After recently buying and riding the New VoltBike Mariner, I want to give you my thoughts on the bike.
In the video, I said I had it for a month but in reality, I had it for a while. I prerecorded some footage then once the controller died on me, I thought it won't be right to post this right after so I held the video back!
If You have any other questions about the bike and experience don't be shy, ask them in the comments.

@@ameerally additional info worth considering : although the Abus link lock is very good comparatively it CAN be cut at the link pins fairly easily - am guessing similar problem with the Volt lock but haven't seen any info regards that yet - another reason why i prefer the long albeit heavy hardened steel Abus or similar chain lock ; perhaps a good idea to get a lock with bike replacement warranty [ Kryptonite used to have this but now ??? ]

@@jconearth6686 Kryptonite warranty doesn't apply if they use power tools to break their locks; seems pretty ironic, since without power tools their locks shouldn't fail. I'm looking into bike insurance.

Darn shame about the stolen bike, and lack of water proofness on the control module. Thanks for your impressions! I am leaning towards the Voltbike Urban, for the reduced weight up and down my narrow staircase. Unfortunately, Voltbike had been out of stock. Looking forward to your wintertime observations!

@HamidShibataBennett
@HamidShibataBennett 6 лет назад
I've been watching a lot of reviews from Electric Bike Review and I like how Voltbike has taken much of the critique and updated the 2018 line. And, it seems like a very good cost to performance ratio. Keep up the great work Ameer!

I really appreciate the review. Mine is on a truck to me as I type this. Since you had a negative experience with theft, what kind of lock did you go with? Since it is a fat bike would you recommend the longer U locks over the standard?

Gabriel Staples I'm using a longer 14mm ulock series 4 from kyponite. Seems to do the trick for the moment

Hi Ameer nice review, I am curious to know how was your previous Mariner stolen ? They angle grind you lock ? You had a good quality lock ? I am thinking of buying a Mariner as well and I also live in the Montreal area. Thanks !
@ameerally
@ameerally 5 лет назад
I had a bad lock, it was easy to get through it. I also made the mistake of parking it in the same place every couple of days so people figure out when and where I left my bike.

Hello again Ameer, i was wondering if you could help to clarify some confusing info from Voltbike's online page for me? On the site, for the Mariner 2018 is written that the battery included is a 48w 14.5Ah battery, but right next to this is an image of a samsung cell of 11.6Ah. Which did you get? It seems like a leftover picture from updating the page of an older model but it would be nice to have a clear picture. :)
@ameerally
@ameerally 6 лет назад
I got 11.6ah 48v

Sweet, thanks for the overview and pointing out that damn latch flaw. By the way, how quickly can you reach peek max speeds 32kph-ish on this one with a relatively flat surface? I live in Villeray and commute to Ubi StLaurent daily so its mostly flat but has quite a bit of red rights on the way which makes it tedious to stop and go all the time. Really like the compact format but i do want something with enough kick to accelerate to mid 20's for traveling with trafic.

@ameerally 6 лет назад
Hot_Drop_O'Clock volt bike says it's pelt assist but it's more pedeal activate, it's takes under 3 secs to reach top speed. Don't work about traffic lights, with the bike the field of view is double than a car.

Thanks for posting this. I've been looking around for the past couple of months for a used e-bike, or perhaps something new that isn't too expensive (in Montreal)... Found a Mariner this morning on kijiji, and now googling around for more info. Theft has been a MAJOR concern of mine in MTL... I've had regular rusted up mountain bikes stolen right off my balcony before, so I'm just curious, what area and time of day, type of lock, locked up to what exactly, etc etc etc... how did it happen? Thanks for any further info on your experience that you can provide. Cheers!
@ameerally
@ameerally 5 лет назад
I had my bike stolen when I was at work at hochelaga, (where most bikes get stolen), funny then is a year later I see my same bike on kjiji for 300 bucks with no battery... As for locks, to be honest most locks are useless against the right tools, but I have been using 2 locks when I leave my battery on the bike. So far so good, I have seen people try to steal the battery but no luck. I hope you enjoy your new bike fellow montrealer

Just curious, had you looked at the RAD POWER Rad Mini Fat Tire Folder, in comparison, before purchasing the Mariner? Had wanted your comparison thoughts. Also, pretty much all eBikes are at that weight, unless you get a flimsy, more about "Cool Euro Looking" one. Thanks!
@ameerally
@ameerally 5 лет назад
Hello sorry for the late reply! I loved the rad mini but the only problem at the time was they didn't ship the bike for cheap and it didn't come with front and rear fenders. which was why I went for voltbike Mariner instead. I've been using the Mariner all season and it's hasn't let me down yet. Just the motor screams whens it's cold outside.
