    I've been using an e-bike for a while now, absolutely love it, just makes it easier going out on longer rides etc, best thing I've bought in ages 👌🏻

      Yep I agree. Whilst it’s not popular among the hardcore cyclists, if you just want a nice easy going ride in the country it’s perfect. 👌 if I wasn’t gifted this I’d buy one. 👍 🚴

      Well worth it. So nice riding round. However I think part of the track is closed. There was a fence up just after the viaduct (heading towards the dam) on the way (from the dam) I didn’t see a fence though. Maybe it was there and I never saw it. I’d check with them as to which parts open or not. 👍 there’s still 13 odd miles if that section is actually closed off though.

    Great looking bike that, looks a meaty sod but i am dissapointed to hear that its not waterproof. Especially here in blighty up the northern part aswell. We only get a weeks dry weather. Great ride that fella with some superb scenery. Impressed that there were no annoying midges about. Take care Andy

    Nice video Andy, great looking bike but just a note about throttle and speeds, unfortunately for you to be able to use them you need to be on private land with permission, you cant legally use them anywhere that has public access, even if its off road ....unless totally private land 😉

    • @AndyWardle
      @AndyWardle  Год назад +1

      Yeah the throttles not connected there. Just pedal assist. I point out it’s not road legal. I think the lower power bikes are better. The DYU range is great. Quality builds too. But yeah. Get permission etc. 👍

    • @Mickoutdoors
      @Mickoutdoors Год назад

      @AndyWardle I wasn't trying to to be negative btw, I'm not fussed what people do within reason lol, just didn't want people thinking they can buy this bike and go blasting it across the moors lol, uk legal is a 250w motor set at 15.5mph and walk assist at no more than 6km, a lot of the bikes being sold with bigger motors are simply marked down to 250w, and set at the other bits, but I'm sure you know it's quite simple to bypass all that mallarky by the headset, it's what I'd do if I'm honest lol

    Good test. I’ve floated the idea of an e-bike for a while but I didn’t realise water ingress during rain could be a problem. I wonder if this is common to most e-bikes ?
    I’ll have to do more research 👍

  • @uptowndisco2
    @uptowndisco2 4 месяца назад

    I know this video is a few months old , but no way is the power meter reading properly the 92 watts is probably 920 peaking which would be correct for this 750 watt model as it says online it does peak at over 900 , I think if you add a zero to the end of all the 2 numbers showing on the power meter would be more realistic, I think the company has made a boo boo not using all the digits on the display , anyway I will find out as I have ordered one as the bike has been reduced in price to 1100 UK pounds, a spare battery is over half the price of the bike so I hope it lasts 😂 .I am 68 and its not the only E Fat-bike I have , never too old for fun .

    • @AndyWardle
      @AndyWardle  4 месяца назад +1

      Maybe the digits were there. The display flickers on camera. Which was annoying. The battery lasts a good while. I tested this on 3/4 battery and it was good for the 26 miles. I used a lot of throttle to wear it out too. The pedal assist is great. And it’ll bounce over any terrain. It’s great fun. I’ll be using it plenty in the nicer weather. Atb. 👍

  • @mischef18
    @mischef18 Год назад

    Well it seams to be a good one bro, does it regen when you peddle without assist or on down hill as that would help the battery last longer. Safe travels. Ken

    • @AndyWardle
      @AndyWardle  Год назад +1

      Unsure. I don’t think it regenerates it just sort of refreshes. The bars were fluctuating between 2-3 on the uphills. Then settled on the flat. I should’ve said (did I?) the battery wasn’t fully charged. 👍

    • @mischef18
