This thing dodges all the laws and I'm a big fan. Today I am blown away by the Async A1 Pro version electric Bike - It's basically a one time purchase electric motorcycle, Sure, just a touch slower than a motorcycle. But same size, ride quality, still pretty quick, good battery life. Can't really ask for a cheaper, better option than this! Looks killer too, and gets more attention than a motorcycle. this thing is cheap for the build and specs.

Aye, I got to test ride one of these on electrify expo while I was there presenting for my company. Pretty fun. The seat was surprisingly comfortable. It’s also super nimble. Despite how heavy it was and how big the wheels were you could really just throw this thing around and really lean into the turns. Super fun to ride.
Appreciate it! Glad you got a ride in!
Lol the intro, glad to see you reviewed this ebike. Like seeing different style ebikes.
I’m glad you got a non prototype. I never got to ride the orange one I was sent from them. It was defective. Looks like they updated the suspension and changed the fenders as well.
Yep. They did. Haha
How was it Defective?
dang this video slaps way harder than I remember
You are hilarious dang it
Especially if you got a ebike too 😃
You should do a beachman 64 review PLEASE I NEED A REVIEW I WANNA KNOW!!!!
HEY I SAW YOU PURCHASED CHINA ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLES BEFORE I PURCHASED ONE AND THE CHP AND DMV SAYS THE INPSECTION IS ALL GOOD EXEPT FEDERAL LABEL THE MANUFACTURE WONT HELP ME SAYS THEY NO HAVE IT WHAT CAN I DO CAN YOU TELL ME HOW YOU REGISTERED IT? I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WE PAY SO MUCH MONEY FOR THIS BIKE BUT CANT REGISTER WITHOUT FEDERAL LABEL CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME
@@vea1sven162they can use thy Vin # or any specific numerical code found on it, people do it with ebikes all the time
I also test rode the Async at the NYC expo. Very impressed. Probably the best class 3 moped style ebike on the market.
is the expo over???? argh
@@RichKiamco Yes, it was just for the weekend.
Need to get my hands on one of those square E-bikes. 😎
Been waiting for you to finally talk about this one, as much as it's been in the background. Absolutely one of the coolest looking bikes you had on the channel, Is it pricey? Sh'yeah it is but it's all aluminum and nicely designed and at 35 miles of range? It's a shame I'm broke.
Haha!
Don’t worry. This bike is broker then you
Cool review brother - thanks
now that’s a sick looking ass bike straight from the future🔥💯
Just bought one can’t wait till it comes in so I can ride it everywhere seems so cool and fun thanks for uploading your opinion on the bike
I love you mentioning at 5:30 "unless you wanna get some bike from China and wait 2 months and get scammed or whatever" when that is literally what this is..
You know what I meant
Very cool George Jetson looking bike
All hail the king 👑 This review definitely slaps!
Hahaha thanks for hooking me up for it! One of my new favorite bikes 🤘🏼
This e-bike has the most “Hyundai Ionic 5” vibes in terms of style. Has the technology of a “Tesla Plaid”, and the range of a “Lucid Air”. All that seems pretty good value to me!
I’m going to get an ERIDEPRO SS
Nice dude!!
@@TheInja thanks bro yeah!!!!! It looks awesome!!!! Surronster just uploaded a review of it and it kicks surrons ass
Patiently waiting for this RUclips channel to officially change its name to King of the Nerds.
I love your sense of humor with these videos and it's fun to see the latest ebike I can't afford. Watching now but seems like a nice beefy bike for the money.
Always a pleasure to have you 💯 nice bike for sure!
There's no way I would personally pay that for an ebike when I can buy a Honda grom for around the same money & can still have as mich fun
Facts
true, you gotta get a license though, but then again, the fun
You can't buy a new Honda Grom for 2500
@@JudeTheRUclipsPoopersubscribeUS prices you can but canada is like 5 grand
@@jacobdaley3888 a used one here in the UK is like £2500-3000 depending on what year it is. Good thing about groms is that you barely see one with a lot of miles on them so can get a good price. I'd totally ride one if I didn't look like an idiot on them at 6 foot 2
so if anyone else is scrolling through the comments looking like I am..... The top speed is 35 miles an hour with
"off-road mode" so he tested it going full speed. He got 36 miles of range going 35HR not to bad for that little bike!!!!
*big bike haha
Looks like an interesting mod platform, a 60v or 72v build would make for a sick urban scrambler
Oh for sure. Might be fun to upgrade it
Great review. The Solar E-Clipse Electric Motorcycle 72V $5,995.99 offers 60MPH 70 miles range 2-3 hrs charging time.
I have a 2020 Ecotric Rocket with a geared 500 watt rear hub and whatever tf controller it came with. After 2 yrs i decided to mod it by replacing the motor with an eBikeling 1200 watt rear direct drive hub, 52V 20 ah battery, running off a Grin Technologies Phaserunner V6. Definitely had to switch to hydraulic disc brakes. I just ordered a "2nd Amendment vinyl wrap and should be dragging deer out the woods by opening day.
If they offered the A1 in the orange color of the Pro, I'd have bought at least 1 already.
They do, I ordered one Saturday.
Great vid. Love the bike. With a wedding coming up sadly it’s out of my price range. Hopefully after my wedding I’ll snag one
Congrats on the wedding! Hope to see you on an A1 down the line
Looks cool. Wow your neighbors sure throw out alot of garbage, you can furnish a house just by doing a single lap around the block!
Looks pretty good.
Love this bike! Had a chance to ride at expo.. but not at full speed
The one I rode at the NYC Expo was set to off-road mode. :)
I am the king nerd. Relinquish the title. 🤓
Hahahaha
I think he might have a point... Maybe a death match.
Hey Inja I have a brand new Talaria XXX If you were interested in using it for a day to review. Also I live down the street from you
The sales would spike if they would turned down the branding to about 10%.
I don't want to pay that much, and then have to figure out how to remove most of it.
I love this mobile post 📫 box ,lights are sick ❤😮🤠🤟
superb initiative!!!
Fantastic review thanks for it
You can just walk up to it and pull the battery out ? That would be a real world deal breaker lol for me can you charge the battery outside the bike?
Dengfu E55 and Frey Beast, give the beast to Curt after the review so he never skips leg day again!
Hahaha!
You put the front mud guard opersite to where it should be.
Love everything about it except the seat
What tire upgrade would you recommend for this bike for strictly road use? I'm thinking cst big boat or scouts
NOW, that is a cool looking bike!!
Sure is!!
These things are sick!
@GATER311 Are you just lurking on RUclips all day trolling? lol get a life
6’3 180lbs I would double the miles, sweet bike.
Fantastique sir i like your video❤❤❤#@ivoiry coast ,contry of DiDier Drogba (player of Chelsea)❤❤❤
Pureile review. Would have liked to have seen how the rear suspension works. The angularity could cause long-term reliability issues.
I bounced on it near the end of the video for you, but it's hidden in the frame so 🤷🏽♀️
@@TheInja Doing a teardown would be very interesting. Can you take the side cover off? Thanks.
I meant to ask what did you mean by "one time purchase" in the title. Thanks
@@highwaymen1237 like you aren't paying yearly or monthly for insurance and registration.purchase once and that's all the money you have to spend
I understand now. I thought it might mean that if you bought this bike you would be satisfied and not need to upgrade to another bike in the near future. Thanks. @@TheInja
Gotta watch a commercial to watch this commercial. Nice
Lol
Why not the red hotrod async bike you have that’s 1 of one that paint job you still have that one ?
was way cooler looking BEFORE the riser handlebars were put on.... lol
They're is one little fender piece missing on the back tire did you put that piece on?
You're missing front half of rear fender.
See two screws on top of swingarm.
Yeah I mean I wasn't even sure if I wanted to put the fenders on so 🤷🏽♀️ haha.
R6? Too bad. I was gonna send you my expired tag. njaplz
Can you upgrade it to make it go faster or longer range?
Just thinking is it any good off road ? Would like one for forest service roads when camping.
Definitely geared for on-roar, but it'll do all-terrain alright I think!
This think is like a moped, but you can fill up at a gas station and can't wake up the whole neighborhood.
13:17 that's what she said 😂
I think it's much too slow to be considered a "motorcycle" but for an e-bike? it seems to be one of the best in that class with great features at a very competitive price.
In order to be an ebike it has to cap at 28mph up to 750watt motor. Or can be a loophole bike with offroad use and road use mode. Basicly offroad will unlock the speed while road will cap at 28mph.
There is an electric moped class and electric motorcycle class. Each has a license to use while e-bikes requires note. Just because you ride a sur ron doesn't mean its street legal.
That battery ... holy... @#$@#$ it's HUGE!!! 🤯🔋
the seat looks like it would be very uncomfortable after only a short amount of time
That looks good
The seat is my big question. Is it a remotely comfortable seat, esp on longer rides? Might just be me but the seat looks a bit sketchy
That seat looks miserable lol
Not as bad as you'd think. Normal bicycle seats are much worse
I took a long hard look at this, and for $2,000 less got all the same specs and performance from an ActBest Pioneer.
Were you able to connect to the app?
Great looking e-bike, especially the animated tail light. Our streets are 30-45, though.
If it can't do 35, how about not doing the "motorcycle" clickbait? I'll watch your videos w/better titles or not, so keep on' rolling and how about more builds with sources we can buy components from?
Answer: 10:32
Not that you’re terribly likely to get called on it by a cop, but technically the bike is not street legal while in off-road mode (in most states) because in off road mode it is no longer a class 2 or class 3 ebike.
That said, you’re way way less likely to get called on it riding this in off road mode as opposed to say a Surron, as this plausibly looks like a normal bicycle.
Why are they 3k plus 9 months later?
I love the look!
Yeah looks real good!! 🔥
What stops someone from stealing the battery pack? Is it locked somehow? Great video as always.
Yes - locked with a physical key as well as a digital one 🔐
Can you check out the ridstar q20
i need that to go atleast 50 mph for me to get one, the speed limit of the road outside my subdivision is 50 mph
That's called a motorcycle. Talaria sting R can go about 50mph stock.
When the belt breaks, can you get parts for it ?
Yes!
Seat doesn't look very comfortable lol?
Are you from Fresno? What trails are you riding? Looks nice im from fresno
Yep!
@@TheInja what trail are those?
This thing is cool but I’m not sure where it fits in as it’s not really an ebike. So, some idiots will take this on pedestrian paths and rail trails and endanger everyone, and other idiots will take this out in traffic and endanger themselves because it doesn’t really go fast enough. I know everyone hates regulations but it feels like there need to be clearer definitions in the ebike sector.
But it goes 35mph, it can keep up with traffic
Why this when there is the Honda Grom minimito?
license, registration, insurance mostly
It's too bad they didn't put some cool mag wheels on this.
The Inja Does It Again!!!!! I`m So Jealous Great Bike, Awesome Review!
Cracking bike
I like this bike it looks cool, and it's almost as smooth as you, so yeah, I think it is worth the money, and there are other bikes with 20x4.0 wheels that cast more whitch aren't as good on paper ?
Clovis, Ca eh?
You freaking know it!
Thank you
Does this have turn signals?
No. No mirrors either.
this bike is nice but need update motor
Awesome 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It doesn’t look like the rear fender is in the right place and will allow water to hit your back…
Sent you an email, are you going to sell the bike or keep it?
Its such a cool looking bike. Very futuristic. But I feel like that seat would make your butthole numb after a couple of hours.
Any bike seat would, even a Cloud9, but the funny thing is the 'uncomfortable' looking seats on ebikes seem to be the most comfy ironically.
Hahaha
Not as bad as you'd expect!
The seat is surprisingly comfortable.
Slow down there cowboy. I purchased an A1 in June. It was supposed to arrive in the second week of July. I just got it a couple days ago. Ok fine. They were on a ship and stuck in LA waiting to unload. And then clear customs. So It finally found its way to my house in the North East. So I opened the box excited AF about finally getting my A1 e-bike. First thing I noticed was 4 fairly big scratches on the frame and forks and a big scratch on the bars that the rear tire is mounted. But the biggest problem was the front brake disc was bent. Unfortunately I had to come up here to Canada for almost a week. So I wrote Asnyc and asked them to send me a new front brake disk. Shouldn’t be a problem right? They know I bought the bike from them and they only make one bike. Send me a disk and when I get home I could put it on and go riding. But no. I have to wait until I get home so I can take pictures of it send the pictures in and then I guess they determine if I’m lying and crashed the bike. It has never even left my garage. But for some reason they won’t send a disk. Anyway I get back to the North East on Tuesday. Hopefully they will grudgingly send a brake disk. I have a funny feeling it’s not gonna go well. I will update in a few days.
Let me know how it goes.
@@TheInja I will. Should have an update around Wednesday
@GATER311 I have real motorcycles! Haha
@GATER311 just bought a Yamaha R6, Yamaha FZ6 was my first bike on the channel, custom 1989 Honda CX500, Ducati, Honda CB750 cafe conversion, electric sportbike from China we beefed up, 125cc from Amazon, and now a Yamaha R6....is that enough real bike for you??
So sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience, Keith! We have received your ticket and are processing your front brake disc :)
It doesn't matter if you can limit can power to it a motor over 750 watts isn't legal to ride on the road. You may get away with it till the cops in your city learn the e bike laws.
What are the Pedals for?
"look officer it's a bicycle I'm not riding illegally!"
@@JudeTheRUclipsPoopersubscribe lol* are u kidding me? thats all? But okay i know one guy in germany, who do it the same way---
That seat looks uber uncomfortable
It's actually surprisingly not as bad as you'd expect! Haha
The pre-producrion model of this same bike the seat was a lot harder.
13:20-25 ….. pause !!!!! 🤦🏿♂️
We're the same height and I'm 10 pounds heavier. I'm Subscribing now😂
Wired freedom blows that bike out of the water for $2000. 60v is so much better than 48v. That bike looks like an abomination that will both get you laughed at and pulled over.
It's really not that bad actually
After this guy not mentioning that ridiculous excuse for a seat in his review I no longer trust his opinion about anyting. There's no way he didn't notice how uncomfortable it was to ride on an aluminum tube with a piece of fabric the glued to it😂
I'm how heavy😊
It may be dumb to ask . by any chance you can give or sell me the bike but lower ?
already sold, check the website for what I still have www.TheInja.com
Feels weird advertising through comments (especially someone else's comments) so sorry in advance if I shouldn't be doing this but I'm selling my 5000W stealth bomber clone if anyone's interested just reply to this comment.
It goes over 28mph so its not street legal because its not an ebike.
"King nerd" you aint woz bro 😂
just tell them you're a wrapper 😎
Ooooo ya that'll get em!!
Falling apart already😂😂😂😂😂😂
Very cool but very expensive my poor ass can't afford it
Nice bike but that price for a 48v bike is insane. I don't care how good this bike looks, over 3 grand is a hard NO. To many 52v options out there with exactly the same performance for a thousand bucks cheaper (AR X Class, Lyric graffiti, Revv1, Raev bullet GTX). Thanks but no thanks Async. $2400 max.
@@MrMariovideo13 I don't know where you live, but I live in a very let's say segregated town, and I'm the only person like me that I see riding my fast moped style ebike, and I never get bothered. I truly believe that you have to have a really a-hole cop, or ride like a lunatic to get bothered by police. I've had cops literally talk to me at stop lights about my bike, and never stop me doing 25mph on sidewalks. Just ride cool, don't be dangerous around pedestrians and you'll be fine no matter what bike you ride.
but the problem is that they don't have the battery life i want, and the only way to get the battery life i want is to buy bikes like the dellfast, and suron which are bacially cheapter mototycles from china no thanks i don't want all the speed and a lot of states are cracking down on these bikes. a lot of the bikes you listed except for the revv1 is around the same price as the regular a1 spec and price wise basically the pro you get a bigger battery, belt drive, gps, and LTE that is why it is 1000 dollars more . the a1 pro being 3 grand instead of 6 grand and not buying those grey area bikes is a huge saving for me
find me a ebike that has 40 ah, that is not a cheap chinese motocycle trying to discused as a ebike, and for 2000 dollars i tried
@@MrMariovideo13 however, all those bikes I listed are 52v for way cheaper. For the amount of money you save, you can buy an additional battery of any size amp hour you need for your range. Laws don't crack down on style. If so, every Corvette, mustang, Ferrari would be banned from the streets. Moped style ebikes are still bikes. I've been riding my Ariel Rider X Class on the streets for over a year and never had a cop stop me for riding. I have been talked to twice because they were so interested in the bike and wanted to know info about it. I'm in a small town in South Carolina. Not some ultra liberal city in New York or California. I say get the best bang for your buck, and that doesn't include a 48v bike for 3500 dollars.
@@gmanhad even if bikes like dellfast and suron are legal now a lot of states are in talks of banning thse bikes like suron i don't want to take the risk. the models you listed are actually good ebikes from what i looked so far if i don't care about smart features and the optional power bank accessory i save 550 dollars when i buy two batteries the only annoying thing is that i have to swap batteries like my current ebike without the battery dying if i want to go on long trips
