Bumped into your videos about a week ago while researching e-scooters and I’m glad I did. These are some of the most relaxing videos I’ve seen yet. I don’t know you, but it almost feels like I’m taking an afternoon ride with a friend and clearing the day’s stress away. Thank you for posting these rides. They’re awesome. Definitely subscribed

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hey Nickel1911, thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos and I appreciate your kind words! That's exactly what I was going for when I came up with the concept for the videos. I wanted to showcase the city by riding through it but I wanted the video style to contrast everyone was seeing lol. I knew it was going to appear really aggressive to the rest of the world, but I figured my personality and style would take the edge off that aggressive ride! Were you looking into getting your first e scooter?

@Nickel1911 Год назад

@@eyebahnrides totally doesn’t seem like your riding style is too aggressive to me. Seems more like you’re trying to get from point A to point B as quickly and efficiently as possible while being as safe as possible. Sometimes, especially in the city, being assertive is the appropriate method to use to achieve those goals. Continued safe commutes to you! I’ve just recently started eyeing my first e-scooter, yes. Nothing serious yet, just looking at options and gathering as much knowledge as I can on PEVs. We’ll see where this rabbit hole leads me. Lol

@eyebahnrides Год назад

@@Nickel1911 Glad you understand! I always explain to people that you have to both assertive and respectful while riding in NYC. It's much safer because you have to match what's going on around you. Good luck with the research! It's definitely a rabbit hole that you'll end up going down lol. To give you an idea, I went from a Xiaomi to a ninebot to a mantis 10 to a nami burn e in a matter of 3.5 months 😆. My only advice is find the one that best suits your use case and buy one level above it lol. It'll save you time and money.

@Nickel1911 Год назад

@@eyebahnrides your advice is MUCH appreciated! So far the Nami Burn E and the Klima are at the top of my list based on your reviews and because of their waterproof capabilities.

@McBurbger Год назад

Hey I don't usually comment on videos in general. I ride a Super73 R Brooklyn for my commute- but I actually live in Bentonville AR (a relatively large metro area in the Ozark Mountains.) I kinda noticed you seemed really sad as you were riding the bridge. I used to go to school and then worked in NYC for a bit, and I'll be honest it was one of most draining and dark points of my life. I'm not sure how you feel about the city, and all love if you're digging it- but I will say that once I left things really got a lot better. The pace, the people, things just sort of leveled out finally. I'm not saying move to Northwest Arkansas, but I will say that sometimes taking risks and shaking things up is exactly what we need to save ourselves. Sorry for the unsolicited advice, and if I'm way off please disregard it. Really enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hi Pizza Rat, thanks for watching the video and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment! I appreciate ya. I wouldn't say it's sadness, it's more like low energy and tiredness after a long day at work. I'm in a senior sales role and as an introvert, it's absolutely draining doing calls/ sales meetings for 9-10 hours lol. Interestingly enough, I've been having conversations with my wife about potentially moving to a quieter part of town because we don't really take advantage of most of the benefits of living in NYC to be spending this much to live here. We won't be able to move far because my work is in midtown Manhattan, but it'll be nice to have a home in NJ or Staten Island. But who knows. I've moved out of NYC 2x in my life and I always return lol. I moved down to Northern VA and moved up to CT, only to return after a year. I guess you could say I'm a NYer to the core lol.

I got a chance to ride a Zooz Bike 1100 recently and I must say, I think I had way more fun on it than the s73! I had an EUC and it was amazing and I'm currently looking into getting an eskate aswell so I'm on the same boat as you lol.. Thanks!

@eyebahnrides Год назад

@@Steven-qm1xo Yup, the eskate will be fun and the portability will be amazing, the only problem is they're illegal in NYC. hahaha ya'll are definitely rebels. Its pretty much the same here in NYC. We're not supposed to go faster than 48kph and the scooters can't exceed 45kg (30mph/ 100lbs)! Every time law enforcement asks me about it I just say, "its like a sports car officer. Just because it can go 200mph doesn't mean we're going that fast on the streets. " They tend to agree with me and it turns into amazement once they jump on the scooter and feel the suspension lol. The traffic can be pretty dense here in NYC as well. This video was an exception because it's a holiday and I'm one of the only people that have to go into the office that day! Also, I miss most of the heavy with my work schedule because I get out after "rush hour" which is from 4:00pm-6:00 pm. As for my morning rides, I try to leave before or after rush hour! However, you'll see that even the alternative bike lanes will get overwhelmed real soon. Summer is just starting and that means more and more people will be on the streets!

Thank you for the suggestion, it's much appreciated. Interestingly, I tried that on the channel before and the subscribers vetoed it out because it's strangely quiet with just the hum of the electric motor. In the future, I do want to add a video like that type of video to the channel because I enjoy watching the same videos that you're talking about lol! It does require a second a multiple hd mic set up that goes into a central receiver/ recorder (one by the motor to capture the sound and one by the helmet to capture ambient sound), and that's something that I still have to look into.

The rides are the best part after work. Exihilarating and relaxing all at the same time. Work sucks for sure but the ride home is always a good thing because wouldn't you rather be bored at home than at work. I absolutely love riding my ebikes so much fun and just I don't know makes things nicer. Your family is unreasonable as far as a motorcycle. The speeds your going in NYC on your ebike is just as dangerous so unreasonable. Come ride with me in suburbia Maryland bud.

You should do a video on how you deal with parking while running errands, hanging out in a coffee shop or going out for dinner. I’m gonna move to NYC soon, and intend to get an e-bike, but am concerned about bike/battery theft.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hi Ayaz, thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel. I'll definitely try to make a video like that. Unfortunately, those situations don't come up as often as I'd like because everything is within walking distance when I'm at home or at work. I have a heavy duty chain and lock combination that I've only used handful of times in the 2 years I've had it lol! If you are getting a nice ebike for when you move to NYC, my two piecs of advice would be to ALWAYS keep it in your sightline when you chain it up and don't skimp out on cheap chain/locks.

HI Nikko, thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel! I'm glad you like them and it's something that can help you de-stress. The bike actually comes with me into my apartment since we don't have a garage or a bike room. I charge my batteries while I'm awake so that I can keep an eye on them. However, I charge them in a "Fire Sak" if I'm not going to be in direct line of sight. I know that these batteries are safer than most, but I treat them with the utmost care and never charge overnight because I don't want to have a fire in my home.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hey Fabe, thanks for watching and welcome back to the channel! If you want to check out my full set up, I have links in the description of my videos. This is the mic that I'm using with the X3 ( Purple Panda Lavelier Mic Kit: amzn.to/3I3UA3w ). I have the mic positioned in different places depending on the helmet I'm using. Having it in the helmet dramatically reduces the wind noise while allowing enough to come through as "ambient noise". I used to have it on my collar or on my chin strap but I opted for inside the helmet. I would say, play around with it and see which of those will work best for you. In the future, I plan to upgrade to a wireless mic but this will do for now lol.

Hi Ivan, was wondering what makes you choose to commute on the Super 73 vs your Nami on a given day? Thanks! :)

@eyebahnrides 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching this video as well Nic! Hmmm... great question. It really depends on how chill I want to be or if I want to sit. Riding a beast scooter like the Nami Burn E is fun but can be quite taxing as well. All the weight shifting, all the squatting, and the standing is really physically demanding. It's also quite mentally demanding because you can't just chill when you're on the Nami. A lapse in concentration can lead to a really terrible accident when you're on a high performance stand up scooter. The S73 is much more chill and comfortable ride. I can take my time and enjoy the scenery a bit more all while sitting. To sum it up, I ride the s73 when I want to cruise and don't really want to work too hard lol. Btw, I maintain full awareness of what's going on around me regardless of what I'm riding. There are so many things trying to kill you in NYC that we don't really have the luxury of "zoning out". I just wanted to clarify that before someone says "but Ivan you have to concentrate all the time..." because of my concentration comment lol I hope this answers your question!

@NicStride 11 месяцев назад

@@eyebahnrides That totally makes sense! I gotta say, I complain about dumb tourists not knowing how to ride and stuff where I live quite often, but honestly, I don't envy your commuting conditions! I've had one close call with a car over the course of the summer (actually my fault, zoned out at the wrong moment) and you seem to have several every day. I think in this video you saw a car driving the wrong direction down a one way street and got over it within 30 seconds. I would've flipped out! Haha 😂

@Tipchex Год назад

I have a somewhat similar commute. I know you are going to Queens so that is a factor but how would you rate the respective 3 main lower east Manhattan bridges as both an ebike and escooter user? I don't often use my Phantom for commuting over my Onyx into the city but it seems you prefer your Nami to the Super73 for daily rising? I'm kinda trending the opposite where the scooter stays within the borough and the bike is for going between. Interested in your opinion! Thanks

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hey Donovan, thanks for watching the video. In my opinion I would rate Williamsburg as the best, Brooklyn as ok, and Manhattan as the worst. Despite being congested, I like that the Williamsburg Bridge is pretty "spacious" and smooth. Brooklyn and Manhattan are pretty narrow but Manhattan just has worse design and has much more "unaware pedestrians" that won't move out of the way. I prefer using the scooter just because it's easier to find space in the bike room at work and I get less heat for it from the residents in my building. I actually enjoy both a lot for all kinds of riding situations (the range is about 60 miles + on both depending on how I'm riding)! The scooter is crazy fun because its exhilarating to ride something with that kind of power. The Super73 is fun because it's chill and extremely comfortable cruiser. I also don't ride the bike on wet roads because it's IP rating isn't solid like the Nami. So at this moment the Nami gets more time than the S73. That makes sense that you ride the Onyx more than the Phantom for the longer interboro rides. It can keep you off the bike path, it has the power to keep up with traffic/ avoid crazy situations, and I assume your range is also better! Which bike do you have?

I take these longer routes to showcase the city a bit more and as a bit of "ride therapy" for myself. Even before the channel, once a week or when work gets crazy, I would take these long rides home so that I can clear my mind before getting home. I actually have the short route's up on the channel as "Round Trip" videos like this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7xCqx9yoIdI.html

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hey Riley, thank you for watching the video and welcome to the channel! I 100% agree with you. A PEV that goes up to 35mph with a robust build is the ideal way of getting around the city. The infrastructure is getting better so it's getting easier and easier to get around. The only problem I'm seeing is, it's already fairly congested on the actual "bike paths" and we're only 3 years into the legalization of micromobility. Thats kind of why I tend to ride with the cars. That also makes sense why you have the Onyx. I've said it in my Nami video that the 60mph and brutal torque is overkill for NYC but would be amazing if you lived in an area with highspeed roads outside of the city.

The next one I'm going to is Sunday in Staten Island with the Richmond Riders crew. Check out their IG if you're interested in going! It's probably going to be a pretty fast right knowing them lol.

how are you recording audio

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hey Steve, thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel! I use a microphone adapter on my Insta360 X3. From there I have the panda Microphone (link in the video description) plugged into it and the the mic is attached inside my helmet. I hope this helps!

How much time did you cut off the travel time by taking the E-bike over a car?? If you don’t mind just curious tbh

@d.henderson1347 Год назад

From just putting the route in the maps comparing that time to your video time it’s only around 5mins but with the traffic and everything you would know that the extra 10-15mins might’ve been shaved off by riding the e-bike over commuting with a car

@d.henderson1347 Год назад

From what I heard I think it is V(uh)Sett too but I was definitely calling it V(ee)Sett also before I just checked a few different vids to confirm for us lolol

Hey D. Henderson, thanks for watching the video! Hmmm... here's the best way I can put it. It took me 45 minutes to cover this 11mile "joy ride". That's the minimum amount of time I need to drive the direct route home (not including time needed to find parking). It takes about that same amount of time to take the subway on the day's its running well. If I took the direct route home, it's only 16-20 minutes depending on how aggressive I'm being on the roads lol. Yeaaa the whole VeeSette or VuhSette thing is like Toh Mae Toe and Toe May Toe lol. I guess there's no wrong pronunciation. I hope they have a stand at the next electric expo because I'd like to ask someone from the company for clarification lol.

Hey Ivan, just wondering what is it that you do for work?

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Hi Ads, thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel. I'm a sales/ sales management professional by trade. My apologies that I don't really go into detail about the actual job and company.

@someguy909 Год назад

@@eyebahnrides Awesome! That's alright, I was wondering about shifting into the realm of e-scooters for commuting to my office based job in financial services. General consensus seems to be that scooters are not for 'desk based' professionals, whereas I think these are great options for short daily commutes and saving money. Glad to see that it is not uncommon in this world.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

@@someguy909 it’s pretty uncommon in my office but it’s a lot of fun lol. I’d rather take my scooter of my s73 to work than take the subway. On some days I already dress up in my suit and just do my hair in the bathroom lol. Since my rides are quite large I can’t bring them to my work space so I leave it in the building’s bike room.

@someguy909 Год назад

@@eyebahnrides As expected I presume, most people are not risk takers unless remuneration is involved! And tbh, that gilet and shirt combo with a helmet looks pretty fashionable anyway. Ride safe Ivan.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

@@someguy909 thanks! I hope you decide to go with the scooter as a means of transportation. If you want to try them out, my friends at the FluidFreeRide in BK do test rides. Chuck can also help you find the right one that fits your use case! Anyways, good luck with the search 👊🏼

You need ND filters

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Thanks for watching the video Eddie and welcome to the channel, I appreciate the recommendation! I've been looking for ND filters for the X3 since I've owned it and a few content creators have submitted a request for them with Insta360. I'm hoping they come up with a solution for the curved lenses of X3 because they have one for the OneRS. I would switch back to the RS as my POV camera just for that but I prefer the sound quality and overall video quality I get from the X3. So for now I live with the blown out sky lol.

Those wrong way riders give zero Fs about life.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

Yea man, it's the wild west when it comes to riding and driving in the city. I'm used to seeing the 2 wheelers coming at me on the roads but I've never seen this many drivers just blatantly ignoring the direction of traffic. I saw a person on Queens Blvd the other day go against the flow of traffic...

@marcb2raw Год назад

@@eyebahnrides queens Blvd shenanigans never end. Saw an old guy drive 2 blocks in the bike lane today in kew gardens.

@eyebahnrides Год назад

@@marcb2raw damn, thats crazy but I'm not surprised. I saw that all the time when I used to live out in Kew Gardens. It's always in that section right before the courthouse where they're all up in the bike lane...
