Ordered mine last week with your code (worked)! Thanks for all the review videos dude, helped me pick this one out among the plethora of ebike options out there.
We are listening to customer feedback and making the necessary changes. We will be resolving the display issue and modifying the bike with shorter crank arms to make the bike more comfortable to pedal.
Great power to weight ratio from GhostCat! I knew it could be done for 80lbs or less! So nice its 52 volt too, gotta leave these 48 volt ebikes in the past. 52 volt is more efficient than 48 volt and can probably use less wattage motors for same or better output? The race for more watts motors is neverending, but higher volts gets you MORE speed and power for length of battery and possibly less weight! 💪😎
Hey Kevin I've been waiting for tail happy Matt's review. It was his review of the F1 that got me interested in the bike. The suspension really is like a Cadillac.
Yea boi, birdman hand rub. I hate that I cannot buy 1 out of every 5 bikes he reviews. There so cool. Got an Aventure but I wouldn’t mind one or two more. Stupid poverty always ruing things 😂.😊
I've got the Rockbros phone carrier too, but I use it to carry the 12v battery pack I use to power a motorcycle headlight I installed. Helluva lot easier than trying to wire it into the 48v system. Glad to see you're still using the brain bucket.
Knobby tires on the road can be a good thing. When I'm approaching pedestrians from behind I don't have to use the bell anymore. The unique noise of Nobby tires on the road draws the attention of pedestrians from quite a distance
That might be the coolest looking E-bike! Awesome performance! Gotta save my $ and maybe this is the one? I guess we'll see because I frequently think that when I watch your reviews!
I used to build tires for GoodYear Co. , a Breaker, in this case, is a Strip of Nylon Fabric that Runs just Under the Tread, adds Strength to the Tire where the Rubber meets the Road.
Yes great power to weight ratio from GhostCat! I knew it could be done for 80lbs or less! So nice its 52 volt too, much more efficient than 48 volt and can probably use less wattage motors for more output? 💪😎
Once again, thank you for the reviews. Still waiting on the day we see a tall boy moped style ebike I feel like the addmotor m70 could’ve been that if it just had rear suspension and a stronger power train.
The bike is great but wear you live is beautiful 🤩 I'm so jealous what a wonderful place in the sunshine state I'm back here in grey UK looking at your beaches an blue sky's you have the best job my friend Bill
Can you please review the X26? I have been trying to decide between the X26, Revv1 or either the Wired Freedom/ecells Five Star. Your reviews have been the only useful reviews I have watched. I bought my Core-5 after watching your review.
Thank you for the review man. I was waiting for it for ages 😂. I think this bike is top noch for the price, also, Ghostcat Costumer Service is awesome 💯
Really nice with great brakes, light but 40mph with the knobby "do nothing well" tires everyone uses (I don't know why)? I'd change tires day 1. Scary corners on a road with no contact patch. 20mph different story. Love suspension.
we're getting some really nice bikes this year, would love to see more like this on the UK market but we have such strict laws it probably wouldn't be viable
There's so many reviews to watch. Can you recommend a type of bike that is affordable yet can go sort of off road? Think trails and back roads no motocross. 60 y/o male just looking to get out more but not in town.
Will you be reviewing BeeCool Bee Ranger that’s supposed to come out soon? I’m interested in it, and I really want to see if it’s worth the money? If BeeCool doesn’t send it to you, can you ask BeeCool to send one to you for a review?
Still awaiting a "chopper" style bike (a la Raleigh Chopper or Schwinn Crate) with dynamic suspension like this, range and speed like this. The small wheel up front (like Raleigh or Schwinn). Slightly recumbent (like Raleigh or Schwinn). Battery mounted front to offset the tendency for wheelies (as the Raleigh and Schwinn had issues with). Perhaps some power management to modulate the tendency to wheelie. Tall "sissy" bar with backrest (a la Raleigh Chopper "Tall"). I know, will never happen.
to anyone looking to buy this bike there is a 1 to 1 clone called the "Black Raven" thats 1k cheaper. it uses the same frame , motor, and the battery even has that fake carbon fiber, its just unbranded. im 99% sure the only difference is the rear suspension. so yeah, its 1k cheaper , and its in stock and not on backorder. also TrailHappy theres literally zero reviews on the black raven , you should hop on that. i think the company that "makes" the bike is bad bird bikes.
The only similarity is the frame. Bad Bird bikes is just a rebranded Akez Jaguar 48v/18ah, 28amp controller no name brand low torque motor with a shit suspension and 160mm 2 piston brakes. The GhostCat is a 52v/20ah, 40amp controller, XOFO high torque 1500W motor, DNM rear suspension with 203mm 4 piston brakes. These bikes are nothing similar unless you are clueless about e-bikes like you are lol
@@Brianelectrify from what I read they use the same 750 watt(1500peak) motor , and the raven has either a 30 or 35 amp controller. It f I’m wrong then that’s my bad but for being 1k cheaper and it’s goes the same 35-40mph (depending on rider weight) i personally would go for the cheaper version plus with that 1k savings you could pick up a second battery and still pay less than getting a ghostcat while having more range than both stock bikes.
@@justbrowsing10 also I’m not affiliated with them(bad bird bikes) I just saw an ad for them on instagram and noticed they look exactly the same for less so I thought I’d share that information lol.
When it comes to warranty, power, speed, and comfort which one is your favorite? The GhostCat looks to be the most comfortable and has the best breaking system and I like that. I do not like the motorcycle look. The smaller tires, I can get used to. I want a lot for a little, lol. What should I be looking for in an EBike?
any idea the fastest bike for around this price? could be flexible up to 3k cad, would much prefer a bike that looks like this or rlly any surron or talaria
can you change the shifter on the bike? i have another one that would look and feel more comfortable and i wanted to know if they supported that, i just want to change the shifting levers and not the derailer itself. the one i want to switch it to is also shimano if that helps
What do u folks think? Does it look more sporty with the rear fenders being so short? Or does it look stupid. Cuz I'm thinking about cutting my fenders short like that.
@@rickymahoney6664 Cool. I never ride in wet conditions so it serves no purpose other than looks. Maybe I should cut them and see how it looks. Got a motor goat v3 coming hopefully soon btw.
On full throttle how many miles can it reach before needing a charge because i charge my current bike at work and at home im looking to commute at least 15 miles
I think I prefer this one. A lot lighter and sounds like it’s more torque all the way thru which I like. ~35mph top speed is fine for me … and not taking forever to get there is what really counts.
@@JPatel1995 I’m enjoying the slow ride now. I went with a juiced RRacer and wish I bought a wired freedom. Also Ecell 5star is looking great. Yes 30mph is fast enough for a bike
rite now I hv the big nui bgx. it's fun but it's like riding a chopper but it goes to 40mph.. soo that's cool u shld check it out im sure they wld send u a bike.but I really think u wld like it.
That M5 display is the reason why I don't care for color displays; you can clearly see it in any lighting condition, even on camera with sunglasses. Every color display is barely visible in your videos. Sure color is nice, but it's pointless if it's so dim you can't see it.
I like the m5s. I have another bike with a large color display, looks cool, but doesn’t give nearly the same info as the m5s. The m5s are really easy to see and navigate
I want to see more e-bikes that look like bikes. Stealth, so cops don't bother you. These moped looking bikes are just asking to be hassled by the cops virtually anywhere but LA.
Are e-bikes like these good for exercise? I see that it has pedals but can you actually pedal these if you want to and work up a sweat? When I ride my suspension bike I’m upright on my pedals 90% of the time. I hardly ever sit down.
E-bikes like this are not meant for pedaling (seat is far to close to the pedals) for proper pedaling will need an e-bike with an adjustable seat post . To pedal properly you need nearly full leg extension .
Samsung, they did not skimp out, in another video I saw one guy opened it up to check. And found out it is based off another Chinese made frame but just about everything was upgraded to US standards. I want one sooo badly

Great to see you listening and watching customer feedback! I wish to eventually be able to afford one of these. Absolutely gorgeous bike!

We will have shorter crank arms in the next batch of bikes in May.
@GHOSTCATBIKES try another display. Non M5
we posted our reviews the same day haha. awesome ebike
@MrCentralDriver Gotta wach your review too. You always post excellent ebike reviews, and youre my heigth! 😎👍
yeah, we get reviews from the actual best 2 ebike channels for legit consumers on the same day, absolutely fantastic channels for this community.

8:18 smile on yo face lol. Great braking and suspension!!!
I bought one of these, the braking is insanely insanely strong.
Probably my next ebike. Thanks for your excellent reviews.
You review some sweet bikes, and they're way more affordable than buying half the bike in my country. Love it.
Just purchased mine can't wait to see the range I can get since I'm about 50lh litter yourself awesome review as always
please share with us the range of this thing!
How’s it with your weight? I’m 130lbs and wondering if I can hit 40mph with it!

@@SpiralBear777 i was like 20 days from Ghostcat store to Panama. That was quite fast to be honest.
Wicked bike! But this or the Goats?? The Goats are the standard at the price point...Call it brother!

@@ReVolt_e-Vlogs yeah? And for how much????
Nice meeting you today at the GhostCat booth at the Electrify Expo in Long Beach, Matthew! This is Simon (aka Weekend Pedals). GhostCat F2.2
Nice meeting you!
@TailHappyTV how do I goto these events I'm soo jealous...I guess I hv to hv 30k subs....
would you buy a billy goat v3 or a ghostcat f3 or f3x ? i need a bike for fun and off road on the weekends as well as commuting! im so confused lol!
The front assembly looks rather flimsy though re travel and the fixtures and fender seems close to the wheel.. ?
Oh man looks awesome. I want one.
Really nice with great brakes, light but 40mph with the knobby "do nothing well" tires everyone uses (I don't know why)? I'd change tires day 1. Scary corners on a road with no contact patch. 20mph different story. Love suspension.
bro racing the himmy lmfao i still want it tho lol hmmy mods gotta be beast
How would you compare this to the Billy Goat? I can't decide which to get
we're getting some really nice bikes this year, would love to see more like this on the UK market but we have such strict laws it probably wouldn't be viable
We deliver to the UK.

Check out the Motor Goat V3
Similar styling to this one but with a top speed of 45 mph.
what passenger pegs or pegs did you use on the back? Or did they come with the bike?
How many miles can it get? And is it safe to ride in the rain and through mud puddles? I also want to know if i could ad another battery to it
What is the frame metal and gauge of the frame tubing.
can you change the shifter on the bike? i have another one that would look and feel more comfortable and i wanted to know if they supported that, i just want to change the shifting levers and not the derailer itself. the one i want to switch it to is also shimano if that helps
That's just a regular bicycle part and easy to change but if your new shifter mounts in a different way it may need to move the brake lever too.

Shame it doesn't have a torque sensor, I can't get past the delay you get from a cadence

Mag wheels are actually a lot less durable, if you ever had a sidewalk fail on you, it's catastrophic, its best to avoid them altogether.
