Accessories & Mods! --⚡️Ariel Rider X-Class⚡️

[@Robmb93]

Man, awesome mods! I'm brand new to the ebike world, I bought an x class used a few weeks ago and I'm totally in love with it. You're video on how to change a back tire totally saved my ass since I got a flat last week but as of today I'm back riding! Was really stoked I could do it myself so thank you! I just ordered myself some mirrors and a helmet and now I think I'm gonna order one of those pouches you've got on yours! Might get some of the black tape too, my bike is red as well and I love the red/black combo. Cheers man, thanks for all the good info!

[@rad_scrambler9705]

excellent review !! those bags/pouches looks really nice ! i was debating which ebike to get next summer... my mind is definitely on an ariel x-class now

[@michaelklinge1857]

thanks I hope mine takes 4 months we have snow here till April nice mods glad you have a good opinion of the bikes I ordered the 52v as I am over 200 lbs and we have a lot of hills here

[@RustyRoads]

Oh man you're gonna have a blast Mike !! I cant wait for better weather, but cant stop riding now haha ! I have a review of the 48V coming very soon btw

[@grow4207]

Excellent video, lots of good ideas. Keep those videos coming! BTW I saw another guy put black braid over the cabling that really looked nice.

[@RustyRoads]

I've seen that too! Looks great because its thinner! Benefit to the conduit is its thick and sturdy enough to attach certain things like a phone mount, horn etc That braiding is awesome I need some !! 🍃🐾💨

[@bobbyGnOly]

Bought my first bike thru you...thanks...love the dog

[@RustyRoads]

Hey Robert, congrats and thanks! What color and model did you get? 🐾❤️

[@bobbyGnOly]

@@RustyRoads After buying an X52, I took advantage of an offer Ariel Rider made and upgraded my order to Grizzly...

[@RustyRoads]

@@bobbyGnOly Oh wow very nice!! Ride safe and have fun !! 🐾

[@stoneygreek]

got a shipping number on the 26th oct. Hasnt updated yet. Only thing I have bought are a cell phone holder. Im super excited to get this bike. If i like it i will get an Onyx at some point.

[@RustyRoads]

Damn an Onyx I hear that!

[@lavernejones6520]

When is blue touchup paint going to be available??

[@lecroixband]

Hey man just a shout out, I was looking at another bike and could not find one within my price range that had all the features that the aerial X class has, Thanks for the postings because I think I found the bike I like!

[@RustyRoads]

Hey LeCroix!! Thanks for checking out our videos !♥️ New video premiering tonight at 9:30 eastern! I think this one will help make up your mind 🤠 😎🐾⚡

[@mrnewyorkcity7]

I waited 75 day...4 mine they do got great customer service....I lov my x class Im in New York city...my x class look lk the Ferrari of all d ebike....so much attention...it's crazy how great diz bike is for the price point...👍

[@BRAND1SH]

What type of lock are you using?? I'd be so worried in NYC with one of these

[@thebluethunderbunny2324]

I'm riding an arrow 10 in NYC right now, but i'm heavily considering this bike. How many miles of range do you get from throttling?

[@tedg3250]

Got mine in black. I'm in Queens nyc can't wait to put that bike on the street

[@seminolerider]

Crazy story... First, I used your discount code when I purchased my X-class. (It's on the way.) Thanks! I also ordered the pouch you have on the top since Ariel is out of their brand. But the real story is concerning the helmet. While watching your video, I kept thinking your helmet is cool, but looks familiar. The more you talked about it, I realized it's the one I have that already have. I did not know it flipped up all the way like that. - Awesome and great videos!

[@RustyRoads]

Hey MD! Congrats on your order and I hope it arrives on time or early! Thanks for using our code ! I'm not sure I'd be able to tell that helmet opens either without knowing in advance haha. The button is very well hidden lol Cheers ! 🐾

[@seminolerider]

@@RustyRoads Thanks...me too! Regards!

[@garymertens4796]

Rusty is awesome he's so cute. I think I'm going to get a x class 52v their back ordered till july. I'm going to need to change the handle bars because I had my back fused so I think I will be more comfortable with little higher bars. I've been looking at other stuff I will need to go with the bike so if I order one I will start getting the stuff I need to go with it. Thanks again for your videos. If I get one or order one I will let you know. Ride safe and take care.

[@RustyRoads]

Thanks Gary that means a ton ! There are links to all my gear in the descriptions of my videos. The more recent ones have the most up to date list! If you get one definitely let us know ! Feel free to use our code "RustyRoads" as well for $50 off !

[@scottrogers8293]

The link for the shock comes up with the 160mm selected. I just removed mine to double check the length and had it at 165mm (6.5") so that's what I just ordered.

[@RustyRoads]

[@brockedwards5896]

How exactly do you attach the black bag under rear of your bike. I bought one and I don't see an easy way to attach it. Thanks.

[@RustyRoads]

Hey Brock! I attached it between the shock mount and tail light bracket 👍🏽 I'll have a new accessories/mods/upgrades video coming soon and will mention this👍🏽 Thanks !

[@michaelklinge1857]

thanks for getting back to me I was just wondering if there's a 12v power plug I would like to put a horn and directionals on mine when it gets here I know some companies have them but no mention of it in the Ariel rider specs

[@RustyRoads]

I just got some auxiliary lights along with a 12 volt power bank, if they work out I will post a video and I'm pretty sure that power bank will work with your turn signals

[@patrickdelamparo6074]

they said back orders shipped out oct 10

[@ItsNoe]

How’d you mount the bottom bag under the seat ? I just received it and the straps aren’t long enough

[@RustyRoads]

Hi Noe! I looped the rear strap around the top of the shock 🐾⚡🤙🏽

[@ricardoarcelay73]

Hey Michael quick question I bought the same rear shock for when my bike arrives is it a pug and play or did you have to change the spacer with any of the ones the shock came with?

[@RustyRoads]

You have to swap the spacers 👍🏽

[@ricardoarcelay73]

@@RustyRoads oh ok thanks!

[@ridesharebiz5317]

Great stuff. Do you know if I can put a rear bike trunk bag on the X?

[@RustyRoads]

With the rear rack yes! We'll have a new accessories video soon and will cover it !!

why did it take 2 months to get the bike. thats not an avrage wait time is it?

[@RustyRoads]

It was back in 2020 and early 2021 🐾

[@michaelklinge1857]

glad your wearing helmets you can trust yourself to do the right thing but you can't trust others to do the same too many distracted drivers these days be well thanks for the video

[@RustyRoads]

Yep Helmets are must. If you wouldnt jump out of a moving car at 30mph without a helmet, then GET A HELMET !!!

What is the top speed without pedaling ??

[@RustyRoads]

32-36 depending on rider weight 🤘🏽🐾

[@tjgrafiks]

Damn those helmets are literally the cost of a cheap ebike or nice mountain bike 400-500 is crazy lmao

[@gioxcb1583]

Know where i could get good side mirrors ? big and tall

[@RustyRoads]

Hey Gio, you probably want to go for some motorcycle mirrors, or perhaps some Hafny (I believe that's how its spelled) mirrors from amazon 🐾

[@MrMonro27]

Hi 👋 new x-class owner and sub here. Was hoping someone had asked about the seats. The only downsides to these bikes I think are the tires and the seats if your someone who is a little bigger like myself. Luckily they are both fixable. I also came across Saul’s upholstery from the Ariel rider FB group. I’m going to order one myself very soon hopefully because of how long the turnaround is right now at 8-9 weeks. I know this is an old video but was hoping you could answer a couple questions about your seat purchase? Did you get the stock height of 3 inches or did you add extra height to it? Also did you add the gel top layer? Is it at all wider then the stock seat? And how do you like it overall? Sorry for so many ?s lol but with the cost of these seats and the timeframe I’d like to make sure I get the right options! As I’m writing this I’m wondering if you had made a seat review video so I’m going to look that up to maybe answer some of these. Love your videos and keep on keeping on! 👍🏼🚲

[@study4388]

Dopeee!!

[@patrickdelamparo6074]

why does it take 4 months?

[@RustyRoads]

Long story short, the pandemic has caused insane waiting times for product shipped from overseas The wait sucks but it's well worth it! 🐾🤘🏽⚡💥

[@fryderyktube3d]

Hold on. It takes 4 MONTHS for it to deliver?!? I thought it takes like 4-5 days?

[@RustyRoads]

Hi ! Bike or accessories?

[@fryderyktube3d]

@@RustyRoads Hi! The Bike

[@RustyRoads]

@@fryderyktube3d it can take that long unfortunately. AR does their best to provide expected shipping dates but different factors can affect those unfortunately. It took nearly 5 months last year when we ordered our X48s, and I ordered the X52 in Nov. I'd still be waiting if I hadn't received it early. 🐾

[@fryderyktube3d]

@@RustyRoads Sorry for being a nuisance but I have one more question. Did your bike come so late because you pre-ordered it or was it in stock just it took that long?

[@RustyRoads]

@@fryderyktube3d No worries ! It was a pre order (technically still is as it hasnt officially released). When I paid for it back in Nov it already had a release date of May 2021. Tektro shortage pushed it back sadly

do u kno what the throttle only top speed on level ground is?

33-36mph depending on tires Sector. Temperature also affects top speed. Thanks for watching 🐾⚡🤙🏾
