Oooof ordered mine nearly a month ago and I’m so excited for it to finally get here. I think they said around September; SO CLOSE! Great video, and I look forward to seeing that accessories video ;)
Very well thought out video with a lot of good information. You have now earned yourself another subscriber. Good informative video content with top notch editing and clear audio/vocals gets me every time. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the content.
Keep youre videos on the rcr like this and you will have dozens of ppl watching them. Theres so little actually good content out there so yes accessories vid plz
I'd say that version 2 should now be being planned as it's a reasonably good formula, but looks like it needs a little cosmetic work such as tidying of the cabling, better quality dash and improved fit and finish to the components etc. Even more power would be nice too, but that's probably pushing it a bit...
ONYX RCR bikes are highly customizable with moped parts. You can easily put these pegs on it. www.treatland.tv/puch-chopper-pedal-conversion-p/puch-chrome-chopper-pegs.htm
OK so Im 50yrs and ride motorbikes...road bikes, adventure bikes, racing bikes, 1000cc+. I am however really looking forward to this new technology...bring it on.
Awesome video straight to the point review! I want one of these so bad for cruising around the burbs, going through forests and hitting some quiet back roads. I'd mostly use it in ECO to squeeze out range and staying low key.
Depends on where you live. In Virginia this would be classified as a motorcycle and therefore would require a motorcycle license. Check your state laws on what is considered a motorcycle vs moped
So I am really interested in getting this bike but I have a question to anyone who owns or has ridden this. I am 6foot 4 inches and weigh about 320lbs. Would this be a good bike for someone of my sizes or is there one that is about as power/cost the same? I mostly see people riding this or Sur ron but I like this one a lot better because it looks more street friendly.
Hey! The bike will do just great with your weight is really powerful. But for your height you may have to so some easy modifications to make it a really comfortable ride. You can: Buy the tall standard version With dirt tires raise the handle bar or get a bmx bar Drop and match the pedals at 7 or 8 oclock You can push the seat all the way back or buy and extendedseat cutting the bar will allow you to go all the way if you need more, You can also add taller shocks. But before thinking of all that go to a store and ask them to let you seat on it or hopefully get a test drive. You may not need to do any
It can do 60mph but if you take it on the highway (I wouldn’t), make sure you have plates and insurance. The pedals classify it as an e-bike. You can’t bring a bike on the highway.
Yes, but in California you would register it as a moped. You can do it online. All that is required is your bikes serial number and pay a one time registration fee of $22.00 and your bike is registered for life.
Maybe someday. Just gonna enjoy the hell out of my HyperScorpion for awhile first. In FL I would have to register and insure this one. No thanks...for now. Interesting bike though! So exciting to see how innovated these e-bikes are becoming! About time.
@@MarioHernandez4music I just bought it outright, but I believe the payments don't start until you've accepted delivery. If you want to know more checkout the "Onyx RCR Mods" Facebook group. It's full of people with RCRs doing modifications and just generally talking about the bike. It's honestly the best place to start if you're considering picking one up.
Officially yes you need a moped license but cops usually don’t bother bikes if they look powerless so depending on your state, you may get away with writing this the whole day and nobody’s gonna care
@@seancashin1826 just a custom E bike build for yourself?… Are you thinking about showing it off and helping other people build something similar for good cost? I always say, it seemed the best E bikes are the ones that you custom make even fully specked out you could probably spend half the price!
@@doomtomb3 Everything that moves needs a part to be replaced at one time or another. Honda's are pretty reliable too. Also, its just as fuel efficient too
Not only that but the Grom sort of looks goofy don’t you think? When I see an adult on them it just looks too small. Whereas the Onyx looks amazing. It’s a real head turner
The more I hear about the bike the less attractive it gets I love it but the specs don't match the sticker price at nearly 6k I expect to get more than 20 miles in sport mode
Too bad this company had a emotional meltdown on social media and also is going out of business. They screwed over a few customers toward the end of their production. For some reason their site is still up and taking orders but they’re definitely going out of business. Read their Facebook shenanigan meltdown
I feel like the guy just read from Onyx’s web page. Where was the review? It says it can go 60mph. Well can it go 60mph or not? WTF? Can you pedal it or not. Started talking about pedals and then left me hanging.. Find a new job review person..
thats a joke of a battery...my home built tricycle has 48V 60 ah Lifepo4 ...just get a conversion kit from china and call it a day...those electric mopeds are not worth it whatsoever...
It might be cheaper if they outsource, but it won't be the same quality. THAT'S why it's worth it! It's one of the top of the line e-bikes for a reason.
It’s far from being a motorcycle👀 it’s overpriced👀 Gate Rado apart👀 not excellent cornering you could get a good used motorcycle for 400👀👀 i’m just saying you have to remember👀 it’s a toy RCR👀 PS if the bike sits for one or two months battery drains and never comes back 100%😳👀💕
Onyx RCR are a few guys building bikes in a garage. No wonder they are expensive. Some people have wrecked theirs and nobody will work on them You have NO support. They are basically history.
The price is unbelievable too much special during this bad economy situation this company taking advantage in the wrong time how they expect people spend $4000.00 to buy this scooter and you could get the same one from China in more much better future for less price this company have to read the market before the put there product to the market right now
only 400 mi. in a year? Jack needs to step his game up!
True. I have e-bike and mountain bikes with a thousand miles on them in a year.
Lol
I live in New England and can only realistically ride it half the year. I only ride it on weekends as well.
Lmao I have a electric skateboard and I’ve put 1100 miles on it in a year
Haha, I beat everybody. I have 2 lectric xp. 2 months owning. The black one has 2500. Uber eats

How do u like it?
Why does it take so long?

Love the 80's synthwave track!
Use it in your cybertruck videos

Accessories video pls! 😍
Would definitely be interested in an accessories video.
Does Jack work or go to MIT? I've been working at a site in MIT and I walk by an ONYX every day, right by building 4.
Awesome video straight to the point review! I want one of these so bad for cruising around the burbs, going through forests and hitting some quiet back roads. I'd mostly use it in ECO to squeeze out range and staying low key.
Sounds like a great idea! We got more ebike reviews coming soon. Super 73-RX and Segway x160 just to name a few
Do you need a license to drive this?
Depends on where you live. In Virginia this would be classified as a motorcycle and therefore would require a motorcycle license. Check your state laws on what is considered a motorcycle vs moped
Anyone have in California? Did you have to register to it as a traffic vehicle?
Can I purchase this from India
How long does it take to charge? I dont think I heard it in the video. Rewatching again
About 6 hours
How do I put a license plate in the back of the bike?
Do u need a license for this
How much is this bicycle please
Accessories video please!
What happens when you're in front of an 18-wheeler and your battery goes dead? Do you get smashed like a bug?
You would be stupid to ride where 18 wheelers drive knowing you don't have that much juice left.
What happens when your in front of an 18-wheeler and you run out of gas? Don’t be a dipshit
400 miles? In a year?
*What's the name of the wedside l wanna buy one?*
I want to truly figure out if this is street legal with no license and or plate in Florida but I see several different answers online
Not legal
wesly murphy what about texas?
@@jasonarreola4570 Google it... Texas allows up to 20mph.

Accessories video!! Please!!
Brother what the price when do you bay
They go for $3,300 used these days
Anyone know what helmet that is?
Would love to see an accessory video

I just ordered one how long it took u to get it
It takes 90 days plus 2 weeks for delivery
With this onyx rcr can you go on highways?
It can do 60mph but if you take it on the highway (I wouldn’t), make sure you have plates and insurance. The pedals classify it as an e-bike. You can’t bring a bike on the highway.
What kind of helmet is jack wearin in this?
Biltwell Gringo with chrome bubble shield
@@JackPaleczny Thanks man! I'm also gonna be that guy and ask you what kind of gloves are those?
Vasu M they are a collab between the suited racer and and dents! For some reason it won’t let me paste the link but search Suited Racer Dents gloves
@@JackPaleczny ok thanks alot man!
Price please
Does anyone know what the best electric bike is? I went to a review of the Monday Motorbike gen7 and everyone was talking about the Onyx
do you need any USA driving license for this bike ? pls lmk
Not in most states, but check your local laws for ebikes!
I’m scared the cops will pull me over if I ride this .
That’s what I’m afraid of. It has pedals so that classified it as an e-bike but the top speed is what changes the game.
Is the Cyberx '21 worth the cost of $6,498.00? RCR 72V or the Cyberx '21
Too early to tell, there’s no reviews yet. we contacted Xion to review the CyberX but haven’t heard back!
Exactly what I need, exactly what I will never have as I live in EU !
You get the super soco tc max in Europe. It's has similar specs. But looks more like a motorcycle.
Zo Green Yes I have that bike :) It’s the closest thing I could find sadly it struggles on the highway because of the stong winds
It does have an app
do the surron or the segway x260 next pleaseee!
Does this need a motorcycle license?
No, unless you register it as a motorcycle! In most states you won’t need to register it, and if you do you can register it as a moped
Moped> Motorcycle license in California.
Also how do you recharge it
You take the battery out to charge it indoors or you can plug it in directly.
im definitely getting that e bike
Edit: 5:36 i might get it if i work for 1 year
I will buy that ONYX NO on the Sport mode l saw a guy flip it launching too fast!!!!!
This is best review of the RCR yet
Randy S has a pretty thorough review as well.
@@contivertible63 Actually that Randy S review is waaaaay more in-depth.
Can I ride this in cali
Yes, but in California you would register it as a moped. You can do it online. All that is required is your bikes serial number and pay a one time registration fee of $22.00 and your bike is registered for life.

Do one with the Cake Ink SL!!!
You didnt say 60??? Did you ??
Theres one outside of my workplace so I decided to RUclips it, pretty cool...I like it
I was so excited to see this but you really let me down with this price
2 more months until I get mine!
How is the bike so far?
@@MarioHernandez4music Still waiting unfortunately, they've been backed up due to the pandemic :/ but hopefully no more than another month :)

I want one so bad but in my city there’s hardly any bike lanes and people drive like 💩.

Geez, $4k? Why not just buy a Honda Grom for that?

@@TechWeWant they both have their own style. The only issue is, you can't park them anywhere for long without someone trying to joyride it.

how was it?
@@classyguy69 Love it. Thing is fucking quick
@@peds8345 thanks for the response
This thing can save me a bundle on gas , now i want it 😂😂
For me and will save me on gas and toll
They’re cool, but who fixes these things when it breaks? Electric motorcycles are finicky
The more I hear about the bike the less attractive it gets I love it but the specs don't match the sticker price at nearly 6k I expect to get more than 20 miles in sport mode
C'mon Jack, I just put in 1k on mine in a little less than 3 months! Lmao 🤣
I want one so bad 😭
400 miles in a year on a moped, I did 400 miles on my boosted board in 2 months, that's some weak shit.
It’s actually closer to 700 miles! Our Boston winters are tough for bikes
Might as well buy a motor and install it on a regular bike at 25% of the cost of this bike and a few Saturdays
Tech I Want
400 miles? That's nothing lol
Rightt ide have like 3500
I do that in a Month
cool! but i really like these thogs having room for passenger!!
No offense to jack, but I put 400 on my ebike in one week 😂
So you can basically drive this on the highway.
Mopeds are nice but it's too pricey. I like E-bikes.
One thing I learned with e-bikes and scooters is you get what you pay for.
Electric motorcycle?!? But it has “fully operable pedals” 💭
Classifies it as an e-bike.
I hared that the seat is not comfortable at all 🤷🏻♂️
Jack put 400 miles in a year huh? Lol
This is cool
Sondors Metacycle is the new RCR killer!
This is an overview not review.

Of course you can pedal it, why would it have pedals otherwise ?
Next year this is all me
Don't buy this bike until the new owner is gone or something change with their customer service

build your own for cheaper and faster
Overpriced. They need to move their manufacturing out of California
It might be cheaper if they outsource, but it won't be the same quality. THAT'S why it's worth it! It's one of the top of the line e-bikes for a reason.

There is no way they are worth $4K! The Chinese will build one as good for $1.5K.
