- The X has got it all as far a sleek, lightweight, and portable ebike. In the review I'll show how well it can climb, how far it can go with a 185 lb rider and an overview of all the specs.
Pick it up here with code: "MIKEHYDE" and get an additional 6 months of warranty for 2 1/2 yrs

A note from the company: 65Km/h is with a 10.5Ah battery and not a 7Ah battery by using LEVEL 1 (ECO assist on flat surface).

This is definitely my favorite e-bike. Super light, relatively fast, good battery range and unbelievably durable. I've had my Carbo S and X for 3 years and they operate like day one after replacing the battery, which starts to deplete after 3 years or so. I just wish they could make it a class 3 to go 28mph max speed. I need just slightly more speed and power and it would be absolutely perfect for me in NYC.
How do you like the S vs the X? Is the extra large battery worth while
⚡🤙🏼 *We need more light eBikes!* 🤙🏼⚡
Belt drive is also 🤩
Okay that battery design and placement is just sick. What a handsome little bike!
Excellent, intelligent review with great production quality! Thanks
Thanks! I appreciate it
Hmmm... 350 watt motor is good but with only 12 miles of range? That's terrible. Dang, the Carbo X was on my shortlist. No more. I'm glad I rewatched this. Thank you.
Thanks for this helpful review! A front suspension would be nice but then you wouldn't have a 29-pound bike, would you? That being said, a SUSPENSION post would help greatly. I'm using a Thudbuster on my current ebike and there is no way I would ride a hard tail bike without it. But my bike is well over 60 pounds with a large battery... I see that the new 500 Watt Jackrabbit has an optional suspension post but this has no pedals... It's basically a scooter with a seat. Is it possible to add a suspension post to the Carbo?
The Carbo Model S, however, has 9 gears and chain driven. Theoretically, with the same motor, shouldn't spinning the pedals on the Model S in the 9th gear be faster than the fixed gear Model X?
i have one, 2 yrs old - biggest drawback is the tiny display readout, barely larger than a postage stamp & nearly unreadable - Carbo says a larger display is due in April '24 - also the frame audibly creaks under pedal load as you can hear in the review
I agree with the readout and the cracking, it's a good idea but needs some tweaking
A note from the company: 65Km/h is with a 10.5Ah battery and not a 7Ah battery by using LEVEL 1 (ECO assist on flat surface).
What's that creaking noise coming from? For a bike that cost 4 grand (CAD), that creaking noise would annoy the heck out of me!
It's from where the handlebars fold
@@ElectricRevolution A common issue with folding bikes.
I wonder how the upcoming ADO Air 20 Carbon will compare to the Carbo Model X? On paper, they seem very similar.
We shall see
Thoughts on the model S with a proper chain and shifter? Also, is the 350w motor worth it in your opinion? Thanks!
Haven't tried the shifter so can't say although would be nice to have some gears for hilly terrain - I'd say if you life in a flat area, get the belt, if not the geared one and as far as the motor, yeah I think the 350 is ok, they're goal is trying to make this light so adding a 500 doesn't make sense, the 350 almost feels like a 500 because it doesn't have a ton a weight to haul around. It all depends on what you're looking for.
@@ElectricRevolution I haven't found any reviews of the model s. Any plans to test one? We have some pretty serious hills where I live
Do you know the size when it is folded up? I need measurements for storing in a small rv
Not off the top of my head but I have a link over to the company in the description that should give you that info
If you're 5'11", for a normally-proportioned rider, how short could they be and still fit the bike? There is no info on that at the Carbo website. With the seatpost in the lowest rideable position, it didn't look like you were squished.
The saddle lowers a lot, so much where it can fit a rider 5'2 or 3 if not smaller. I felt big on it
Looks like the ultimate bike, but why on earth did they put in a silly THUMB drive? This is what keeps me from a purchase.
I agree
What app are you using on your iPhone that shows speed in the video?
It's called speedometer
is there an option to make it a normal bike if you want to bring it on plane?
I don't think so, you can't remove the battery
Can you note bike specs? Is it 6.7 or 10Ah battery? 250 or 350W motor?
I have a link in the description that will take you to their site, you can find all the specs there. I like to show you what you can't find online
Scott Addict is 24-25 lbs.
Only good if you’re short
10 mile range is a no, especially spending $3000
What you're paying for is the lightweight and how portable it is, not so much range, this is more of a crowded city type of bike
@@ElectricRevolution you think this is the best bike for putting in a small airplane? size and weight are biggies
The standard bike usually sells for about 2500, it's 3k with the upgraded battery and motor. They do occasionally have sales, probably worth waiting for.
@@ElectricRevolutionI've been looking for data on the peak power of the motor at 250w versus 350 watts. Personally interested in the model s but assuming they're the same. Do you know what the peak power is?
Great video. At $2800, this is literally a richer man's commuting bike because you can get a 38 pound folding ebike with virtually the same specs under $350. I'm sure the components are better on this bike, but for $350, I'd rather just go with the cheaper, than wait for about 3 years when newer technology comes out.
Do you have an example of a bike with similar specs at that price?
