Want to see more content with this bike. With the 52V system and the controller boosting to 35V and the motor surging to ~1500w. Just got to turn on Off-road and Boost… and add the second battery and the dual battery balancer 🔥 And for the P51 fanboys… that ride is almost twice the cost. Yeah it’s steel frame and way better components, but the this thing is $2,195 right now and the P51 is still just a 48V system.
I have the same exact bike and love it. I keep mine on Off Road and Boost mode a lot.I got a rear tire flat in my first week and it took an hour and 20 mins to change and I stripped the chain tensioner bolt. The customer service was great and they sent me a better bolt in a couple days. Tire changes will get easier after the first time. Besides that and issues with the kickstand its a great bike! I’ve hit 41 MPH on flat ground and 47 + downhill.
JOHN, I have seen you in other past videos going up stairs with the Surron and not get a flat. These Rideups are just not meant to ridden so hard. Great Video as always I love all your content!
That and the Scout tires that come stock are very similar to the BDGR tires, and those are notorious for flats and sliding out. Best to get real tires and innertubes.
Great vids as always!! I just bought this bike last week and I love it!! Best ebike I've bought so far and I'm currently getting it converted to 72v right now. I think you'll absolutely love this bike.
convert it to mid drive instead, i couldnt believe its a hub when i looked it up. edit: actually given the dimensions i dont think a mid motor could fit but idk
@GodlessFiend I am just now seeing this, so sorry for the very late reply. Honestly, watch a ton of video and reviews on the ebikes that grab your attention. See what you like, what the pros and cons are and make the decision based off of what you like, want and need. It took me a month to finally decide on the Revv 1 and it was by far the best decision!!
@nasnas4396 With the 52v it came with I could not, but since the upgrade it does have enough power to wheelie, but I don't really know how to and have tried to much to do it. But a guy from a group I ride with has done them on my bike, so yes lol
That was the RADDEST video/review I’ve seen yet! That’s exactly the type of video that a lot of us wanna see before we buy one. I’ve got a DRT on order! I can hardly wait. You rode that thing to its capacity, and it was awesome to watch. Upgraded tires is an easy fix. I’m stoked to start watching your other videos - right on. Keep it up Dude!
He seriously went flying with the bike.... when he got into the park it look like he was practically gonna mow down anyone or anything he came across with exception of going up the stairs😂
This bike is not meant to take jumps given the hub motor/mag wheel combo. That motor is going to break/snap right at the hub if you keep using this bike as if it's a Talaria/Surron. You've been warned.
Dude you need to ship that back and buy a P-51. It's basically a bike like that, but with the same suspension your Surron has (literally the same fork and rear suspension parts). On a lighter, smaller bike. The whole idea behind it was make a "bike lane legal surron". Those guys are in Huntington Beach and they're super influencer friendly. Hit them up, seriously.
@@RoadRunnerENT.My thoughts as well. Im sure they simply wanted him to review it and show how good it is. But for the price i think id pay a little more and get the surron. Just my opinoin.
I might get this bike for myself for Christmas..btw get some flat out quick strike and Mr tuffy for fat tire would sure help prevent those annoying flats..
bro, pre fill your tires with green slime, and let it "set"... This should be something all riders do, Almost just like charging your battery before a long ride. That shit will save you a lot of headache... Good video, that sucks that you got a flat.
Thanks for this. I'm shopping around now. If you unlock these bikes, can you relock the bike? I think you are correct about post sale service. There are a lot of flashy ebikes out there now, but my research so far is confirming your comment about making sure you are dealing with a company that stands behind its bikes and cares about customer service. Without that, you are really left out in the cold if any problems crop up which certainly happens. This ebike market is not yet mature.
what is top speed once you unlock? how would you describe the rear suspension? i prefer suuuper cushy suspension and does changing it to off-road mode (unlocking it) improve its hill climbing ability?
Surron can probably make it up those stairs. The issue with why that bike couldn't do it is mainly because it's smaller tires. But its definitely not a negative in any way because I don't think people would use that to climb stairs.
Bro, in the future those square white plastic things on the bottom of the box. Pinch them and pull them out. The top of the box will lift off easily. Then the box isn’t damaged and can be used if it needs to go back.
brooo this was the best GTA ever :hahhahahaha loved it :D Is this is lectric xp 3.0? And I See your driving it in LA, I used to stay in shermonoaks, I wonder if you can rise this ebike all over LA with an extra battery pack :D
Awesome review but FUnny box open. the top of box lifts off when upright after you pull the 4 plastic bottom plugs on sides and cut bottom tape........bike is then upright and easy to assemble.
Yo John, I know you are street smart, but just so you know for sure, someone asking you how much or just randomly asking if you’ll sell something of yours, is in the top 10 sketchy things people ask before a robbery. Someone asked you that just keep it pushing.. small talk like that gives them time to plan and stall you. The only people you could really stop for is a quick hello for a fan and that’s all it. Everyone else is a red flag
Yours didn't come with a front fender? You still have it? if yes, how do you like it so far? What do you think about the new "DRT" model which will be shipped next month?
sorry you caught a pinch flat. thats the dowside of having tube tires over tubeless. your surron might be tubeless oh and by the way, that doesnt go 40 mph. use gps to verify because most display reads 5 miles faster
For anybody watching this video who buys this bike… don’t open the box like that. It’s like a TV box. There are four white plastic clips around the bottom of the sides. Unclip them and lift the whole top of the box off.
Hey John or anybody,I’m about to get myself an E bike sometime either this week or next week and I was wondering if you had any tips for me and what to expect. Edit: I’m not getting a surron but just an EBike(unless if surrons are considered E-bikes)
Bro I need more ebike reviews from you. No one else full sends these ebikes like like you are 😂
Dude you were beating the sh*t outta that bike!!!! Luv it 😆

bro once you unlock the off road mode, can you keep it forever and drive in public roads? such as in nyc bike lanes
@@canguvenc6099 Yes I keep mine on Off Road and Boost Mode most of the time. Its a sick bike for the money!
@@canguvenc6099 You sign a waiver saying youll behave. 😀
@@wayne_right what kind of range do you get going balls out ?
@@brianmaris3252 TBH Ive never ran the battery completely down. Maybe 25 miles?? I ride locally mostly.

@@mylifepoetic that and also pinch flats with tube tires.. tubeless are better
his surron has tubeless tire so he wont get pinch flat like what happen to hom
Those alleys are TREACHEROUS.

The walk of shame 😂 glad you didn't just fix the tire and record it on another day!

what’s gonna happen
That was epic puncture! I love it. You can make more videos like this bro, a puncture test
hell yeah man looks killer. After watching this I defiantly made the right decision. Getting mine on the 30th💪
Got mine last week and it's a blast. So comfy.
@@kunad3294how is it holding up?
How is it?
The kickstand is further back, so it's not in the way when you pedal, and put some FlatOut next time, it's a lifesaver.

Don't like the look for some reason
The fact that you think he bought this bike is hilarious

@@88Baby_Dragon nah eride pro ss over suron atm
@@focuswest2736ill check it out
I love those colors, I would totally rock that bike. I actually prefer the kickstand back on the swingarm so you don't smash it with the pedals/crank.
Another BANGER Hicks keep 'em coming!!! 🤟🔥
Man you killed me when you unboxed it that way😂 bought a revv1 800 miles ago. Ride it everyday to work. I love mine but never push it that hard!
What kind of bike is this John? Something about the power in this bike everything flows like lightning fast and the brakes are like a car. SICK
Thanks for the review. Looks like a fun ebike.
I might get this bike for myself for Christmas..btw get some flat out quick strike and Mr tuffy for fat tire would sure help prevent those annoying flats..
I could never ever ride my ebike in that cesspool in downtown LA. I'm not surprised that you got a flat. 😆
lol bro I live around there and I’m surprised he wasn’t assaulted with a weapon once he got a flat tire and began walking with it
bro, pre fill your tires with green slime, and let it "set"... This should be something all riders do, Almost just like charging your battery before a long ride. That shit will save you a lot of headache... Good video, that sucks that you got a flat.
Alaska laws are a bit tight...but this bike might be my next one...currently own a Euybike K6 Pro and loving it...I'm eyeballing the Revv1 now😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥
That's cool you ride it around in temple, Bonnie Brae to MacArthur Park. I should cruise around with my juiced scorpion to get that feeling.
Very cool bike. I'll be buying one within the month. Great vid.

Nice looking bike. It's sounds real quiet which is cool.
At 35 she screams! You can't tell in this video
Dang bro........Thats a war place u hit.......CRS, CAR, MS13, 18ST and Rockwood out there
John … you need to finish this review, you seemed to be having so much fun.
Great demonstration! Thank you.👍🏼😎
Great video, I want that bike! keep up with the awesome vids. Thaks bro 💪😁🤙

Awesome review but FUnny box open. the top of box lifts off when upright after you pull the 4 plastic bottom plugs on sides and cut bottom tape........bike is then upright and easy to assemble.
13:13 it was that jump going upstairs gave you a flat tire or the hit or a nail?
Thanks for the review, love your work!
Dude; I love your work!

bro it was a little kid lol
@@cgaff8119 doesn't mean he was alone.
which 3rd country is this place?
Did you ever get the tire fixed. Would love to see some more content of the Revv1.
Awesome video! Thanks for keeping it real. I have an Ariel Rider Grizzly & yes it's a beast but no regrets at all 🙌
13:13 is every bikers worst feeling 😂😂😂
Stair "BOMB"....bummer dude! Fun vid!
Can't get over how Australia is putting out the top tier tech and selling it or holding it till it's worth the sale ©_©
Nice transparency
I always cut the side off the boxes now. just two slices down the corners and you don't have to call a friend to help you.
Tuff brake Big John, it could have been worse, luckily you weren't parked to far away!! Peace ✌ out my friend!!
That fisheye lens is horrible!
Yours didn't come with a front fender? You still have it? if yes, how do you like it so far? What do you think about the new "DRT" model which will be shipped next month?
Can I ask what GoPro setup you use for recording your rides? It’s clear and easy to hear.
With the way you ride, I hope you get a chance to review the Ristretto 512!
That is a dope looking bike.
That;s what i call a true life ride and review!
I put flatout in all my tires. Looks like you ruptured the wall though. Id go Veemoto in the future for tire choices.
Was the secret feature forgetting to bring a pump and patch kit :D
Or a helmet apparently
The secret feature was do not ride in stairs lol
One of my bucket list places to visit, lovely weather and just the whole vibe is cool reminds me of films used to watch as a kid ❤
Knowing the brand is going to cover you if something goes wrong is essential.
This bike puts a big smile on my face. That's really all.
John. Whatever happened to this bike?? We never got a 2nd vid. Plz load one up! 🚴♀️🤙🤙
Cut the safety wire and pot it in speed mode . Best thing I ever did!
Bro love your channel amazing reviews. Do u know freego x2 can't find it on ur channel
Nice Thanks John
sorry you caught a pinch flat. thats the dowside of having tube tires over tubeless. your surron might be tubeless oh and by the way, that doesnt go 40 mph. use gps to verify because most display reads 5 miles faster
Hey you always mention you like to road bike also! What kind of bike do you ride? Make a video or short on your road bike :)
Ayyy I saw your post on IG of your road bike! 😍
What are your thoughts on the Electra Ponto go?
Hey, well at least you're in good physical shape, I dread getting flats.
If you remove the white plastic tabs on the bottom of the box you can just pull the top of the box off without having to lift the bike. FYI
How would you compare the bike to the rave GTX bullet?
Love the vids man
2:12 like how the gopro makes the tire square
No way! Paying way more for a look over the motor and battery!
BEST REVIEW EVER!
My Brother Please get the cyc x1 pro gen 4, with a 72 volt battery, I guarantee you will love it
If you move the kickstand to what you want it hits the pedals when you roll the bike backwards.
what pisses me off so much is how these companies are charging so much for these bikes. We are talking CAR prices.......for electric bikes
Wait the Revv1 is pretty affordable, unless your referring to other bikes?
Finally a real ebike review 🤙
I swear one of those alleys looks like where Ricky got shit in Boyz N Da Hood!! Lol!! Awesome video as always!!!
Okay....those streets are in need of a deep cleanse.
Freeze foo
Gimme yo bike!
Great ride but one question. Is this bike worth 2100? Wouldn't it be better to get a talaria xxx for 3k?
Are the switches reversible I hate the way there on the wrong sides
For anybody watching this video who buys this bike… don’t open the box like that.
It’s like a TV box.
There are four white plastic clips around the bottom of the sides. Unclip them and lift the whole top of the box off.
Look into getting a tannus armor tire insert.
I'm 5'4" and id love an ebike that I can ride on or off road. Any suggestions for a shorter rider?
E-Dart is what I have and works great for all terrain
How many cost. In these evokes
Great video. Now I know what I can’t do
Thanks for sharing…!
My man just stress tested the f*ck outta that bike 😂
@johnhicks How tall are you? How much do you weigh? im 6'4 looking to buy an Ebike here soon but one that works for big guys LOL
does the battery charge when you pedal?
No
Hey John or anybody,I’m about to get myself an E bike sometime either this week or next week and I was wondering if you had any tips for me and what to expect.
Edit: I’m not getting a surron but just an EBike(unless if surrons are considered E-bikes)
Get a Wired Freedom you won't regret it
How heavy is it?
