Today we have a video about the Ecells 5 Star. This 40+ MPH bike has a 1500 watt hub motor with metal reinforced gears. It's very quick and can reach top speeds not far off of the popular E-Motos like Sur Rons & Talaria's . This bike is a ton of fun and I highly recommend it.
I've ordered one of these and glad it performs so well. Seems to strike the perfect balance of being under the radar and still a well performing ebike.
I love this bike, when I put this clutched derailer on I think it will be pretty much perfect
@@TylersTrailRides I'll probably end up doing that as well since it seems like the only glaring weak point.
interesting but i like the ariel rider line. i do not need extra speed. motor impressive but i ride a sondors side step and im going fast enough. i have two sondors and i like the 27.5 big tires. i like being bigger in traffic. soon the law is going to change because ebikes are going too fast. some big crazy accident will force registrations and other ills. be safe out there.
Looking foward to my stepstar dual battery package!!! August cant come sooner!!!
I need to get my hands on the dual star upgrade package for my bike!
@@TylersTrailRidesI ordered my upgrade this week and want a step star for the wife.
I sold my last bike because it’s just too hard with my bad knees and steel rods in my back to throw my leg over it so I’m in the process of saving up for the dual step Starr, I got spoiled after putting two powerful batteries on my last bike, if I get the dual star with one battery, I’ll still be saving up for a second battery so I figure I better get a two battery bike in one pop.
I had to adjust the derailer when I got mine. No big deal. Works perfectly now.😊
Good to hear
I had a similar problem with my derailleur after a few rides. It wouldn't shift into 7th gear and the chain would come off on 1st gear. I loosened the slack on the cable so that it would stay in 7th gear all the time but now it won't shift down. So 7th gear with throttle it will stay for now. If you're looking into the microshift acolyte group set I'd definitely be interested in checking out that video.
Seems as if the double-walled chain guard on front is a bit too flexible. Is it? I wonder if there is a replacement for the chain guard. So the chain pops off of the front sprocket when you are in 7th gear? The chain is too loose at that point I am assuming. Have you tried taking a link or two out of the chain? Perhaps that would put more pressure on the arm of the derailleur, thus keeping the chain tighter. Just a thought. I should be getting my bike this week (hopefully); I will be on the lookout for this problem. As far as speed goes - it would be suicidal for me to go that fast on my local trails. I would be taken out by a deer for sure or run over some pedestrians dog.
I probably can get the stock shimano set up working properly but there is also the chain slap issue. Tbh it's just an excuse to upgrade the bike! I also don't usually ride trails at 40mph, that's just for illustrative and entertainment purposes for yall!
Dude watch a how to video or two and adjust your derailleur correctly. It’s not a great derailleur but I got mine dialed in and have no issues now. I actually bought an upgraded derailleur and haven’t installed it. After setting the stock tourney correctly it shifts perfectly fine. Soon as it acts up I’ll swap it out but 300 miles in and still shifting great. I pedal 90% of my rides and shift through gears more than most e-bikers.
I understand I could probably get this one functional but Im swapping the whole cassette to get better gear ratios for how I ride. Plus the chain slap is pretty bad, I forgot to include that in my video bc the chain guard I added absorbs a lot of the sound.
@@TylersTrailRides I see, ya the chain bounce around is pretty noticeable on all these bikes. I’ll probably have to throw something on there to deal with that annoyance myself. If you’re riding with throttle over rough terrain it does help some to shift into 1st and take up some slack but a clutched derailleur or similar would be a nice add on.
Bro I've almost done that. Remember pas 0 or power off if you get off the bike! The gear shift problem is a very easy fix. Two screws on derailer to adjust. Common adjustment on a new bike
I know I could get it working but I'm going to use it as an excuse to modify instead
Nice video Tyler. Are you 5'9 and 150 lbs?
So I own one I haven't played in the settings too much.I raise the top speed.How do I get max power to the motor
You better carry extra sets of brake pads if you ride this bike daily cause you’ll need them. 😮
A narrow-wide chainring holds the chain much better
I perfer single speed and that being 52 / 16 on 20" wheels and 52 / 18 on 26" wheeels.
I think I want to try 54 on the 20" and smaller driver on the 26" setup.
I think you don't need multi gear shifters with E.
So throw a single speed belt drive on. They are available
Thats an interesting idea too
Great video man! Are you getting the microSHIFT Acolyte clutched derailleur?
Getting? Nah... Its already here lol
then fine tune the speeds if its not sitting good.
Imagine using your blinkers. Most people consider it to be too much work to use turn signals. Why should they BOTHER? Hopefully they get fined for their stupidity.
Day 71 no ebike still for me…
If you need to contact them I recommend requesting a call back on their website, that was the most reliable way to talk to someone in my experience
wtf that’s a long ass time
@@TylersTrailRides I did literally nothing just oh yea and a quick check on my order honestly kinda ridiculous they owe me 200 bucks for being so late
@@RATEDC4. That is ridiculous... I had ordered a dual star, got impatient after a month and switched to the regular version and it was shipped within a week. They did not know I was a content creator until after I received mine. But I was probably very annoying as i called almost weekly about it
@@TylersTrailRides might have to call again and just tell them to send me a normal one
The bike starts at 2,300 not 1,999$
It's 1899 for smart people
Use the codes available and subscribe to emails they send a code weekly
Price changed inbetween filming and release. I did leave a annotation in the video
There is a 300 off code that can be used, plus content creator 100 off.
@@sledhead904 Got mine for 1795!... 4th of July sale 200 off. Boom. Not sure if that makes me extra smart, but maybe just lucky with the timing. Scheduled to receive in 2 days. So pumped.
Brake performance?
Any thoughts on how to stop safely?
Brakes feel great, quiet and a ton of stopping power
It has no issues stopping. I ride mine fast and hard
Great video, thanks! What is your height and weight? Also, what bag do you have mounted to the rack?
I'm a pretty small dude, 140lbs. The bag is from amazon
@@TylersTrailRidesAaaahh that’s why you can go so fast. Just joshing. I will be 180 lbs if I end up getting it so don’t think I will be able to hit those speeds as easily. I keep rolling over my mind whether or not to get the torque sensor. My current car bike with a cadence sensor drives me crazy with the ghost pedaling.
@@MrBalas3 I think with a powerful bike like this its best to go with the cadence sensor. I've seen really mixed comments on the effectiveness of the torque sensor on from people for this bike. That being said the only upgrade I personally would recommend is the dual star package as it seems really attractive but not necessary
@@TylersTrailRidesWith my height I think I would be more comfortable with the Step Star don’t really want to have to swing my leg over the rack cause I will have a grocery basket there. Although it does have that bend in the middle of the frame which may make it easier to get off. Wish they had the second battery in their accessories for ordering later. I wonder why not. As a matter of fact their options are missing for the most part 😮
I would be curious what the range is running full out.
Something I may just have to test in the near future!
One person got 122 miles on the version with the dual batteries.
@@Harsesis1only pas 1 though
@@baggerbenn Was it the E-cells video/employee? "Nick" I think his name was. It was also totally flat the whole way... but still... I thought it was impressive as hell. He was going a pretty decent pace it seemed. That was cool.
My Five Star will run about 30 miles range if running full balls out throttle, no pedaling at all. It seems to get faster and tourqier as it breaks in. I must of got REAL lucky, because about a month ago I called ECells, a girl answered. She asked my height and inseam, and recommended 19" frame. They had blue one in stock, she said it will ship today. Sure enough, tracking from FEDEX came that afternoon to my email, and package was in FEDEX possession in Henderson, NV that same evening. I had the beast in 4 days to NY. Love the bike it really is awesome 👍
What is the range on the bike
I'm getting 40 miles on one battery ripping pretty hard.
Did you say ? You could gap that moped
:)
Hernandez Lisa Thompson Jeffrey Harris Ruth
Imagine if it were aluminum...probably hit 50 easily
It is aluminum. What makes you think otherwise?
Why are you pedaling when it's doing nothing?.
Exercise and a tiny bit of extra torque
You actually do feel like you're putting in (albeit a minor amount) in highest gear with full throttle. Def noticeable on a hill.
