Yep, as a CitiBike user, I quickly learned to use my legs as suspension of last resort…See a pothole or crazy construction feature (steel plates, plastic speed bumps) come up? Stand up off the seat and let your joints cushion the shock. Still much easier on the knees than jogging-and, on the gnarliest roads, even the faint sensation of airtime. (Very faint-these CitiBikes are heavy as tanks.)
Rode a bike in NYC for the first time on one of these last weekend! Best bike ride of my life. So much fun
Love to hear that! Yes, biking in NYC is an absolute blast
question does something on the bike make the bike go by itself?
It’s an e-bike so yeah
Those things need some shocks. Those bumps and potholes sewers can really be dangerous

Do you get a boost when u pedal
Yes
Yep!
you could utilize your bells a bit more... especially around corners and when coming up from people's behind
I ride those bike all the time with the SNAP membership. It’s actually a nice ride lol 😅
That parade is great!
Isn't it?
what do you use to record?
This was using the INSTA 360 Go 2
Are those pedal assist only?
Yep. Pedal assist only. But these new bikes really fly. So fun to ride
@@thatbikerguy6432 they need to do one with a throttle
Great mobility and speed too!
Thank you!
Wow I got to look out for those bikes...
They SHOULD be watching out for you too!
