    Good review! I like that it looks like a bike and is lighter than most. I'm not a fan of the left throttle purely because I have a bad left arm. I haven't seen a twist shifter in a couple decades but its not like other bikes have anything better. Both are cheap af

    Hey Chithead. You better start looking for a 'PUBLIC STORAGE' because you dont have a garage like Citizen Cycle.' Or next time your in L.A. you can drop off this new ebike. I have a garage with no cars in it. i use it for tool storage. So let me know. Thanks Chithead.

    Cool that it has hydraulic brakes....im personally not a fan of thumb throttle or twist gear shifter, but cool bike overall. Too bad the front fork bottoms and no rear suspension.. .nakes it rough compared to the Freedom. Great review buddy!

      I agree on the shifter. Thumb throttle on right is ok because of atc/atv. But do prefer half or full right twist throttle.

    • @shootthechit
      @shootthechit  4 месяца назад +1

      Yea, we get so used to the traditional throttle and shifter, then riding a bike like this throws you all off.

    PAS sounds like cadence/torque sensor hybrid(like >85% of all things nowadays). Aside from current ride, this is one of Very few bike reviews that feature twist-shift. Not big fan! Being this is 1300w, how's it compare to Goat, E-Cells & Wired?...Stay Safe Ride Safer, STC...Keep the rubber to the road!... Aloha from Hawaii

    • @shootthechit
      @shootthechit  3 месяца назад

      This bike isn't too bad, it feels so much lighter and nimble than a lot of the others. The problem with the PAS setup is it ends up draining the battery really quick so I feel ilke getting a 2nd battery would be a must. Its quick but those other bikes are 60volt with double the power so its not really a fair comparison.
