This Electric BIKE / MOPED is GENIUS! - Eskuta SX-250 Series 3
This is the Eskuta sx-250 series 3 and it is fantastic! Motorcycle grade components to make it basically a moped that's legal for 14 year olds to ride. But is so much more than transport for kids. The SX250 would be perfect for older riders who want to get mobile again but want the security of moped features like turn signals, amazing hydraulic disc brakes and fantastic suspension, as well as the helping hand given by the motor.
This is the Eskuta SX-250 series 3 and it is great!
This will not be the last time the Eskuta SX-250 is featured on this channel so make sure you subscribe if you want to see more or other awesome e-mobility content.

At 15 miles per hour, when my e-bike flipped over, I broke my arm and fractured my skull. Now, after almost a month off work, I have a titanium plate in my arm and still a lot of pain every day. I was lucky to get out of it with my eyesight intact and no broken vertebrae or bleeding on the brain. I don't blame the bike for this and am itching to get out to ride again, but I won't be allowed to until August. That was at 15 miles per hour. Imagine how much worse all of that probably would have been if I'd been going faster. I love my e-bikes and scooters and wouldn't be without them but, please, before going on about how much better they'd be if they went faster - maybe even making people want to mod their machines - think about how badly that extra speed can make things go. Speed isn't everything and at faster speeds, they are just not safe.

@esegoldberg Год назад

Sorry about your accident. I had a motorcycle accident back in 2015, got run over by a distracted driver who was totally at fault for running a stop sign. I had my safety gear on(helmet, gloves, jacket, chaps, boots) but I still have to have neck Micro-fracture surgery(12 screws in my neck.) as well as a plate on my left ankle and some internal surgeries. I recently ordered a DYU D3F e-bike that I plan on riding slowly on sidewalks and against traffic when I have to get on the roadway, which hopefully won't be often(I live in a small town in South Texas. Whataburger is 1.5 miles away...:)). I think that with all the distracted drivers out there, older folks like me(I'll be 65 in July, God willing) are better off staying off of roadways, using an e-bike that is not fast, easy to get on/off of, that also gives us the ability to pedal, and has a good range. I'm not riding the DYU until my skating helmet that has a front and rear lights arrives. I'm looking forward to getting back on 2 wheels(I have a couple of recumbent adult tricycles that I ride on bike paths.).

I came off downhill at 34mph when my front wheel folded . If i was not in full winter gear with two hats on i wouldn't be posting this . I knew i had worn the front wheel past its brake wear grooves but i kept putting it off ...I was head to toe bruised and had a knee bursa for months . New wheel now! but i do worry about these 30..40mph ebikes everywhere . I did speak to a policeman who did say they were illegal but unless you were a dick on one there was very little if any enforcement. I have a 250w road legal switch but in UK the throttle makes it illegal anyway yet there a million times better than pedal assist.

yep couldn't agree with you more. its the speed that is the bit people in general are bothered about. 15mph is more than reasonable if we are going to keep giving these things the same rights as pushbikes get. or letting school kids use them. the motor power is irrelevant.

You can only have a throttle on a bike bought in 2016 or later if it assists the rider without pedalling at a maximum of 6km/h (3.7 mph). These "twist and go" throttles are designed to help people who have difficulty starting due to injury or disability

I use a dewalt battery in a "power wheel adapter" of temu for my peripherals... high power battery, quick charge and I have 5 of them i can just swap out with and they fit perfectly in the glovebox with a couple of relays :P

@WoodomainJeremyBroun Год назад

I agree but ut I understand they are illegal now? I have just ordered this ebike and am nervous about the strange way it is controlled. Twist and throttle gives optimum control when occasional riding on a pavement which I have to in parts of my city because kerbside potholes are so dangerous.

@startingfingerstyle Год назад

This looks amazing. I'm guessing it's more of a commuter bike than a tourer of any description. I currently have a standard electric bike which I use around town going to and from my part time work three or four times a week. I love the bike, but don't always feel especially safe. I've given up trying to navigate roundabouts on it, as I might as well have a target on my back. The fact that this looks a bit more substantial and has indicators might improve my confidence a little. The big disappointment I have with my electric is that I get nowhere even close to the range it claims to have. Have you yet done the in depth review of this one? If not can you (or any other kind reader) tell me roughly how far (town use) this would go on a full charge? The price, by the way, seemed pretty good to me!

@ashpunting Год назад

I can't wait for the full review it looks interesting, but I do like to use my throttle when I can get away with it 😊

@zivkovicable Год назад

All good unless you are involved in a collision...You'll be liable wether it was your fault or not, even if you weren't using the throttle at the time. Say a pedestrian jumps out from behind a car with no warning, you both end up in hospital, you will be held liable for injury and damages...As long as you know.

@JH-ty3ic Год назад

The reason you had difficulty cycling in that alleyway, is cos it was a " No Cycles" footpath! A good idea to concentrate on the signs when traveling and then do "piece to camera" when stationary.

This would only be of benefit to 14yr olds with wealthy parents. For me it’s the price that’s a put off, £1700 for a 250watt, for £1700 I could get a really useable 50cc scooter with tax, MOT, CBT training all paid for doing 30mph completely pedal free.

I foresee these becoming a problem. In your video you were bombing along the footpath. But what if a small child or a dog was to come from a blind spot you would be knackered and then what would the implication be for you and the third party's? Insurance is a must! and prohibited from using footpaths. Also by some of the comments overclocking these machines, will have serious consequences.

@e-VRC Год назад

They should definitely be off the footpath. I try to stick to the road unless cars are seeming particularly crazy. These things go 15.5 mph which is slower than a 15 y/o rides a pushbike. Accidents could definitely happen though just like they could with pushbikes. I'd be happy to have insurance though if we could then ride ebikes with fewer restrictions. As long as it's the person that's insured not the bike. It would make it very hard to be an ebike reviewer otherwise.

Hi bruv, I bought a eskuta sx250 mainly on your first road test over a year ago. Among other things I carry it on the back of my motorhome so I can get down the shops for my paper. I’m trying to find how to connect up a hand throttle as this would make life much easier and safe. Do you or anybody put out a proper video showing how to make the wiring connections. I’m 75 years old and don’t give a toss what the police might say.. one spotty copper questioned my number plate (OLD GIT). I just told him to go forth and multiply or I would tell his mum that he was out being a tosser again. Best regards Pat the loon.

@e-VRC 2 месяца назад

haha that's funny. I didn't try adding the throttle and don't remember if there are any videos. I imagine the green button could be replaced with a throttle then it's a case of just enabling full throttle somehow through the computer.

@rodericde876 Год назад

E-bike laws are not “mental”. They are intended to keep E-bike capabilities close to those of bicycles. Bicycles, including E-bikes, can be ridden on the road without type approval for the vehicle or license and insurance for the rider. If you want to go faster buy a type approved vehicle, get a license to ride it and pay for insurance. Then you can have your safe handling, adequately braked fast E-bike and not be a liability to other road users and pedestrians.

@paulhanson6008 Год назад

Enjoyed the review. The peddling style looks a bit unnatural to me and the lack lustre power going up, what appears to be; a gentle hill climb would concern me. I purchased a relatively low cost (£400) 2nd hand Giant ebike and it’s had no problems getting up much steeper hills, even at the lowest power mode! The Eskuta does look comfortable and I like the suspension and other moped related gear and comfort.👍

@e-VRC Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it. The hill in this video is about 12% and 750w ebikes and 800w scooters have failed to get up it on throttle only. When i did it on the eskuta I was pressing the green button rather than pedalling and I'd forgotten it only works under 6kph. I'll do it again soon with the pedals to compare. But still impressed it got up when others didn't.

@e-VRC Год назад

@HDsharp about 100kgs. 12 degrees is actually pretty steep. But this hill isn't even 12 degrees it's 12% which is around 7 degrees. But in the real world it's a tough hill. No one ever cycles up it. Check out my second to last video about escooters and hill climbing. Ebikes do get up easy with pedalling but they really struggle without human help.

@paulhanson6008 Год назад

@@e-VRC My Giant Hybrid Escape 2 bike is pretty heavy by modern standards! The sync drive rear wheel hub motor would “easily” enable me to ride up a hill of that incline, and even steeper if required. Although you are correct in saying the rider needs to pedal, from experience; the effort required is minimal, even in the lowest power mode (Eco). My bike is that good, I could climb a steep hill with no “run up”, even when the bike starts off in a high gear. If I drop down to say 2nd gear and let the bike slow down, as soon as I “gently” pedal, the motor kicks in and enables me to climb most hills. If I chose to select “sport” mode, the bike could accelerate up most hills enabling me to shift up to one of the highest gears (say 5 or 6). My understanding is the motor works on torque, not cadence.

It's 250w and 36v.... puny but in the real world of getting about town with shopping it's top marks... Disclaimer, I am a racing cyclist as well as the old guy on an ebike... but the average Joe untrained might be able to sustain 150w for an hour, 400w combined is elite level cyclist.

14 year olds are meant to ride on the road. All bikes should be on the road at all times unless ridden by a rider 10 years or younger. Of course people don't all stick to that mainly because if you're going slow on a pavement no one ever gets into trouble for it. I shouldn't really have been on the pavement in this video but the bike itself and the camera making me look quicker than I am makes it look worse.

@hamshackleton Год назад

Looks nice, but it needs a twist-grip throttle, not just an on/off switch, so you can go slowly, for getting through tight squeezes etc, as well as flat out. 25 - 30 mph would be more practical. A 49cc rev-n-rip will go 30, and more, if you know how to tweak it!

It says its 250W for legal purposes and is restricted as such. electric motors for a CE or CA certification needs to be able to withstand a legal minimum of 1000v... now add that in with the 26Ah battery and well, you do the math my friend

How weight is the e-bike

@Here_is_Waldo Год назад

I have a 250w e-bike and it really is great, but I stand by my opinion that the 25km/h limit is too slow. By myself I can pedal the bike at 35km/h, and that feels like a good speed. Covers ground quickly, but still slow enough to avoid danger. 25 just feels too slow.

@whilesey 11 месяцев назад

why not more info on the spec of it ? Battery amps , what speed down a steep hill will it go faster than 15 mph ?, are there plans for knee wind deflectors ,,, put the machine on a tester to see the exact spec otherwise test video seems ok

@KorAllRBare Год назад

Here in "Ass~Trail~Ya" we have had scooters on the local TV news channels with recordings of them whizzing past Cars going the maximum speeds 100~110Km/h on our freeways.. Needless to say the fines if now caught on a scooter going faster than 60 Kilometre's an hour have been jacked up..

Where can i buy a second hand Escuta SX250 for a really cheap price? I think it's too expensive for around £1,750 brand new. I can buy a second hand 125cc motorcycle for less than £1,000.

@psocretes8183 Год назад

I read up about the 250 watt thing. According to an expert in these things it's a misnomer. All that means is that the manufacturer has tested it by running it for a certain time and it doesn't overheat. So in theory you could have a 1000 watt motor and call it a 250 watt. There are commercial cargo cycles that carry massive amounts of weight and an ordinary 250 watt motor wouldn't pull the weight so that's how they get around it. What you need is torque to get up hills. And a bigger battery/voltage for distance. For the price that's not bad (

@e-VRC Год назад

Yeah that's probably what's happened here. It needs that power as you say, it's 54kg so your average 250w motor would struggle to move it let alone get it up a hill.

@tooyoungtobeold8756 Год назад

What is the point of pedalling if pedalling doesn't do anything? Does it recharge the battery perhaps? And if pedalling doesn't help, you would have to push it up a hill.

@e-VRC Год назад

The only point of pedaling is that there's a law that to qualify as an ebike and therefore not need insurance or registering the power delivery has to come from turning the pedals. The pedals on this don't really assist you with power at all.

You have to be pedalling at all times. You aren't really doing any work yourself. It's like a pedal activated throttle.

Stuck a longer seatpost on it, air rear shock and adjustable stem. Could do with better brakes, better front forks and changing to a single speed. Electric=game changer!

@shm5547 Год назад

You can legally have a throttle on a 250W e-bike in the UK (but not in the EU). I'm not sure why they don't sell a throttle for these in the UK.

@e-VRC Год назад

The throttle can only take the bike up to 6kph in the uk so bike companies don't bother putting the throttle on. I wish they still would as the initial start can be helpful as with the green button on the eskuta.

@@e-VRC you can get it type approved as a 250W LPM for £55 with a government MSVA inspection. All it needs are front/rear lights, a stand if over 35kg and you can legally have a full throttle, with it still being classed as a bicycle.

The rules for were grey to begin with but the ruling now is that the maximum output so peak power not nomial power is 250W, if it can pull 400w then its a motorbike not a pedal assist

I use the mediamod on my gopro 9 which allows me to plug in an external mic but you could just get one for your phone and record sound there and edit together later.

@e-VRC Год назад

It's because normal bikes can easily go faster than 15.5 and sometimes it's harder to go over 15.5 on an ebike. It's impossible to go over 15.5.on this. But ebikes can also be taken to parks etc which is nice but obviously proper mopeds can't.
