For $260 that is a marvellous vehicle. Stylish, reliable, easy to park and load onto your car, fun to ride and maintenance free (zero gas-cost worries, no oil changing, no parking meter tensions, etc) So much fun.

Reliable, light weight enough to carry up a flight of stairs, yet powerful enough for bigger riders and no more than $500 - $600. Whoever can do this will become wealthy beyond belief. Great channel.

The built-in charger is indeed a great idea but I'm very reluctant to use any electrical gear which does not have a correctly-fused plug.....

@pamelasantini8783 Год назад

Looks like my little Jetson Bolt ... which I used to commute to and from work through the nasty Canadian winter. Because it's so small I could be in full control and could ride in the worst road conditions. ie snow/ice knowing I could just put my feet down to stop any slip. Kind of like a BMX. Also it's so small that my employer doesn't mind me parking it inside at work, which I could never do with a regular sized bike. Yeah, it doesn't go too far or too fast ... but it beats walking any day! :)

@bradleycasady9810 4 года назад

It's not the wheel size that makes it a rough ride. The tire size and air pressure makes it hard or soft ride.

@1bc003 4 года назад

@@bradleycasady9810 Wheel size plays a big part in ride comfort. The smaller the wheel diameter is the more it drops into a crack or hole in the riding surface. Therefore causing more shock to travel through the frame of the bike. You can mitigate some of this with less tire pressure, but then you reduce handling and add resistance to your rolling speed.

The trouble is, there are minimum ages in most countries to ride and while. It varies from 14 to 16 years old and in the UK the throttle would prevent it being ridden without being registered and insured.

Nuntius Bikes of any kind aren't legally allowed on the footpath in my country or the one nextcto it (you used the term "footpath" which kind of implies specific countries). They're classed as vehicles by law. Scooters & skateboards aren't and are thus allowed on both roads and footpaths.

@DiscoFang 4 года назад

Nuntius I've visited Japan a fair bit and it's a breath of fresh air over there. Bikes are allowed basically anywhere (except motorways & expressways). It just works because people don't act righteous, aggrieved or outraged and neither, importantly, pedestrians act like headless chickens when walking on the footpath. In the center of Tokyo you'll have grandmas on bikes riding at running pace on busy footpaths and it just works. Imagine bikes mixed in with pedestrians on The busiest parts of Oxford St in London and there being no accidents or arguments. Bliss.

I'm disabled and I live near the beach. However, the walk to the beach and to the nearest bus stop is just a bit far for me and this would be perfect for that. If it were $300 or under I would go for it. I don't think I'm willing to pay over 300 including shipping and tax. I wish I could find one like this for around that price cuz it would be perfect for that cuz I definitely can't do the walk of the way to the beach or the bus stop. Thanks for doing this. You've got my eyes and ears open and on the hunt for something like this. That's affordable. I wonder if you could research and find possibly anything like this within the price range that I'm looking for lol

@DonnyBWise 4 года назад

I giggled at the 6:30 mark of this video when I saw the cockeyed look of the rear fender angled off to the one side. Haha! I recently bought a Jetson Bolt Pro from Costco ($299+tax) and have to check and tighten up the fenders often. Incidentally... For $299 and I think it is a phenomenal bargain! Plus at 210lbs it pulls me along at 15 mph quite easily and is actually pretty fun to ride! Handle bar folds down to. Best electric folding mini bike (entry level) deal going on today in my opinion.

A durability test might be interesting..ride it a little every day, in all kinds of weather. Switching power supplies usually aren't too fussy about input voltage. Anywhere from 95 to 300 volts AC will do. Odd that it came with a US plug if it was meant for the Chinese market. It looks kinda fun...

good for kids that need something to get to school with. when they get to school they can park it in the gym or just outside the cafeteria and plug it up so it can charge while they are at school for full power to go home on. can secure it by putting a bike lock through the rear tire and around the frame of the bike so that it has to be carried to be stolen, which in such a public place would be obvious.
