      Upgrade the rear 14t freewheel to 11t to get better pedal assist as well. Simple thing to do on these. IDK why all these department stores bikes keep using inefficient 14t freewheels in the rear that limits top speed.
      Larger range 11t-34t will also help with hill climbs. That small 350W motor could use all the help it can get.

    I've worked at many bike shops and all over in the bike industry. Every once in a while I stop in on this channel to see where department store bikes are at on the better end. This and many other products are truly incredible for the sport. I will always recommend people buy for a local shop, local private mechanic or even any of the big DTCs, but there are so many people that simply can't afford the bar to enter the industry. Bikes like this and the Ozark series make me so incredibly hopeful for the growth of the industry. The people that buy these will go on to hopefully upgrade and move into the mainstream parts of the industry. They'll vote in local elections for people that care about bike infrastructure, they'll join local groups and pay to maintain local trails. This will unquestionably hurt local shop business, but it's hard to overlook the increble volume of these being sold to people that other may not buy a new bike at all.
    It's wild to think Trek and now Walmart are championing engaging with the community. Props to you Walmart and thank you Kev for getting these things out there.

    For what you showed, a jaw-dropping value for sure. I tried to Google the Concord brand to see about the cost or availability of a replacement battery, but came up empty. I do see an eerily similar battery on Amazon for $269. It seems like if you want a second battery, just buy a second bike and have a spare of everything else as well.🤣

    One of my favorite shifters, it works so well and has a satisfying click. The lack of cutoffs is almost a deal breaker, when you need 100% stopping power I don't want the brakes fighting the motor.

    • @GiantRobo77
      @GiantRobo77 7 місяців тому +5

      Technically cheap Chinese style e-bikes are pretty repairable. The 3 main components, the controller, the battery, and hub motor are easily sourced. Compared to a Bosch bike, you can only get the repair via Bosch. Some western bikes have digital systems on the battery that will brick itself if it is connected to different controller.
      The main issue is the labor to fix a $500 ebike is probably $100-200 before parts.

Sure this is more $$ than the Concord but it is a class 3 mid-drive, 27.5, 1000Wpk, 28mph, Thumb throttle and PA. Mid-drives are typically never under $1500-$2000.

I have a campervan that needs some work. But a diy electric velomobile could be way cheaper & more reliable......I was thinking about a rail bike 🚲 with pull behind gear trailer. That could quickly convert between a road bike & railroad track bike....I really like the idea of a diy amphibious electric velomobile. Where the seat could lay flat & convert into a sleeping pod. It'd be hard to build but imagine a velomobile that could be rode directly into & out of water & used as electric-pedal assist boat/kayak on water & velomobile on the road.

    Great looking bike. As an older rider, I prefer a throttle for longer rides and to help get me going. I get tired of peddling or forget to sometimes.

    It took me about 3 weeks to get the extended warranty to pay off and they only gave me back the base price for the bike 535 not the 50 for shipping cost not the 60 for warranty cost

    Very promising! I'm a little concerned about after-sale support, because I have encountered some bike shops that will not work on eBikes they do not sell.

    Here's the thing....
    If you don't have a bike of any sort and want an ebike, this is a great deal for a semi powerful setup BUT....
    If you have a bike, even if it's a 30 year old MTB sitting in your garage, if you were to spend the same $500 on an electric rear wheel kit for that bike, stead of having 350 watts that can do a max of 20 mph for 30 mph, you could get a 1000watt rear wheel kit with everything included that you'd need to install it yourself and be riding which would move you close to 40 mph for 60 miles. I also guarantee that 90's MTB ib your garage is much higher quality than anything bought from walmart

      @@terrycruise-zd5tw A bafang bbs02 mid drive kit with any $300 48v battery will at most get you 20 miles in range with a 20 mph top speed. You can find the motor kit without a battery for $350. Thats $650 total for little range and crap for top speed. With that same $650, you could get a 1500 watt rear wheel (double the 750 watts of the mid drive bafang) and a 52v battery which would get you 50-60 miles of unassisted riding at 40mph.
