Finding the perfect ebike for your height and weight can be challenging. In this video heavier riders take ebikes for a test ride and we see how electric bikes perform with heavy riders. In this video we have riders ranging in weight from 250lbs to 400lbs. They will demonstrate how the bike performs with them on flat ground and hills. Ebikes for heavier riders can be tough to find, the EVRYjourney electric bike performs well with riders up to 400 pounds.

@@sixthreezeroHELP PLEASE - I enjoyed this video and I like your bikes. I went on your site to read reviews and was happy to see that 76% of the reviews were 5 ⭐s and those people seemed very happy with their bikes. There is only one real concern that is stopping me from driving down to your location and purchasing bikes for me and my wife. The fact that most of your 1⭐ reviews were from customers that were very unhappy with customer service and the untimely/delayed shipping of parts and supplies. If you have a minute please let me know your companies view on these issues. Great video and I really like your bikes. Thank You.

Thanks for the comment! We ship our parts out as soon as possible. Customer both need warranty parts and also purchasing on their own. We always maintain a healthy stock of replacement parts and warranty parts but at times we run out of stock and have to wait for the replacement parts to arrive. This sometimes causes delays of part shipping. We've improved this system and increased our parts supply to combat this issue! If you have any other questions please let us know!

@diceymaan Жыл бұрын

E-bikes are so great for us larger people to get us back to moving. And for smaller people it's just as much fan too! A tip for new riders, when you climb on top of the bike, engage the front brake to make sure your bike doesn't move when you jump on. This is something we learn in motorbike driver's license education here in Finland. Another thing you learn, which is good for bikes as well, is that going too slow makes it difficult to turn tight. If you are about to lose your balance, try a bit more speed next time (as long as it's not too fast or on slippery surface).

What a phenomenal video, and an excellent way to market your products! I haven't seen this from competitors, likely because they don't want to show riders who don't fit their vibe and/or who exceed their warrantied weight limits. But we, too, want to ride - and we, too, have money. Most of us understand that warranties rarely apply to us, and being able to SEE heavy folks on an aesthetically pleasing e-bike that works with our bodies is better than reading about it. Anyway, thanks for making this :)

This was incredible and pure joy to watch. It brought back memories of when I first bought my e-bike. I literally couldn't get off it! It became my lifeline during my depression and anxiety struggles. I spent countless hours riding around Central Park in NYC. It helped me lose a significant amount of weight, and more importantly, I felt active, happy, and saw a big improvement in my mental health. Unfortunately, I had to sell it when I lost my job. That led to another bout of depression, and without my e-bike, I struggled to find other activities to stay active. It was a tough time. Thankfully, I'm going back to work soon, even though I'm broke for now (haha). But once I start working and save some money, the first thing I'm getting is another electric bike. They're truly amazing for staying active and boosting mental health. I actually wish the government could somehow subsidize e-bikes for people who need them most.

@rossmacintosh5652 Жыл бұрын

Hi Ricardo! I'm a relatively new e-bike user. One observation I want to share with you is I've discovered that having the motor actually increases my riding confidence. Getting going on an e-bike from a stop can be much easier than an un-powered bike. One thing about riding with pedal assist that many non-users (or new users) might not understand is the power delivery cuts out anytime the user stops pedaling. It also cuts out anytime the brakes are engaged. When riding with pedal assist engaged, you can actually coast to a stop (if not going down a hill) simply by ceasing your pedaling. A little practice in an empty parking lot makes a big difference in getting used to an e-bike and getting comfortable with its performance.

The thing I always struggled with on bikes was the seat height. I'm 6'7, 450 pounds so anytime I would get on a bike and set the seat high enough the lock on the seat post would either snap or just not work and I would go slamming down, and then the seat would tilt all the way back and throw me off basically making the whole thing unrideable.

All the ebikes I seen online say max weight 265lbs (120kg). So it is refreshing and really motivating to see heavier people can actually still use them. I am 264 and I want to bring my child on it too who is 60lbs but I have been scared it will break down because of going beyond maximum weight. Thank you for this video now I want an ebike

Just my 2c, as a heavy rider: 6'1", 320, 64yo, 3 joint replacements; I ride bikes with conversion kits installed (I'm a former bike wrench). 1000w/48v, top end 28mph, range about 12mi on throttle only. I'm a longtime rider, haven't ridden more than a couple miles to the park with grandsons since retiring 3-1/2 years ago. I'm in such abysmal shape right now that my ONE NY resolution is more time pedaling. When the weather breaks (Great Lakes region). I have 2 ebikes -- the 1000w I mentioned, w/ 7 speeds, and a 1500w single speed. I'm planning on making the single a 7 as well. Shorter ranges, but the converted bike will be about half the price of a turnkey bike. And I'm picky about parts! Lol

My question is, how much range wjll i have, the battery is 48 volts 10.5 AH.?

@bigguy1403 3 ай бұрын

Depends on how much you use throttle assist. The more you peddle and less full throttle you save battery time. you'll get probably 25 miles on a 1000 watt battery and motor.

Hi sixthreezero team, I looked at your website after watching this video but found your bikes described there as rated for a maximum of 300 pound riders - including the bikes you've demonstrated in this video. Are you able to clarify what the weight capacity of your bikes like the EVRYJourney are, please?

@sixthreezero Жыл бұрын

Great question, we warranty our bikes up to 300lbs, but the weight capacity is 450lbs. The additional weight on the bike may require some things to be replaced sooner than usual, like spokes and seats. But the frame will hold up no problem.
