  • @therealjaysparrow490
    @therealjaysparrow490 9 місяців тому

    On my X2 there's a brake light, but the bike has to be completely powered on before it'll work. Also out here in Wyoming US when its cold all the time, I would say the rubber compound in the tires is a bit hard, and the tread is a little too shallow for slippery stuff ($139 per tire? Look elsewhere.) Other than that and the fact that the frame is welded wonky so the extra battery tray won't fit up under the underside of the top tube, she's good.

    You should always put loctite on the front wheel that with that type of screw setup and if you're driving down the road at 30 miles an hour and your front wheel falls you are going to be eating you know what and it kind of looks like the front light is looking upward but it could be the camera who knows but I really like to know the price

The billing was a China company🙄yet address says Texas. No number for customer service. A phone number I found on the website for shipping info is actually a CA area code that has automated voice mail. No real person. Is this a scam? Anyone have issues with this company.

    $699 for the MacFox X1 is a much better and more affordable price. $1,699 sounds like a lot of money for that so it’s impossible for me to say that it’s a cheapest bike. People think affordable electric bikes are under $2,000 while some think it’s under $50.

      The problem with that is most bikes wouldn't be legal at 60volts hell most 52v bikes aren't technically legal either. Most companies just wouldn't want to take that legal risk with a possibility of huge fines and legal issues. A 60v battery paired with a halfway decent controller say 30amps and a 750w or a 1000w motor you would be doing 40mph or close to it.... not legal too much power going through the motor. Before you accuse me of being a Karen lol I have a 60v bike that will do 55mph so I'm not a Karen.

    This bike is a total junk. Super cheap components, low grade materials, definitely not worth the $2000 I paid for it ( I ordered it with the second battery, which hasn't arrived yet!). The current versions that they send out, are limited to 25 mph, they do not come with red break calipers and they do not provide metal pedals like in your video. Cheap, plastic ones instead. My suggestion to you is, when you reviewing these bikes, ask yourself one more question, "would I put my kid on this bike"? If your answer is no, please state your honest opinion, so people don't get hurt or be disappointed with their purchase. Of course company is terrible, with non- existing customer service, other than a worthless AI chat bot on their website. . Protect your youtube brand and integrity. Thanks!
