Not sure who the original manufacturer is on this bike, but CSC was selling this as the City Slicker back from 2019-2022. They are no longer selling it, so perhaps licensing is now with Lexmoto. The display appears to be the only real difference. The CSC version was limited to 46MPH. I purchased mine with a bad BMS and upgraded the controller (as it would not run without the BMS). It can do 55MPH.
@@russbarrow yes the city slicker version had a larger battery and better range. I was interested in changing the controller on mine but don’t know anything about evs and was scared of killing the battery
The insurance was roughly the same, for me it’s about £100 a year. There’s a lot less companies seem to insure it though , take it they don’t all do electrics. Yep you can remove the limiter easily by turning the throttle and pressing a button I believe , mines already done. Might stick a quick vid up how to do it
I am considering this or the Grom for my first bike. My biggest concern would be the gears. I have a car and would predominantly use that for daily commuting, so the range of the Cypher wouldn't bother me - it would purely be for recreational use and nipping to the shops etc. Would you recommend going for the electric first and then using the Grom once I've got used to biking in general, or just going straight for the Grom?
With charging can I charge it at instavolt points ( charging station for electric vehicles) or do I have to charge at home just scared to buy as I live in a flat
Yes as long as you don’t plan to go more than 20 miles on one ride. A 125cc is ultimately faster, this tops out about 45mph, a 125cc should do about 60mph
I charged mine and watched the smart meter at home was went up to 7p to 8p per hour and took 3 hours to get from 15% to 100%. So I'd say from completely flat to 100% prob 30p. I do around 28 miles to charge on mine derestricted. So around 1p a mile.
Stark Varg out there beating all petrol bikes in its class, 450s cant even keep up with it lmao and it lasts longer than you can sit on it for so range ain't an issue.
