This 70 MPH ebike is DANGEROUS

If you enjoy speed, you might like my custom $10k electric bike.
✅ My #1 Favorite Big Ebikes w/ pedals:
This is like the "Trophy Truck" of ebikes, like a pick-up truck with a nitrous switch, huge and has ridiculous power, big 26" off road tires, and big plush suspension... you'll get more smiles per gallon instead of miles per gallon, don't watch this if you aren't preparred to drop $2k today:

Also this one, but it costs a bit more after shipping and tax:

✅ My #1 Favorite "Moped" style Ebike w/ pedals (The Corvette of ebikes: huge performance at a bargain price compared to more refined competitors like Lamborghini and Ferrari, wheels 20" wheels sit lower to the ground)

✅ My Favorite "Cheap" and Legal 26" x 4" Fat Ebike (Think of this ebike is the Ford F150 of ebikes: popular, reliable, big, strong, not as polished as a G-Wagon but it can do 95% the same thing at a fraction of the price)

✅ The "Toyota of Ebikes" (reliable, smaller size, good range, everything you need at a bargain price)

This 72v electric bike runs on a high discharge battery paired up to a BAC4000 controller tuned to force 12,000w into a mid drive motor. The current setup is 137 lbs of unhinged pure adrenaline. It's risky, but this is about the most fun you can have on two wheels.

This high power machine started from a Sur Ron which is very similar to the new Talaria Sting R MX4 - but this one is amped up quite a bit more. Only a few parts remain from the original bike, such as the frame, the motor, the wheels, and the rear suspension. If you're thinking about upgrading a Talaria Sting R MX4 or a Surron you may find inspiration and room for improvement in this build.

It seems powerful enough to be highway legal. It's definitely not really a bicycle at this point; just an electric dirt motorbike.

Motorcyclist here. its a motorbike. 100%. And just so you know, your gear is absolutely inadequate for riding and any kind of protection at those speeds. be safe man, no excuses, your brakes are very weak. braking needs to be your top priority on a motorcycle.
Looks like a lot of fun! Just remember that when you hit the ground at those speeds you will become a human crayon.

[blenderrendered]

My mate has one of these, you definitely dont want to take it highway speeds but taking it on trails is the most fun ive had on a bike in a while

Upgrading the rotor to one with two metals, so the central spider is a different metal bolted to the rotor, will help massively with brake fade. Given how easily that thing picks up speed I would definitely want to upgrade the brakes.

[scottjacobs]

I have a similar build. Thing is an absolute hoot, but the power off the line is something to respect... which I didn't and I smashed myself up pretty good. Back on it after a bit, now on power level 6

10k is just insane man, Base Surron light already almost 5k. I got into E bikes to try and save money on fuel. My save some cash plan turned into an expensive hobby quick

[fredmercury]

Under UK law, having a twist throttle makes it not a ebike, and not having pedals makes it not an ebike. That makes it illegal. I guess that's why America is the land of the free.

Frankly, what you have there is an electric motorcycle with bicycle brakes.

[TimothyApe]

This is so true, it is about how you ride not what you ride.❤
WIth these things you can fly under the radar almost everywhere, but you also most definitely can draw attention to you if you are asking for it.

[robertgraham]

I would definitely upgrade the brakes. Mountain bike brakes are intended to stop 250 pounds from 25 mph, ao they are totally inadequate to stop 350 pounds from 50 mph.

[TheWrigle]

I like how he calls the power modes " power assist" like you would on a power assist pedal bike. Unless you are waddling that thing around like a kids balance bike, those aren't " power assist" as they aren't assisting any effort. They are just power modes, same as you find on most modern motorcycles. Calling this thing an ebike is kinda a joke. A bycycle, by definition, has to be pedal driven. This guy has got the same "pedals" i have got on my Tenere 700. Accept i would call them foot pegs. These things are super cool, and i may buy one someday, but as both an avid cyclist and motorcycle rider, i think it's pretty obvious which direction these things lean.

[vanivanov]

Hmmm
It's not wise choice to use bike brakes on motorbike.
If you want to have brake wat may be strong enough there is just two options out there.
1. Magura Gustav M ( Very old but still possible to find in good condition)
2. Gator 8 piston insanity ( newer seen one in a wild, probably impossible to get one)
Of course need to be paired with good pads and 2.3 mm thick rotors to perform.

is not about the speed and the range, its the tires and the brakes you'll see people prioritizing after many learning experiences.

[cogitationescaecae]

To be honest I enjoyed watching beautiful Santa Monica more than information's in the video. Not that it was boring or something. I love the video. It's just that place can't be beaten... the weather, people, beaches, ocean, houses along the beach.

It's nice, I live in socal too but I can't justify the price tag. You dont need to spend 10k to go 72mph. The ariel x-class 52v (on sale for $1800 right now) and a 5000w conversion kit (about $1000~), plus a second battery (varies) will get you up to around 62mph. This is just off the top of my head, I'm sure there's many other options for the x-class. Those tires arent very fat, either. So, I like it and I appreciate the contribution but I personally wouldn't ride it. And be careful in the city, always assure everyone is an idiot and that there are cops on every corner.

For 10, 000 smakers I could get a nice used 1200 Kawasaki and have a lot of fun on two wheels and have about 5-6K left over to spend, I would not have to worry about someone snatching it and throwing into their pickup. For sure the ebike is cool and unique and you can get away with riding it in places where you couldn't take a motorcycle but you can't take any passengers and the like weight brakes, bearings and axles might cause a horrible accident. The overall build is lightweight and will fail eventually especially going off road or jumping or running stairs. I see a lot of ebikes catching on fire and that would be a hell of a way to burn 10K because I'm sure its not insured for that amount. Very curious where this sits with regulators... if bike then no license or registration, if a motor vehicle then you need plates, insurance and a driver's license? Pretty wild machine, incredible burnouts too... ride safe man.

[microcolonel]

It's just a motorcycle with inadequate brakes, put on proper gear when you're above 30mph; this includes full finger gloves, abrasion resistant pants with impact padding for the pelvis (if this bone breaks, and you start bleeding and don't get moved to a trauma center by a very competent paramedic, you will probably die), an impact and abrasion resistant jacket, and a full face helmet.
All the gear all the time.

[ago]

When the brakes fail, look for the nearest soft surface to run into to slow you down, hopefully!;-)

[robertkelly]

Its a motorbike powered with a battery instead of petrol/gas.

Bought it few months ago. Ride it to work and back + joyride😂 it's really worth in my opinion. Finally i can skip all traffic along the road way to my home😂
