Excellent Speed test Johnny and Thankyou for posting you are fast becoming one of my favourite UK ebike Creators because your varied posts are interesting viewing🙏👏🤘😎🤘
That's good to hear I am always trying to mix it up and keep it interesting but easier said than done lol. Really appreciate this comment Thanks you again
Another great video Johnny. It made a bit more speed than I thought. Thinking of getting the same upgrade you’ve gone for. I’ll wait till you’ve done a range test first.It’s great exploring up here in the Peak District but lots of hills. Keep up the good work.😀👍
Thank you and I agree bit more speed than I imagined. Range test will be soon I just need a few hours spare and a nice route. I can imagine it's lovely to explore that place. More hills than here. Cheers
Wow, looked so ridiculously fast with the hedgerows moving in, I as getting fearful for you Johnny, and relieved when you came off the gas! You’re right, it had more to give in current form, and even more with 48 tooth sprocket! Impressive stuff! Helps me in benchmarking mind too. Thank you mate!!
That's why I don't like fast speeds especially off road I don't need that. But this test had to be done and it done better than I thought it would. Won't be doing that again on this bike if I don't have to. Glad it's given you a rough idea mate 👍
This is the mirror I have and it's OK for quick look but not great although it's perfect for me i notice anything behind and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb . www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155067711081?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Q5kLax9TRfi&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=nhaTVgp5Rnm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
Great vid mate and I’m in shock and didn’t think you was going to get 62 mph and could maybe get a bit more ,thats on par with the demonx 170 for top speed and that could make a great vid in the future the demonx 170 vs the sur ron anyway I’m all up to date on your vids so look forward to the next 👍
I was wondering about that actually. makes me nervous just watching, and I wonder about those tyres how they do for the road. Have you rode through that Ditchley park yet ? its a bit further away but it was quite nice when I went through there in the spring time, not sure how much of it is accessible though.
Not the best on road or off road kinda in-between stock tyres. Would be less rolling resistance with road tyres yes. No but I passed it the other day and keep meaning to pop in there. Definitely access through it but unsure about anything else I shall have a quick look on website.
@@motomachinezuk8786 I like the display that you've got on your Sur Ron now, I think its the same one that I have on both my hub motor bikes, on your video it looks really more colorful though so I wonder if it really is exactly the same. I've been experimenting with repairing inner tube instead of buying news ones, a little thorn managed to get through my marathon pro 1.75 inch tyres on the mid drive which was surprising.
Nice! I agree that top speed isn’t important but power delivery is where it’s at. I de-tuned my BAC8000/72v Ron from 13.5 KW to around 6.5 KW. Perfect for off road riding, turning those heavier wheels and tires ‘round and pretty good range. Cheers mate!
Definitely and not alot of people get it they want top speeds which are irrelevant off road. Unless racing the Dakar or something lol. I'm mostly in low setting as just not needed but it's nice to have available with the press of a button. Where I ride its pretty slow stuff like average 10 to 20 mph I would guess. Thanks mate 👍
Great video, and thank you for doing the risky high speed riding for the speed test. Question: what app did you use on your phone for maximum speed? Thanks!
Hi I'm glad you enjoyed and yes arnt my favourite things to do but I also wanted to know. Speedometer is what the app is called; hope this helps Thanks
@@motomachinezuk8786 I live in Southern California where everybody and his mother--and 10 year olds--have e-bikes and/or Sur Rons. I've done lots of reading and RUclips channel watching regarding the electric bike to get. It's either the Sur Ron or a Cab Motorworks Eagle.
I'm 75kgs, no it didn't drain it massively, just as you would expect from riding faster. It's not great to hold these for more than 15 seconds wide open bit bike a 2stroke bike
Haha same but so far it's been good I justneed to stop it spinning around. Surprised me 62mph. That's plenty for sure might even put on a larger sprocket Cheers fella 👍
I plan to put first I wanna try 190 against 170 now I've changed carb and happy with sprocket set up. I think 190 is quicker now and the quickest out of these shall challenge surron
Hope the cops don't try to seize it from you! Get a pedal kit for it to at least help say it's a bicycle, & put a governor on the speed for like 15.5mph, 28mph, & have the 3rd level "unlimited", then you can keep at a legal speed, & with the 2nd speed level(28mph) you can at least slow down fast, & you're still not going that fast, under 30 is not that fast
@@WGTracingcops don't care when they stop mei brag that I could have gotten away if I wanted and I was considerate enough to stop for them this time unlike last and they just laugh and tell me to have a good night And sometimes when I get bored ill bait cops and get the heli out, I know my area too well
There is a guy in californa 80mph he's got a garage can't remember the name that was two years ago. You want to get it registered as a copper wil be on one these corner and you will get your bike crushed your taken a big chance. Why do yo want to 70 mph 30to40mph is just nice for riding
I don't want 70mph I was just saying for others I think it would be possible with oem sprocket. Who rides that fast off road, no need. Yes I see that guy ages ago Cecil or something he had 72v battery so I would expect more top end.

awesome video Johnny! that thing rips 62mph is insane for an ebike 🔥
It's mad eh for electric bike and the way it gets there, love it.
Cheers mate
Really like your rear view mirror, have a link for it?
This is the mirror I have and it's OK for quick look but not great although it's perfect for me i notice anything behind and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb . www.ebay.co.uk/itm/155067711081?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Q5kLax9TRfi&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=nhaTVgp5Rnm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
That's looks pretty cool buddy! Awesome video!🤘🤘

As you said. its all about the delivery.
Exactly it's about how it gets there as top speeds arnt my thing and no good for off roading unless in the Dakar or something similar
I'm thinking of buying one, Would I have to have insurance on it?

72 volt stock sprocket 78 mph for me, 185lbs.
How much kw did you run !?
So what mode were you actually in on the trail?
Looks sick pretty much the same to my testing I weigh 250 lbs so yea you’ll definitely hit 70mph at 44t and 60v12kw easily

What sprocket you running
Cool video mate what’s your weight and did the battery decrease significantly after top speed pulls
I'm 75kgs, no it didn't drain it massively, just as you would expect from riding faster. It's not great to hold these for more than 15 seconds wide open bit bike a 2stroke bike
I had a fast electric bike once knocked unconscious broke my nose hurt both my hands speed kills. carry on
What asi settings are you running?
I'm not sure it can all set up and ready to rip I've not investigated settings as happy how they are. Electron Cycles did it
Hi what controller u use it .
Bac 4000. It does say on thumb nail mate
Dude that phone holder was giving me anxiety hahahaha DAMN 62 Mph hell ya hahaha Nice trail ride at the end Stay safe brother
Haha same but so far it's been good I justneed to stop it spinning around. Surprised me 62mph. That's plenty for sure might even put on a larger sprocket
Cheers fella 👍
Should race the 170 pitbike an see whats faster on tarmac
I plan to put first I wanna try 190 against 170 now I've changed carb and happy with sprocket set up. I think 190 is quicker now and the quickest out of these shall challenge surron
Johnny where are your gloves dude !!!
Hope the cops don't try to seize it from you!

Not worth it low chance of seeyin cops anyways

Better test that speed on the road, it's better suited for speed
You now own one of badest e dirt bikes in the world. Congrats I'm jealous
Thank you it's definitely getting there
