    Ok a few things about the wobble. I ride every day 30-50 miles. I golfball hunt at night for my job. I go from pavement to grass, and rocky gravel roads. Have 1000 plus miles riding so far. About a month since i got the wired. PROs: torque and speed are awesome. Love the green color. Handle bars and display are great. Suspension is awesome I only had front before never the back, wow that maks a difference. Tires are so so, i changed them out with hed allscape witch are a little heavier. More solid ride. Dual batterys fricking awesome, i can go 40-50 miles and still have 50% left. Double. Chrgers are nice. Easy programming, love the password protected to turn on. Cruise control a good suprise. Bright headlight. This is what i can think of now. CONS: Customer service is not the best, I tried online and called. Had questions about the start about feeling like the motor is skipping.got no help, there was a squeal in the rear no help. DEATH WOBBLE IS JUST HORRIBLE! All sounds from fenders and back rack and battery rattling. Taillight rattle. No shock pump for suspension i bought one. THING I HAVE DONE: Tighting everything, rubber washers for anything making sounds. Between the rear rack and the rear battery jamed in foam to stop the movement of the battery. Better pedals. New all scape tires. New headset, putting it on tonight. (The one they sent) Took motor insert out and regrease.(there was not enough grease from factory) Adjust shock with high pressure pump. Put a GPS sticker on.(fake) if I Remermber more I will add it later. Any questions leave a reply. The pros outweighs the cons for me. Love this bike, could be better though. One last thing I have rear saddle bags I use alot, put 10-20 pounds each side helps with the wobble.

      The top hellbender visco set is awesome! No play at all, but I'm getting used to it. I can tell i need to ride more to get the feel. High speeds 35-40 there is no wobble and the bike rides great. Every ebike should have this! I hit bumps and a small shimmy would happen on any bike that I have owned. No shimmy at all in the front. A little wobble in the back but not in the front. I'm going to put the headbands visco head set on every bike that I will own. Best way to describe it, like getting new tierods on a car, no play of shimmy!

    From what I’ve seen online it appears the wobble is from the lateral slack of the rear soft tail at the joint. When they added the weight of the rear battery it exacerbated the design flaw. Essentially like a dog wagging its tail/butt.

    Judging by the comments, if I was Wired, I'd be shitting my pants right now. This has class action written all over it. There is nothing wrong with customers wanting a secure safe build. Instead of excuses and pointing fingers at the end users they should recall the bikes with a full refund for the bike and shipping. All it's going to take is one really bad spill, a major injury or worse and it's going to get nasty. There must be a design flaw. If there was knowledge of it before releasing the bikes, hoping no one would notice, that's a criminal act. Foisting this product on an unsuspecting public is unethical. My bike wobbles and It's too bad. My excitement has dwindled. I cannot ride it without giving this flaw my tacit approval. Right now, I'm looking at a $2,000.00 door stop. Wired needs to make it right by informing all purchasers in writing, along with an appropriate solution.

    Wasn't there a massive rivalry between this brand and the "E-Cells" e-bikes?
    If this is how they are treating their customers, well it's a no-brainer and people will take note and they're gunna buy the 'E-cells 5 star' (or another similar E-bike) instead.
    They should be reaching out to their customers and offering to fix/resolve the issue at the very least.
    Shame on them.

    The wobble happens without any inducement. It doesn’t happen when you take the rear battery out. Tightening down the headset does nothing. I received the email and was like no thanks I’ll just pay out of pocket for one if it’s shown to correct the problem. I just didn’t like the tone of the email tbh.

    People are strange, tell them anything and they will jump on to join in on the drama to enjoy for years to come, do I believe there is a wobble on WIRED bikes? I sure do, how do I know, I have a 24 WIRED with the dual battery setup. does my WIRED Bike wobble? a little bit yes.
    However, I have had other non-electric or motorized bikes in the past and some of those had a wobble as well, to me, this issue with WIRED is rife with a whole lot of hyperbole and drama as I said, people will gravitate a cause and run with it regardless if they even own a WIRED or not, humans are strange yet fascinating creatures and I personally write a lot of this to this fact.
    Now, could WIRED have done a better job handling all this and other issues? Absolutely, you should never discount peoples/customers legitimate concerns and come up with a solution that's not BS and that is fair to all parties involved.
    Over all I think WIRED bikes are well made, strong, fast and powerful, but after riding it for just over 2 weeks now, I wish I had not bought it, why do I say this? the bike is huge, heavy and cumbersome for me and while I actually enjoy riding it, I am not really all that happy with the overall look and largeness of this bike. perhaps in time I will get used to it. but I don't think so, It seems now that my own personal ego is preventing me from likening this bike, however this is just personal preference not necessarily the fault of or reflection of WIRED.
    My guess at the end of the day, there is a problem that needs to be addressed for sure, but I bet 75% of the new complaints are from people who actually never discovered the issue on their own and have just now joined the bandwagon with this drama, people really love drama and there is no denying this fact.
    If you have a circle of 25 people and you start a rumor by whispering to the person next to you, by the time the last person hears the story it’s totally changed from the original, this is one of the flaws or traits in human nature, why? I have no idea. HUMANS LOVE DRAMA

    I find it interesting that there is no comparison videos comparing the wired freedom and the E cells five star. What turns me off about wired is how it’s customers worship the freaking company, and you never get the truth out of it, you only get them bad mouthing you if you dare question the company or its bikes. I’ve actually talked to the owner of East sales personally, and the dude was very approachable and open to any questions I had for him. I bought an Onyx CTY2 last year, and I love it, but now I’m looking to purchase an ecells five star at the beginning of this next year.

    Look when you add 12+ lbs to the rear you will induce a wobble, on pretty much every high center of mass bike. Take the back battery off and it is MUCH better. Also, if you're fat (230+ lbs and under 6'6'') that is going to mess with the center of mass and induce a wobble. Lose some weight.

    Have you seen this video? He did some really good test and seems to have narrowed it down to the rear battery pack on the 2024 models. Seems like an frame engineering issue and weight issue. If some other company fails to engineer their bike properly and someone throws 10 to 15 pounds on their rear rack...it seems they'd have the same issue. Wired needs to step up and own it and find a solution whether that be sending owners to authorized bike repair shops or reimbursing current owners the cost of repairing the bike. If the bike can't be repaired due to engineering, they need to eat the cost, fix the issue, and send a new bike out to current owners.
    Being defensive about the issue and telling people that it's their manufacturers fault is how companies become a memory. I was sold on this bike based off of so many positive reviews and I'm glad I didn't buy it. Now, if e-cells would fix their stupid site so I can choose my bike size, color, and customize other parts like video reviews showed you could...I'd order their bike.

    Death wobble is a bike defect common with motorcycles that have bad design for high speed acceleration .. mostly due to improper tire pressure or loads not balanced. It happens even if both hands are on the bars or grips. Death wobble can not happen on an e bike if you are riding with hands on the bars .. If it does, you really bought a piece of crap.

    I saw citizen cycle did a video on the wobble. He basically made a case since other bikes do it that it’s okay for the wired bike to do it. Not a good argument at all. He also discovered it’s a weight distribution issue. Can you imagine putting a kid seat on the back with a kid in it. Imagine that wobble. The only answer should be all these bikes need to fix the wobble. I canceled my order due to really late delivery after seeing the wobble I am glad I did. Ecells needs to step up their game a little bit in controller and power. Wired did force Ecells to offer more bike at a better price. So that the only win out of the new 2024 wired model

It’s a weight distribution issue with the suspension. He also showed many bikes wobble like that. I think it’s a flaw in the design of some of these e-bikes. There are plenty of dual suspension e bikes that don’t wobble. They might just need to redesign things. Being weight on the rear of the bike increases the amount of wobble

    Legally you see in that notice to owners of the wired freedom 24+ is the result of the ownership of the bike company. From what I understand or remember reading it owned by two attorneys.
    From what I understand of the differences in the manufacturing techniques between the wired and the cell five star which is an equivalent bike, the cells is using bearings at the rear suspension, pivot points, where the wired freedom uses plastic bushings. This accounts for the sloppiness in the wired design which causes the head wiggle experience by riders of the freedom.

    If you're riding an e-bike then you should always have both hands on the handlebar just like electric scooters. Unless you have a steering dampener within the steering column then all ebikes will wobble as you accelerate. If you're just pedaling or coasting then I seriously doubt it's going to wobble. Someone do a test with the ecell bike and you'll get the same wobble.

      Do you, and the rest of his fans never wonder why he refuses to review an E-Cells ebike, even though E-Cells is wireds biggest competitor? What I mean is, the e-cells five star is the obvious equivalent, and yet citizen cycle doesn’t feel any need to review it? Do you honestly believe that the man who’s literally already made 8-10 freaking videos, exclusively for the purpose of highlighting the latest wired freedom and wired cruiser bikes alone, was doing so for any purpose other than because he’s obviously a paid spokesperson? The dudes literally NEVER said anything critical of the company or the bikes.
      Quite the contrary!
      A few videos back, he made a video solely for the purpose of trying to quickly get out ahead of the devastating articles and customer complaint videos regarding dozens, if not hundreds of wireds customers warning current and potential customers about how their wired e-bikes were plagued with what they themselves called a “death wobble”.
      If his subscribers were actually capable of thinking critically, that video itself might have been the career ended for citizen cycle, considering he was putting his reputation on the line to defend a bike and company, even while knowing the warnings about the deaths wobble were true!
      Why would he risk everything to make that propaganda video to save wired from the impending doom that was on the horizon? Well duh! It was because he feared the potential impact its downfall and destruction was surely going to have on his own future earning ability with the companies success!
      YES, you can take it to the bank! $300 per ebike which is sold using his link to purchase wireds e-bikes!
      Besides though, while it may seem as though the wired freedom is the five star equivalent, e-cells doesn’t charge extra for shipping, they actually stand behind their product 100%, and the frame on every e-cells ebike is backed by a lifetime warranty!
      Compare that to Wired ebikes, a company that has never taken ownership of any of the problems their customers have had with their wired ebikes!

    Just went thru this, the new 2024 models with dual batteries are NOT UL 2849 certified. I referenced the blog article on their page that says they are and looked over the drop box UL testing documents. They were for the single battery version. The UL 2849 cert is for the entire system, batteries, controller and chargers. They changed to a 45 amp controller so, balancer and extra battery so it needs a new cert. I contacted wired and told them it was confusing because the product names are identical but the UL certs are different. They told me the new models are in the process of certification and UL has the bikes now. I cancelled my order and will reorder when they are UL certified and it was most primary consideration when selecting a bike. Probably why they removed the UL article as it was misleading. This was on 7/31/24.

    Great video! My question is, are they actually telling customers to tighten the headset bolt as tight as possible? I don't own one of these bikes, but I can tell you that I've read and also been told by my bike shop that you should never tighten the headset bolt as tight as you can, as this will damage the headset bearings. I've replaced three stems on different bikes that I own and was always told to just tighten that bolt to the recommended torque specs.
