Hey Tyler! Would you leave a review of your Grizzly on PeopleRevieweBikes.com? We’re creating an independent platform for riders to share their thoughts, away from censorship. We’d love to have your review on the site!
I just got my Grizzly last Friday. And Loving it 😋. Agree on the cup holder issue. But my main gripe is the suspension. As I only weight about 160. The rear especially spring's are just to Stiff 😖. And unfortunately you can't adjust them to soften up the ride. But you can Stiffen them more with air and the preload adjustment. I'm not holding my breath but Ariel needs to offer lighter springs for the rear. Because you can use the preload adjustment to stiffen them up. I've taken mine offroad and even jumping of of a few crubs. And the rear shocks only compressed a little over an eighth of an inch. Using the sharpie test.Also I've been looking for another Charger so I can charge both at the same time. Found it.But unfortunately not with the correct plug to battery. As it looks like Ariel has their own proprietary plug.🙄🤨😒. At one hundred thirty eight Dollars. Gee I wonder what they'll charge once they start selling extra chargers. I haven't bothered emailing them yet. As it will probably be a while before they offer a second charger. Let alone softer rear springs if at all.😥. But I still Love the bike.its just rough on my 63 year old Body ouch.😖
Sounds like you're having fun Wane! Pumped for you and your ride. Have you tried fully de-pressurizing the rear shocks and using a shock pump to adjust them? We'll work on a video with the details. I suppose being lighter and going faster has a trade off of a stiffer ride in the back! We're also on the hunt for a second rear charger.
Excellent comparison and super helpful! Thanks for putting this together. Do you think the X-Class would be better for off-roading if you swapped out the tires for more knobby ones?
Any Aussies watching this in 2022, do a search for Amped Bros, ACE-X models are based on the same frame as the Ariel D, with many other similarities, 7-speed, tyres, dual-motor, bottle holder, taillight, reflectors, throttle, if this is what you want, you can have it now in Australia.
Thanks for doing this!! I'm torn between D-class and Grizzly. Neither are an option to test ride, so I'm going off research and word of mouth. Quick question! You mentioned the D-class is your favorite between the 3. What reasoning? I only ask because it could help me figure out which one I get. I live in a very flat state and about 80% of usage will be on pavement, trips will be relatively short (no more than 15 miles in any direction), and it's going to be mostly for scooting around town on nice days and then the occasional adventure. I like the look of the D-class better, but also want a great performance. Above everything, I put performance. If the extra battery is worth it performance-wise, I may just go with the Grizzly. If it's not really a big difference, I'll most likely go with D-class. What do you think? Great video, btw!! Thank you!!
I have the D class, for me the Grizzly would probably weigh too much. I have to put it in my camper quite a bit when we go camping. The battery life drains quickly when kids are riding with me, but mostly because we weigh quite a bit.
Yeah I agree the d class all day long! It’s a lot of fun and it’s lighter ….and it has a cup holder haha which I use all the time!!! And I don’t like the style and colors of the grizzly ! Go D class it’s better!

dang… I still can’t decide which Ariel Rider to buy. I’m my new to ebike purchasing (i have a very powerful e-scooter called Vsett 10+ with 60v 25.6ah battery 1400w dual motor that I’m planning to sell soon since I wanna switch to ebikes). I’ve decided on Ariel Rider ebike than other brands- but im not sure if X-Class or D-Class is for me (Grizzly is super nice but too expensive for my budget). The D-Class seems dope cuz of the dual motor like my e-scooter, but unsure about range and gnarly hill climb since it’s only 48v, 21ah, while the X-class is 52v but at 18ah . My Vsett escooter can go 45 miles via aggressive riding (20 - 46mph) and extremely steep hill climbs in Seattle. Obviously I won’t be able to achieve 40+ mph with these ebikes but anyone know if X-Class can go farther than D-Class in real world range, throttle only going say 15mph - 30+mph?
We have some insane scooters too they are a ton of fun! But for bikes we go D class all day long… it has been the most fun out of all the bikes we’ve had!
Great Video, thanks! If you were only buying one, main use is a sub division and open field cruising around and short little downtown of a small town transportation, which would you get? Which is the most "fun"? I weigh 290lbs also...
Hey Ivan! Would you leave a review of your Grizzly on PeopleRevieweBikes.com? We’re creating an independent platform for riders to share their thoughts, away from censorship. We’d love to have your review on the site!
Ebikes might be the future if they come up with a power source better than LI-ion batteries. I've been riding over 50 years, routinely covering up to 700 miles/day! No e-vehicles can do that yet.... Don't get me wrong, I love the lightweight aspect of the Sondors Metacycle's 80mph topend. Now for range
The seats have different shapes and the frames have different shapes as well I think you can switch the X class seat for the grizzly seat but the D class it is completely different and I don’t think would work well unfortunately because I would totally swap the seats as well!
Hey! Would you leave a review of your X-Class on PeopleRevieweBikes.com? We’re creating an independent platform for riders to share their thoughts, away from censorship. We’d love to have your review on the site!
So sorry for the delay, I'm guessing you've found an answer by now... But personally, we prefer the D-Class overall. Unfortunately I don't think its being sold anymore - such a bummer. The X-Class is a really great bike though! Thanks for watching and ride safe! 🙏🏼
Torque down your necks before riding or put some blue Loctite on the bolts if you push hard on your handlebars or after a wreck. The adjustability outweighs the concerns of slippage in my experience as a biker. Nice bikes.
Hi, have you experienced the handlebars rolling forward on the Grizzly as was your concern in this video now that you have had time to ride it? 4:08 in video
True! The low-cost approach will continue to be heavy, though, until the tech comes along. There are extremely light options out there (primarily in the eMTB and eroadbike space) but they're extremely pricey!
Hey Mike! The range for each model is listed on the Ariel Rider website (some of the models and specs have changed since this video was posted). In our experience though, the advertised range was accurate. Thanks for watching!
Great question. They're very different bikes (full suspension vs. hardtail, MTB vs Scrambler style, dual motor vs. single motor, different passenger capabilities, battery capacities, etc.). eBike can be very specific to what a person is looking to do. Have fun riding!
Good day, I reside in a jurisdiction that requires a 17 character serial number for ebikes over 500W. Does the Grizzly have a 17 character serial number? Thanks
Hey Peter yes it does come with the serial number on each bike with the sticker stating it’s a class to bike you would probably have to check with where you live to make sure it’s accepted but it does come with a serial number and a class 2 sticker
@@inGearAdventure I was researching these Ariels and found your channel (which is great by the way. thanks for the vids). then realized I knew you. But can't remember how. Can't remember if you were a former student of mine(Jeff Martin -- Mr. Martin). Or made we went to school together at some point? I went Churchill
That’s awesome man yeah I went to north and graduated in 2004! I spoke at Churchill a few times and had some friends who went there I’m sure we crossed paths! Did you end up getting an ebike?
i love everything about the D more EXCEPT i am very worried about not having rear suspension... i am 180 lbs but when i ride a normal mountain bike my a$$ always hurts so of course thats my top concern.. any thoughts please? looking at the D, the RX and the now the madmod, thank you!!!
Rear suspension is definitely a big benefit if you expect rough terrain, but you could get away with a hard tail if you'll mostly be riding on the street/bike paths! Best option is to try it out before buying, if possible!
"So now that the cops came by and then played with our e-bikes for a while..." There are some really dumb speed laws regarding e-bikes. So did they come to make sure you followed them and harass you, or were they really just interested?
@@inGearAdventure Cool, thanks for responding. Is there any way to change the handlebars on the X for a more upright position? And the saddle looks short, is it possible to switch out with a longer saddle like on the Grizzly?
Yeah if you find the right set you can totally customize the handlebars and the long Saddle We ordered from the website and we just swapped it out when it got here totally works great
Understandable. We're going to see if we can make some custom color modifications.. No issue so far, but we're going to double check now that we've been on a few rides!
My wife is 5’4” and she wants a bike where she can touch the ground while sitting on the bike. What’s the shortest person that you had on the D class that is able to touch the floor? Thank you, Iosif.
Me too. Waiting for them to make one a little smaller and lighter. I have a 28" inseam. I'm 5'3". Also make it less than 50 pounds, like 45 pounds. I'd buy it if it existed. Love the Ariel bikes.
@@iosifkovalenko8364 I'll find one soon. As much as I love the Ariel! Lectric etc, I have to think about realistically I'll be riding it. Maybe even a kid's bike? I may get by tooling around town with a 350 or 500 motor. If I get fit enough maybe step up later.
Good question. One the guys on the InGear team is almost 6' 4", and he prefers the D Class or Grizzly. The X Class is doable, but it would be much more comfortable if you swapped the bars for something BMX style. With all these bikes you won't ever be in the most comfortable position (because the seat can't be raised) for actually going and getting a pedal workout, but they're great for cruising/commuting/grocery runs/having fun.
Why dont the x class ones use mid motors, A mid is far more better for gear range, I just done a carrera hellcat lmt edition bafang mid motor build 750w, 1500w peak, With a 20ah battery cost me just over a grand, An for those specs im not getting any E-bike for that price, Plus putting the motor on myself gave me crazy self satisfaction, Prob more than just getting an E-bike delivered, I will say tho, I wish i had the same seat, My ass hole telling me its uncomfatable, lol, Anyone know the best seats for comfort on amazon or ebay, So many i dont know what to get, lol... I wonder what a cyc motor would be like on the x class, A mid motor is just so much better than a hub, Even my electric scooter is chain driven lol, I will say tho these Arials look proper comfortable, A lean back an relax ride, Beach rides, I prob would buy one if i had the spare money, But im so glad i done my own bafang build, Now i know how to fix it aswell, But these be nice if yoo bucked up, Here in the UK, People cant even afford gas, Wont the States share some of that petrol you all got, lol, I wonder if Biden even likes b0ris here in the UK, Never gave us a trade deal, Not suprised tho... I will say the E-bike industry is only just picking up here in the UK over the last 2 years, They still super expensive, So if a bike company was to hit the UK with an affordable E-bike a lot of money can be made, But whats more, More people will buy an E-bike, The prices scare a lot of people off, It dont cost that much to produce either, An if they are cheaper you will sell more, Therefore making more in the long run....
i tried to order a x class by phone this company never answers the phone so its not a good company for me .any company that cant answer the phone is bad
The Grizzly is right up there in terms of build quality and performance BUT what is up with the stupid Snow Flake Safety Bell ? LMAO ! ..., would a Horn be better ??.. A Cup holder ???... for a Latte ? OMG no ! Are these Electric Machines for the new Age Snowflakes ? Go Internal Combustion !

If you have the same sized gap all the way around on your stem and tighten it properly it should not move. Thats a nice bike collection!
It was actually the pivot point for adjusting the angle of the bars that moved. It was probably our fault for coming down on it hard off a jump 😬
Thanks for sharing this video very helpful and informative of the different models and the options on them.!
Love this bike! Having a blast on it.

This dude is a Effin Boss!!
Thanks for watching my man 👊👊👊
Wouldn't you be more comfortable on the X-class if you put the longer seat on it?
They have an extended seat, but we put that on the Grizzly! BMX stye bars would also help!

Awesome buddy, pleased have bumped into your channel, liked and subscribed 👍👍
Thanks much! We appreciate it!
Which is best. Grizzly, X class 52v, or D class? Which is fastest too?
It all depends on what you plan to use it for! X52 has fastest top speed in our experience, but the dual motors bikes have quicker acceleration.
Do they no longer sell the d class?
CAn you add those Kenda tires to the X Class ? Are the rims the same size ? I want to take my X class in some muck while scouting hunting trails.
If they're 4x20 you should be able to!

IS there a certain trail in the desert you ride? Ive been looking for a good trail in the socal-ish area.

Why dont the x class ones use mid motors, A mid is far more better for gear range, I just done a carrera hellcat lmt edition bafang mid motor build 750w, 1500w peak, With a 20ah battery cost me just over a grand, An for those specs im not getting any E-bike for that price, Plus putting the motor on myself gave me crazy self satisfaction, Prob more than just getting an E-bike delivered, I will say tho, I wish i had the same seat, My ass hole telling me its uncomfatable, lol, Anyone know the best seats for comfort on amazon or ebay, So many i dont know what to get, lol...
I wonder what a cyc motor would be like on the x class, A mid motor is just so much better than a hub, Even my electric scooter is chain driven lol, I will say tho these Arials look proper comfortable, A lean back an relax ride, Beach rides, I prob would buy one if i had the spare money, But im so glad i done my own bafang build, Now i know how to fix it aswell, But these be nice if yoo bucked up, Here in the UK, People cant even afford gas, Wont the States share some of that petrol you all got, lol, I wonder if Biden even likes b0ris here in the UK, Never gave us a trade deal, Not suprised tho...
I will say the E-bike industry is only just picking up here in the UK over the last 2 years, They still super expensive, So if a bike company was to hit the UK with an affordable E-bike a lot of money can be made, But whats more, More people will buy an E-bike, The prices scare a lot of people off, It dont cost that much to produce either, An if they are cheaper you will sell more, Therefore making more in the long run....
