    I just found your channel, I bought a Wired Freedom back in december, delivered in march, got home from a job on the road last week and put it together. Been loving the bike, carries my fat butt at 42mph. Love all your videos and the commentary is great! Hope to see alot more in the future.

    I really enjoyed watching you carving it up, and I do the same when I can. My bike is an oddball: a RadMini with dual Tesla batteries and a modified Bafang G062 running 3200 watts. Best part is it looks stock and nobody pays it any attention. One of my favorite rides was carving it up with Onyx's and Sur Ron's on a twisty paved trail late at night, and it was a blast.

    I don't own a fast ebike, mine only does 35 mph on a full charge and around 30 when the voltage drops about halfway but anytime I mention it in youtube comments or in an ebike reddit thread people yell at me and tell me my Philodo H8 is a moped or even a motorcycle what's wrong with 3000 watts of peak power (2 motors) and 35 mph?

    My ebike is street legal so unfortunately that means it can only go 20 MPH on throttle or 28 with pedal assist without cutting the motor. Really I wish the limits were more like 20/35 or 25/35. I was pissed to find out that after a firmware update, my Aventon was limited to 28--yet when I bought it, it could easily get up to 34 MPH and easily stay there. I regret performing that "update."

    The way that ebike could get regulated or banned is because people contact their politicians and ask them to do it so if we don't want that to happen the ebike people need to be the people that contact their politicians and advocate for ebike freedom. That's how it works.

    I'm a bigtime hate watcher. How dare you have fun on that Wired FREEDOM in this so called free country. You're a damn senior citizen for Christ's sake, where's your maturity old man. You need to trade in that fast bike for a mobility scooter with a extra big bell. Screw the haters Ruger, we did our time in the workforce, paid taxes to build those paths. To the Karens and Kaitlyns out there with anything to say, just respond with a Braveheart inspired yell of the word FREEDOM! 3-4 weeks till delivery of the Wired Freedom to go. 😁

      i have heard that california e-bike incentive got messed up by politicians who made it more complicated. they made more rules on top of it to bog it down that no one will be able to take advantage of it for awhile.
      one problem is they are now further limiting your e-bike options to only ones that are ul certified. that narrows it down from what the option list was before and created a mess with manufacturers who thought that some of their product line fit the bill and ended up wasting resources.
      we'll see what actually happens in its final form. there might be a bike you want which may not fall into that category now.
