Hello I was wondering if you can change the LCD display on an ebike with a colored one?
1000 dollars 😭
Love electronic bikes 😄
New ebike owner and just subscribed to your channel. I hope to learn how to manage all the settings on the controller. I’m trying to set it to throttle only, so I can engage it when my legs get tired or to go over hills. The support for my bike is nonexistent.
Ride1up has better ebikes for just a little more than the one you recommend…
Which are the top two e-bike for uphill in your opinion? Thanks
Do any of these bikes have a torque instead of cadence sensor, throttle is not allowed where I live so that’s not a solution for a single speed with cadence like the radmission for example.
Or do you have any suggestion for a cheap bike with a torque sensor?
How much more expensive are fat tires compared to regular standard width? 🤔
Awesome presentation as always 😎
Love these reviews. You should review more cruiser style ebiks😊
Good video. Thank you!
I think my definition of "cheap" is a bit different from yours. LOL Good video, though!! Nice job.
I have the electric eb7
I’d love to have an e-bike to zip around Tel Aviv next time I get a chance to visit. Such a nice city.
500 watt e bike for 800.. diy for 300$ total with a 1500 kilowatt motor kit.. these bikes better be reliable costing that much n only going 20 mph? Anywho just saying
God knew that we weren’t perfect and couldn’t have fellowship with Him or that we could save ourselves so He sent His only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life He got nailed to the cross for you He got whipped and hit and he did it all for you. crucifixion was the worst death ever and He did it for you because He loves you. Now because of what Jesus did you can have a friendship with God u can be saved u can be forgiven be reconciliated with God be freed and more. Get right with God today 🙏Jesus is coming soon and we have to be ready
I think we have different ideas of budget..
On the 1st bike can you change out forks
Still high wtf 🤡🤡🤡
My hubby has seizures that arent controlled by medication. I’ve been thinking on something like this for him to have some mecodom of freedom.
I personally own a Gigabyke Swift and chose that over the Ride1Up Roadster due to the disc brake system vs caliper. It also has throttle which the roadster doesn’t have. they’re both same light weight only 3 lbs difference and both have single speed belt drive. but the Gigabyke uses Gate’s Belt Brand and the is some other generic brand. another thing too is the Gigabyke can take a wider knobby tires if you wish (approx 34mm wide) making it a potential flat bar gravel e-bike.
thanks for a great quality informative video. not sure what type I want yet but you are helping big time deciding…thanks
Can you please clarify technology vs performance comparison? Example, I would like a 750w or higher Bafang mid drive ( I weigh about 220lbs), but then I watched your video and others and for example say the Kalkhoff belt drive entry models and other belt drives I notices the motors/watts are all smaller and less wattage. This confuses me about real needs, but heard because they are so efficient the power can be smaller. I am trying to stay under 2k in my search if possible, 2.5-3k max price but have been looking at and considering something like Sonders Cruiser coming out, the DOST, Kalkhoff. I guess in the end I am looking for easiest DIY Maintenance, comfort ( My work is about 15 miles on rough city roads, and longest range. I know I am stretching it but I am a really frugal buyer and have been really reading so much I’d like a little clarification from a professional.
Thank you, I have been researching for a while.
What is your opinion of the Sondors Fold X?
Huge fan and I have learned so much with your channel. Thank you sir!
Can you do a best quality ( Avoiding Breaking Down ) or buy option in your opinion with mid drive commuter bikes between 1k-2k or closest price? Also what determines miles range? ( Mainly Battery aH?) I’m looking for a full size bike with larger 28" or larger tires. ( I am 54 and am looking for comfort, quality, and longest range per charge) Also, I think my state law is that it has to have pedal-assist, and max 25 mph ( But we can cheat on this a little. 🙂
Low $1000 bike
Excellent video with a lot of information, thanks for the suggestions. I can imagine that your books contain valuable information as well.
Nice video and great content. 🙂
None of these are cheap
I can get them for 300
Which is wat they cost
Great video!
I need an e bike with gears, I have many hills on my commute
How r these cheap
500 watt e bike for 800.. diy for 300$ total with a 1500 kilowatt motor kit.. these bikes better be reliable costing that much n only going 20 mph? Anywho just saying
Great informative video about affordable bikes. Just bought one and your info is very enlightening.
KBO Hurricane should have made this list before the roadster v2.
Great list thanks! I’ve been looking at the RadRunner but Is it possible to upgrade a single speed ebike to like a 6 speed?
Just counseled two friends to spend $4,600 each for Specialized e-bikes! Hope they feel it was worth the premium prices compared to these recommendations! 🙂
U can go all fancy but u just wasting money on those
Thank you for your help!
Can someone please help me with my ebike conversion kit 2000watt back wheel 48v battery it’s saying on the display motor /controller short-circuit fault
Hmm … And these bikes are cheap? Lmao
my old bike is much cheaper!

What’s wrong with the ancheer ebike. Under 800
Looking buy Electric bike kit for my bike do know any
I’ll throw out a recommendation: "Jueshuai 48V 500W Electric Bike Bicycle Mountain Ebike". Not really a mtn bike but a better general purpose bike. We have one that we’ve upgraded a little over time – PlanetBike fenders, a rear rack, blinky lights, Schwalbe Marathon tires when the original Kenda wore out (mostly for puncture resistance), a softer wider seat, Origin8 urban handlebars, etc. All small changes that happened as the need arose. We have had it several years now. 1500+ miles with no ebike problems at all. Just about all of its parts are commodity parts that are easy to find all over the web.
Please send the book for the electronic bike the you show in the vídeo okay thank very much
Which E-Bike would ya recommend for MT BIKING in Moderate Terrain ? Not Jumping Down Trees and Such !
