will be her personal rocket racer (if you can manage to wrestle it away from Mom - she was enjoying it too)!
His laugh when he first sets it up and takes off on it, was enough to convince me. I've seen a young bloke riding one to work for a while now and fuel prices are goin up. I know for a fact, something like this will be ideal based on what I've seen. That, and I know I'll be as giddy as him when I get one 🤣
The Milo is what you need. It's a folding electric trike. Yes, you heard me. A trike. But that's good bc the front 2 wheels offer awesome stabilization & will bend low with every turn. You don't have to worry about theft bc you just lug it with you the same way you roll luggage. It can come with you on a train, in a coffee shop, in your trunk, etc. The only thing is the top speed & range is pretty weak, as is the voltage. But for a commuter bike, it's not bad. A guy tested it off-terrain and up a hill, and it didn't do too bad. I'm waiting to see if the next iteration has any improvements, but the current model is still a great option & worth testing if you're curious.
I gotta agree with Bugsb on this one, however it may be great for that single person who doesn't have a dog that needs walking, but would still enjoy friendly banter from neighbors. I mean you ride this thing around and people would be almost mind blown or not? I will find out soon as I just won an auction on our favorite bidding site!! 😮😅
Always such a good time watching your videos Jesse! This...bike...looks so dumb but so so fun...plus that battery looks badass, like you're loading some sci-fi cannon or something!
Funny thing is, its one of few electric vehicles that isn't a car or motorcycle that is legal in Norway (max speed on an electric scooter, bike, skateboard and so on is 20km/h)
For me onewheel will be much practical, because it's faster and more fun. But again, thank you for that video, because I love your videos! that dolly zooms were sooooooo cool. Stay safe Jesse! 🙌🏼
It's only good for travel, and even then only if you have no other options. It could be packed in checked baggage for flights, put overhead on trains. Speed and range truly bite. It should come with a 2nd battery, or an easy way to purchase the 2nd battery.
Since lockdown ive been bored with the internets so this week i started watching TikTok, your videos are perfect for there format you may want to look into it if you haven’t already, when i first looked at it didn’t grab me, but now everyone is on lockdown and the age range has risen from 13 to 20 to 30 year olds its got interesting, some of the people that make videos like yours get 5 million followers very quickly, check it out
Haha 😂 your kid and partner seem to LOVE it . I think it’s ACE although not as practical as I need because I need transport that can pull a dog trailer 😃 but I love this little geeky gadget 😂
This video was great! I enjoyed your excitement about it. I think it would be cool if it was a little faster as well. I like to almost die riding down hills at 30mph Hahah
You may want to go faster, but 17km is plenty fast for that tiny thing. Good for the design, could you imagine going 45 km on that thing! With those shopping cart wheels?
Is there a particular light stand that you recommend for opening packages or is it kind of a "the best light stand is the one you have with you" sort of thing? 👍
That would definitely be one of those things that my buddies would give me a very hard time about. So you traded in your "hog" for an electric ... what exactly? Fun video!! 👍👍👍
Great review. Got a few questions! How tall are you? I’m 5’9”, so I don’t really want to be that gorilla on a clown bike. How good/bad is the digital brake? Traveling in Manhattan, I may need to may quick stops while biking around buses and taxis. Does it have a supporting iOS/Android app? Does it offer to show the speedometer/range in MPH as well as KPH?
Hi Jesse, a fellow Canadian here looking for some Onewheel purchasing advice. I've never been a skateboarder or snowboarder, and I was wondering how intuitive and easy to pick up you think it would be. I live in Toronto, and I was wondering what you knew about the road (or sidewalk?) rules about the Onewheel in Ontario. And how do they do in the winter with cold temperatures and snow? Thanks for being a filmmaking and general inspiration and Canadian icon.
I bought this tiny vehicle as a "last mile" electronically propelled mobility device for use with my Miata! I need the mobility assistance but the Miata is so small, it is difficult to find the perfect mobility device. The price is right too!
I’d consider getting this so I can travel in between shopping plazas or even just between stores in a plaza or a mall….. Now it all depends on how much weight it can carry….
Classic machine......I would truly be a Gorilla on a clown bike. Funny stuff. I would need to paint flames on mine and wear my gang colors (dork gang) to not be teased by the children in the neighborhood.
Better wait for the next version... The improvement i am hoping it would have are... Top speed from 18 to 25 kms/hr Range from 30 to 45 kms A little bit bigger wheels Even if it becomes a little bit bigger & heavier as long as speed & range will improve, then it's ok 👍
That would be nice but I wouldn’t hold my breath. The screw that holds the front wheel on fell off f mine and the company ignored all my emails trying to get a replacement. The other day I opened the latch to try and find it and the latch broke in half. I think this company is long gone.
there's a good reason why it's slow. in many countries electric scooters are illegal if the motor is more than 200w. they are trying to make this thing portable and legal.
Please no comments about the radio interference in my lav in this video ok? Ok thanks!
Am I allowed to comment if the video hasn't been up long enough to comment on everything?
That's a Product review 👏👏👏
JesseDriftwood should I buy this
Josh I don’t know if you should, but I wouldn’t.
we thought that was the power outage here!

I picked this thing up a little while back and have been messing around with it and have managed to get it to go 21 kilometres which i find makes a world of difference and I now use it most days
I just ordered one. Curious to hear how you got it to go a bit faster?
How did you tweak it?

Jesse, you're still the king. Wishing you and your family all the love and happiness.
Looks cool. It looks useful for a truck driver with some truckstops with huge parking lots.💪👍👍
I love your laugh Jesse! It’s like the little child in you came out and it was precious hahaha. Gotta enjoy the little things 😬
0:41 that clip is SICK!

This is actually clever as they’ve banned privately owned E-scooters in the U.K. so you just tell people it’s a folding E-bike and you’re golden!
6:23 Dentists watching this video rubbing their hands together for the endless possibilities should something go wrong.
Always such a good time watching your videos Jesse! This...bike...looks so dumb but so so fun...plus that battery looks badass, like you're loading some sci-fi cannon or something!
I actually couldn’t articulate why I liked the battery part so much and that’s exactly it!
JesseDriftwood haha happy to help 👍 Brb just gotta go nerd out to some sci-Fi lazer videos for 5 hours
Wow! Your wife seems like such a sweetheart.
A sweetheart who doesn’t know how to upload an avatar.
@@JesseDriftwood how cute is that
Ahah that intro was the best! Great video Jesse 👍👍
Funny thing is, its one of few electric vehicles that isn't a car or motorcycle that is legal in Norway (max speed on an electric scooter, bike, skateboard and so on is 20km/h)
Dude your content is so nice to watch. I’ve gotten some useful video tips but also this kinda content is fun!
That was a sweet bunny hop at Beasley. Very niiice.
I just signed up for one year of Skillshare, using your link. ✌🏼
It’s a very cool design that I think will better prove itself in the future just like the Onewheel.
Yeah I hope that’s the case!
For me onewheel will be much practical, because it's faster and more fun. But again, thank you for that video, because I love your videos! that dolly zooms were sooooooo cool. Stay safe Jesse! 🙌🏼
Great to get around school campus. Speed is fine.
That’s probably true ya!
3:40 totally felt that
reason is that I am a 6ft, 209lb and have a small folding bike, because that's how I commute to the office lol
It's only good for travel, and even then only if you have no other options. It could be packed in checked baggage for flights, put overhead on trains. Speed and range truly bite. It should come with a 2nd battery, or an easy way to purchase the 2nd battery.
You’re amazing! I love this vblog! Keep it up! More please
Wow very Nice. Looks portable
"I'm a gorilla on a clown car" keeping this in my out-of-context quotes folder for later

The intro was freakin hilarious!! me and my son were pissing ourselves 😆😂
I was never interested in the scooter but Jesse is just so much fun to watch
aw dude thank you!
Jesse, can you give us a video on focus? When to use manual when to use Auto
Yeah Its something I want to make a video about, just haven't figured out how to make the video not boring lol
JesseDriftwood anything you come up with will be interesting no doubt, been binging your old videos, top quality!
Still watching... You made it look relatively cool! Great vid Jesse
The intro was awesome and hilarious, great video!
Sick hops bro
The RC car had me dyin. Stoked you’re capitalizing on the fun you can still have man!
How’d you do that effect at 0:40?
Fun video as usual Jesse :D
Your TeeHee giggles are infectious!! 🤣🤣
lol my mom thought so too
This video was great! I enjoyed your excitement about it. I think it would be cool if it was a little faster as well. I like to almost die riding down hills at 30mph Hahah
Grab one of your Heavyweight friends and see how the Himo H1 fairs, that'll be a good video
I agree. That thing looks like it would just piss me off, but I could definitely see the use for it in Japan.
yeaah bro, love what you do !
That Himo H1 looks so cool and looks fun to ride.😂
i always love your videos 😁
There's a small fine print just under the right handle bar not sure if you read it sez....(for Circus use Only)
🤣
I respect the honest opinion reviews 👌
We live on a boat space is so tight can you put this in a dinghy to get to shore and then ride it to the supermarket with a back pack ????
You may want to go faster, but 17km is plenty fast for that tiny thing. Good for the design, could you imagine going 45 km on that thing! With those shopping cart wheels?
True! But last I checked there are a lot of numbers between 17 and 45. I think 25km/h would have been ideal.
Quality content!🤟🏼
Just subdd Jpimpin! 😆😁Yeahhh Boyyyy!!
I almost spit out my tea when that remote control car popped up.
my heart stopped, thought it was the insta challenge, patiently waiting for the results!
I like it, but I don't love it... hope it will make mass production...
What is the motor power on it?
Love your videos. Probably won’t end up getting one of these due to living in Cornwall UK and it’s very hilly. That bike may struggle a little 👍🏼
I like anything on 2 wheels so it's all good👍👍
Is there a particular light stand that you recommend for opening packages or is it kind of a "the best light stand is the one you have with you" sort of thing? 👍
if it’s not carbon Fiber I wouldn’t even bother. 🤪
@@JesseDriftwood Noted. 😀
Where i can buy this Himo Ebike? Could you please send me the link?
That would definitely be one of those things that my buddies would give me a very hard time about. So you traded in your "hog" for an electric ... what exactly? Fun video!! 👍👍👍
hahaha all the more reason to do it.
Looks ... interesting, but definitely a fun video
Another banging video
Thanks dude!

the smile at 4:40
I was think of you.
If you like a slow pace in life.. like me😂it’s great
I wanna get one of these and make it as powerful as i possibly could
I bought this tiny vehicle as a "last mile" electronically propelled mobility device for use with my Miata! I need the mobility assistance but the Miata is so small, it is difficult to find the perfect mobility device. The price is right too!
Isn't the Miata your last mile transporter? Pretty sure they can fit under a desk. LOL!
I’d consider getting this so I can travel in between shopping plazas or even just between stores in a plaza or a mall…..
Now it all depends on how much weight it can carry….
I would get laughed off the street if I took that thing for a ride. Just silly!!
Haha for real. 0 Street cred
😂 yep and that’s WHY I like it coz it would make others laugh and smile
@@veganvocalist4782 Making others smile is a good thing....agreed!!
does it regenerate power when braking?
Even haters subscribed to your channel, I don’t get it haha love your content, excited for this video😍😊
It’s like I always say, haters gonna subscribe.
Good for your channel 😂👍
Good review, I can tell you were trying so hard to like it!! Looks perfect for the 12-15 age group maybe?
I have one but can't figure out how to turn the light on so I can use it at night. How do you turn the light on?
Short press on the button, once the bike itself is on.
‘Rocks make good knives? 😂
you tried your darndest to make that thing look cool in the voice of Randall from american idol "Thats a no from me big dog"
Classic machine......I would truly be a Gorilla on a clown bike. Funny stuff. I would need to paint flames on mine and wear my gang colors (dork gang) to not be teased by the children in the neighborhood.
haha now I want to paint flames on this thing. You sir are a genius.
Hello did you order this to Indiegogo? Thank you
Perfect vehicle to ride while eating your popsicle on the way back from the store.
😂😂😂
I reckon it just needs bigger wheels. They're selling these in Australia now for about $700AU, which is about $633 Canadian.
I just bought one for $289AU, plus $10 for delivery. And now I have just seen Jesse's comment that his fell apart... well, we'll see...
Aw the poor thing! I agree, it'd probably be more worth the money if it went faster. Loved the video though!
Yup! And if the top speed didn’t degrade as the battery depleted.
Netherlands be like: moped... actually the Netherlands be like with all electric propelled vehicles no matter how small: moped 🤣🤣🤣 🛵
I’m still watching!
Better wait for the next version... The improvement i am hoping it would have are...
Top speed from 18 to 25 kms/hr
Range from 30 to 45 kms
A little bit bigger wheels
Even if it becomes a little bit bigger & heavier as long as speed & range will improve, then it's ok 👍
That would be nice but I wouldn’t hold my breath. The screw that holds the front wheel on fell off f mine and the company ignored all my emails trying to get a replacement. The other day I opened the latch to try and find it and the latch broke in half.
I think this company is long gone.
Do you shoot everything hand-held? Or do you have a gimbal? I want to buy the Robin-SC, any thoughts on it?
Everything in this was handheld, but I wish we had brought a gimbal. So much footage had to get thrown out from hitting bumps and stuff. Oops!
Getting JD (Scrubs) vibes!
I have an electric unicycle and I really love it, but I think my next PEV will be an electric bike, a folding one.
Lol TikTok is taking over our lives! It’s a choppa!!!
I actually have ordered it on indiegogo and really love your review, can't wait to play this new toy with my daughter ~
So where can I buy one?
How is your hand dude??
Feeling better day by day. Long edit sessions hurt but most of the day it feels normalish.
there's a good reason why it's slow. in many countries electric scooters are illegal if the motor is more than 200w. they are trying to make this thing portable and legal.
already subscribed... no need to ask
