Bro, you're awesome! Great video production! You are the first one to introduce me to this bike. I explored many other reviews, and yours still stood tall amongst the others. Yes, I ordered a Lyric Graffiti X, third batch Preorder.
@@thebikecaveI kinda your neighbor down here on the Olympic Peninsula. BTW I also have a Sparks Cycle works Brute arriving in January. Likely before the Graffiti X. Another third round pre-order. That bike I plan to use for parts and material run with my construction company. Sparks provides a VIN, title, bill of sale, etc. I’ll very likely register it. I’ll be leaning into the grey area a bit. Best I can tell Washington state registration shouldn’t be an issue? If you’re interested in checking that bike out you’re most welcome to do so. I really dig what the crew at Sparks is doing.
Congrats! Hope you enjoy it. I REALLY love the bit of curvature they did to that trim piece below the seat (with the Graffiti logo on it). It adds so much dimensionality to the whole bike over the flat piece that was there before.
I love your productions!! Your enthusiasm is energizing and knowledge eye opening. Man I want one of these!! I did pick the Meelod Dk300 and have been having lots of fun…but lusting after this beauty.
Thx Jay! I appreciate the kind words! The Meelod is a great bike for the $ and I’ve been enjoying riding the DK300max. I’m definitely lucky to be in this position!💪🏻
I outlined the changes in the build video here… As fast as performance, I can report that it’s been very similar to the prototype in my first Graffiti X video.
Way to go bro!! Congrats. I wish i had the storage place for it. I have 3 e-bikes already. 2 bikes by Ride1up, the LMT'D and the Prodigy Xc that i put city slicks on and a dropper post. Also have a specialized Turbo Tero 5.0. Would love a specific e-mo ped now. Something faster like this to blurr the lines
Very nice comprehensive unboxing and assembly! I am usually annoyed and cursing during my bike assemblies. You were able to keep me entertained throughout the video! 👏👏. PS thanks for sharing my bike delivery experience! Enjoy your Graffiti X! 🍻🤙
You should review the Spark Cycleworks :"Brute" model is new.. they also have Javelin older brother version. The Motor goat v3 is the way.. just 60v overall.. Motor goat 60ampHour @ on a 60v system simultaneously
I love everything about this bike except for the price so you might as well buy the Spark Cycle Works Brute and get so much more for less. I already own two Spark Cycle Works Bandit's and these bike's are excellent but I definitely have the Brute in my sights.
Hello, you do a great job with your reviews, so I had to subscribe! Waiting on my X, batch #4 in April for delivery. Couple questions.....will we need motorcycle type lire levers to remove/install a tire? I've been told that there is a motor disconnect, but no one has shown it. Could you? It looks like rear wheel removal should be pretty straight forward....do you agree? Thanks, man!
I checked my Graffiti and the tires were at over 40psi way over filled... brought it down to 20 and it rides much better. I'm gonna check the shocks next...ride is a way to stiff for me. I'm betting they're filled to the max PSI.
Congratulations on your new ride. Question/Comment : I don’t think Lyric listens to customers, we need a seat rider attachment ! Or Lyric should not advertise that the bike fits a rider up to 6’4” tall.
So they are definitely shipping them out, thats good to see. Ive been wanting to get one as my next bike for commuting. Being partially disabled and living in California, i cant work a good paying job. So i cant afford rent/utilities, food, phone bill, and a car payment as well as the insane prices for just liability insurance as well as gas prices, which are going to be taxed another 2 dollars a gallon starting January 1st 2026. But i can afford rent/utilities, food, phone bill, and have enough to save for a one time purchase on a ebike. If i save for a year or two. Before anyone says anything about government assistance, ive tried. Im not disabled enough for it even though i have a hard time just standing for longish periods of time. I live in constant moderate to severe pain and have been denied pain medication or sleeping pills and the lack of sleep over the years has just made my condition worsen. This state is screwed up if you're not 40% disabled (im 37% disabled) no matter what the circumstances are for your condition.
@@thebikecave Thank you man, I'm 5'3" so I will struggle with this seat height, I will look for the next electrify expo to have a test ride to see if I have any reach. Thanks again!
Love this bike! So expensive, i ultimately want this or the billy goat! I've been into ebikes now just over a yr, and I've kinda gone nuts! I've had 14 since last August, I was learning and bought a lot of mid range bikes, then got into the 26-in ebikes, then i found the Bigniu BG-X! Imo the ultimate Cruiser bike, and for the money is the best ebike, and gets over 40mph, I'm currently down to 7, I've sold quite a few, ultimately I want my 2 Choppers (yes I have 2) my 26-in my happyrun G100 and maybe 1 more, i have a little UA-cam channel I do reviews too, very small, I'm just starting, but it's super fun and I'm a bit goofy and like to keep it light, I love your videos dude and your personality, you seem like a great guy stay the way you are man, maybe eventually I get the billy goat or this graffiti I just need to stop buying bikes and get rid of a few at this point haha,
Congratulations on your new ride. Question: You said you waited a year for the bike was that after you ordered it ? I don’t like the fact that Lyric doesn’t stock their bikes and their pre sales should be worded “ Build to Order” since the customer is putting out thousands of dollars and having to wait 5,6,7 months to get a Graffiti X . My opinion is when a company doesn’t stock their bikes the company isn’t willing to front their money to build the bikes and the company isn’t that confident that they would sell all their in stock bikes , speaking of the Graffiti X. Lyric should have a stock of 75-100 bikes and do away with the BS pre sale crap. I’m not a UA-camr and don’t get e-bikes for free like most UA-camrs doing reviews and I’m alot older almost 70 years old so I’ve been around and know what these companies do. The Graffiti X is a very good illegal bike in the US. I can order a Sparks Brute and gave it within 8 weeks made in the US and delivered built for the same price as the Graffiti X
Damn your box looks like it's in great condition. Mine had ONE green strap on it on one end of it and that's it. I hope nothing is wrong with the bike....I'm away from rn so I can't build it yet.
love the vids man. but as a responsible rider of 30 years . I own everything from electric to gas and in between. yes its safer to go the speed of traffic for US. but what about the cars WITH registration and insurance? at that point you need to check yourselves guys and realize that is a motorcycle and needs registration and insurance. such selfish statements are ignorant . so we get to go into traffic and cause accidents with no insurance etc? wow guys. even as a rider who owns a eride pro , roadrunner v2, kaabo wolf warrior x gt. that's ridiculous and screams ENTITLEMENT, LOL
the laws are in place. register it as a moped in that range and motorcycle if higher. get insurance. boom OMG that must be rocket science to some ppl....lol
I got insurance from lemonade. If my bike gets stolen or hit, as soon as I get the police report and send it in. The money is on my bank and I can replace it. No we can't register it but I'm okay with that. I haven't had a motorcycle maybe one day and you might know better than me. But me and my Ariel rider rides 365. Rain, snow , hot and cold I'm on it going to work. When I'm not in a safe bike lane and riding on the side of traffic, being able to have the speed keeps me safe. Example.... People will look for cars before opening doors or pulling out and not e bikes. So if I can keep up with a car I feel safer. I'm not trying to come at you just expressing my point of view Ride safe bother
Without you guys, none of this would ever happen! Thank you! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Check Out the Graffiti X Here! bit.ly/43ytev9

Your front fender is backwards brother

Thx Peet! Stoked for you! You’re gonna love it! So happy to have you in audience as well! 🤜🏼🤛🏼

I remember watching the video of the bike review and buying it shortly after. I’m in batch 3 and I’m so excited.
🤘🏻
@PTpeet when did it say it would come for 3rd batch. I'm thinking about getting one. I just heard customer service was bad and a few other things.
Congrats! Hope you enjoy it.
I REALLY love the bit of curvature they did to that trim piece below the seat (with the Graffiti logo on it). It adds so much dimensionality to the whole bike over the flat piece that was there before.
Thx! Totally! The small details are so nice on the production model. Makes the bike so polished.
I love your productions!! Your enthusiasm is energizing and knowledge eye opening.
Man I want one of these!! I did pick the Meelod Dk300 and have been having lots of fun…but lusting after this beauty.
Thx Jay! I appreciate the kind words! The Meelod is a great bike for the $ and I’ve been enjoying riding the DK300max. I’m definitely lucky to be in this position!💪🏻
what is the pedal thread size
I didn’t know there were different pedal threads…🤷🏻♂️ normal I guess…
🔥🔥 congrats bro
Thx Homie!🤜🏼🤛🏼
I was waiting on your review. I can't believe it's been 5 months. Time flies!!!
I outlined the changes in the build video here… As fast as performance, I can report that it’s been very similar to the prototype in my first Graffiti X video.

Thx Ian! Definitely blurs the lines!🤜🏼🤛🏼
Is there any way to disable the slow start?
Not sure… Haven’t messed with the advanced settings yet.
I love your style and your content. Continue to do great things. Thank you.
Music to my ears! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
The bike storage can be fixed by getting the Graffiti X Rear Rack to go with it. Thats what I did and I plan on carrying a lot of cargo.
Yeah I saw that… Wanted a shorter rear end. Stay tuned to see what I did to it!🤜🏼🤛🏼
That scar on the rear hub will kill me lol
I ended up switching the rear suspension to the middle hole. Feels so much better
I just ordered a Graffiti X last week! Looking forward to April 2025 delivery in batch 4!
Very nice comprehensive unboxing and assembly! I am usually annoyed and cursing during my bike assemblies. You were able to keep me entertained throughout the video! 👏👏. PS thanks for sharing my bike delivery experience! Enjoy your Graffiti X! 🍻🤙
Cheers! How you liking yours? Done anything to yet?
Thanks for the awesome review. What the T handle wrench you are using ?
All my tools are Park Tools.
What mirrors have you decided on using?
You should review the Spark Cycleworks :"Brute" model is new.. they also have Javelin older brother version. The Motor goat v3 is the way.. just 60v overall.. Motor goat 60ampHour @ on a 60v system simultaneously
Let them know to reach out to me… I tried but didn’t get anywhere…
I love everything about this bike except for the price so you might as well buy the Spark Cycle Works Brute and get so much more for less. I already own two Spark Cycle Works Bandit's and these bike's are excellent but I definitely have the Brute in my sights.
I hear you on the price... but the production model looks incredible!

I was going to buy a revv1 set for off-road. Will this bike be better?
For off road? Yes. Definitely, the graffiti is built for the road.
Does the graffiti X seat still lift open to show the controller storage area or do you have to take the whole seat off
Just the side piece where the graffiti logo is… 2 screws and you can access the controller
Congratulations 👏
Thx Tony!🤜🏼🤛🏼
How many miles you commute to work?
15 miles, 30 round trip

Hi man, what's your height, your leg extension and the seat height? it is just to have a reference, thanks in advance!
5’9”
@@thebikecave Thank you man, I'm 5'3" so I will struggle with this seat height, I will look for the next electrify expo to have a test ride to see if I have any reach. Thanks again!
Sorry a revv1 drt would you buy graffiti instead?
I prefer the graffiti as I ride mostly on the road. I just use it as a commuter.

where was the screw for the front fender
In the lower crown of the fork

They are cheaper and faster these days. I still love my illegal e-bike build better though. Like that style of ebike too
So nice!👌🏻
I am one of your many followers
Thx for joining! Happy to have you!
🤜🏼🤛🏼
Not to sure about that front fender. Might be backwards
I took it off right away… Got something way better. I’ll show you guys in the next video.💪🏻
Always check your nuts 🎉
You already know
Ride it ha
As soon as I get a nice sunny day, I'm for sure getting out and filming a full review of the production model.
