As Fast As It Looks! (35+ MPH) - Ride1Up Revv 1 E-Bike Review

[@kENSTA2020]

This is the best review I've seen on Revv 1, gonna wait until the next version comes out.

[@furybn7527]

when is it coming out?

[@vinnani_]

@@furybn7527 I agree with this comment on reddit: "Total speculation but considering they just released the DRT version I don’t think there’s a new model coming soon. It would be a strange business decision to come out with a new model (drt has different tires and I think suspension) and then refresh the model just a few months later."

[@bennetthasty7886]

Great review a WAY better deal than the over priced Super 73 IMO

[@SpecTechularGadgets]

This is such a great video informational wise and visually. I'm looking into eBikes and learning a lot of what I should be looking for with these types of bikes. I'm looking for one for short riders, as I am 5'0 lol. Thanks for sharing.

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

Thanks for those kind words. The Fiido T1 Cargo bike is a good option for shorter riders and it has a step-thru design so it is easy to get on and off and can get up to 28+ MPH. Here's my video on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJPFY5yDmZaNkMk

[@SpecTechularGadgets]

​@@SoldierKnowsBestThank you, I will take a look at the one you mentioned.

[@DK_Raiders117]

This bike is awesome! I just unlocked it and going to test it in the next couple of days. Also, thanka for clarifying what the extra stickers were for. I was wondering and no other videos I've watched talks about them. Great, thorough video!

[@JACisRAW]

Did the bike ship well? Also how does the chain tensioner look, does the chain feel too tight

[@DK_Raiders117]

The bike was shipped so poorly that FedEx sent it back as undeliverable. Ride1up sent me a new one when the return was initiated. I got a new chain that's being mailed to me. Notice came today. I'll check the tensioner tomorrow.

[@JACisRAW]

@@DK_Raiders117 I just received mine today, packaging was tight and shipped well for me. The chain came in short so I’m also getting that new chain shipped to me, so far tho, bike is quick and really fun

[@minnesotanice369]

how are the brakes

[@DK_Raiders117]

@@minnesotanice369 the brakes work well. I haven’t had any problems with them.

[@jonasan-san]

I've been scouring reviews for this bike and you got the best one for sure. Super informational and you capture all the good angles of the bike so I can get an idea of how I want to mod it. However I am still wondering if there is a water bottle mount anywhere on the bike?

[@stayreal4l284]

There definitely isn’t, but one can be installed

[@jonasan-san]

@@stayreal4l284 but where?

[@stayreal4l284]

@@jonasan-san on the bottom of the frame on top of the controller there is bolt mounts, I’m sure you can find something to fit there. There is also a basket they sell where you can store plenty of things.

[@jonasan-san]

@@stayreal4l284 oh of course. Bit of a shame you have to make a choice there though. I would plan to put a 2nd battery there so I guess the only option left is straps... Thanks for letting me know.

[@KandBDoormasters]

Just got mine… Loving it so far

[@dimitruscherry]

how long for shipping?????

[@furybn7527]

how many miles do you get on the unlocked mode?

[@ridesharebiz5317]

Great presentation on the bike. Wear a full face helmet when riding Class 3 ebikes or riding over 20mph. So many different moped ebikes on the market. The good thing the price is reasonable to buy one. Too bad they don't sell a rear rack. Stay safe and enjoy your ride.

[@legonut78]

Yeah. The lack of rear rack/panniers is a deal breaker. Why have a bike without the ability to haul your stuff?

[@speedviolin]

You did the best review of this e-bike. I really want one but it cost so much to get it in Canada Montreal. I wonder if pedalling at 5'7 feel good?

[@megabreeeze]

Nice rap up on this bike , l like the style as well this would be my pick, great job.

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

Thanks!

[@stayreal4l284]

Hi there, great video, really informative! When you ask them about unlocking the bike to go faster, does it void the warranty?

[@desertraven111]

I love mine. Never knew about the “Walking Mode,” but haven’t needed it.

[@JacobHeberlie]

My man! Making STL and that bike look beautiful.

[@domingoc9721]

Great review and this one is on my list of comparisons. Love the C3Strom but love this one too. Enjoy the rides and stay safe. Also, subscibed thanks for the good video. 👍

[@brittanybradford9239]

they do sell a rear rack seperately

[@videoman876]

Great review. I am thinking about getting the Rev1

[@johngranato2673]

Great video, brother!

[@CraigKurland]

Your reviews are great. Deciding between Revv1 and Beecool Challenger. Only ridden Revv1. I am 6’1” and Revv is very comfortable to pedal because of short cranks. Have not been on Challenger. Which bike do you recommend?

[@chrisb3976]

Ok so I just came across your channel after some years later. The last review video I remember of yours was the HTC Evo 4G!!!!!

[@Deadmare]

I have a complaint about the revv1 the tires suck I poped my back tire twice with in the same month 😢

[@son2soaringeagle]

Yo soldier, what phone mount is that? its clean and it looks like theres nothing holding it lol

[@dha588]

Is this better than the Super73 S2?

[@jtkent28]

Really great review! Well done video. I looked into this bike but my wife and I ended up buying a couple of Engwe M20’s. They were a lot cheaper and seem to get decent reviews. Maybe down the line I’ll pick up one of these though, i like the look of this bike much better!

[@xAbsoluteDarkx]

can m20 speed been unlock??? how fast it can go if it can be unlock....i am looking to get a ebike to commute to work 20 mile one trip..

[@SmokeyTreats]

Walk assist is great for going up stairs/steps.

[@markknight6490]

Maybe I missed it in the video. But what is a good real world estimation for distance in terms of miles on a full charge?

[@jdb2722]

30-60 is the range. Depends on weight, pedal assist and how you are driving it.

[@michalmisio64]

If I buy this model full suspension with a second battery do I have to also purchase the battery balancer and install for it ?

[@jahangirali5306]

I would love to have this bike, looks so cool

[@noliberalismeveragain]

Is that a geared hub motor or is that direct drive

[@ittotaq]

whats the range at full throttle when you're unlocked?

[@trini_boi2414]

I really want and love this bike but the cons have me waiting to see if they would make changes or improvements..and yes that rear wheel should of had a disconnect.. that's one of the cons that have me waiting on the next version of this bike..

[@anddrroo]

i have the choice to buy the ariel rider grizzly, or this and im unsure of what to buy.

[@dottorthomas890]

Bravo . Good Job .

[@jjung2005]

I'm wondering if the rear shock can be fitted with DNM coil over shock style?

[@Campwise05]

Nice video SKB!

Thanks man!

which ones better this or bullet gt for range and ride to work,I work like 12 miles away from my house,what's the most miles you can go on this?

[@CorlaxCory]

Anyone know a good rear view mirror option for this? I just ordered one but want to find a good mirror!

[@plyazcady]

Try the Talaria Sting R

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

That bike looks sweet and has some speed. Have you tried it yet?

[@plyazcady]

@@SoldierKnowsBest no I have not but looks better than the sur Ron

[@DK_Raiders117]

Any specific reason that your phone holder is on the right side instead of the left?

[@grouchydude3448]

No breakaway cable is confusing as to why they would not include it!

[@JACisRAW]

Thanks for making this review! I've watched all the Revv1 videos i could find. Definitely getting the bike soon. I've heard problems with the chain being too tight and chain tensioner right next to the peg placement, did your bike have any of those issues? and how was shipping, was there damage? that was another early issue they had

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

Thanks for watching! My chain wasn't too tight and I don't plan on using pegs, so I didn't look into that issue. The tensioner is next to where the pegs go, but can't say that would interfere without adding some pegs. For delivery/assembly, everything was great except one of the two headlight brackets was broken. I contacted the company and the replacement arrived within two days. Also, I had a pre-release bike and they said they've identified the issue and made some packing changes. I forgot to talk about assembly in the video, but thanks for bringing this up.

[@JACisRAW]

@@SoldierKnowsBest Nice, it sounds like their customer support is very responsive, which is great. I think I’m gonna do it..I’m buying it🙌🏽

Max range?

[@adrinz4870]

Hey man i'm 6ft 260lbs do you think i'd sit comfortably in this bike?

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

I think so. The seat and rear suspension will make the ride nice for your weight. I'm 6ft tall and when not pedaling, the riding position was comfortable and even when pedaling, I didn't get annoyed by not having a adjustable seat.

the Super73 Adventure R would be my first choice but the Revv's price point makes it hard to ignore

[@zaingazi3548]

... oh and did you want fries with that...

[@jpmyles1560]

What I’m not understanding is all the hype about the super 73.. and that bike is much cheaper. From your description and reviews that bike is cheaper and faster. All together much better than the 73. My Grizzly is much better than the 73. So what’s the hype all about?

[@adoho]

I'm just getting into ebikes and I own a Revv 1. I'm making a list of things people who've never ridden motorcycles say about ebikes and wanting a noise for your blinker is now on the list. Do you really think you're going to hear it? Probably not.

[@E-bike652]

Nice vid!👍

[@DashingTrader]

STL Represent

[@MM-mn2tu]

Great video! Let me start by saying that I very much like this bike. Small problems can be very frustrating and detract from overall enjoyment. 1. Chain keeps coming off the tensioner sprocket. Told that the chain was too short from factory and sending me a longer one. Seems unlikely that this will fix the misalignment. 2. Throttle has too much play before engaging motor. Support said this was normal and can not be adjusted. 3. Owners Manual does not include suspension adjustment info. Also incorrect procedure to turn on lights. 4. Speed indicated on the display shows 5 mph fast. 5. When discussing these issues with support, they repeatedly asked for more and more photos and videos to be sent them. No offer to have someone locally assist with the repair and or adjustments. Also no return phone call. This is not a cheap bike and customer service should be much better.

[@petrolo72]

They are using customers for their R&D and not even compensating them, that’s how it is with 90% of all these E-bike companies that have popped up overnight.

[@raulsanchez4718]

I live in Chicago. I would be in fear of someone stealing it from me 😅

[@CONSCIOUS_TALK_ENT.]

Steve just told me that yesterday! 😅 He sells the Wicked E bike. 60 V 20 AH, 39mph throttle and it looks like a black mountain bike.

[@CONSCIOUS_TALK_ENT.]

Based out of Chicago.

[@CONSCIOUS_TALK_ENT.]

1,999$ plus shipping 39 mph throttle. On 26 by 4s.

[@TheGenericAssasin]

Better get a extra thick U lock for that thing

[@Mikep519]

Bro wtf Chicago ain’t that bad foo ! Smh 🤦‍♂️

[@jineom146]

riding in the hood. huge respect. STL isn't a very ideal place to ride a ebike like that/

[@beingthankful4ever]

I would not recommend Ride1up with my experience so bad and specially on their support. My bike is just 3 months old and started having noise issues on the back wheel due to Nipples quality issue. They cannot help with anything and could have covered under warranty but no help. Do not buy guys...Go for the one which is sold at store

[@SuchFinessse]

I’m sorry you had that experience. It always sucks to hear, especially since my experience was the exact opposite. Just goes to show it can happen to anyone. I messed up my motor completely due to negligence, and not only was their text and email support super responsive and helpful, they also sent me all the parts and paid to have the bike professionally fixed. I just purchased another bike from them, and my first has well over 1000 miles, still going strong.

[@zdenkorakitnican6093]

looks small im 6.4 i think it would be too small

[@femacampetiquettefordummie6979]

No breakaway cable on this bike is a major disappointment. I wonder why Ride1Up would choose to leave this convenient feature off of this otherwise great little bike? Nice job on the review!

[@kevinnashskitchen3517]

Very nice job. I'm kinda on the fence about having any bike that goes over 35-37mph or so. I have the Kepler because it just blends in for riding around anywhere a family or older people will be riding normal bikes. Less of that "Karen Factor". Then I have the little 125cc Honda Trail for just tooting around at a faster pace. 50 plus mph will keep up with any E Bikes I've ever seen. And the cops can't take it away 😂

[@Smaug1]

The lack of any luggage provisions out back is kind of bogus. They probably don’t want us messing up the looks of the bike with their brand name on it with a milk crate out back. Then, they’ve made it form over function. Let’s also not overlook the fact that this cost as much as an entry level has scooter that will go 100 miles at 38 mph on one gallon of gas.

There are some that can, especially some with 1000W motors, but for legal reasons I think most companies stick with 750W motors because they can be used in more places if they are not unlocked.
