    Thanks you for your comments! I do my best to keep up with them for the first few days after a video comes out, but due to the volume of comments on all of my videos, and to the general hustle and bustle of life, I must give up the fight after a while. If you are leaving a question four or more days after a video comes out I can't guarantee I'll see it, but perhaps one of my other viewers knows the answer and can help out. Thanks in advance to those who contribute and share their knowledge. Cheers and stay safe everyone!

    I’m seeing lots of these E-Bikes in Alberta now. It seems to be the go to mobility tools for the older folks that in the past would have maybe sat at home. I used to despise them in the past being a road biker but now I’m getting older and just glad to see the older folks getting out and about.

    I live on the Canary Islands and am following your videos for quite a while now. Was wondering when you would go electric! I've got a Spanish make, an Orbea. Great fun! I've ordered a Zero DSR a while ago, delayed because of the world wide situation. Still hoping for a test of yours, though I've seen everything on the web so far! Thanks for your and Brooke's videos! Been riding all my life and always look forward to your new videos! 👍👍👍

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад +1

      Cool, thanks! I will definitely go electric at some point, probably with a dirt bike first. The plan is to get a truck in a year or so so I can run a dirt bike to the trails. Once I have the truck I'll look arounf for a reasonably priced E Dirt Bike on which I won't need to change the oil or adjust the valves all the time.

    Thanks for testing an Ebike on your channel! Definitely do more in the future. We just bought our first Ebike (Lectric XP). My wife likes it but she thinks it's too heavy. Looking to get her an XP Lite, 20lbs lighter!

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад

      I have to admit to liking E-Bikes. If more come my way I’ll definitely test them out. The Himiway was surprisingly powerful but it was heavy. I don’t see A woman of smaller stature hefting it onto a bike rack.

    Great video as always! I have a question. Ive been looking for a reasonable dual purpose bike to go on 4 wheeler trails etc. Can this take its place? I still want to keep my street bike but want a dual purpose for quick rides from my house to the trail, or ride around the cottage. Thanks

    Go to Europe, Ebikes are everywhere.
    All styles and sizes.
    They make great inexpensive practical transport.
    As a bonus, you don't work up a sweat on a 38 degree day.

      Thanks for sharing! Yes, I've been seeing a lot around Canadian cities. A lot of delivery riders use them. The other day I sam an older woman riding her bike along the Ottawa riverfront pulling her dog in a trailer. It was great to see.

    I have an EM-2. (pictured) It'll do 65 kph around town, but the range is only 30-40 km at that speed. It's a fun commuter, and only 6 bucks extra on the power bill. These look pretty fun, as the battery is removable..meaning you could own a few to swap out.. and you can take them off road.

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад

      65kph is awesome! I like the removable battery because you can purchase an extra one, attach it to your rack and have double the range.

      Thanks! If I get my hands on some E Mountain Bikes I'll do it. The regular mountain biking stuff probably won't get a lot of views on this channel as it's a motorcycle audience. If you scroll back on my channel pre 2019 I have some cycling vids some of which are missing the sound because I used copyright music. That was when I was just messing around on RUclips when I had 20 subs.

    Hi can you do another test of this bike in winter . to see how it performs... thanks.

    • @DifferentSpokesTV

      I’ll consider it but Canadian winters are pretty severe. I don’t think I can stay out long enough to test the range.

    This bike looks very interesting and the price is amazing.
    On the subject of bike security, like the saddle stem, as a retired aircraft tech, I have wire locked (safety wired) everything that can move on my kids bikes with 50 thou. a/c lock wire. It has been remarkably successful, even in a student city like Aachen. 😅

    • @DifferentSpokesTV

      Yes, it definitely takes some elbow grease. Removing the battery first helps but it’s still not light.

    Recently purchased the 1st Indian Hooligan e-bike sold by Indian Motorcycle Sturgis and they’re definitely as you say. Whether running errands in town or in the hill and forests, it brings back the kid in me. How is something this fun legal ?

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад +2

      Yeah, technically it's not really legal with the speeds these things go. However, being a new class of vehicles it's hard to regulate and the laws are not really enforced which is fine by me.

    I've had a Lectric Ebike for about a year. I prefer my Honda Ruckus. I get more exercise, because you can't take the Ruckus all the places you can take an ebike.

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад +2

      Thanks for sharing! Yes, the Ruckus is pretty cool with a good range. That would make a good comparison. Unfortunately I need a truck to pick up a Ruckus from Honda Canada. Planning on that purchase in the next year.

  • @kevint3845
    @kevint3845 Год назад +1

    In the UK the fastest an electric bike can go is 15.5 miles per hour anything over that and it's called an electric motorbike, meaning you need a motorbike licence and everything else that goes with a motorbike

    • @RandysRides
      @RandysRides Год назад +1

      Man, the UK is sucky...I thought Canada was full of wimpy government...the max speed allowed on them here is 20 mph, or 32 kph. People on ten speed leg powered bikes can pass.them. hahahaha !!

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад +1

      I used to smoke E-Bikes on my regular road bikes back in the day but then started noticing a lot of them going a lot faster than the legal in Canada 32kph. I think the companies limit them out the door but purposely give you the tricks to easily unlock the full potential.

  • @GManWrites
    @GManWrites Год назад +1

    In BC ebikes are restricted to 32KMH sports bicycles can go faster 👎 It's hardly worth getting an ebike in BC. They want to get people out of cars and then they dumb the bikes down so much.

    • @DifferentSpokesTV
      @DifferentSpokesTV  Год назад +1

      Yeah, it’s the same in Ontario, but if you do some research most ebikes have a back door you can unlock. Just saying.

      @@DifferentSpokesTV im surprised you did not recommend getting a shock absorber seat post for this bike or any other hard tail bikes, even with fat tires they really justify the extra 30 to 150 bucks. maybe even a more padded seat, cloud nine or something like that.
