How come you went for a 20" instead of a 26" bike? Im contemplating between the two sizes as they are near the same price. Im leaning to 20" becuase im 5"7 short.
the first 47 seconds of this video is really great. you get it. thats how to show off a bike! i cant watch or get anything out of a first person view. mad props to your filmer

Or, hear me out, use that thing sitting on top of your neck and build your own. The batteries are the most expensive thing, but all e-bike batteries are made with 18650 batteries. Those batteries are cheap or at least much cheaper than the e-bike battery sold as one. Get yourself some 18650 batteries watch some instructional videos on RUclips and rent a spot welder to assemble them. $100-$150 you have yourself a powerful ebike battery that would normally run you about $800. Now get a 1000+watt rear hub and a bike to put it on. $400 all in depending on the cost of the bike itself with better range, speed and power than e bikes that cost $3000+

Great review, Thanks. I bought a Lectric, upgraded to a Yamee Fat Bear 500w, and now upgrading to a Yamee XL 750. Seeing your video is making me second guess my color choice. I ordered the Orange, but damn that silver looks awesome.
@@Stevioslawgeek1979 I liked the Lectric XP. It was my first EBike. It’s nice, but lacking on features and power. It looks great and the customer support is awesome being in the US. Having front suspension, Hydraulic Brakes and more power and Range are game changers though.
I’m also close to pulling the trigger on an XL. I think the only thing that’s caused me to waiver is what I’ve heard about customer support. I just wanna make sure that I end up with a company that stands behind their product especially since they’re shipping it to me and it can be damaged in transit or something may not be working properly. Just to have the peace of mind is huge. But it does look like an absolutely Great bike that checks all my boxes
Look into description box for breakfree lights. There is a coupon there to get better deal. I made a video review of this product. I love it. It's the best safest gadget to own if you ride ebikes or motorcycle.
About the Polarna M4, Yamee XL, GDS, Rattan, Engwe Engine Pro - as seems like these brands use the same contract manufacturer and design, or maybe they are all the same company. At some point if you could review all of these models and compare ride, specs, performance, price, quality, accessories, customer service - THAT would be a VERY useful video and maybe would get much greater views. Just idea to pass along - keep up the great work.
if you can provide all of these bike than I will do it or get a group of people to each gather the funds and get these bikes over to me than I will make the reviews.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace haha - I'm just an idea guy for you in this case - good luck. I see many people reviewing each e-bike model, but nobody yet is comparing the pros and cons.

Thanks for the video. Just watched a video of one of these bikes going dead after a month of use. Have you had any problems with this bike? I believe the guy was on his way to work and jumped a curve, then the bike shut off. Couldn't get it going and there's no updates. In the market on purchasing an ebike, but just don't know which to get. I like the grizzly, super73, lectric xp ebikes and yamee. Not to sure anymore haha. Thanks.
Great video and nice to also see it's use in NYC. Living here as well and in the beginning stage of research on e-bikes. First review of this bike. And excellent info to add to list of considerations. Thanks for all the time and info given in the video! Subscribed!
Nice, but I want an e- bike that has mag wheels instead of spokes, like ones from Greenbike USA. You don't have to be concerned about spokes loosening or breaking.
Seems so cool but agree that putting that wiring harness in the frame somehow would make it way way better. This looks like a prototype. Maybe that's fine given that it folds so well but one would think a later version might improve on that.
yes indeed. It is not a prototype. They are selling this version in US. I think its not hard to place the wires inside the frame if you have a shop and tools. The bike is nice to ride, I like it a lot.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace I see it on amazon. But the frame has the battery and otherwise needs to fold so maybe not as easy to reroute the cables as one would hope - but an interesting idea. Seems like a great bike in any case. Folding has appeal for my use case which is to drive into a city and use e-mobility while there...
I have a question for you. I am buying an eBike for the first time. The Yamee sounds amazing, but do the fat tires come with the protective layer for flats? Where I live, there's a lot of prickles. I get a flat tire at least twice a month. Thats why it is of utmost importance for me to make sure the bike comes with that layer. Thank you for your time.
First I would say do not buy yamee but Vitilan I7 pro. Much better quality and much higher performance model also priced lower. You can buy better tires separately and you will be alright.
You have to decide whether you want to ride all the way there just so you can ride down the stairs at the end or ride 3 miles and put it on the front rack of the metro bus for 20 miles.
They will prevent your using many city buses. I see that as a negative point regarding it being suitable as a mixed-mode commuting bike. The extremely fat tires will not fit into almost all city *bus* external bike rack tire slots I've seen. The tires are just too wide. Most racks on the city buses seem to be designed for the thinner "city street" tires. Plus, my experience has been that when a bike doesn't fit in the rack most drivers will not allow the larger folding bikes (20" and above) to be carried on board the bus. In some cities they even stop me from carrying a much smaller folded 16-inch bike on board the bus (I checked this even when the tires would fit in the rack tire slots just to see if they would allow it. It's up to each driver and seemed to be about 50/50 and depending somewhat on the number of passengers onboard.)
That's sad how they make life so difficult for their customers Business is business and if they cater for everything there will be less cars on the roads
Why don't they come out with a helmet that uses solar power. Also the back rack and other exposed areas of the bike fenders and handlebars could all be solar powered. I wonder what that could do for your battery? Would be cool to find out along with Regen, and a 2nd battery I bet it would be amazing! Then if you stop for lunch or something if they had a solar mat that fits inside backpack you could take it out and charge significantly on the battery
How come you went for a 20" instead of a 26" bike? You are a pretty tall guy. Is the 20" just more convenience and compact? Do you find it takes more effort to pedal a 20" bike (without PAS) vs a 26"?
20 inch is better for NYC since space is a problem here. Also I do more city riding. Only offroad the 26 inch tires will give you that benefit and extra comfort. I would recommend you to try POlarna GTS, it is cheaper and better bike power delivery and specs.
Hi, how easy is it to remove the display unit, I'm thinking if you have to leave it locked up outside a shop for a while. Also I'm 5ft 6" do you think I would be OK with the XL Enjoyed your video, thanks, Rob
I have one similar, big fat motorbike chain in a cover to prevent easy cutting and a good padlock are all you need, (mine wraps nicely around the seatpost when not used) nobody ever looked at the display, it doesn't stand out compared to the tyres which draw a bit of a fan club. If you don't like answering questions about your bike it's not for you :) .
Yamee has better components and the Ipas system that gives you more. Lectric is not bad but you will spend more $ repairing and replacing parts down the line. You get what you pay they say.
I just got XP. Customer service is good. Maybe I get this one next. I like bikes better than cars. I drive car once in 2 weeks. Waste of money and expensive insurance. I could call Uber much cheaper but how to take girl out? lol. Need to find ebike girl. Too many guys :( Come on ladies, bike is good exerciser.)
How much does it weigh? It's one thing to load it into a car or truck that's a few seconds but to climb a set or two of stairs to get to your second or third floor apartment is quite a difference. So to me weight is a key factor.
Hello, I ordered the same bike. Do you know if your motor number markings say “ yamee48v500”. Based on my research this would be a 500w motor not at 750w motor correct. I want to make sure these markings are the same. Thank you!!
@Electric Vehicles I just got my new XL and it has the same YAMEE48V500 stamp on the motor, though I ordered/paid for a 750w motor. I’d like to make sure the motor on my bike is 750w. Thanks!
@@jrt5678 same here. I'm not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe (in my Eddie Murphy voice). Also less than 48 hours and my odometer and speedometer stopped working. 🤔. I think this will be a return.
It's a 750w motor. At least that is what the display verifies when I am hill climbing. I've seen the watts reach as high as 999w. Peak power. My motor says the same. It's the serial number.
I don’t see a reason to get this over a Lectric XP. you can buy all of the upgrades this bike has (suspension fork, larger battery, etc.) for much less than the difference in cost between the two bikes.
Good review, I appreciate all the footage of you riding it and the detailed speed info. Am wondering about fit and leg extension. It looks you're able to get a full extension and thus pedal well. How many inches is your inseam, and if you don't mind posting it, your height and weight? Do you have the seatpost at its highest setting? Also, is full throttle avaliable at any PAS level or is it governed by that? Ie can I get full power throttle off the line even if bike is in PAS 1.
my height 6.3 and 205 lbs now. You can use just throttle or assist or both and that is the beauty of the bike. If you want to try it out and you are in NYC pm me.
I'm a OTR truck driver and need a folding e bike. Where in the world can I buy one that isn't mailed to an address? I NEED to buy one the old fashioned way. Tall order here in Phoenix. I'm here for a 36 hour reset then heading to Dallas where it looks likely that this issue will persist.
Quick question. Did you adjust those settings after you took this video of riding? Because you changed the wheel size, that would mean the speedometer will show a different speed. I got a yamee xl recently, and I'm wondering if mine is defective or your settings are just different. Mine will only go 22mph. In the process of figuring this problem out with yamee, but they are really slow with replies
I did not change the wheel size only power output. You should look into polarna gts video I posted. So much better. Improved components and better quality with more power.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace at 8:20 of the video, you adjusted the wheel size from 24 to 20. That will decrease your maximum speed from whatever you were getting to the real 22mph. If you check on Google maps you will be going the same speed no matter what wheel size you select, but on the display, it will show a higher number the bigger wheel size you select, even though the actual speed is the same. Test it out. What I'm trying to say is the bikes real maximum speed is nowhere near the advertised 27. It's 22. Which is upsetting. At least that's how it is on my yamee xl
@@Boba80223 the wheel size should be 20 inch. That is the true size of the wheel. Look at the polarna GTS bike and 500W Gfotce T42 bike with 30mph and higher.
Interesting video about the ebike, but why are you wearing a backpack when you have a bike rack? And with nothing on it. That's the whole reason I use them, at times along with panniers, so I can keep my body free and encumbered for better riding. And that's VERY IMPORTANT!!!
It is a cool bike, but I got it & main lever for folding was broke straight out of box new.. Iv contacted them but so far they haven't helped at all, & it's their screw up👋😒.
Amazon has a promotion now which surprisingly includes the black model and they deliver b4 seven days. Other companies will give you the opportunity to play a "fortune wheel" where you will only get a 5% discount out of 1700.00 (1615.00 net price) but they don't offer the black model. Amazon's discount is 150.00 and although the taxes will take most of that back, you won't be able to evade taxes anyway so, I say it's a win...
New to the channel brother, I just got my first electric scooter over a month ago and just now seeing E-bikes is they're anything you'd recommend for a 200 pounder and around 900 bucks?
Check out the Ecotric Rocket. You can find them on Amazon or directly from their web sight. They run from $900 to $1050. Ive been using mine to commute to work. Fun bike to ride. With adjusting the control board I can get up to 25 MPH and I weight 230LBS.
Build your own. Get a decent bike to start with, get a conversation kit and you'll get a lot more power for less money. They have videos on RUclips. It's not hard to do. You can do it in a few hours if you have all the stuff. Batteries are crazy priced, but you can get some on eBay or better yet just make your own. All e bike batteries are made with 18650 batteries just put together. You can solder the connections, but for best results I think you use a spot welder. I'm sure you can rent one. I know you can buy a spot welder for this job and all the 18650 batteries to make a good e by battery for less than the retail price of a battery. All these places charge 1000% markup on the batteries it's ridiculous
I got my new Paselec 500W 48V 10.4aH ebike for $850 from a local seller off Craigslist, you can try this option too or look at selling apps like Offerup to see if people selling ebikes locally.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace awesome thank you! Do you have any experience with that company/customer service and long term use ? I’m sure they’re Chinese based which makes me concerned about customer service in the long term.
I want to know the names of the ebikes that has 26" wheels that way i can put a Tannus Tire on the wheels so i don't get a flat and a ebike that folds up with two or 3 batteries. So i can have extra batteries that gives me the most range compared to them other batteries. And a push throttle or level so i don't have to peddle if i don't want ?
I recommend the 750S! It is better with more quality parts. The front fork etc...see the video I posted. I also have one 750S for sale. I bought 2 and it is too big for my friend. he wants a smaller wheel bike. Contact me if you are near NYC.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace I'm going back and forth between the Bear 750S and the xl, do you plan on posting a review on the bear 750s soon and give a comparison opinion? Thanks
The same frame but polarna has better quality components. I just received about bike today that will be better much better than polarna and yamee. Video coming in the following days.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace oh thanks for the feedback - i noticed the display looked exactly the same too. Your reivew of GDS was quite high, thus Polarna should be even better? Man I envy your "job".
Cool a Yamee XL that works. Mine starts bucking and becomes un rideable and there's zero support. Been over a year now. They say needs new motor. Still haven't been delivered a new motor..............
Yes but I recommend to check Polarna gts ebike. Has the same frame but better shocks, better suspension. Better quality motor and controller for lower price.
But how portable can a 55 lb e-bike be? Or, viewed differently, how good a shape do you need to be to move about comfortably a something weighing more the 25 kilos? As in putting in a car trunk, removing; carrying up a flight of stairs?
I would recommend Flex or Verreal but they are a bit more expensive. I placed several codes in the video description box and you can get a discount but it may be a bit more expensive than $500. Check them out. Good boards.

It's up to each driver and seemed to be about 50/50 and depending somewhat on the number of passengers onboard.)
That's sad how they make life so difficult for their customers
Business is business and if they cater for everything there will be less cars on the roads
I like this little beagle😅
As soon as I find an ebike I think I want I watch a video that makes me double guess myself … 🤦🏻♂️
Why don't they come out with a helmet that uses solar power. Also the back rack and other exposed areas of the bike fenders and handlebars could all be solar powered. I wonder what that could do for your battery? Would be cool to find out along with Regen, and a 2nd battery I bet it would be amazing! Then if you stop for lunch or something if they had a solar mat that fits inside backpack you could take it out and charge significantly on the battery
Nice review, no nonsense real info. Useful stuff.
Another company using Sondors design, very popular , but my Fold X gets 60+ miles per charge p.a.s., my buddy gets about 58 miles with his XS.
sondors is using other company design.
I think it would be nice to carry a 2nd battery just in case the fiat one runs out at a bad time like reserve on a fuel tank
Wow! Comes fully asssembled! Nice!
yes indeed.
and the worst, messiest packaging ever seen, they could throw old newspapers in the box
@@juri2001 the packaging 📦 is alright
@@juri2001 Who cares about the packaging? Only you.
This is the coolest electric bike I've seen so far.
Thx for sharing. Is the seat comfortable?
Yes
Hi I like the way you've describe this bike may I know how much is it exactly?
What kind of lock system or chain is recommended if you had to lock up this bike outside for a few minutes in nyc?
How come you went for a 20" instead of a 26" bike? You are a pretty tall guy. Is the 20" just more convenience and compact? Do you find it takes more effort to pedal a 20" bike (without PAS) vs a 26"?
20 inch is better for NYC since space is a problem here. Also I do more city riding. Only offroad the 26 inch tires will give you that benefit and extra comfort. I would recommend you to try POlarna GTS, it is cheaper and better bike power delivery and specs.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace thank you so much for the reply. And I appreciate your videos.
@@duMaurier15 my pleasure.
Hello! The E-bike link seems to have expired or it's no longer available. Do you have any other links that you would be able to buy the bike from?
This seems much more reasonably priced than the Harley Davison E bikes
and the specs are similar. I rather own this bike.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace what’s the max speed?
A guy who lives nearby has only has his for 6 months and in great condition and only wants $1200 do I scoop?
good bike and thats a great deal
what is the top speed with throttle only?
ruclips.net/user/shortsjn_3qhFeIE8?feature=share
25MPH
Hi, how easy is it to remove the display unit, I'm thinking if you have to leave it locked up outside a shop for a while. Also I'm 5ft 6" do you think I would be OK with the XL
Enjoyed your video, thanks, Rob
Size will fit well. I'm 6.3" removing the display is not difficult.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace 👍
I have one similar, big fat motorbike chain in a cover to prevent easy cutting and a good padlock are all you need, (mine wraps nicely around the seatpost when not used) nobody ever looked at the display, it doesn't stand out compared to the tyres which draw a bit of a fan club. If you don't like answering questions about your bike it's not for you :) .
is there a class 3 ebike that's pretty much just like this? thank you for this video :)
For $899 the lectric xp can not be beat!! 28mph and all this one 2000
Yamee has better components and the Ipas system that gives you more. Lectric is not bad but you will spend more $ repairing and replacing parts down the line. You get what you pay they say.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace then how much is this bike ?
I just got XP. Customer service is good. Maybe I get this one next. I like bikes better than cars. I drive car once in 2 weeks. Waste of money and expensive insurance. I could call Uber much cheaper but how to take girl out? lol. Need to find ebike girl. Too many guys :( Come on ladies, bike is good exerciser.)
@@blueeyedsoulman I like your approach! Can I get one of those girls too?
@@ElectricVehicleSpace I think we have to convert them. Get them out of cars. Live life outside more.
Would be nice if you gave us the price and options
Do you think this bike is the most powerful, and the best foldable e-bike that you have reviewed so far?
himibike and Polarna GTS were the most powerful bike I have tried. Take a look at those videos.
Nice bike and where you get the helmet from?
What is the maximum load capacity? Is this good a ebike for big guys?
That’s what I need to know also.
Hello how much it cost you I love it
How much does it weigh? It's one thing to load it into a car or truck that's a few seconds but to climb a set or two of stairs to get to your second or third floor apartment is quite a difference. So to me weight is a key factor.
Have you looked online?
Price, range, weight, charge time, features. Seems price is a secret on most reviews??
What brand is your hemlet ? Thanks
I’m more interested to know about ur helmet what is it please?
i would not recommend this helmet. The visor holder is not working properly and the company never replied to my messages.
GREAT REVIEW!!!!!⭐️
I will post in several days better option ebike and cheaper. Stay tuned.

How easy was this bike to pedal with no power assist?
Looks fast great review im from nyc it seems good commuter eletric bike
Yes it is and if you use the code I added in the description you will get $140 discount. Its the perfect bike for NYC
@@ElectricVehicleSpace 180$
@@ElectricVehicleSpace Is it fit kryptonite lock safe
Any regenerative braking? Can the battery be taken out for charging?
It shows in the video
Hello, I ordered the same bike. Do you know if your motor number markings say “ yamee48v500”. Based on my research this would be a 500w motor not at 750w motor correct. I want to make sure these markings are the same. Thank you!!
They have 500w and 750w options.
@Electric Vehicles I just got my new XL and it has the same YAMEE48V500 stamp on the motor, though I ordered/paid for a 750w motor. I’d like to make sure the motor on my bike is 750w. Thanks!
I also ordered the 750w and my motor says 48v500 as well. I sent an email and was told it's the serial number. Seems strange.
@@jrt5678 same here. I'm not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe (in my Eddie Murphy voice). Also less than 48 hours and my odometer and speedometer stopped working. 🤔. I think this will be a return.
It's a 750w motor. At least that is what the display verifies when I am hill climbing. I've seen the watts reach as high as 999w. Peak power. My motor says the same. It's the serial number.
I don’t see a reason to get this over a Lectric XP. you can buy all of the upgrades this bike has (suspension fork, larger battery, etc.) for much less than the difference in cost between the two bikes.
How is that the battery alone probably $600 Plus the electric it’s only a 500 W motor with manual brakes I believe with smaller rotors
@@dominica2765 the lectric has an 800w motor. 500w nominal. This is way more expensive. Compared to the new XP 2.0, it’s an even worse value lol
I don’t see see an le trick Is that bike on their website or am I missing something thank you
That’s a 500 W motor 800 watch peak the battery small as hell it’s got smaller rotors on it you can’t even compare the two bikes I’m sorry
@@dominica2765 autocorrect. I fixed it.
Good review, I appreciate all the footage of you riding it and the detailed speed info. Am wondering about fit and leg extension. It looks you're able to get a full extension and thus pedal well. How many inches is your inseam, and if you don't mind posting it, your height and weight? Do you have the seatpost at its highest setting?
Also, is full throttle avaliable at any PAS level or is it governed by that? Ie can I get full power throttle off the line even if bike is in PAS 1.
my height 6.3 and 205 lbs now. You can use just throttle or assist or both and that is the beauty of the bike. If you want to try it out and you are in NYC pm me.
This ebike has the very display and electrical setup as the Himiway.
I'm a OTR truck driver and need a folding e bike. Where in the world can I buy one that isn't mailed to an address? I NEED to buy one the old fashioned way. Tall order here in Phoenix. I'm here for a 36 hour reset then heading to Dallas where it looks likely that this issue will persist.
Quick question. Did you adjust those settings after you took this video of riding? Because you changed the wheel size, that would mean the speedometer will show a different speed. I got a yamee xl recently, and I'm wondering if mine is defective or your settings are just different. Mine will only go 22mph. In the process of figuring this problem out with yamee, but they are really slow with replies
I did not change the wheel size only power output. You should look into polarna gts video I posted. So much better. Improved components and better quality with more power.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace at 8:20 of the video, you adjusted the wheel size from 24 to 20. That will decrease your maximum speed from whatever you were getting to the real 22mph. If you check on Google maps you will be going the same speed no matter what wheel size you select, but on the display, it will show a higher number the bigger wheel size you select, even though the actual speed is the same. Test it out. What I'm trying to say is the bikes real maximum speed is nowhere near the advertised 27. It's 22. Which is upsetting. At least that's how it is on my yamee xl
@@Boba80223 the wheel size should be 20 inch. That is the true size of the wheel. Look at the polarna GTS bike and 500W Gfotce T42 bike with 30mph and higher.
Interesting video about the ebike, but why are you wearing a backpack when you have a bike rack? And with nothing on it.
That's the whole reason I use them, at times along with panniers, so I can keep my body free and encumbered for better riding.
And that's
VERY IMPORTANT!!!
I keep my camera gear there and the backpack is so comfortable that I often forget that it is on me.
Looks great. When are they available in the UK, please?
Check polarna gts review its the same frame with better motor and controller. More power and less $$$
It is a cool bike, but I got it & main lever for folding was broke straight out of box new.. Iv contacted them but so far they haven't helped at all, & it's their screw up👋😒.
Hey i live in nyc also with a small apartment how long did the bike to ship to you
Amazon has a promotion now which surprisingly includes the black model and they deliver b4 seven days. Other companies will give you the opportunity to play a "fortune wheel" where you will only get a 5% discount out of 1700.00 (1615.00 net price) but they don't offer the black model. Amazon's discount is 150.00 and although the taxes will take most of that back, you won't be able to evade taxes anyway so, I say it's a win...
New to the channel brother, I just got my first electric scooter over a month ago and just now seeing E-bikes is they're anything you'd recommend for a 200 pounder and around 900 bucks?
Check out the Ecotric Rocket. You can find them on Amazon or directly from their web sight. They run from $900 to $1050. Ive been using mine to commute to work. Fun bike to ride. With adjusting the control board I can get up to 25 MPH and I weight 230LBS.
Build your own. Get a decent bike to start with, get a conversation kit and you'll get a lot more power for less money. They have videos on RUclips. It's not hard to do. You can do it in a few hours if you have all the stuff. Batteries are crazy priced, but you can get some on eBay or better yet just make your own. All e bike batteries are made with 18650 batteries just put together. You can solder the connections, but for best results I think you use a spot welder. I'm sure you can rent one. I know you can buy a spot welder for this job and all the 18650 batteries to make a good e by battery for less than the retail price of a battery. All these places charge 1000% markup on the batteries it's ridiculous
I got my new Paselec 500W 48V 10.4aH ebike for $850 from a local seller off Craigslist, you can try this option too or look at selling apps like Offerup to see if people selling ebikes locally.
@@Vex916T true, but many are also stolen. LoL
Is there a reason the description link for the home goes to the polarna site?
Yes better bike and better performance for lower price. 100 % recommended
@@ElectricVehicleSpace awesome thank you! Do you have any experience with that company/customer service and long term use ? I’m sure they’re Chinese based which makes me concerned about customer service in the long term.
How much? And I'm carlo from Republic of the Philippines.
Cooler weather gives better battery life .
.. Amazing New York with the snow ..😉
that is why I bought this bike.
Hi man, absolutely fantastic e-bike, that's just what I'm looking for. Do you know if there is a Rattan dealer in Italy?
Check the review of 750s I did. Even better bike. I don't know about Italy....sorry
I want to know the names of the ebikes that has 26" wheels that way i can put a Tannus Tire on the wheels so i don't get a flat and a ebike that folds up with two or 3 batteries. So i can have extra batteries that gives me the most range compared to them other batteries. And a push throttle or level so i don't have to peddle if i don't want ?
Hi brother.. I'm interested in this Yamee Xl bike.. is it worth the Price? Also, where is a legitimate place to purchase this from?
I recommend the 750S! It is better with more quality parts. The front fork etc...see the video I posted. I also have one 750S for sale. I bought 2 and it is too big for my friend. he wants a smaller wheel bike. Contact me if you are near NYC.
Can you compare this to the Lectric 2.0?
I like this very cool 🙏🤝
Bro how is this bike on a long run do you still have it ? I have lectric xp, want something better now .
The bile is great. Now I am testing the 750S bear. Dual suspension is nice.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace I'm going back and forth between the Bear 750S and the xl, do you plan on posting a review on the bear 750s soon and give a comparison opinion? Thanks
Looks like Yamee XL and GDS and Polarna M6 are the same e-bike - yes / no?
The same frame but polarna has better quality components. I just received about bike today that will be better much better than polarna and yamee. Video coming in the following days.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace oh thanks for the feedback - i noticed the display looked exactly the same too. Your reivew of GDS was quite high, thus Polarna should be even better? Man I envy your "job".
@@jacksonj3082 yes polarna is better but this new upcoming bike may hold even higher edge. Super excited to share the new bike review soon.
Am i able to get this bike in the UK or shipped from the US? I'm struggling to find a UK supplier, thanks 👍
check polarna gts video. Better bike cheaper and they may deliver to UK.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace I will check it out cheers👍
Where did you purchase the helmet?
What would you pay for a used one with two extra batteries?
I could tell you to get the polarna m4 m5 or m6.
Looks good, but does it have rear suspension?
The new review I posted of fat bear tire 750S does. It's better bike....check it out.
How much can it hold with like weight limit so a person and cargo
Cool a Yamee XL that works. Mine starts bucking and becomes un rideable and there's zero support. Been over a year now. They say needs new motor. Still haven't been delivered a new motor..............
Better polarna gts and good support. Link on the polarna video review.
Will it fit in a trunk of a sedan?
Nice video btw.
Yes but I recommend to check Polarna gts ebike. Has the same frame but better shocks, better suspension. Better quality motor and controller for lower price.
I would like to get one of these with mag wheels please tell me there is a option to get mag wheels?
if i need only 20 mph what's the range i would get with the battery? Assuming it has a regenerative battery system
if you only rider at 20 mph than you will get more range.
what’s the difference between yamee and rattan?
From what I read they are the same company. Yameee is just like the premium version
I have 750 watt bike that's some really good rang I guess you didn't hit a bunch of hills in this ride.
I had a bunch but I pedaled through.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace yea good job 💯
But how portable can a 55 lb e-bike be?
Or, viewed differently, how good a shape do you need to be to move about comfortably a something weighing more the 25 kilos? As in putting in a car trunk, removing; carrying up a flight of stairs?
the bike is lighter than that
6 foot rule makes it harder to ask for help :(
This bike weighs 77 pounds. Super heavy. Max throttle speed is only 25mph in real time is 22mph according to police radar.
what is tweneeeeenaaas an hour ?
Off topic I know but what board would you recommend in the $500 range ?
Thanks
I would recommend Flex or Verreal but they are a bit more expensive. I placed several codes in the video description box and you can get a discount but it may be a bit more expensive than $500. Check them out. Good boards.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace Thanks I really appreciate it.
Meepo.
