@apevowner761 2 жыл бұрын

I used to own the Pedal Electric All Wheel Drive and it was okay. I guess my bike was incorrectly programmed as the bike was only able to hit 22 mph. What I mean by used to is that we completely changed it to a Bafang BBSHD system. We even needed to cut the frame just to fit the motor in by it reaches a much higher top speed of 30 mph and it has much more acceleration. If you would like I have made a review about how it was before the mods and a review on how it was after.

The other half well wait and see. My faith is in Tora and his team. The video’s showed them focused and hard at work one guy was so exhausted he was crashed out at his desk! Bike meets hype?

here in the UK bikes are limited to 250Watts, so the bikes in the video are a dream.

@dexgray4581 3 жыл бұрын

@@Endidixknsej I’ve changed my mind as of recently on hub motors. I like the idea of a mid drive motor because it has a lot more power efficiency, and is better for hillclimbing. However, I’m used to a 150 motorized scooter CVT automatic transmission, so I definitely am more on board for the throttle and go hub motors as opposed to having to shift gears. The day that automatic mid drive motors become more prevalent, will be a good one.

I took it out 3 times and two of those times I got flats. I ride with a guy that has a RX. Those tires are where its at.. So I sold the z1 and ordered a S2. I do like the aerial rider but...looks, smaller battery, and those tires on it are not bullet proof like the ones you'll find on the super73 s2.

I've been looking for a good bike for so long but got sick of the high price so now I got myself a razor mx650 w/ a 48v 2000w motor (30mph) but I'm planning on going to a 60v-72v 3000w motor and redoing the body to be a Café Racer w/ mirrors and headlight/brakelight and turn signals.... It would fall under a electric motor vehicle but not powerful enough to be a motorcycle but it'll do 50mph and I can even get a 20"x4" wheel w/ a 72v 5000w motor if I want to go even faster. Also if I get a 72v triangle battery I can eliminate some of the width of the battery box and I could weld a bottom bracket on for pedals... But then I'd have to get rid of the foot pegs completely so it's a pedal assist but I'm OK w/ that option.

@NomadicBristolview 3 жыл бұрын

I'd like to see a 24" or 26" tire Scorpion-like bike with better leg extension for pedal assist. We aren't Allowed throttle only - just pedal assist and pedaling is where the Scorpion (as it is now) suffers. It's a good looking bike, but pedal use is poor.
