@VelotricEbike Год назад

Great review, thanks Micah! EBikes For Good is a great initiative and we're glad that the Nomad 1 here is going to a good home and get some proper use. Good luck to everyone joining the giveaway!

@ggebhard1 Год назад

How kind of you to give bikes to others who could really use one. I hope you find all honest people. You’ll be rewarded for your kindness, many times over!

@Jim.e.Whitten Год назад

I have owned my Nomad for awhile now and Love It! I have a Mango Step-Thru. I love the bright color! People can see me a lot easier.

@mikesmicroshop4385 Год назад

Don't let them push you around, I like the Yellow too!!!! :) I also like the top loading of the battery. I use to think that the bottom was better because water would be less likely to collect, but a friend had his bottom battery fall out which caused him to have a really bad accident. He hit the ground hard and ended up with a broken collarbone.

@PantherU Год назад

Holy crap I hope he's ok

@ggebhard1 Год назад

I agree, that yellow is sharp! I like your reviews, because they’re quick, honest and to the point! Thanks!!

@tymill Год назад

Bright colours are the way to go. I'd also advocate for marine solas rated reflective tape too.

@doningle9352 Год назад

Oh man what a beautiful bike! A bright bike is easier for motorists to see, making it inherently safer for its rider!

@speedstrn Год назад

Pro tip: since you don't need to really carry an all-in-one tool like someone going on a long bike ride, a great way to save your wrists and time would be to get a cheap electric screwdriver and a bit set that includes at least 3, 4, and 5mm hex bits.

@sebas90250 Год назад

Construction zone yellow makes the bike 125% safer

@VelotricEbike Год назад

@deansmits006 Год назад

Yes. But that's less true in areas with real bike infrastructure. That's a whole other video though

@BryanLWeier Год назад

I clicked on the link, but only got the "Something went wrong" message on YT... Thank you Micah for your videos, always enjoy seeing the different styles colors and drive trains... L'Chaim

@saber1able Год назад

I like the fact that the price of Ebikes is coming down, although still a bit over my budget. I wouldn't normally buy a yellow bike but this one actually looks really good with the yellow/black color scheme.

@ZERUS1648 Год назад

Black bikes are great for eluding zombies. The bright colors scream out, eat me!😂 Thanks for the review.👍🏼

@Hobbies4Hire Год назад

Great job on the video Micah! Thanks for making it.

@googleuser2170 Год назад

Nice to see some affordable e-bikes with style. Clean design, no tacked on looking battery pack, cool colors.

@singlespeed2760 Год назад

Your unboxing videos are always entertaining. Would love see a video of you repacking/reboxing a bike for shipping to the new owner! Nice bike and video.

@IAMSatisfied Год назад

I agree, of all the bright ebike colors this yellow is perfect. Thanks for the review, Micah!

@EBikeBuilder_ Год назад

Seems like a good value, i Like the yellow. I think the 'fake mid drive boxes' are becoming popular because downtubes with internal batteries are so chunky. Seems like its easier to build and more structurally sound with the fake mid drive box. I'm not a big fan of that look either but theres a reason they do it i suppose

@mrc1436 Год назад

The Velotrics can be turned up to 25 mph in throttle and pedal assist!

@wayne-oo Год назад

Love the yellow bike !

@Doc1855 Год назад

I bought an electric assisted bike last year. We live 5 miles from town (down the mountain). We live so far from town that we have to drive to the post office and pick up my 85 year old dad’s medicine. We bought the bike so I can ride it into town but need assistance coming home. Some of the “S” curves are blind so I have to change into oncoming lane to stay safe.

@ramonpadilla2607 Год назад

That yellow looks amazon on that e-bike! The contrast between the black and the yellow, yellow jacket hornet e-bike...

@joannwelch6991 Год назад

Love the color.. Like a ray of sunshine ..

@GreggPolicari Год назад

Just started watching your videos, pretty extensive on your testing, keep up the good work!

@Xtrafix2015 Год назад

It’s a great mango adventure bike, but you read my mind about the awkward controller box in the middle and I love the color and the price is good enough

@larrycox6614 Год назад

Velocity + Electric = Velotric? Love the yellow... like bubble bee transformer 😂😂

@NerainerRidgeway Год назад

Yellow is such a happy colour, i t looks fun and bright! A real advertisement for Ebikes as it stands out. I like your reviews, they’re quick, honest and to the point! Thanks!!

@kgsalvage6306 Год назад

That sure is yellow. I wouldn't mind that at all. I love that you are giving away some Ebikes. I got my fingers crossed.

@riyamandal5836 Год назад

Really like the concept of E-bikes and solar power use, these kind of knowledge will help us to build a sustainable future someday!

@jaybae4770 Год назад

This e-bike looks awesome.

@Coweyes2069........ Год назад

Good review mate like always and great looking bike too....And i like the bright colours myself.......That yellow really pops mate.......

@DesuVR Год назад

Something that slightly bugs me, why do pretty much all ebike makers mount the headlight on the lower part of the suspension where there's the most amount of vibrations? Why not mount it to the upper part where most impacts are dampended out? I've been dealing with my 'upgraded' headlight coming loose because of how heavy it is so little things like the mounting location have become more apparent to me.

@johnbowser2612 Год назад

i LIKE THE yELLOW ALSO same color as my favorite bike growing up. I plan on putting together a e trike eventually to get around town.retired, then had a stroke i could possibly use a step through bike .I still have 1 good leg to supprt myself with

@AmayaMilton 10 месяцев назад

Velotric has a policy of not posting negative reviews on its website. However, I purchased two bikes and left a one-star review for my purchased. After that, Velotric sent me an email stating that they reserve the right to select which reviews to post and which ones not to post. Thus, it is important for buyers to be aware of this policy.

@ranig2848 Год назад

Would love to see a new video for entry level (cheap?) ebikes. Your last video is 2 years old and it's very likely many thing have changes (esp considering covid supplies etc). Thank you and Toda! 🙏

@RidingDirtyAdventures Год назад

I really like this ebike... love the yellow and black combo... this thing is sweet looking.... the UL listing is great to see...

@MercuryOneOne Год назад

E-bikes for good = Micah is awesome. Very nice!

@BrandonSmith-ox1pw Год назад

That yellow in that bike looks good but im sure it looks better in person

@stanschloesser6725 Год назад

Cool that you’re giving e-bikes away. Good for you!

@hemaccabe4292 Год назад

Nice bike, but I’m looking for more of a cargo bike with a mid drive. Love that yellow.

@SaucySpecial Год назад

I agree with you on the bright colors for bikes

@hemaccabe4292 Год назад

Don't worry about the grounds crew. It's cool.

@ImageMaven Год назад

I have to say one of the selling features of my Elby was that it came in orange!

@osomugroso1 Год назад

Good job on this review! Yes the color makes that bike pop out!

@nickh3064 Год назад

I think building your own bike is where it's at!

@kylepriest6245 Год назад

I agree with you about the bikes needing to have colors

@sproutdaplanet1518 Год назад

I used to have a car that color. I'm so glad bike manufacturers are adding more choices.

@DLRich1 Год назад

That is so cool to just give a bike to someone. And a free book. Sweet!

@paulbouldin6677 5 месяцев назад

I also love that color...is there any way to upgrade the speed limit via programming? Another great video!!

@KyleKick909 Год назад

I like that yellow. But I also pick bright colors when buying a car.

@josephpiskac2781 Год назад

Love the Yellow!

@yehoshua2099 Год назад

Can you make a video about how to calculate the range of an electric skatebored?

@pennyanderniedogplay1628 Год назад

Great review! Maybe you could a Vedic on E-bike fat tire for Short 5 ft 2 or below? There are not many options, keep up with the good work!

@gobenny3348 Год назад

The yellow looks nice

@GG-ud1ib Год назад

I love the color as well.

@cruzingmax Год назад

I'd ride that bright yellow!

@hemaccabe4292 Год назад

I like the hydraulic disc brakes, UL battery and front fork.

@turkeyssr Год назад

Great video! It's nice that you're having a give away contest. Thanks!

@twokosher Год назад

This is very nice e-bike , love the color 12:56

@MortyFoodReviews Год назад

I love the color of this bike.

@newbie101 Год назад

Great color and good visibility for safety.

@sociopathmercenary Год назад

The discovery and the nomad are both unlockable for class 3. You just email support and they send you instructions

@bellyacres7846 Год назад

cool, that is good to know. thank you

@tonysamples840 Год назад

I ALSO LIKE THE COLOR CHOICE.

@hemaccabe4292 Год назад

Lotta nice tools come with the bike.

@denislostinlondon199 Год назад

The brighter the better.

@kiriakosmelissinas81 Год назад

This is a pretty decent one! Nice video. Always look forward to your videos, including chang Li truck videos! The boat was super dope as well 😅

@mrparrotman03 Год назад

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!

@markreagan5071 Год назад

Nice Color....keep giving them away

@BrienDunn Год назад

Yah! Always enjoy your vids and find the information super useful. Wondering what your absolute favorite is nowadays?

@junaidtariq612 Год назад

Seems like a fun bike and I love that 🥭 yellow colorway!

@bellyacres7846 Год назад

hey I actually prefer the brighter color. my bikes have been black od the last bike is dark green/black and it can be hard to find when left by the trail as walking is often a way to step out there to see the lake, river or whats under that tree over there? Ive actually lost my bike a couple times and required a bit of looking to find it again. lol

@andreheinz1942 Год назад

That's a real sweet bike!

@michaelbedard7859 Год назад

Great color. 100%

@ronrae4029 Год назад

Nice touch in giveaways.

@Stryford1 Год назад

There are many other e-bikes that are less expensive that are class 3 (28 mph) bikes so I don't understand what Velotric is afraid of. Maybe there's a code to unlock the higher top speed? Either way, it's a good looking bike and it's nice that it has hydraulic brakes.

@deansmits006 Год назад

Yeah, 25mph is odd. Not much difference in safety, I doubt that it would add that much more wear and tear to drivetrain components. Considering the size of the bike and it's a "dual-sport" style, maybe they don't think customers will hit that door much anyway?

@KD-nj4fj Год назад

really cool bike ! Looks very well built .

@mikemathis3936 Год назад

The festive Mango color does make the bike seem a little happier than a bike wearing dour colors. One aesthetic that I kind of enjoy on that bike is how they have stylized the stem to look very sleek . So much so that until you tightened the headset I thought that they were using threaded forks. Most threadless headset bikes still tend to look more industrial and chunky above the headset than the Nomad does. Im not a fan of the way they made the seat tube in the shape of an Alsace wine bottle though. It just looks like there would be less engagement with the seat post than I want to see or think about.

I'd probably go for the DIY solar. Interesting stuff. - John G

@lolilollolilol7773 Год назад

There are several videos about how products and our environment were much more colorful in the 1980s than today. It's quite fascinating. Search for example "Has the World Become Less Colourful?". If you look around you, you'll see that grey and black make up a large % of cars (while Tesla has gone resolutely white) but also clothes and even buildings. It used to be a minority. Bring back the colors !

@Familyadventure369 Год назад

This bikes color is awesome

@TheFeist77 Год назад

congrats ricardo

@joeminter Год назад

Nice bike, nice color!

@TurboEverything Год назад

Seems pretty good. I've been looking at these to buy at some point. Definitely cool.

@gregsmith1116 Год назад

Thanks for the Video! Nice Bike. I really like fat tire bikes, but I don't have an e-bike with fat tires. The Velotronic bike seems really good!

@Hazdazos Год назад

That's a sharp looking bike and love the color.

@hemaccabe4292 Год назад

They make any of these things not crazy fat tire and with a mid-drive?

@biredbison Год назад

I like the bike but in my case need step thru. I been watching you and other here on You tube I am trying to save up enough to buy an ebike. I will be 65 in few days being on fixed income its hard yet the bike will be my main wheels to get around. The Car market is beyond affordable for me now. I need a cargo so can get food and other things. Till I got enough funds still exploring all bikes to educate self on them. For me its not the speed like some want I want something with good distance good hill climing cause alot of hills in my small town of 8000. Also hope one that can get me to city and back 20 miles from my home. Thanks for all you do!

@arelkay730 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the vid. Some advice from someone who watches a lot of them - the background "music " is not needed and actually is irritating.

@neutronpcxt372 Год назад

Hello Micha. I have an interesting question for you if you see this reply: do you think fat tire bike manufacturers should start offering thinner tire options for the same bikes? There are a lot of great fat tires ebikes that would be wonderful normal tire ebikes.

@StuffTested Год назад

Most people don't need fat tires anyways so many manufacturers would be smart to see if non-fat tires sell. Plus easier to find tires and most likely other accessories too.

@chuckles470s9 Год назад

Love the color 👍

@patrickvernae Год назад

Informative quality content as always. I hope you can review the dual motor Vanmoof V when it releases. Thanks for all you do

@robertoh1354 Год назад

Not crazy about the yellow, but a green or blue would be sharp.

@tubaman66 Год назад

The older of us here in the UK might call that colour 'corporation yellow' as it's pretty much the colour that a lot of public utility vehicles used to be. I think it's a great colour by the way.

@MrMeow-iq7kq Год назад

it looks like caution tape to me.

@rrich52806 Год назад

Nice review

@hemaccabe4292 Год назад

I like the lower price and no rack, which would allow me to pick a Topeak rack.

@danjarrett Год назад

That is a very Nice Bike. Thanks for Sharing.

@ursanbear Год назад

Between this and the Fucare Libra, which would you prefer? I'm looking to get my first ebike and I've narrowed it down to these two. I have the double whammy of an auto accident several years ago and a hip injury repairing said car. An ebike seems to be the best way for me to get out and see the nature sites around my home.

@EbikeSchool Год назад

They def prefer two different environments. For city riding the Fucare Libra is probably better. If you do more off-road riding, then the 26” tires and better pedaling geometry make the Nomad better, in my opinion.

@jenslyn42 Год назад

I think black is a terrible colour for a bike, scratches and dirt will be easily visible, and it would look so boring. I'm not sure I'd go full yellow, but I agree that colours is the way to go :D
