As a former dirt bike, bicycle and current RC car person, I gotta' say this product is amazing. My Red Promoto-MX arrives in 5 days. It was a pre-order I jumped on right after Big Squid RC posted the update these bikes were released. I've owned a few RC bikes in the past. This is massively better than any of them. I am looking forward to demonstrating the rider figure on my bike isn't brave. He's stupid. OMG this is going to be so fun. Losi may have released the equivalent of the short course truck in terms of how I believe this model with change the RC surface vehicle industry forever. I am saying I think this model may turn out to be as big a deal in RC history as the 1984 Team Associated RC10. Really amazing what they have done here, and it is worth the price no question.
@@Lucas.stalcup The video was not on Big Squid. It was the announcement of the Promoto's launch that had me searching RUclips for more information. That's how I found the video. Clearly, my comment was unclear.
@@RMH386 Another great question. I ordered a red bike, a battery and a charging cable from A main. The shipping notice in 5 days turned out to be only for the battery and charge cable. I think the release date for the bike is June 30th. We will see when it arrives.
Excellent video! May I add that IF your installing any seals that are either cleaned up or new, add a little silicone oil to the shafts and seals so you don't damage the inner seal diameters installing them dry. They are very fragile and score/tear/damage incredibly easily. Also avoid any sharp edged tool to remove your seals if their going to be reused. A dull ended smooth tool is more helpful in removal reusing seals. Avoid scratching the aluminum seal bores during removal as a scratch may damage the forks ability to seal properly.
What a nice Model! It looks so well ingeneered and the support wirh this Videos is incredible! It took a long time for MTB fork manufacturer to put out service videos like this. The moore i see about this Model the price gets more and more reasonable. Thanks for your effort!❤👍👏
I might try lowering the forks to help with the flat corners plus I think it also help with the small bumps to not front flip. I think the front end is racked out too much. The forks don’t really get a chance to move freely.
Need Mitch at Pro Circuit to start doing suspension mods for the bike. Pro Circuits involvment in more than just name would only be a good thing for advancement and legitimacy.
So when installing the "star spacer" in the fork shock. The one that sits on top of the piston "with 3 weep holes"... which direction do you install the star spacer?, with the dimple on top? Or do you put the dimple side down towards the piston?. I think that makes sense. Or is there not spoze to have the dimple on it? looks like it spoze to be there?
I love my new losi promoto but.. ran 4 lipos already and my front forks have slop. Feels like the lower bushings are already worn out or something is damaged. I'm going to pull them apart and inspect tonight. Do you have an idea if that is the issue, thanks ..love the bike I just might have jumped and crashed too hard.. anyone else have this issue?
this model is just beyond believe

How are you getting it in 5 days? When does it actually release???

This thing is not just an RC bike its a learning tool......brilliant!!
You can definitely see some of the MX and MTB fork DNA in this one.

No we need KYB to come out with forks for this and a rear shock. Best in the business.
very nice just bought mine 😊😊😊😊
Awesome

Great video and thanks! I want that electric driver. Link?
I hope a Dragbike is in the future
I’m still waiting on mine from horizon hobby. WTH! How do I not have it yet?
What if you ghost ride it with no rider?

Great video

I'm curious as to why you guys didn't make the fork tube the damper proper and did this cartridge setup.
Lower CG?
What is that one screw into the chassis side plates
here 1 year later, ran the Promoto today myself bro!! was Sick!!
KYB "A kit" when?
The pilot's navel is like a bottle for babies hahahahaha😂😂
We need piggybag shocks
Are we going to get an Orange KTM bike?
Yeah, but it will have air forks and won't go through whoops.
@@MX304and be triple priced
They sell orange plastics for it. And yellow and black and white
THE BATTERY POSITIVE SIDE IS EXPOSED A BIT NEAR THE PLUG INTO THE BIKE CONNECTOR....😯😯
Poor bleed process. Didnt bleed air from the piston first.
