I think the Ridstar Q20 is a great entry level bike in this category. I haven't ridden it (I have the Engwe) but it's gotten some good reviews. The biggest drawback is it's got a small-ish 20 Ah battery, but it's got a fairly punchy motor, hydraulic brakes, and dual suspension and you can find it for < 1000. No idea what their support is like though. I think it's going to be good competition for the Engwe for best entry level value. I have the M20 and I'm actually thinking about the Ridstar for my wife :).
Thanks for the info. I'm very happy with my Ariel Rider X-Class and just ordered a Spark Cycleworks Bandit. I love the Moped style ebikes especially the longer flat seats in order to get best pedaling position.
@@TheFrickinShredder My Ariel Rider pedals great.I just put a 60 tooth sprocket on it to improve the pedaling more. The Bandit comes with a 60 tooth sprocket and I'm hoping it's as pedal friendly as my X-Class. I usually try to stay below 20 mph anyway, just for the longer battery range. if I need speed , I just grab my CS20 Cyclone. Only time I pedal it is when I see law enforcement.
@@TheFrickinShredder I'm 5'8" and that's the way I feel on my Cyclone. With the Arial Rider I can slide back far enough on the seat to really get comfortable.
Eahora Romeo (2,880Wh): Range claim is 70-112 miles Bee Challenger (1,440Wh): Range claim is 80-110 miles It’s quite wild how there’s a huge difference in battery capacity but the range claim are about identical. Would’ve expected Romeo to have more miles range than Bee Challenger if not double than that of Bee Challenger.
I think Eahora is breaking with tradition and actually giving you an honest estimate of how far it will go with a normal sized rider in normal riding conditinos. Most of the time what you get for these estimates is what it will do riding only in pedal assist 1, with a raccoon for a rider, peddaling furiously, riding around a track in an inside jym with somebody riding behind you blowing a high-powered fan at your back.
A couple of these bikes were on my possible list, I went with the eahora hedonic cupid 1000W electric bike, I liked the way it looked and it's range of up to 110 miles with pas 60 miles electric alone. Hoping I made a good choice, I couldn't find reviews on it yet, it arrives in the first week of January 2024
I have the Engwe M20 and I don't recommend it for an adult rider, it has lots of issues and is overall a poor-quality bike. Maybe it's good for a teenager or something but that's it. I plan to get an Annoki, Ariel Rider or a Revv soon.
Surprised you didn't look at the ristretto electric bike. Other than the seat which you can customize the raw power is unheard of using a middrive cyc.
i see the Bee Challenger also has a 1000w peak 1300w for 2500$ but the eahorae is still only 2300$. also see the X-Class 52V Ebike 20ah for 2200$ im looking for something on and off road with nice speed and torque, i had my eye on the YYG BR100 mopad stye ebike but it might be on the cheaper side all around lol
Have you checked out the freego f2 pro? Its surprisingly good for what it is. Little pricey depending on an individuals budget, 2 grandish without a sale
I have never ridden one but for the price it feels like you can't go wrong. It's powerful enough, stylish, has the full suspension and even mag wheels. I'd give it a try myself if I were in your position.
Great review. I would like to say that the Spark Bandit probably better than all of these bikes. 2k nominal motor, full suspension, headlight, tail light, turn signals, hydraulic brakes, 7 speed derailer, 5 pedal assist, 60 tooth chain ring, 40mph, dual batter option, comes with vin number, and stylish. Price only $3,195 base model. I have a Bandit. BEST bike ever!!! MORE Bandit content please
@@TheFrickinShredder Naw I feel you bro. Yea I do love me bike though. But yea I think the dual head light is a little funky to me, kinda makes it look like a bug lol. I got mine with just the single headlight though. Anyways good review though!!!
@@lawrencejones8011A good competitor against the Spark Bandit is the Eunorau Flash. The triple battery maxed out mid-drive model of Eunorau Flash costs $2,997. The Flash is of course a 52 volts battery electric bike. Flash got an 8-speed shifter, bigger battery capacity than Bandit, mid-drive motor, hydraulic brakes, 440 pounds payload capacity, whopping 220 newton meters of torque, full suspension, and 5 pedal assist. The base model of the Flash is way lower than $2,997. I’m honestly surprised that not more people review or even talk about the mid-drive Eunorau Flash.
@@TheFrickinShredderthe specs are good, but the lengthy frame from seat to handle bars is too long, i guess it can accommodate a big custom battery, i need to make time to drive up their place to test drive and develop my own opinion on it, drive safe🙏
Fat tire ebikes are a waste of time and money if you are not going to use them for off road only. They are useless for street and urban riding. The rolling resistance on a 3 or 4 inch tire is terrible and they are a waste of battery power, and they are very uncomfortable to ride and pedal because of the seat design. They are just a fad because of all the hype and over priced as well. No company could give me one, I'd tell them No Thank You...
I would almost agree, but if you go with a mountain style, mid-drive torque sensor, suspension, dual battery, you can have some fun, w/a Bixtrix Beast....its the most natural peddling bike w/160nm, 1000w motor, w/1.5kw battery power...
I like my S4 EUYBIKE, 1000W motor, 25AH battery, dual suspension. 1,299 right now

Definitely a contender. Hadn’t heard of it.
🏅Eahora Romeo Pro!🏆What a bike! Great Video Dude!!Thanks Kevin!👌
Agreed. Thx 🙏
Eahora needs better Quality Control but I like riding it.
Thanks for the info. I'm very happy with my Ariel Rider X-Class and just ordered a Spark Cycleworks Bandit. I love the Moped style ebikes especially the longer flat seats in order to get best pedaling position.
Agreed. I’m a big fan too for crushing purposes. Not great for pedaling.

I hear ya. You can pedal them but at 6 ft tall my knees are in my mouth

Nice! 🤜🤙
OUXI V8 MAX Dual 48v 15ah batteries, 31mph, upgraded hydraulic brakes and rear rack - $918 plus $118 shipping
Eahora Romeo (2,880Wh): Range claim is 70-112 miles
Bee Challenger (1,440Wh): Range claim is 80-110 miles
It’s quite wild how there’s a huge difference in battery capacity but the range claim are about identical. Would’ve expected Romeo to have more miles range than Bee Challenger if not double than that of Bee Challenger.
Agreed. I’d say Romeo goes upwards of 65-70 and Juliet probably 50 in retrospect

You’re also looking at a ~30 pound difference in bike weight alone.

Well,I came in close second with my Ariel Rider Grizzly! Love the AWD I don’t think I’ll be upgrading
Wr can all look at specs. We watch reviews to see the reality. Does the Happyrun do 28 or not? More? Less?
Not a review.
Theres a video of the Romeo and the guy couldnt go past 31mph and other owners has verified this so real world comparisons are in order.
I got the G60 with hydrologic breaks I love it for 989$ I just wish it went faster. They have the g100 that doubles the range and goes 38mph
At that price you can’t expect much.
@@TheFrickinShredder 31 mph is not bad I should edit and say my real gripe is the range but an extra battery is easy to add on
Just orderd the ariel rider x class 52v 1000w motor ....36mph full suspension...on sale for 1899$
Nice
Surprised you didn't look at the ristretto electric bike. Other than the seat which you can customize the raw power is unheard of using a middrive cyc.
ristretto electric bike, Eahora Remeo, and the Roadrunner pro for portability as a second bike.
i see the Bee Challenger also has a 1000w peak 1300w for 2500$ but the eahorae is still only 2300$. also see the X-Class 52V Ebike 20ah for 2200$ im looking for something on and off road with nice speed and torque, i had my eye on the YYG BR100 mopad stye ebike but it might be on the cheaper side all around lol
Great content! 👍
Thank you! 👍
Have you tried the Aniioki A8 Pro Max 52v ? it's the same price as the Romeo but like 1000w, 52v 60ah. I'm looking at both of these now.
did not mention in the video, about shipping coast.& also $ tax.
Have you checked out the freego f2 pro? Its surprisingly good for what it is. Little pricey depending on an individuals budget, 2 grandish without a sale
Interesting. Affordable and powerful.
Xtrail bandit pro is a good contender
I have really been considering the happyrun, because of the price, but I have not seen many reviews on youtube. would you recommend it?
I have never ridden one but for the price it feels like you can't go wrong. It's powerful enough, stylish, has the full suspension and even mag wheels. I'd give it a try myself if I were in your position.
do you have a video on the faster side of e bikes
Completely missed the one. Rev 1
Had never heard of it. Looks good though.
How on sweet earth you didn't include ride1up revv 1?

What’s up with the voodoo? Been forever
Yes it has.
.
When you see the reviewer doing doughnuts, mentioning wheel spin and saying "badass"... Don't expect a comprehensive review (unless your 12).
😂👍
Half of these don’t even look like mopeds
Great, important observation. 👍
Super 73 is terrible
