Well said mate. Don't let the commenters grind you down. You've come a really long way with the ebikes since we first met! Proud of you mate, thanks for all you're help in business and as a mate.🙏🏻👊🏼
Appreciate it mate, still can't believe we've only been mates since lock down feels like we've known each other for life 😄 definetely gonna overhaul the product line together this year proper excited to test the new products lined up and help make kirbebike and dude stuff even better 🤘 Thanks for all your knowledge mate
Well said mate. I build campervans and get the same thing. People don't appreciate the work and research and experience you put into these things. Been dabbling with ebikes too and you're dead right u have no idea what you're getting half the time. Keep up the good work👍
Steve really appreciate your content and some of your creative builds!!! Looking forward to your upcoming projects. I’m currently building my 29er Rockhopper with a BBS02 mid drive kit, but my next build will be with one of your kits. Thanks for the content🙏
I was harassed, threatened given all sorts of [some quite shocking] abuse the other day on Reddit. Why? A light-hearted review of a £4 piece of sushi. You're totally right, these people must be so miserable and bitter having to attack folks online to feel they're heard, validated etc. I think often they're unemployed, have been on benefits for a long time and are bored, depressed & feeling worthless (their post history often gives this away). I'm pretty thick skinned so it bounced off and I just disengaged, but it was an alarmingly unhinged rant, a lot of projection in there I guess, drawing all sorts of concussions about my political beliefs, my 'exploitation of working people' , and how I'm a source for misery and suffering in the world. Just thankful that 99% of these keyboard warriors are complete cowards so they won't act out their unfocused rage in society, face to face.
Trolling has a been a thing since public forums became a thing on the internet. And those trolling succeed when they get a reaction... An angry or upset reaction more specifically. I know it's easier said than done, But the trick is to see it for what it is and don't react at all... Or just react in a smart way to counter, But drop the mic straight after. A good troll will get right under your skin and continue to, Could be any manner of horrible things that yes in real life you would probably kill that person lol, But it's all an act in a public domain while keeping totally anonymous and untouchable.. Well, As long as they don't behave in way where it could turn criminal and be under investigating by authorities that is. It is sad though that people have actually committed suicide over this shit, It's amazing how powerful words can be even on a computer screen from randoms. I've dealt with trolls like we all have in all my years online, But I just don't give a damn! And that's that.
Nothing says your not allowed to dislike the nature of trolling just remain true to your view I personally type 'huh' in response to haters I find that it deflates the interest pretty quick keep typing huh
Hi Steve, I’ve just finished watching this video and I wanted to let you know that your efforts are really appreciated by the people who do properly understand really life costs and values, not to mention your own real life experiences (which you tend to freely throw into your builds for next to nothing). Steve as you know the haters will always throw out hateful comments or emojis, basically they do this, I believe because they’re scared to actually have a proper go at anything themselves, truly believing that they would fail miserably if they ever did have a crack at something which is new to them. Anyway please keep doing more of what you’ve been doing as it’s enjoyed and appreciated by many people who do actually know the difference between a spanner and a waist of time hurtful comment or emoji 😊
True mate most people dont see any creative field as real work. Doesn't matter if you're an artist, musician, photographer or whatever. Ps you got some awesome skills with your music nice vibe mate keep it up!
Love your channel !! I live across the pond in the states, Minnesota. I’d been looking for a person doing what you do for a while on RUclips. How you represent yourself and your values rocks. Says a lot about a person. Looking forward to the conclusions to your drag race bike. That thing is going to be sick !! 😮. God bless, keep up the good work, and oh btw I LOVE the jacket 🇺🇸.
I got an Andy Kirby kit over two years ago and used it nearly everyday doing deliveries and never had any issues. The battery is spot on and still lasts me 6-7 hours on low power. I would recommend his kit and would never buy from unknown source. I'll be defo buying another battery from Andy.
It’s also the value of your skills and time to assemble the bike and source the right parts. People who know will pay the asking price people that don’t will try it or try to knock your confidence to lower your price, stick to what you think it’s worth not what others are willing to pay, I know only to well as I’ve built thousands of e-bikes and dirt bikes it comes with the business. Keep doing your thing mate great content by the way 👍🏻
Steve I’m from Australia, everything you say is 100% true I respect what your doing and your being way beyond transparent compared to anyone else doing the same thing keep going fuck the haters they always will hate your a good man appreciate ya videos and recommend my mates to watch them with anything to do with e bikes 100% Your a top bloke ✊🏾✊🏾 word Much love 👍
The only thing I know about e-bikes is I want one, and I want to go faster than any public servant with a Certificate in Health and Safety. You have 100% of my trust and confidence. Unfortunately I don't live in the UK, otherwise.... yep. Definitely.
Well said Steve. I totally agree with you and have been trying to get the same point across for years! When people ask me how much I paid for my bike, I tell them and then state that it's really down to what your budget is and if you're willing to pay for quality. My Kirbebike kit, bike, cost of someone to put it together, upgrades and accessories has probably set me back about £2200 with more spent on upgrades which are on the way and I don't regret a thing!
Just found this video. Keep up the good work. I’ve managed to get a lovely second MTB from a lad at work and I can’t wait to put the Andy Kirby 2000w kit on it.
Just by watching your channel you can tell tell you put the work into your builds mate. Your not banging them together with rusty nails and an old bike box spanner your hearts are in ya builds mate
Yea dude. You have the best e-bike channel on RUclips. I wish you were in the US, I’d buy one of your bikes in a heartbeat. Can’t wait for your next video.
Steve, you are a top lad Don’t listen to these haters with bad energy. keep doing your thing, I can say getting into these eBikes I have learned a lot from you and you’re the only one I watch about eBikes, so don’t stop mate. And if I had the chance I’d buy one of your bikes 100% coz I know they’ll be top quality made < 3 & thanks for your video uploads
I’ve sold a lot of stuff and by far Ebike and scooter people are some of the worst to try and sell shit to. It’s a rough business, bike people are kind of fussy already about their equipment and want the best of everything. Tell them they can have a better bike for less and many just won’t believe it. The masses rather buy an overweight Ebike online so they can feel safe rather than buy a hand crafted Ebike. Good luck bro love the content.
Well said, in essence you pay a small mark up and get quick delivery, guaranteed quality and the support and back up you expect from a vendor. If you want to save 25% and maybe get the same product or maybe get worse, take the risk. Essentially Andy has sourced reliable products and holds local stock. Anyone who has been bitterly disappointed with what turns up after 28day wait knows the better choice (and let's not even start about customs charges getting added and wiping out your savings)
Hi mate, I live in California, today a lot of things we purchased Today come from different countries around the world. It’s called trade. Some Things from China are good and some are bad. We’re blessed to have an option to shop online. From other countries. I just started watching a few of your videos. I like your stuff. keep doing what you’re doing. you’re not gonna please everyone. You’re making great quality videos. The ones who are complaining don’t have any idea how much time it takes to make or edit a video. Unfortunately the world is full of haters. Here in the states we have Disney World. it’s a place to make people happy. You always gonna find those who will walk away from there unhappy and always be complaining about something. Stay positive mate, keep up your good work!!
It's as always, people buy good and bad stuff. Some buy always good, some always bad, some first bad then good. People find good and bad sellers. Some people buy e-bikes with weak performances for 8000 and up. For example an e-bike for 600 can't be good. Calculate at least 200 to 300 to build it, and good battery cells have their price too. Your channel and content are great! You are nice, friendly, honest and authentic. People from around the globe are watching you. Some of them would buy e-bikes from you if shipping wouldn't be a problem.
dude, you're a wonderful MAN, F haters, we don't care about them, they're sitting in mommy's basement, pimply hateful and out of control, but we're living life riding bikes and have a laugh.
I can tell you as someone who worked in retail for 20 years some people are only happy if they are bringing others down. I hope nothing I have ever said was ever taken offensive I surely never meant it negative. You make some awesome bikes.
I loved your 250w builds so much I built one, got a £1300 Boardman bike ( paid £230 off Facebook buy & sell, very light, and it is amazing, 48v battery UPP, 60v 30a brainpower controller with LCD, and wow flys uphill and 30 mph+ on flats, amazing suspension front and rear, Hydraulic disk brakes. it is so lightweight with a battery in a special backpack, £800 in total but i could not buy an Ebike this good ( All thanks to your videos) so thankyou and keep up the good work 🚲👌
I would say 90% of comments on sale posts on face book are from people that actually have no intention of buying but rather leaving comments and opinions smh. It's like walking into a restaurant asking for the menu, sitting down only to spend the rest of your time commenting on what you think about the food on the menu.
I love all ur vids they have taught me so much at the age of 17 , I have a huge workshop where i work on all my rc trucks but starting to love bikes more. I'm thinking of starting of selling and converting ebikes , I hate it when people try talking absolute sh•t for no reason when I'm only 17 trying to make some cash 😂 people don't realise how much time we put into these and that we need to make ends meet to be able to do what we love , Thank you so much for all the vids ❤️
I need to repair a cable going to the on and off switch. a plug in cable going to the control switch the pins get bent and it has long rubber extending over it and can't see if they are lined up so I'm going to remove the rubber on it and replace it with heat shrink tubing to keep the water out. It's a HJM Bike. It's a three will Trike.
Converted an old 2004 GT chunky aluminium frame. Spent longer searching and researching parts then building. Wheels, brakes, battery, tyres, all adds up. But you get what you pay for. Mine totalled over £1200!
MY BrowSki !!!!! Well said!!! Wish you Lived closer to Me,, i would sign my Paycheck over to ya Every Week for the Amazing Products you and Andy put out there!! Well Built, Tough Bikes!!! Period!! I Love Andy's Kits Too!! Awesome Job to Both of You guys!! Crack ON!!!
Keep up the good work, I'm retired and built my own e bike from a scrapyard bike l am pretty handy but it is a lot of work, l enjoyed doing it and l am still altering things but there is no way l could make money from it. So l admire what you do .
Andy Kirby does not sell 2000watt kits, they are 1500watts which max out at 2000watts. I know because I've spoken to Jason many times who Kirby gets his kits off of. Now solos bike sells 1500watts and 2000watts and they in the UK no waiting for it to come from China and the controller's are a lot better than Kirby's.. Just saying though and stating the facts so don't get the hump or block me 👍
Built a ebike out of a 1990s Peugeot mountain bike. Taped wires everywhere! Looks untidy. But hits 40mph+. Brakes can't cope with weight or power tho. Ur bikes are pro hopefully I'll build em like that one day
Everyone's an expert on the internet, though I have sourced my parts myself (yet to build) I have learnt a lot watching the likes of yours and Andy's vids. He is running a business so it is what it is sure I've saved some money and I'm one of those that will sit for hours before pulling the trigger, actually been planning to build one for a few years and just took delivery of the battery and kit the other day, still a couple bits to buy. The vids you make are entertaining.
I watched you do an e bike. That gave me to do mine. What a great vid. I looked into first front hub mid and rear. Just keep the good work up. Maybe they should go and grow vegetables. But I guess it's hard work. They can't handle handles only buttons.
Have you ever heard of a company called electrified? They are selling a bbshd controller that’s 52 volt 2000 watts and 35 amps . I’m just wondering if it’s any good
I built a front wheel drive 36 volt 250- 500 watt on a £10 emelle mountain bike large frame a couple of years ago to just go shopping on. Fitted rack & panniers and does the job. Not fast but decent range & total cost was £320 including battery. I ride it a couple of times a week & does the job. But great add. 🤘
I am happy with my Saskara GT 2013 with a 750 bbs02. I am an older man, and this bike brings me every where. Have a large battery, i can ride the whole day. My battery have Samsung cells and do a good job. I bought my kit from Germany. I use the bike in the Norwegian Winther with spikes on my tires. I like your bikes and they have a nice price. I have build some e-bikes now, and this one is the best.
You will always get numptys mate no matter what.the raleigh bomber looks great next should be the raleigh burner mrk1.your channel helped me with my viribus ebike conversion kit(have you reviewed the Viribus 1000w kit)
Fair play matey it cost me to build a 27.5" apollo 1500w ebike without decent brakes etc and that was £1000. so your bikes are a fair price. I've cheaper other branded bikes sell for way more. keep the content coming loving the motorbike stuff.
Great video. Totally true if people think they can get something cheaper go ahead, buy it and take the risks. Don't waste time commenting on what you are offering for sale. Everything you buy from online or at a shop they are making a profit on the item otherwise what's the point.
Your vids are great mate, and everyone who sees a negative keyboard warrior comment pop up in your feeds ignores that sht anyway. Good luck on future projects
Building an e bike with parts from you guys is the best chance saving up now for parts... when it's built, I'll be able to get about on it without getting out of breath... just like when I was a kid, lol.. anyway, good job mate keep it up. I love the content that you and kirby put out.. well done!! The others are just haters..
I've built 2 E Bikes using external bolt on Motors !!!! It involved a lot of welding, cutting metal and using a ten ton press !!! Also I used a couple of old Mountain Bikes which I had to rebuild !!! I would not recommend building an E Bike. I have used loads of electrical equipment to wire them up !!!! I have panniers and a basket on the front !!!! All I wanted was something that I can use for shopping !!!! I bought everything from Amazon !!!! Also I know if I have a Fat Tyre Flashy E Bike it will get stolen straight away !!!! I don't care about speed as I have 3 Motorbikes !!!! You're right about not much money in building E Bike kits !!!! Where I live I very rarely see any E Bikes at all !!!! As for People's opinions I agree with Albert Einstein !!! He said, There are 2 things in this World that are Infinite. The Universe and People's Stupidity, and I'm not too Sure about the Universe !!!!
i have build a cheap but good ebike for a friend, hub motor 1kw/48 15ah batt. basically just the elec. components he has to pay for, the bike itself was old but okay, for him it was a blast riding it, best price/power ratio. but it was stolen in front of my house. it was looking a bitt wacky so "everyone" was interesting in trying it out i guess^^
So how much would a specialized with the 2000 watt kit fitted cost from you? I'm thinking of buying an electric bike and I think a lot of the bikes on the market are a bit of a rip off because they are so restricted.
Well said mate. Don't let the commenters grind you down. You've come a really long way with the ebikes since we first met! Proud of you mate, thanks for all you're help in business and as a mate.🙏🏻👊🏼
Appreciate it mate, still can't believe we've only been mates since lock down feels like we've known each other for life 😄 definetely gonna overhaul the product line together this year proper excited to test the new products lined up and help make kirbebike and dude stuff even better 🤘 Thanks for all your knowledge mate
@Dude Stuff scammers on site again Steve just got I have won something
Thanks john
Totally agree Andy
Your tutorials are great, man.. keep em coming
I totally support you. You are very well appreciated mate.
Appreciate that thank you 🙏
Well done mate what can I say you said it all good on you keep up the
good work
Unfortunately the vast majority of the good people often don't comment. I always see your deals and wish I was in the UK. Keep up the good work!
Just purchased a wheel can't wait for it to come keep up the hard work
Well said mate. I build campervans and get the same thing. People don't appreciate the work and research and experience you put into these things. Been dabbling with ebikes too and you're dead right u have no idea what you're getting half the time. Keep up the good work👍
Steve really appreciate your content and some of your creative builds!!! Looking forward to your upcoming projects. I’m currently building my 29er Rockhopper with a BBS02 mid drive kit, but my next build will be with one of your kits. Thanks for the content🙏
I was harassed, threatened given all sorts of [some quite shocking] abuse the other day on Reddit. Why? A light-hearted review of a £4 piece of sushi.
You're totally right, these people must be so miserable and bitter having to attack folks online to feel they're heard, validated etc. I think often they're unemployed, have been on benefits for a long time and are bored, depressed & feeling worthless (their post history often gives this away). I'm pretty thick skinned so it bounced off and I just disengaged, but it was an alarmingly unhinged rant, a lot of projection in there I guess, drawing all sorts of concussions about my political beliefs, my 'exploitation of working people' , and how I'm a source for misery and suffering in the world.
Just thankful that 99% of these keyboard warriors are complete cowards so they won't act out their unfocused rage in society, face to face.
Your first mistake was going on Reddit, second mistake was to get upset by letters

It is really sad and frustrating, and frankly means many of us do less work (creatives) because the haters and sheep have taken over the world.

Dude, your doing a brilliant job with the bikes, and the channels great. Fair play to ya bro👍

Love your channel mate keep up the great bikes and content. Haters gonna hate try and let the worthless throwaway comments wash over you. 🙌

Ever thought of repairing or building batteries? I've made so many now. Repairs are usually quite easy too.

Andy Kirby does not sell 2000watt kits, they are 1500watts which max out at 2000watts. I know because I've spoken to Jason many times who Kirby gets his kits off of. Now solos bike sells 1500watts and 2000watts and they in the UK no waiting for it to come from China and the controller's are a lot better than Kirby's.. Just saying though and stating the facts so don't get the hump or block me 👍
Best thing to do is just laugh it off I'm of the opinion that I don't care what think live life and carry on what your doing great video mate 👍
Dude I love it! People are pissy these days.
I have learnt a lot about Ebikes from you and Andy, many thanks
Built a ebike out of a 1990s Peugeot mountain bike. Taped wires everywhere! Looks untidy. But hits 40mph+. Brakes can't cope with weight or power tho. Ur bikes are pro hopefully I'll build em like that one day
Good Rant. Needed to be said. 👍🏻
Respect to ya ...haters will be haters , great videos always honest love your work .
Just discovered your channel. Absolutely fantastic fair play to you. I am looking to convert my mountain bike what's the best kit.
Great video, is it easy to change the cassette to single speed? Thanks
Everyone's an expert on the internet, though I have sourced my parts myself (yet to build) I have learnt a lot watching the likes of yours and Andy's vids. He is running a business so it is what it is sure I've saved some money and I'm one of those that will sit for hours before pulling the trigger, actually been planning to build one for a few years and just took delivery of the battery and kit the other day, still a couple bits to buy. The vids you make are entertaining.
Bro I got my e bike kit from Andy in 2020 I have done 9000 km and still going strong 👍
@@philg2361 that's wicked 👌
I watched you do an e bike. That gave me to do mine. What a great vid. I looked into first front hub mid and rear. Just keep the good work up. Maybe they should go and grow vegetables. But I guess it's hard work. They can't handle handles only buttons.
Have you ever heard of a company called electrified? They are selling a bbshd controller that’s 52 volt 2000 watts and 35 amps . I’m just wondering if it’s any good
I built a front wheel drive 36 volt 250- 500 watt on a £10 emelle mountain bike large frame a couple of years ago to just go shopping on. Fitted rack & panniers and does the job. Not fast but decent range & total cost was £320 including battery. I ride it a couple of times a week & does the job. But great add. 🤘
My E-bike conversion kit made bye Voilamart 48v 1500w hobmotor had no prodlem with it
You keep pushing and doing you. Your content is great 😁👍 and forget the haters as they are just making noise.
Thank you 🙌
I am happy with my Saskara GT 2013 with a 750 bbs02. I am an older man, and this bike brings me every where. Have a large battery, i can ride the whole day. My battery have Samsung cells and do a good job. I bought my kit from Germany. I use the bike in the Norwegian Winther with spikes on my tires. I like your bikes and they have a nice price. I have build some e-bikes now, and this one is the best.
You will always get numptys mate no matter what.the raleigh bomber looks great next should be the raleigh burner mrk1.your channel helped me with my viribus ebike conversion kit(have you reviewed the Viribus 1000w kit)
Well said keep up the great work 👍
Fair play matey it cost me to build a 27.5" apollo 1500w ebike without decent brakes etc and that was £1000.
so your bikes are a fair price. I've cheaper other branded bikes sell for way more.
keep the content coming loving the motorbike stuff.
Excellent video!🔥🔥 I watch your channel all the time. You build some Wicked Good E-Bikes. Keep up the Amazing work Brother. Peace & Blessings!
Great video. Totally true if people think they can get something cheaper go ahead, buy it and take the risks. Don't waste time commenting on what you are offering for sale. Everything you buy from online or at a shop they are making a profit on the item otherwise what's the point.
Well said . Some people are just jealous 👍
Your vids are great mate, and everyone who sees a negative keyboard warrior comment pop up in your feeds ignores that sht anyway. Good luck on future projects
Let's be real tho u ain't paying 900 for a kit off Kirby u wouldn't of put it up for 1100 why would u take a loss 🤔
Building an e bike with parts from you guys is the best chance saving up now for parts... when it's built, I'll be able to get about on it without getting out of breath... just like when I was a kid, lol.. anyway, good job mate keep it up. I love the content that you and kirby put out.. well done!! The others are just haters..
I want the 2000w conversion. What's the best battery. And can I get the full twist throttle
Keep smiling nice work.
I've built 2 E Bikes using external bolt on Motors !!!! It involved a lot of welding, cutting metal and using a ten ton press !!! Also I used a couple of old Mountain Bikes which I had to rebuild !!! I would not recommend building an E Bike. I have used loads of electrical equipment to wire them up !!!! I have panniers and a basket on the front !!!! All I wanted was something that I can use for shopping !!!! I bought everything from Amazon !!!! Also I know if I have a Fat Tyre Flashy E Bike it will get stolen straight away !!!! I don't care about speed as I have 3 Motorbikes !!!! You're right about not much money in building E Bike kits !!!! Where I live I very rarely see any E Bikes at all !!!! As for People's opinions I agree with Albert Einstein !!! He said, There are 2 things in this World that are Infinite. The Universe and People's Stupidity, and I'm not too Sure about the Universe !!!!
I've got a ouxi v8 I want to add a battery to , would you take it on , thanks either way ,all the best , RJ !
i have build a cheap but good ebike for a friend, hub motor 1kw/48 15ah batt. basically just the elec. components he has to pay for, the bike itself was old but okay, for him it was a blast riding it, best price/power ratio. but it was stolen in front of my house. it was looking a bitt wacky so "everyone" was interesting in trying it out i guess^^
Great info! Question, Whats a good high amp controller with pedal assist 35 amp at least?
So how much would a specialized with the 2000 watt kit fitted cost from you? I'm thinking of buying an electric bike and I think a lot of the bikes on the market are a bit of a rip off because they are so restricted.
"I'm 4 feet 11.......& a half & demand everyone listens to me!!!"
Everyone's already said it ... but well said!
Do you ever come to Northern Ontario before?
