I bought the heybike Ranger and it’s been great. I started to get a bit of range envy from the explore until I discovered I could wire in an additional battery pretty safely and easily. I still only have a 500w motor but I have easily over 100 miles range with pedal assist and over 70 miles throttle only. I’m happy

@icestationzebraassociates2460 Год назад

I bought one of these and It's a great bike, but I did change out the seat. If you're a shorter person, this bike may be too big for you (I'm 5'6" and had to get a different seat to be able to touch my toes to the ground.) That said, it might be pricey, but it's a TANK. I feel like if a car hit me, the bike would be fine, but the car might be totaled. It's super solid. I use it for a short commute (~3 miles on some really hilly terrain) and longer rides to my sister's about seven miles away (also a very hilly ride.) The range on it is no joke and a big plus if you're looking for that.

@smileychess Год назад

After 8 months would you still recommend it? I'm considering selling my expensive car because I work from home. Most of my trips would be similar to yours (3 miles to the grocery store, or max 15 miles to visit my brother).

@TheHealthMetropolis 11 месяцев назад

What diameter was the seat that you bought? And were you at least able to pedal with the original seat

@icestationzebraassociates2460 11 месяцев назад

@@TheHealthMetropolis I think the post for the one I bought was 25.4 and was a little small, but I happened to have a shim that added a couple mm so it worked. I could pedal with the original but wanted to be able to put at least _one_ foot down.

@sunsetpalms1923 5 месяцев назад

I am 6' 4", 225lbs and I have this bike. The range I get is about 30 miles with throttle only and about 50 miles using PAS 2 and 3 with very little throttle. The bike weighs about 80 lbs and is a tank but it is not for smaller riders

@mtadams2009 Год назад

I think the price is very reasonable, then again I am a mountain biker and think nothing of spending well over five thousand dollars for a bike. I live in two states rural New England and outside NYC and I see lots of e bikes and people seem to love them. My friend just purchased a real mountain bike that is pedal assist and he paid close to ten grand. He lives in Vermont and loves to mountain bike but hates to climb. Pedal assist bikes are huge in Europe and getting very popular here too. Nice review, thanks

@ronggearrob9622 Год назад

Surprised the brakes are just mechanical and not hydraulic for such a heavy (a 100 lb pound is just crazy) and powerful bike. Disk brakes that squeal most likely means the pads have been contaminated with oil or grease that transferred form the rotors (even just touching the rotor with your bare hands can contaminate a rotor and then the pads when you use the brakes). Best to clean the rotors with some rubbing alcohol and a paper towel before riding the bike. Also, disk brakes need to be bedded in before using the bike for a regular ride. Bedding in is relatively quick and easy, just coast down a hill and squeeze the brakes a bit, but not so much you come to a stop and repeat, the goal is to heat up the rotors and pads (it takes usually about 10 times on a mountain bike, I would guess the same for an e-bike). Gradually you feel the brakes bite more.

Great video, just a word of caution, a lot of these lithium battery products are causing fires in peoples homes or garages. It’s very difficult to determine if battery is not compromised, while charging or just not being used they go into thermal runaway and catch fire. I would recommend anyone who is considering these transportation alternatives to educate themselves on all aspects of owning such products. Keep up the great videos SC.

I never charge a e-vehicle battery unattended the first few times. If a battery takes a good hit or fall, I consider it untrustworthy. They make flame containment bags to charge these in also

@carennorthcutt7724 Год назад

I'd love one, but I'm afraid someone would cut the lock & throw it in the back of a pickup truck while I shopped for groceries. I know I could take the battery with me, but that's the easy to replace part.

The key will also stop anyone riding it away but you would need to lock it up for sure. With this much $ invested I wouldn't be leaving it alone much to be sure.

We purchased this Vivi 27.5” electric bike and a Tentaquil 26” electric bike for our 13 and 14 year olds. ru-vid.comUgkxUiL0GnyDjP32RJdd660sP8mZk4CRLTCJ The Vivi was much easier to put together. With the Vivi, there was a video link to assist with assembly which made the process easier to follow (we did put the handlebars on upside down, but it was a quick and easy fix). With the Tentaquil, the assembly was not as simple to follow, but after we messaged the company for an assembly video, it was easier and they did respond quickly. The other major differences were that the Vivi has a grip throttle on the right handle (like a motorcycle) and the Tentaquil has a push throttle that you use your thumb to activate. The monitors were also different, so if you’re looking for something specific in terms of changing the bikes functions, pay attention to what the monitor offers. We were really impressed with the overall quality and functionality of both bikes, but if you’re looking for more power and an easier assembly, definitely go with the Vivi!

@nicks6657 Год назад

Come assembled or do i have to put it together
