Wow, incredible review. Going to be hard for anyone to top this. SUPER detailed, tons of great ride footage, covers basically every aspect of the bike. And MAN does the bike look amazing.
This is a $4,000 bike so we are well into motorcycle territory here. I know the haters are going to say nobody cares but its worth mentioning for perspective.
@@randallhack4477I have a Billy Goat V2 and it goes 43 mph and my local dmv says that I don't have to get it registered or titled. I think Geico can insure it, have to call them tho.
Yes, you are supposed to have them registered if you ride them on the roads in my state at least. You can just get a warranty through the bike company they do full coverage and they renew it idk about this company though @randallhack4477
You style of speaking in the shop, then with bike rides showing the issues that you spoke about is a great approach to reviewing bikes. Keeps people interested much longer. Keep it up, and the subs will pile in. “You got me, and that’s not an easy to do” Rodney
I have watched so many videos on this bike, and yours hands down is the best and most detailed I’ve ever seen. Please keep up the great content. You have a new subscriber!
This bike is INSANE and your details on your review was INSANE! Thanks for your time on this. I can’t wait for the exact same bike to arrive! By the way, when I did a RU-vid search, I didn’t get your video from the search results. It was a link from an email. Just FYI.
@@thebikecave good timing for them. I've been searching for a bike that comes stock with a big battery built into it like the Aniioki and just upgrading the motor, controller, tires, and headlight. Or getting a Revv1 and upgrading everything also and running 2 batteries. Basically everything this bike has with more range. I'm glad to see a company finally coming out with something like this, it seems like it will set a benchmark for the industry. What's the price tag on one of these, and do they offer adding a bigger, or second battery?? I know you can put a load balancer on it and run 2, but I'm guessing that will void the warranty. Great video too by the way.
@thebikecave yeah, i mean something like a cetner console. Either way im debating if I should sell my bike for this. I heard it was supposed to be released today, but the site still has reservations up.
@@tiagothinks if you buy a reservation, you get a 15% discount ($3300) with free shipping and can order your bike today! The bike goes live for everyone else tomorrow… Not sure about the discount then…
Great looking bike! And the performance is awesome! I've no need for this since I own 130mph motorcycles. But, saved many accessory tires from Lyris cycles, THANKS AGAIN
Thanks for mentioning your height, what all E bike videos and websites fail to always mention is the height recommendation, I’m 5’4, and bought a bike that was meant for people 5’7 and taller. at the time I bought the bike, it had no mention of Height, so now I’m trying to sell it for a shorter one
I already own 2 Spark Cycle Works Bandits with dual batteries and I also have my eye on their new one the Brute but this Graffiti X seems to be one heck of a ride. Great job on this review my friend and continue bringing us content on the latest releases entering the PEV market.
You need either a different camera or different lens cause the one you're using makes it hard to tell the actual size or shape cause it warps the image.
I really like this bike and hopefully by the end of winter. I will have enough saved up. to afford it by then, buddy, and thank you, for You're honest review of this grate Ebike . im going to be working tords this Graffiti x Ebike, and i will have it just in time to ride all over the loging roads around my land and my Mile And a half long driveway buddy so thank u so much for all you do and Take care and have a great day in your next words.Wherever that might be buddy. 👊❤❤❤❤🤘😁🤘❤❤❤ and that's just the way it is when your Disabled. Lol
Can't believe that I watched the whole video. I just got a ebike for christmas recently. This would be a killer upgrade for me in a year or two when this one craps out.
Great review, but Lyric has a checkered relationship with the "pre-order" community. Once they have actual stock for delivery, as versus pre-order and wait, I will find this a viable option. I already did the whole pre-order thing with the Motor Goat v3, and faced delivery slippage to the tune of months. The truth is, the second battery option was paid for over 4 months ago, and it is still not delivered. I have learned the lesson on pre-orders to my core. I won't make the same mistake twice. Still, a great review and a desirable eBike. For those who don't already have a 40+ MPH eBike, it may be worth the wait. Right now, all the 40+ MPH (with pedals) eBikes are experiencing serious slippage on delivery (eCells, Wired Freedom, Goat Power bikes). So, perhaps this is simply par for the course. I do wish the Lyric X had a second battery option. It appears to have the space for another 20 Amp Hour of capacity.
The faster your bike, the more regulation you should be subjected to. People casually make 35mph bikes & call them e-bikes. That's legally a moped across all 50 states & would be subjected to registration, insurance, etc. Why are people afraid of paying more for doing more? I think this issues revolves around riders coming to terms with "e-bike" & "pedal-motorcycle". Treat it like a motorcycle/dirt bike & this solves 99% of an individuals concerns. I'd much rather have a no limit motor, pedals, & be treated like a vehicle, instead of being banned from everything because I act like a motorcycle & don't pay for it.
What is the best Ebike for the price end for the speed, reliability, and suspension for bouth the bake and frunt of the bike and one with torn signals and rear and frunt Lights ?
Nice review. The $4k price is just not working for me. That price is just too high for 35 mile range - hours to charge it back. I agree a new Versys 300 costs a bit more, but I know I can get a used one for about the same price and it's range is only gasoline limited and it can go on the freeway. Thanks!
Totally agree with you how dumb ebike laws are when you are limited to 20mph is way more dangerous than keeping with the flow of traffic speeds is much safer. Ebike law makers don't even ride ebikes. They don't know.
Hi … Great channel …. What bike would u recommend … I’m 6’4 and want to ride Around 100 mile range … two batteries …. And speeds of 20 to 37 mph …. Very dependable bike …. What’s your top three picks …. I’m in the Philippines !!! … Thanks
Yes, because we don't wanna register it, lol, and pay stupid insurance. This is a loophole. As soon as I see the cops I slow down and peddle, keeping at 25mph, but at night time, I'm letting it rip 45 down the road lol
great review you know youre stuff .i like the smooth acceleration but i suspect the settings are turned down quite a lot and theres more acceleration waiting .but why bother its smooth and control able. perfect for novices and the more experianced riders the usd forks are known to be great by design esp over chattery terrain .magura 4 piston brakes standard thats just perfect for those speeds .i might have to add one to my collection
Awesome bike! I had a Graffiti ordered but I decided to cancel it because lets all be real here guy's this thing isn't legal and "grey area" is just a nice way of saying it an't legal lol . I know it has an offroad mode and a 750w Class 3 E bike mode and all that jazz but that doesn't make it legal it's what the bike is capable of. It's more then 3 times the power of a normal ebike it's just not worth the hassle potantally getting pulled over by police on this thing and losing my DL plus a court date. The crackdowns on Surron's and other high powered ebikes are already here it's just a matter of time before the cops have this bike on their radar. It's not worth it to spend $4k on a bike to potantially have it confiscsted/ impounded or distroyed.
I have a similar eBike (eMoped technically). I am working through getting it registered for the road. The tags and excise taxes will be small. I already have liability insurance on it. The insurance was only $70 a year. This way, any concerns of being impounded are mitigated at a very low total price.
Im really into e bikes preferably surrons but watching this vid i believe I've found my first ebike im from Michigan (Detroit) m living in Michigan City Indiana n love this bike your review drew me n i work at four winds casino i believe ive found my new grinder build man imma go n grind it' up i really want this bike i just hope it comes n red n i wanna ask u what drove u to review e bikes id love to do what u do bro ive rode endless mongooses but thanks to u i can motivate myself to my goal my name is Anthony brody n i love Canada need to visit again soon
Could be more special with mag wheels. So it goes 50mph, like a motorcycle. But lacks mirrors which are VERY useful for staying alive or sizeable blinkers.
I never like the factory mirrors that come with eBikes. I go with better aftermarket mirrors. So factory mirrors (or the lack of them) is not an important factor for me. I go with the Meachow end of handlebar mirrors, as the view is not blocked by my shoulders.
@@thebikecave okay, that’s what I was trying to understand - other videos referred to regen, and showing the front brake and there’s obviously no regen motor in that front hub.
Have you reviewed the Motor Goat? How do you think this thing stacks up? I initially wanted the Graffiti X but you can only get them via pre-order and apparently people wait a long time. Plus Goat Power Bikes takes PayPal Credit 🤑
That's why you ride on the pavement you can go slow around people and get round and that's all you have to do if it goes on the road he's scared of getting clipped which is what I said and then you can get more damage
Not sure to be honest… it was a prototype bike I had and I didn’t want to mess with the settings too much. It felt fast enough for me. Any faster and you get sent backwards off the bike.
@thebikecave it's an extremely powerful controller that can easily be programmed to go faster but then the range will drop down significantly. I can see people building 72v batteries and putting on 8kw on these bikes using the same controller. 😂
It’s so strange that they have NINE speed levels between zero and twenty mph then it goes full blast up to 50 after that. Why not use some of those levels to cruise along at 28 or 32 or 35 mph so you don’t have to manage the throttle so much. Or does it have PAS levels for off road mode?
If you have your motorcycle endorsement, is it possible to register this ebike with DMV and ride this on the streets full bore like you do a motorcycle? Another 1K US and you can have a new Triumph 400. I dunno.
Seems pretty pricey for what it is. For 5 grand CDN you can buy a halfway decent used street motorcycle. I get you can ride on the bike paths with it but you're going to get dirty looks and Karens yelling at you everywhere you go and the police aren't going to care how slow you're going if they see you on them. Spending that kind of money on something that might well just get confiscated is scary. It looks well made though. However I wonder about getting 40 miles range on a 40 amp hour battery. Unless you were pinning the throttle the whole time that doesn't seem like much.
3.3k total after 15% off ordered this morning (no shipping no tax) When you want the best there is no comparison Oh and also fuck the state and license lol are you kidding that’s the most important part God thank you for not making me a loser in this life 🙏
@@ltserge3226 That's cool. I hope you like it. I am not a huge fan of those long seat cafe racer style bikes. I was basing my original price on Canuck money since I am from BC. I bought a motor goat V3 for $1200 less.
The most important thing on a bike like that is the brakes, then tires 2nd. And a 50mph bike with heavy tires still using mtn bike brakes is such a huge miss IMO.
I have 3 kick speeders.And now I want to sit down on one but I want one that goes at least forty hopefully faster and I really like this one has very good component and a big battery
Not bad next model hopefully 100 amp controller for possible 55 mph and mabey lfp battery and mirrors and the light spread on that headlight is not the greatest the brightness is good just not wide
The capacity is 350 pounds, which includes the weight of the bike. So approx 230-250 pounds for the rider / cargo without compromising performance of the motor and brakes. The bike has more than enough power to handle 350+ lbs rider/cargo, however it is unsafe as the brakes won't have the same stopping capacity, and the motor is at risk of overheating.
It has an adjustable 9 level pedal assist so you can tune down the power at lower levels. So if you want a leisurely cruise on a bike path, you can still feel some push back in the lower levels... so they do serve a purpose :)
