So nice to see a normal person do a video on this bike. Thank you! My green one is supposed to come sometime after the first of the year, so I am excited about that! I’d be curious to see what kind of range you get, given that you are driving it at 38 miles an hour all the time.
Thank you for the kind comment. Normal? I don't know about that but thanks. I'm out doing some range testing today I'm averaging about 30 mi with pedaling a lot and some throttle. I don't ride around at 38 miles an hour a lot. I actually rode around at 40 a lot today but I had to I was late for a meeting and I was way out on a trail. I'll post that video tonight it's actually a much better video. Thanks let me know if you have any other questions.
@@MickReynolds-hd8bb, You won't be disappointed. It's a great bike. It's much more impressive in real life. I'm still blown away at how beautiful the bike is. Blue and black go very well together. The acceleration pulls hard from a dead stop, and the top end is great as well. Best of luck.
I bought the blue one as well, two months ago. I absolutely love mine, and apparently lots of other prople do as well. I get compliments on how gorgeous the bike is, and the inevitable questions arise. I don't mind answering though, I had lots myself, before watching review videos, which were all very complimentary towards the model. I live in Florida as well, so we have lots of great riding weather here.
Good job for your first video on a Wired bike. Brake rotors need to be cleaned with rubbing alcohol before your first ride or they will squeal like a pig later on. The machine shop that cuts the rotors leave cutting oils on the rotors and if not cleaned off before your 1st ride will contaminate the brake pads causing the squeal. Only way to solve the issue is to replace the brake pads. I have learned from experience. I have 4 and soon 5 ebikes with my Wired Freedom coming in January. I am looking forward to your next video.
Nothing is forever..... try spraying the brake pads with brake cleaner right away. I preach the rotor cleaning at my other forums to help other avoid this issue. This should be a "sticky" at the top of the Wired Forums to help others out. @@FloridaE-bikeAdventures
Thanks for your review, I was considering the Wired Freedom e-bike and some other affordable e-bikes with a max speed of 35 to 40 mph. I would highly recommend on your next maintenance to put blue 242 Loctite threadlocker (medium strength) or any other threadlocker comparable brands. I was using this threadlocker on my mountain bikes and my two boy kids bikes for a couple of decades now. Just clean the threads with alcohol or any degreaser, dry, then apply one of two drops of threadlocker. Let dry for a full day before riding. The threadlocker are also good for any vibrating devices or vehicles to prevent screws from coming loose.
JD enjoyed! Also appreciate the down to earth time of the entire thing! All the feedback is helpful as anticipate getting my freedom next mo. This is my first foray into ebike territory. Been riding road bikes for long time not hardcore, just exercise! I too am trying do some weight as get older! Hopefully this helps with activity. I'll trace back comments in the Wired group on the seat but if can remind me which seat have on your other bike that highly recommend.. Thanks again for posting!...
Thanks Jim, I appreciate you watching. Just got done filming an off-road single track video and I'll be editing and uploading that tonight and I have all the information on the seat but it's called the blue wind extra wide seat on Amazon it's $45 and it's awesome. Keep an eye out from an next video thank you
I just ordered a Wired Freedom an hour ago with a couple of accessories. Edit: the reason that I bought an e-bike is because I’m an old man and need a bike to exercise on. Plus, if I’m bushed while out riding I can use the electric motor to get home!😊
I'm in my 50's. Ebikes have changed my life for the better. I've lost 40 pounds so far and feel better than I have in a long time. And it's the most fun you can have. Good luck!
Nice score man, I really like these Wired Freedoms. Ive been looking for others in the area to ride ebikes with if you are interested.?. We just had our emtbs out at JD. It was a great sandy time.
absolutely. I'll go to JD anytime. I am sticking to the baby/green trails for now. I got on a black trail by accident recently on my big slow heavy Himiway Zebra, it was torture. lol. Let me know how we can chat. A couple of us are going to JD this coming Sunday at 2pm, weather permitting.
@@FloridaE-bikeAdventures awesome dude. I put my # but I guess it got deleted. I'm going to try to meet up with you at JD Sunday we exchange info there I guess.
We're hoping the weather forecast improves. Let's touch base Saturday. I'm looking forward to some ebiking this weekend, weather permitting.@@FloridaEbikes
@@FloridaE-bikeAdventures looks like it will probably clear up but id imagine the trails will be flooded. Part if me wants to push it but im going to go deal hunting for my GameRoom collection. Definitely want to meet up and ride asap though.
You have'nt put on any mirrors yet, may I suggest you get a rear view camera mirror. I put one on my NEW ebike (Wired Freedom) and that's all you need.
I'm in Kissimmee and really thinking about pulling the trigger on this bike . I'm going to call them tomorrow and see if I can special order the white one. (It's not one of the color choices on the website)
I'm probably close to your weight as well, how many watts are you pulling on flat ground at 20MPH on throttle only? Also could you share what light and rack you have mounted to the handlebars?
I cruise around at about 400ish watts at 17ish miles an hour, peddling or throttle only. The light is from amazon. They have several to choose from. I recommend the highest lumens and largest battery. It works great.
They say a minimum of 5'8. I'm almost 6 ft 2 in and it feels perfect. If you need something smaller wired makes a step through called a cruiser that has the same power system just looks different and does not have dual suspension but it's still a great bike and very fast. Check out their website lots of information there.
Wired Customer Service Rep assured me a rider who is 5"7 like me would have no problem riding this e-bike and it also advertises from 5'4"-6'4" on their webpage.

@@insurancemann1 how much was the bike, can you send a link for where to buy one please?
@@MickReynolds-hd8bb just google wired ebikes. You can only buy directly from the company. Great people and an awesome bike.
@@MickReynolds-hd8bb, You won't be disappointed. It's a great bike.

I just ordered a wired freedom. I won’t get it until mid to late July so I’m excited about that. Thank you for your video. Lots of good information.
Awesome. You are going to have a lot of fun!

I've got the same bike in the same exact color. This bike is large and in charge, and turns heads EVERY where I go ! I love it ! Well worth the wait !
Sorry you had no choice other than blue

Thank you. I wish I had known about cleaning the rotors because I did not do that now I feel like I’m cursed with squeaky brakes forever. Darn it.

Use brake cleaner on the rotors, remove the pads and rub them with sandpaper and hit those with brake cleaner too after

Could you make a list of your addons + links for the bike? ie the headlamp…Thank you!

Thank you for your comment. I’m 66 and hope that this helps me.
good review.... looking forward to your next review

BlueWinds by far. I will look for a link but it's all over Amazon
Nice score man, I really like these Wired Freedoms.

@@FloridaE-bikeAdventures yup, same. One good thing the sand will be nice and compact.

Can you post the link to the seat you’re talking about , thanks
I've settled on the Blue Winds seat from Amazon. It's featured in my latest video I posted today. It is the most comfortable seat I've found.
Could you please share with us what is the seat you found works best for you?
Blue Winds wide seat from Amazon. I love this seat.
Where did you get the blue tape around the wheels? Looks sweet
Amazon
Great job with the video and losing weight my friend! 👍 I just subscribed
What headlight did you add on there?
I like the headlights he have on there also.
You have'nt put on any mirrors yet, may I suggest you get a rear view camera mirror. I put one on my NEW ebike (Wired Freedom) and that's all you need.
I installed my mirror right after this. I never ride without one (except when I was too excited with my new Freedom to wait lol).
All right, cool glad to hear it. @@FloridaE-bikeAdventures
Great review, new to your view. Wondering what phone app your using? Love this bike. Where did you purchase it? Thanks again. New Subscriber!
The app is SuperCycle. I like it a lot. www.wiredebikes.com
What’s the deal with the wheel nut? What exactly does that mean? Are they replacing it?
I'm in Kissimmee and really thinking about pulling the trigger on this bike .
I'm going to call them tomorrow and see if I can special order the white one. (It's not one of the color choices on the website)
you won't be sorry. I donk think they have more white, but let me know! Please join our Facebook Group. It is Florida Wired Ebike Owners
Kissimmee has some of the worst traffic i swear.
I'm probably close to your weight as well, how many watts are you pulling on flat ground at 20MPH on throttle only? Also could you share what light and rack you have mounted to the handlebars?
I cruise around at about 400ish watts at 17ish miles an hour, peddling or throttle only. The light is from amazon. They have several to choose from. I recommend the highest lumens and largest battery. It works great.
Wait!!! Not stock!!! You bought a C9 seat
Is it FREE shipping to own one ?????? m
No.
How tall would you say you’d have to be to ride this bike?
They say a minimum of 5'8. I'm almost 6 ft 2 in and it feels perfect. If you need something smaller wired makes a step through called a cruiser that has the same power system just looks different and does not have dual suspension but it's still a great bike and very fast. Check out their website lots of information there.
I'm 6'2" and it fits me perfect. I think anyone 5'8" and below will have a very hard time. It's a big bike.
Wired Customer Service Rep assured me a rider who is 5"7 like me would have no problem riding this e-bike and it also advertises from 5'4"-6'4" on their webpage.
it's not how tall you are. It's how long your legs are.... inseam?
Where is the place to buy that bike
www.wiredebikes.com
You say your almost at the weight threshold at 230. That bike is rated at 330 lbs.
whats the app on ur phone?
SuperCycle. It is a very good app
thank you!@@FloridaE-bikeAdventures
my pleasure
I cannot for the life of me figure out what's wrong with my rear shock.
