Yeah for sure do with 16 inch and good tire but also tell your buddy putting his feet down is only for balance he keeps taking his weight off bike and that doesn't help keep as much weight pushing into foot pegs. You can also do fast burst weight down then de weight the bike to get first 2-3 feet then smooth on throttle with to continue traction.. but with tires like that it's no surprise and dry ground you were all over the place. Last would be you are sitting down to much going downhill and you have lazy foot syndrome. :) good video showing what a stock bike can do.. What was the final range you did ? maybe I missed that
Sheeshhhh you drove this bike like a man. Put my riding skills to shame. I have an MX4 put around 10 thousand into it. It has become my prized possession.
i have the sotion motor, Nucular P24F Controller, 72 volt battery on my MX3. I feel ripped off seeing I had to pay so much for what now can be obtained on stock units.
@@shockadellick do you think that would be a good time to pull the trigger on buying one? I am hoping to get one within the next year, but it seems like they’re always making improvements every year and I would hate to buy this one within a year and then they come out with something even better!
@@brennerborec3422i don’t know if they’re ever would be a good time. every few months they come out with a new model with better technology. the eride pro ss just came out like 7 months ago and blew every bike out of the water. now the mx5 is coming out with even better performance
Cool video. Would be sick if you uploaded in 4k tho even if the footage is 1080, just because the compression is rough on youtube's "1080" mode during fast moving sections.
@@LydgeBell you have the right idea on going to the 16” it opens up better tire sizes. The front can handle a bigger size as well since they widened the forks. Great video!
hey fam, those are MTB forks therefore you have preload on the left side (tighten or lose the spring for it to be stiffer or not) right side is rebound (how quickly the forks go back to the zero position) maybe that helps.
@@LydgeBellgood trails .If you don't know about Scottish trails we have some amazing tracks,some good farmers that let us use electric bikes. ie Surron first built moto x ebike that I'm a Talaria MX5 owner now.But ridden since 15ish I'm nearly 55 so 40 years on dirt tracks,moto x tracks,woods hills&more
@@stephenmccabe9941 when I can absolutely! GoPro doesn’t do a good job showing how steep this hill is which is why I am pushing with the feet. The stock tire isn’t helping either😂
Hi My name is Christopher and my last name is Gomez-Gomez, it’s nice to meet you! I’m from Seattle, Washington, United States of America 🇺🇸! Where are you from?
Should we try climbing the hill again? Comment below
Try a different rear tire and do it again!
@@josephbicking23I’m hoping they come out with a 16” rear for the new mx5

@@dans8149appreciate the tips, and unsure what our final mileage was, I will check later today
yes for sure with a new rear tire setup
Best mx5 test so far
I’ll tell you one thing, you sure as shit tested the durability. 😂 Great job with the riding and keep us updated on how the bike treats you.
😂Gave it a good first run. Appreciate the watch and will do!
Sick dudes! Electric is getting impressive!
Honestly for the price, thing thing ripped!
Great video bro
Definitely making me want an electric bike!!
This is definitely a great option
Content is fire 🔥
Thank you 🤙 More coming
Need to disconnect the brake sensors and utilize your breaking regeneration on the downhill
came here to say this

I appreciate it man! Super excited to build this thing, definitely more to come👍
@@shockadellickIt’s pretty impressive what the stock will do! Excited to mod it

Dope video bro
Thank you 🤙
You were absolutely ripping it on that vertical section 😂
I was gassed at the top LOL
Seems these bikes have no throttle control - on/off? Your backyard you maintain it.

Agreed this will be fixed next upload
Awesome vid thanks, what was the final range you achieved?
23 miles
They better hire you guys for durability testing
Got mine last week things so sick
You can look at Tusk tires for e-bikes if you are not changing the wheel size.
I want to do a 16” rear as soon as one comes out! Tires would make a huge difference
@@LydgeBell you have the right idea on going to the 16” it opens up better tire sizes. The front can handle a bigger size as well since they widened the forks. Great video!
@@LydgeBell look at warp 9 for the wheel
good stuff man
Please compare with the new e rides and atlis if you can would be a great real deal experience
if you want to keep the oem rear wheel though get a set of TUSK GROUNDWIREs
Ultimately want a 16” rear but haven’t seen anything available yet for this bike

Hmm he was in eco and used more battery towards the beginning and got stuck on wait for 10 min did you figure out the wait situation
Just had to hit the start button
May want to unplug the brake sensors
Yes agreed that was causing some issues for sure
Is that Domerie peak? Did you use regen on the downhills?
So stoked for mine to get here. How long was your shipping time?
You are going to love it. And a couple weeks
I should buy one
Are you guys in the PNW?
does he know that hyper mode on it exists?
I’m exhausted, just watching this
oh boy.
O-kay.
Why were u driving in sport the whole time instead of hyper?
Why have they not put a transmission on these bikes? Would it not make sense? If not, how could it not make sense?
"where you at? 71%" the guy that was in eco mode "64%" lol
do you think the mx4 has better range?
@@samburns6405 I think it would be very comparable
Extreme durability test? You brutalized it out of the box!
Round 2 coming up
How many miles did you end up doing? We’re you on full battery?
Full battery and unsure, will check later today!
23 miles
Nice!!! What battery percentage was it after 23 miles
@@lifewithjlu 8 percent left👍
I hope the aliens will retun them safely in time for Haloween.
I'd still run an air filter, but on my helmet.
Is this comfortable for an adult! ?
Damn this thing rip for sure 🔥🔥🔥
We love them so far🤙
Id recommend a 16inch rear wheel and tire
also you will use alot less battery because you will have traction
100% agree just waiting for something to become available
Is anyone knows if I can buy one of this in Europe?
you should really record in 4k, any movement in the video looks like crap
Agreed! Will upload in higher quality next video

A gas powered bike would have made it up that hill much easier because of the torque curve.
Dónde la venden en México?
When is #2????
@@habiba3255 tonight 👍
Try keeping your feet on the pegs an stand up more. Also this uphill sitting and unloading the bike doesnt help with traction.
Dude do you ever put your feet on the pegs looks like you are looking to break your foot keep your feet on the pegs save your ass some pain

😂 well done
you need tires atleast bro the stock tires are TERRIBLE. junk throw them away and make sure the brakes are bed in
Yeah most issues climbing aren't due to a lack of power cause they have so much torque. It's just shit traction from the stock tires
