Time:45-51 that’s EXACTLY wut I need it for… and it’s so hard to find legitimate reviews on genuinely “affordable” E-bikes. Seems everyone’s idea of affordable is two months mortgage💀 I’m on probation with a revoked licenses n I need a practical source of transportation that’s not gonna cost me long term, or physically kill me… I’m ab 7 miles from my wrk(not crazy, but 9+ hours str8) n it’s a labor intensive job so not rlly trying to walk after work.. Anyway Thank u for a genuine down to earth review my guy, truly helped me more than u kno, there’s a lot, yet nothing as far as videos go with these e-bike reviews… if tha makes sense😂

I'm 230lbs 6'0, and just got mine. Mine will give me around 30miles per charge(full throttle). However I have noticed that using PAS I'll get a LOT more range out of it. (Top unknown).

Thanks for going back for the snake, I would've done the same thing. FYI-when I was growing up if my brakes went out I use my foot on the back tire to slow it down, it works like a charm!

This looks super fun, i already wanted an ebike but after your video it's official, im gettin one.

[jacobguenther]

Thanks for this followup video, I've been looking for a cheaper ebike to commute to work and this is checking all the boxes. I just was concerned with how it would hold up. Can't wait for mine to come!

Mine is getting here tomorrow! Super excited upgrading from small little jetson

I’ve had these in my cart for 2 months. Finally ordered one for me and one for my daughter. Hopefully she likes it, she says they’re ugly 😂

love my ridstar. I only use the pedals to take off quicker. so far have 67 miles. Its been amazing to commute

[OUNVME]

I know somebody who's got this bike and here's a hint I know you said the pedals are a joke but if you use your pedals and actually helped it along specially at takeoff you'll get so many more miles you can at least add a by at least 7 to 10 just off doing that alone

Hi good choice showing how the bike performs after being used on a daily basis, also the mounting display bracket on my model - I removed a notch making it reverseable and was able to re mount it in a better position to read display. Good video info wise .

[angelgotbored]

Wanna get one sooo bad, just off by like 200$ gonna save though. Can’t wait to get it broo

[extrasadnugget]

This video is perfect I been needing a commute bike but I'm kinda strapped for cash so this helps me so lot

[carpelunam]

I think Im going to buy this right now, thankyou very much for making this video.

[MrMann]

Looking for a good ebike for camping trips and this thing was on my maybe list, thx for the review

[angelme]

First of all, thank you for your follow up video, it's great that you decided to that. Now, regarding the range. In theory, the range should be better if the bike is going fast. I know I know... seems counter intuitive, but hear me out.
Hub motors are most efficient at their top speed. If you are seeing less range on higher speeds, is simply because your route has a lot of stops and turns (where you need to break). In that context, yes, slower speeds give more range, but if we are talking about a straight line, I believe you get the most range on higher speeds. (and it makes quite a lot of sense regardless of the motor type if you think about momentum and how it affects range on higher and slower speeds. Of course momentum has something opposing it which is wind resistance. All in all tho, I believe that if there isn't too much of unnecessary breaking, the range should be about the same or even better on higher speeds)

Very nice dude, im at 145 miles on mine, i did some mods, like i told u last video, put cool red flame stickers on the battery, and forks, got red platform pedals, painted the pegboard red, i got better grips, i bought a stem extender that was awesome raised the bars about 5" and got a pair of red handlebars, which are a bit longer and definitely cool looking, i did 13 miles one night, got in a quick rain storm, Got soaked, bike was perfectly fine, the nxt day did i think 17.6 miles and i ran that battery down! I had to pedal about the last mile home...it was doing about 9 mph, but i wanted to push it, i wouldn't recommend pedaling this bike especially when ur 6 ft or over like me, i love this bike, its awesome, ppl compliment me about it all the time, plus i live where its all flat. That definitely helps the battery life, we have great trails here, mostly kind of packed sand, ( i live at the beach) cruising around town is nice too, i ride to work, the headlight is really super bright as u said, I haven't had any problems with the shocks I'm will upgrade the rear shock eventually also, my only complaint would be the seat, not that it's uncomfortable it's just I'm not used to a seat like that my folding bike seat is so much more comfortable, I'm looking at a different seat I'm not sure which one will fit it though, I did buy one of those gel pad cushions it hasn't come yet hopefully that will help, it would be really cool if they made a seat extender for these bikes to raise it about 6 in would be perfect, good video man keep us updated I'm loving mine so far I would recommend this bike to anybody, and you're right if you're going to spend the money definitely get the 20 amp battery

[DaPrintHouse]

Good vid, I was researching this one, and u convinced me. I'm 280lbs so the dual motor/batt is for me lol. Also from Illinois

[FreeMoney-]

I got one on the way and am pretty stoked to see how it is compared to my last E-bike. My current E-bike no longer has support for it and I cracked the entire rear rim.. looking forward to a new ride!

This review is really helpful.
Thank you.
My only issue is, im 5'6. A very tall female. And i like for my feet to barely touch the ground when im on a bike. I hate feeling like im crunched up on a bike
