Awesome, thank you so much. It takes some Bricklink orders, but it's fun in the end to see all 8 side-by-side.

@@basom87 Thanks! And Thank you for my first comment in a year, totally random stranger who I don’t know!

Thank you so much!

I really appreciate your comment. You may not have considered it, but at this point I have thought of this event from every perspective imaginable. The car was in the extreme left lane, realized they were about to miss their turn, and suddenly cut across 2 lanes to the right to make the right turn. I happened to be concurrently occupying that space. That’s exactly why it appeared they “came out of nowhere,” since I didn’t see them in my rear-view mirror. Regarding bicycle speeds, drivers should not try to erratically turn when a bicycle is right at the threshold of that driveway, no matter how fast or slow the bicycle is going. Have you ever seen a manually-powered road bicycle going downhill? The average road bike speed on a flat road is 17-22 mph. Going downhill, it's easy to get up to 40 mph. I was pedaling on an eBike going downhill and going slower than most road bikes would go in the same spot. Drivers should give me the same consideration they would give any bicycle. This driver was not considerate. The point I was making is that some drivers aren’t. Even the best intentioned drivers make errors in judgment, especially when they don’t know where they’re going or they’re not paying attention. I did not yell at this person, I was not litigious, and I did not expect them to pay for the medical bills I endured as a result of their actions. I did not mention their name or description in this video. I think simply stating that I believe they own most of the blame is fair. The point of the video, and my advice to any bicyclist, is be especially aware of every intersection or driveway you’re approaching. Slow down at these key moments and keep your head on a swivel. Before you get to the threshold, look carefully to see if any drivers appear to be acting like boneheads. Give yourself time in case you have to suddenly stop.

Thanks!

Thanks!

No box, no instructions. Parted out just pieces using Bricklink

Once I set my mind to building it I think it went together in a day. But collecting parts and getting myself to start is another story.

@@bricktales wow it looks amazing nice job

@@bricktales can you make a tutorial on it please

Yes!

Woo hoo!

That would be so cool. I’m working on one myself though

Thank you so much! I appreciate you listening to it.

Thanks so much!

@@bricktales your welcome

Well said. It was truly a learning experience. Every intersection and every driveway are potential threats.

Yeah they were great! I’ve been trying to collect the figs on bricklink to make up for the ones I don’t have.

This was a kickstarter where one of our favorite RUclipsrs designed a deck of cards and had them printed up for the fans to purchase them.

So much fun

Thanks!

Nice!

A couple of weeks ago I think? Aww too bad yours haven’t come yet! They’re pretty awesome 😎 maybe it has to do with the timing of when you pledged 🤷‍♂️

@@bricktales possibly…also I’m in Canada! Looking forward to receiving them. Thanks for showing them!

No problem!

Nice!

Respect!

It depends on how fast you go. Probably 20 miles if you’re going full throttle.

@@bricktales i guess more battery packs ?

It has 2 batteries already…they claim 75+ miles per charge, so you have to assume that’s if you’re barely using any power. So if you’re not riding around full throttle with both motors the whole time and you’re doing a lot of pedaling, I’d bet you could probably split the difference.

I just use it to run errands so I never take it very far.

That’s funny! I recently became an Onyx RCR owner and not a grizzly owner though. Someone local now owns it so you’re still not alone. I feel like the only Onyx around here for sure. I guess if I got a Sur Ron or Rad Runner I’d be just another face in the crowd.

To be honest I’m probably not making instructions, that’s not really something I’m interested in doing. Lego is suppose to be fun and making pdf instructions frankly does not sound like fun 🤩. Thanks for the comment though! Stay tuned for more!

Yes

The batteries can be locked so that helps.

Haha, no I’m not very litigious

I agree, that’s why I wear motorcycle gloves and helmet. Going to get a motorcycle jacket too because I’m on an Onyx RCR Now. Thanks you!

Thanks! Electric bicycles need a negligible amount of energy compared to electric OR gas cars. The point is: I was able to get rid of my family’s second gas car & replace it with this. Consider the energy used to push the car down the road all the time with 1 person in it compared to this bike, which is still partially powered by human foot power. This is more akin to charging your laptop than charging a Tesla. Besides, I don’t think I was bragging too much about it, I was just listing the eBike’s pros and 1 reason for wanting it.

@@bricktales I hear you. Tone is hard to convey in text. I was mostly speaking the the crowd in the comments more so than directly to you. Good video btw

Thanks, I appreciate it

Yes, there’s an issue with the battery balancer that is really harshing my buzz

@@bricktales sorry to hear that

It is

I’m well! Thank you

Thank you very much!

@@bricktales your welcome.

Truth

Thanks! I like to call it the “minifig scale batmobiles that are actually affordable and are available right now” 😆

Fair enough, when The Batman Batmobile goes on sale, I may have to get it
