A left side throttle takes about 5 minutes to get used to, and that's after decades of (speaking for myself) riding with right side throttles on moto bikes. My right hand is busy shifting. If if really gives someone a problem, it's no big deal to move it over to the right side! This bike seems to be a pretty good bang for the ebuck, assuming it has quality cells in that pack, something he just glossed over.
I got this bike (EUNORAU) through Alibaba and saved some money. But if to do over again, I would have gotten from Kyle with Bolton Bikes. Because of great customer service. I don't mind having throttle on left size. I wish the battery was at least a samsung/LG/panasonic battery. But its a china battery. The issue with buying bike from China and dealing with them is their customer service. I had issue and their solution was to spend more money on another part and download software program to program your bike for new settings. Be careful if you do this because the software they send you is corrupt with a virus. I'm just going to leave the bike as is and deal with it. Just giving you folks out there (Buyer Beware). Eventually after a year or two, I'll change the controller/battery out and reprogram bike then. But I'll make sure I do this locally. This company would do well if they spend money on a local person in Vegas to help out with customer service and answer the phone. You call the number and no one answers. You call rep in New York and this person will answer but no help at all. I Love all the bike reviews from EBR but I can tell where they highlight all the good and gloss over the bad. But thats ok. I can see through it. Keep video reviews coming!
I bought this bike. I had issue with bike and there customer service is terrible. If you get warranty which they come with. The warranty means nothing. If you LOVE Frustration then you should buy this bike. All they have to do is stand behind their product and support it. Buy they wont and will tell you it's your fault. I gave them plenty of opportunity to come to resolution and they wont budge. I might try to get a hold of the owner but I have feeling that he'll be the same as his customer service person. I hope BTN can get their $iht together and do whats right or they will fail selling ebikes in USA. I Love watching EBR's ebike reviews and finding the right ebike that works for me. I narrowed all my choices down to watching reviews and trying out ebikes on test rides.
I just bought a RAD city thanks to your reviews. I would love to see a review on airless tires for the Rad city or the armour tires and or Tuffies and thorn resistant tubes. I never had any luck with slime.

I ordered this bike but its illegal here (thumb throttle) and i actually needs to have a license plate and insurence for it. Now when i just drive it like a cat 2 bike 20mph max would anyone suspect anything? You cant see anything on the bike that really gives it away does it?
I don't understand, if your being paid to do the review by the ebike manufacturer, how does that make you unbiased? Consumer Reports refuses to take money or free products so that they can be unbiased.
Electric motors are low maintenance and this is not a set-up for the home mechanic. In other words, there is no electric motor self-help how to guide for crafty owner geeks to go break things further. If it needs attention, YOU don't do any maintenance - you book it in to get serviced at an authorised bike shop / reseller who will perform the service.
I am trying to find an EUNORAU qualified service center to do some modification on a 48V 1000 w fat tire ebike but I am unable to find one. I want 9" high rise bars that may require longer cables and moving the left hand thumb drive to the right with a grip drive and moving the shift lever to the left. Anybody know of any service center in the LA or SoCal area?
Thats because none of these Chinese bikes have that available. You might find a shop that will be willing to work on it but really depends on where you are located.
how come im seeing this bike listed under 3 different maker/company names, i want this one but im just not sure which company i should get it from,is everything exactly the same from each company or? ,,i first seen it on "bolton electric bikes" and was going to get from there then as i researched it abit more i found 2 others, i obviously want the one that has all the best parts equipped..

17:43 To the Reviewer...DO NOT SHIFT UNDER FULL POWER!!! That is the NUMBER ONE thing you DO NOT DO with an Ebike!!! ugh. That is the best way to DESTROY a drivetrain! You should know better!
FIrst E-bike.... This or a Ripcurrent S (closeout version since new ones are out of stock for a while). Even the Closeout version is torque rather than cadence sensing, but it's a hub motor rather than mid drive, plus old one is 750w vs 1000w. Don't really want to go over ~$2500 for my first ebike.
I'm sure you have made up your mind I have the RipCurrent s but the one I have is without fenders and the 750 watt 1300 peak motor. It also has the RST ( Rigid Spring technology ) front fork otherwise it's the same as the S. Bought new from a guy on Facebook for $1100 and its one of the best ebikes I have had ( I have had 9 this year ) But I'm looking at a mid motor and the Fat HD has peeked my interest.. I'm trying to find out if it's got a torque sensor I don''t want a cadence. If you do know get back to me Cheers..
This doesn't class as much of an issue in bicycles as the power output is negligible compared to motorcycles. Keep in mind, the e-bicycle motor isn't delivering 1000W constantly nor is the bicycle travelling very fast as often as a motorcycle does. Bicycle chains are a lot less complex and a lot cheaper than motorcycle chains and there is no danger like on a motorcycle with the engine going haywire when the chain snaps, or the thing being spat out and injuring someone or something. So, to reiterate, the lifespan on a bicycle is a little thought about issue. In saying that, the e-bile chains are specced for e-bike use and are made from tougher, more durable metal alloys. Hope this helps.
@@jefflongshore1663 Well, it is required that the wattage of the motors be printed on the bikes. In some areas, anything over 750 watts has to be permitted/licensed as a motor vehicle and be street legal, and there are parks that won't allow ebikes with over a certain wattage on their trails. Since there are laws regulating them, I would assume the possibility of being checked is real.
rear light location makes it basically useless and if u have something on the rack it can't be seen at all. adjustable rear rack mounted single/dual light fixtures or mounted on the rear tube or seat stays are a needed invention imho. 160 mm discs are standard now; 180 mm would qualify as pretty good not the 160's ijs They need to make a thumb/trigger throttle that has an adjustable high rise offset. the it can be put on the handlebars and not interfere so much with snifters etc. . i can imagine many folks would buy a certain model over another based on that feature alone. the cut out rims are bs even though weight is saved. 2" wide tires saves weight and adds speed because of less rotation. far better for folks who are urban warriors and street riders. also extends range as mention above as well. Hopefully makers will realize this niche and if they do they will steel a ton of customers from the 4" tire bikes. throttle needs to be direct. especially for riders like myself who only use throttle. i and others have disabilities like bad hips/knees etc and we can't peddle without sever pain. also the throttle connected to pedal assists forces you to have to make changes you shouldn't have to think about imho. the throttle operation killed this bike for me to buy it very disappointed . oh well the search goes on
Since this has a legit 1000W Bafang motor, wouldn't this be considered a Class 4 E-bike? Thus making it illegal to ride in the city/roads in virtually every State in the US. I know where I live the State adopted the "model" e-bike law (like the majority of other US States) so a bike with a 1000 watt motor is considered a motor vehicle. The problem of course: no one knows how to issue a license or insurance for a bicycle that is treated like a motor vehicle. so it ends up if you ride it on the street, you're taking a chance every time the police might stop you. Honestly, it;s probably a very small chance if you aren't being stupid, but it's a chance nonetheless.
I could not give this (WAY OVER PRICED), E-bike, nor the review a thumbs up. There are to many things wrong with this bike that were not mentioned. Also there are a lot of improvements that could, and should be made to this bike. I wouldn't even test ride this bike, never mind purchase it. If you ask me this bike is not safe to ride, as is. I rode bicycles, dirt bikes, mopeds, motorcycles, quads, you name it, my whole life, and never ran across a thumb throttle on the LEFT. That is just plane ridiculous. The front sprocket with all that power, and speed has no chain guide or chain guard. Not only cheap & unsafe, but that is downright scary! The mechanical brakes are totally inadequate, and unsafe for a bike of this weight, tire size, and speed, (cheap & scary). The seat has to be the cheapest, and most uncomfortable looking seat I ever saw in life. As for that small, badly located LED Display. How am I even suppose to see that tiny thing there on the left while watching the road or trail. It would most likely be wiped out, broke off with the first tree limb I brushed by anyway. May as well have no display then to have one you have to squint to see and then go off trail and crash, very unsafe. The color choses are black or blue, that's it. I do like blue, but would prefer a bright color choose like white with orange. Something that can be easily seen on the road, and at night. Noteworthy to mention is there is only one sticker, (decal) on the side motor, and a tag in the front to an otherwise solid colored bike. Not a lot of imagination nor thought put into that one. I do like the battery style, and how it seems to mold, or blend into the frame. That is most likely the only thing I do like about this bike. At first I did like the metal fenders, but then thought, metal they will dent easy, and most like rust fast. This made in China bike does offer some limited US support, and with all the grinding, and banging noises I heard test riding it in the video I'd say your gunna need it. In conclusion I see an E-Bike that was designed in a way to keep manufacturing cost As Low As Possible, while maintaining the highest possible profit margin. I should also address the fact that this bike with a top speed of 28 mph with or without PAS, and the 1000 Watt battery make this bike NOT STREET LEGAL in most, if not all US States. Like I stated in the beginning of this comment, the bike is way WAY OVER PRICED ! I will not give my opinion on the value of this bike, to me there is none.
Bill Felix then put the throttle on the right side. I agree it’s safer that way. Most of the time you don’t need a throttle. Just pedal and adjust the controller level. Btw, Bafang, although Chinese, are some of the quietest and most powerful/ torque motors around. I love mine.
A decent entry level bike, most of the needed improvements could be made later as needed. It's major advantage is it uses the highly regarded BBSHD, a proven unit. I have three of those motors right now.

Hello, my name is Mikey. I've been in the electric bike industry for about 6 years now. I've done EBRs every now and again starting in 2017. Check out the recent factory tour videos to see more. Cheers!
Ken Rihanek exactly, like what? I have a Bafang mid motor with 750w and it’s smooth, powerful and quiet with no problems. Are you worried about chain breaking? If you shift properly and keep the chain properly lubricated, that’s shouldn’t be a problem. Even if you break a chain, the repair kits are so quick, small and cheap and they’ll fit under the seat!
This is a reasonably thorough and competent review but you have a serious communication flaw... and the flaw is "kind of like" in just about every 2nd sentence. It's seriously annoying. These are kind of like things we have seen over time. What is a "kind of like" thing? Kind of like a pedal; Kind of like brake levers. A pedal is a pedal and a lever is a lever. Well "kind of" talk about that in a minute. How does one "kind of talk"? You either talk or you don't talk. There's no such thing as "kind of talk". There are some kind of like options... Something either is an option or it isn't. There's no such thing as a "kind of like option". They kind of save weight... There's no such thing as kind of saving weight. It's kind of becoming an industry standard. How do you "kind of" become something? The sun shines - it doesn't kind of shine. I think you use this when your confidence lags but it's probably also a really bad habit. It would serve you (and us viewers) well to sort it out.
17:11 These sound recordings are invaluable, they keep showing me how silent my Shimano hub gear is in comparison. Great video as always, cheers!
