John, I used to sell equipment to the tire industry and was in different tire plants nationwide. the bad smell you are experiencing is called "outgassing". Outgassing is part of the curing process, and depending on where you got your tires from (other than the US) some different chemical compounds could be used, making the curing process different or longer to outgas the chemicals used. So, there is a process called "Sunning" which basically means leaving your tires out in the sun for several days to speed up the outgassing process, (which can make you sick). Once done... After “sunning” the rubber (which the odor should be dramatically less or almost non-existent), use a neutral pH cleaner to spray, let soak, then wipe the rubber surface. Types of neutral pH cleaners: dish soap, odor ban, Zep, etc., and if you want, some fruity scents, use orange glow. hope this helps with the smell.
This outgassing process happens with vinyl products like shower curtain liners, treated wood and synthetic furniture, carpets, treated lumber, even shoes. Used to be STRONG from vinyl toys when I was a kid.
As beautiful as the beach videos are, this area is just so much more interesting! Where else do you get to see Grandma's burnouts? This heat wave is brutal. Not ready for my ID in the phone yet myself. Thanks for the video!
😊 I'm liking the evolution of your riding, also digging the fat tires. Maybe those big chunky dirt tires on the new e mountain bike pro, an all around beefy fast ride. I think that would be the master bomber. You might lose some agility, but would be an overall comfortable Urban shredder.
Bro...EVERYWHERE in LA, or hell California in general is a "Gang zone"...I love the content just riding around and seeing what it's really like there but, the zone thing is kinda played out...Like, you step outside, its a gang zone...we already know.
19:05 Hicks I'm going to have to stop this video. I have a zero four hundred wake-up for tomorrow morning. So hopefully you'll either get twice the good marks or at least still the good mark I gave you.
Who the F#*k dont like wheelies! Takes a special person to watch a bike video and complain about a wheelie. HAHA! Love all your content brother...keep em coming. #wheeliehaterssuck
Hey hey I'm actually checking out one of the videos you posted yesterday and I'm a huge fan of yours hey I wanted to ask you have you ever tried checking out the video preview of Dead Island 2 do you realize when you went towards the beach it actually looks like part of the you know game I just want to let you know all right I'll check out more of the videos when you post them all right catch you later bye😊
Hey it's me hey I happy that you like the game the island too and I'm also hoping that you had a happy 4th of July you know and you know I'll check out more of the videos once you post them all right catch you later bye
So, I'm watching the movie, "Wrath of God", with Jason Staitham, and it's filmed in LA, of course on the (old) 6th Street bridge, and surrounds. I don't know where they found such clean parts of LA, because there's no homeless in tents, no shopping carts, no trash, no burned out cars, no derelict buildings, etc. etc.
your absolutely right... you have to watch out for some of these idiots in the cars.... People in general outside just dont pay attention as much as they should. be safe my G...keep creating awesome content.
Love ur video and definitely going to try and win the bike… But if I don’t how do I find where to purchase this bike… Appreciate any help keep the videos coming
I'm sorry.. I'm from the East Coast... but I have to ask... what is with all of the scooters just left by themselves on the sidewalks and all over the place. Wont people just steal them..? I see them all over your videos... just asking
Some ebikers are spoiling it for the rest of us. Everything is catching up with you now, and you will be left with your super powerful bikes. You will never be able to ride. I don't mind paying tax and insurance yearly if it means I can keep riding
i also grew up in north long beach - last lived off of 68th and atlantic. north town fahever. my first job was in LA - across from Pershing square in the former Douglas oil building. i entered your bike giveaway as my grandson would love this should i win. i am old and breakable and love my granny ebike…p.s.don’t kill jeremy. or yourself.
No bans here in NY. Not surprised a loser on a stark varg f*d it up for the rest of those in that area. Always that 1 person. NY is chill so far rode with my cuz a lot and he has a surron, we have passed cops wit no issues. But we also dont ride like idiots. my eride is coming in, in like 2 days 👍 can't wait.
I live in southbay, in the hermosa / redondo beach area, no e bike ban, was just there. no problems. rode the e-ride to Venice beach on Sunday and rode by multiple sherifs and beach police. if you being cool and ride with respect to others you will be under the radar.
That's incorrect. They didn't ban ebikes altogether. They banned surrons talarias, basically the illegal off road bikes, however, I have a stealth bomber which has petals and I basically told the cops what's up. I got stopped 3 times in 3 blocks. Each one of them got sent home packing..
I'm in Glendale and I've never had a cop here or in the rest of LA give me a second look on my moped ebike. Worst I've gotten is Karens on the river path
I work at a bike store for 9 years now. I even have a surron but band them or else kids will keep dying..Kid died in the Bay Area 2 weeks ago cause he hit a car..he hit the car -.-...Lady who is in charge of vista parks in Cali cant even ride a bike such a fail.
Chinese rubber that's why the smell. You slippin wearing those orange gloves, lol. Those big tires do look good. Hell to no to digital paying, you saw what happened to us Canadians having our bank accounts frozen right.
Were heavily restricted in this country bro too 500 watt was 250 😮 But my ebike is Up graded too 1000 watt but still looks Stock Not fast, But fast enough for me, Plus I live in the Mountains Gets up all the Hills Can cruise everywhere Love it 😊
if everybody rides the way you ride, then for sure they would ban ebikes. in my city they banned scooters from the sidewalks because people were going too crazy with them.
CST tyres are nylon, plastic. More durable and less prone to flats. I prefer them, for road riding. Expensive tyres lose tread more faster. I got a supplier that sells me a set for 68, well worth it
Love your videos brother over here in the uk the police stop the kids and take them off them but the people who drive mobility scooters on the highway they don’t do anything about those
My brother told me to check out your videos and they are way cool. I just started the ebike thing with a kit attached to a beach cruiser, but the bike you ride is on another level. I'm in workman's comp last couple years due to injury so it going to take a while but I'm definitely saving up for one of those! Good vids!
Hi, I’ve been following you since 2015, and you’ve given me a lot of motivation not to give up cycling. I’ve been into extreme sports since I was 16 as well. I really love your videos; you must be a truly good person based on what you’ve shown of yourself so far. Thank you for doing what you do and for motivating people! Peace!
Here in Florida I don’t think they’re getting banned yet, I feel like they don’t even care about dirt bikes on the road anymore so e-bikes pretty stable at the moment 💯
Hi John great video as always. Yes it is statistically. Proven that the warmer weather does cause a mood change. I looked it up because I’ve noticed that happening as well. Be safe out there bro. See you soon hopefully.
John it’s been a while since I seen one of your vids, but it just popped up on my feed and haven’t watched in a while. This is what I needed to see, this was like a therapy session for me. Much needed vid, glad it came on my feed.😎🍿🥤😌
Well... not to offend anyone: But if you ride your Ebike both as a cyclist & a motorbike (picking the cherries sort of) I understand if they ban it. Start behaving better
That would be missed up to win a then not be able to ship it,right!!! Offer to pay shipping, good luck, from Sacramento, California USA 🇺🇸, peace ✌ out my friend
Forgive me if I missed it; You mentioned the tires several times but I can't find where you said which tires specifically they were? Shinko 244? It's hard to tell. My E-ride Pro SS has stock tires and I'm trying to decide if i want to buy 244 or 241, but I ride mostly in the city and your review of your tires would help... If I could tell which tires they were! :D
