He really does a fantastic job. I always feel that he "lives" with what he reviews and finds the problems that I would definitely find unbearable. Thanks for the hard work, Taran!
andrew nelson I've got this bike, it runs it 45-50fps on ultra, and 65-70 on high. It's kind of budget, and for a compact form factor that is the most you'll get out of it.
Holy shit Taran ftw. This is my personal favorite review since I subscribed to the channel. purely because Taran has a very good style of speaking and moving from subject to subject when compared to Linus or Luke.
I work at an e-bike store, Glowworm bicycles here in Sydney if your wondering. I strongly recommend the Ezee bike range, they cover all e-bikes from mountain-cargo-folding, all bikes use throttle + pedal assist and use the companies own batteries.
Yhowbyjytub310 That surprised me to because the last time he reviewed a bike, he said that he didn't own one. I guess working for LTT allowed him to finally buy one.
*AWESOME REVIEW TARAN!!!* Just now looking into building/buying an e-bike, due to cancer/kidney failure, and my medications making it unsafe (for everyone else on the road) for me to drive an automobile, at least on a bike I am the only one that will get hurt if I slip into autopilot mode... Anyhow, I am one of those a*holes that usually leaves negative comments for videos, but I just wanted to convey that I really think you do a great job in the videos you host, so well done, if you read this, that is... Merry Holidays!!!
HI EVERYBODY I WORK AT A BIKE SHOP (AND SELL MANY EBIKES) SO I FEEL OBLIGATED TO LEAVE AN OPINION Where I live we have massive hills, so Ebikes are very useful; that being said, POWERFUL ebikes with good range are the only worth investing in. Hub motors are cool but inefficient, easy to damage, and on their way out. Mid drive is defnitely the way to go. RAdpower offers very good deals for the money, but don't think that you're getting anything advanced; Hub motors have been around for a decade, and although their li-ion battery packs are nice, Li-Ion is very standard today. Their prices are good, but for a great conversion, I have to mention Bafang, particularly the 750w as a sweetspot (and legal in the US) Folding bikes are cool too, and often appeal to the engineer type or businessman, but always remember that you make concessions to have a folding bike, and that a fullsize bike, will big wheels and a full frame, can often offer much more cargo capacity than a "folding cargo" bike Thanks for the great videos, guys, and I always like to see more exposure on ebikes! Btw, the brands we sell as completes are Felt(bosch powered specifically), Yuba, and Izip (both with Currie mid drive motors). We ALWAYS are pushing manufacturers to include things like lights, fenders, and racks, as those are the accessories that make bikes USEFUL and are often standard in places like Germany, Japan, etc
Oh, and we've converted folding bikes before (not sure the bike retained 100% foldability, but enough to keep the user happy) Bike-Friday witha 500w Mid drive motor and 16AH Li-Ion pack, range of 60-80 miles, $1200 installed. Also, the Yuba Spicy Curry I THINK weighs in at 55lbs. I could be wrong.
William Meisburger-Iwata Does your bike shop have a website? You can't leave us hangin' by telling us that you work at a bike shop, what you carry and then end it at that, lol. You gotta plug the shop so people can check it out ( If there's a website ).
Kingdom Of Mog well not Ebike tho (i don't need one) but just a good old solid classic foot pedal bike in my country , just cost a little bit more than 50 buck (brand new) if it not last for 5 year i assume they're ripping me off (made out of steel with a basket / back seat , and stuff)
Sega Hen yep the e-bike market isnt really aimed towards third world countries. It's for commuting in small highly populated cities. I wonder what the average income of a new yorker is vs your area.
gangatalishis now it costs this much.. but as these things get more and more common they'll get cheaper and better. but if no one buys em at all we'll at square 1 forever
Taran really shines when it comes to these videos, he is very good at them. Im not even looking for something like this but I liked hearing what he had to say about it.
They have to consider how much it costs to make and prices for marketing ect.. I'm sorry it's to expensive for you (Like most of the things they review lol).
James Taylor Well I guess I shouldn't talk to much crap because I'd fork over 1k for a graphics card. To me that's worth it, but man.. for a silly ebike? lol idk man.. idk about it.
fantastic review... fast , full of content, and truthful work.. keep up the great content and editing , you have good skills ! BTW i bought 2 of these bikes for the beach.. should be coming in this week.. can not wait to test them out on the sandy beaches !
Dude, amazing job Taran. It was really explanatory and sufficient, with easy understanding. Definitely had a great time watching your video. Hope to see you around more often! ✌👊
