Why I bought the Lithium Super 73 instead of a Boosted Board

[@B犬-l1m]

You’re right. Super 73 and boosted board has drawbacks each. That’s why I’ve got both of it!

[@briandhoward6137]

it's unfortunate they stopped making this model.. Great vlog

[@gshroom]

I own the Scout model and it is so flipping fun! Highly recommend these bikes!!! I'm in Marin and literally go everywhere on mine. No issues so far.

[@stephaniedayrit4145]

After debating on a boosted board and a Super 73, I seriously want a Super 73! It looks like so much fun to ride and I also want to be able to cruise around on it on long rides. I also live in SF, so this would be such a fun ride since it's not common.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Stephanie Dayrit you will love it! I have never regretted it

[@isabelvickery8068]

GREAT Content! I like your style.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Isabel Vickery thanks!!!

[@hanko498]

I just bought the Rose Ave edition of this bike but won't get it til the end of this year. It would be dope to meet up and maybe try yours out. Or if you know of any local store in the bay where I could test ride one.

[@ElizabethSwims]

Sweet! I want one!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Elizabeth Swims GET ONNNNEEE!

[@JedEdelstein]

BradTV easier said than actually shelling out the 1 - 3 grand

[@BradTV_Official]

+Jeddie Boy you're telling me man

[@rohanpatel3893]

The boosted board is meant for places with a lot of traffic like New York. Also if you go to a large college campus it can help you out there to.

[@mixflip]

I want one now...

[@BradTV_Official]

+mixflip you won't regret

[@BradTV_Official]

+Andy hoff KZbin party 🍻🍻🎉

[@guitartec]

If I were the S73 manufacturer, I would be doing everything I could to promote the manufacture of solid state glass batteries. 3-5 X the power capacity, no fires or shorts and 30 minute charge times.

[@spencereng]

Can it go up the steep hills in SF?

[@charafbruhthenx6371]

spencereng yes it can

[@tenloginmusibycwolny]

Can somebody please post google maps link to a place that can be seen in 3:35 of this video?

[@bhlank]

How do you power it

[@phototristan]

You really need both, they're quite different.

[@BradTV_Official]

+phototristan honestly I want both but for now I'll settle for the one o have - 🍻

[@andymartinez1426]

Hey can u do a comparison with your bike and a regular bike 🚴 mountain or beach bike ? I am wondering is super 73 small bike or bigger then normal bike ? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@BradTV_Official]

+Andy Martinez great idea! Thanks

[@suntoryjim]

Cool. The design reminds me of the mini bikes with the lawnmower engines from the 70's. Oh shit I just gave away my age.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Suntoryjim totally! Those things were sick! Thanks for watching

[@NicGoldenEddie]

The eat my dust feeling is... 😎👌

[@rpmbxdj]

Makes me want to sell my bionx equipped e bike and get the super 73! Nice video dude

[@BradTV_Official]

+rpmbxdj thanks man! Love this thing!

[@smerrell1987]

such a great vid!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Shannon Merrell thank you! 👊🏻👊🏻

[@1336kingsville]

I want one for when we go camping ridding around the campgrounds in Florida

[@BradTV_Official]

+erwin snufelguss do iiit!

[@pokemonpocketpulls14]

no headlight?

[@BradTV_Official]

+Jopoy Capulong totally had a headlight. Probably too bright if I'm honest 😉

[@pokemonpocketpulls14]

BradTV oh, thanks. can you please do a night time video?

[@BradTV_Official]

+Jopoy Capulong great idea

[@eishi.kajita]

Nice work!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Eishi Kajita hey I've seen a bunch of your videos - are you bay area???

[@eishi.kajita]

BradTV, I grew up in Marin but live in SoCal now. But I still have family in Marin and in the city so I get up there from time to time.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Eishi Kajita right on man!

[@andymartinez1426]

Good facts 👌 yes I think bike is more safer with big tires u can take any pot holes .

[@BradTV_Official]

+Andy Martinez totally - bikes are easier to ride in general too

[@AlexA-tx3ql]

How likely is it for this thing to be stolen

[@scottchristensen88]

Nice aerial time-lapsed shots of SF!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Scott Christensen thanks dude!!

[@raynellholmes1011]

This is why I ordered the raptor 2.

[@TheR2MN]

at 0:31 who is that white shirt in left corner

[@BradTV_Official]

+Boldo Enkhtur samurai

[@Alex-gu5ei]

Id definately buy one, ive been oggling it for weeks, except for the fact that im in the uk and the restriction is 15mph (and low power) for electric bikes so its not really worth it. Kills the fun and i wouldnt get up the hills round here on the EU version

[@BradTV_Official]

+Akin Jakin :( that makes me sad for you. I wish you the best in all other areas of your life

[@lusenator]

Considering getting one of these, I usually ride my bike to work but this thing looks so appealing for lazy days (I live in outer sunset and its a long ride to downtown!) Did you try the s1 by chance? Curious if the super 73 is worth the extra money, seems like the extra power would be nice for those steep SF hills right? Thanks!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Ryan Luse I haven't tried the S1 but yeah the 73 is probably worth the extra $$. Not sure how the scout would do on the hills

[@str8shogun]

What model helmet? Thanks

[@BradTV_Official]

amzn.to/2eQPRqK

[@jayrod86]

Do you know if theres super 73 shops in sf? I heard theres one on heights but i cant find it when i google it

[@Gertjaars]

What gloves are those? I need gloves like that for when I get my Scout!

[@BradTV_Official]

Fox mountain biking gloves - love them!!

[@Gertjaars]

Thanks!

[@AnantChoxi]

Great video! The mobility factor is a big deal for me especially since I live in NYC. Going to stick with my boosted board, but the bike seems to be really great. Subscribed by the way!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Choxi thanks man! Honestly if I could afford both I'd do it

[@ebikefansfo]

Great shots! We ride the same turf! You bought Brock's bike? His was one of the early deliveries with the glossier paint job.

[@BradTV_Official]

+ebikefan yeah I did get his bike and it's just rad! Let's ride sometime!!

[@ebikefansfo]

Yeah! Would be awesome to meetup for a group ride! I met another cool Super 73 Adventure owner in SF and we've been talking about doing a scenic photo-ride sometime. :)

[@BradTV_Official]

+ebikefan throw me aesaage with your email and I'm in!

[@billete37]

Id get both the board for just those cruises the bike for longer harder and importaner 😜 rides

[@BradTV_Official]

+Erick Rosa honestly both would be siiiiick. 🍻🍻

[@imagineforall17]

How do you lock or how did you lock your bike when you were at the post office?

[@BradTV_Official]

Menard Cayabyab I didn't lock it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ was only in there for 2 min

[@imagineforall17]

BradTV Oh xD, how do you normally lock it when you can't bring it in businesses ?

[@BradTV_Official]

+Menard Cayabyab so you can actually remove the battery. I will usually do that and then lock it to a bike rack. Before that I check to set if they will let me take it inside in case they are super 😎

[@Feedfront]

which city is this? beautiful

[@1nickgodthe]

Justin Y was wondering the same thing

[@BradTV_Official]

+Justin Y San Francisco!!

[@jayrod86]

I have a few questions pls answer.. i love it!! But is it super73s or the s1? Where in sf did you buy it? How is it going uphill?

[@BradTV_Official]

This is the original - from Kickstarter. I don't think they make this one anymore. It goes faster than the s1

[@BradTV_Official]

Goes great uphill, and depending on the hill

[@Loroini]

this looks prety cool especially this wide ass seat in your list you should include 1: you can sit

[@BradTV_Official]

+Memiczność agreed! Nice to have a place for my big 🍑to sit! 😆

[@jonienglish3231]

good Choice Brad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Super 73 Safer to Ride i had a Evolve bamboo V2.0 single motor fell few times , braking fair , Wearing helmet , knee pads , six six one pressure suit .wrist guards legs get tired after riding over 1/2 hr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Joni English cheers! I really love riding this thing. No worries ever - rolls over everything no problem and is just so fun

[@jonienglish3231]

what i might do is buy the bafeng mid drive motor kit and make a electric bicycle ising 2 20v dewalt batteries , readily available

[@BradTV_Official]

+Joni English that sounds wild - send me a link!

[@415s30]

Mine is for sale with upgraded brakes on Bay Area Craigs if you live here and want one now!

[@TonySU]

How do you lock the bike when u go in a store ??

[@BradTV_Official]

+TonySU put a lock around the spokes and frame. Bike is too heavy to carry anywhere :)

[@TonySU]

BradTV thanks a lot becuz there is no way i can ride a boosted board here is not allowed to skate on the street 🇸🇷😥

[@BradTV_Official]

+TonySU oh bummer - yea get a long bike lock. You can also remove the battery so no one can ride off with it.

[@TonySU]

BradTV thnks you

[@samsports92]

How was it to pedal? I've heard that's sorta an issue?

[@BradTV_Official]

+Sam Pilnick yeah pedaling this thing without the motor is a chore. But I've never completely run out of battery so it hasn't really been an issue

[@tekolicious8310]

Nice vid man. Your edits are well done. The bike is pricey. A rad rover bike is half the cost.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Tekolicious I'll check it out!

[@touch415NE]

Dope bike, you should come out with us and cruise around sf, I'm normally on my electric 🛴💨💨💨 smashing around🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@BradTV_Official]

+touch415 dude would be rad!! 🍻🍻🍻let's do it

[@touch415NE]

BradTV send me a email [e-mail] we could exchange #👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@roabueme3433]

Why not an electric unicycle like the king song 18S? 30mph top speed, range 50-80 mi, 46lbs, compact enough to not need a freight elevator or a bike rack for the car.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Ro Abueme now we talking

[@SergeyKasimov]

What about just getting just a bike? Just paddle you get cardio workout as a plus

[@BradTV_Official]

You know, I hadn't considered that. My fat self could use some extra peddling

[@TheFilipinoPhenom509]

What kind of drone are you using?

[@BradTV_Official]

+Paul Rickert DJI mavic

[@loicvandurme8253]

Have you checked out the Backfire galaxy ? In my opinoin this thing is way better then a boosted board ...price is 499 😱

[@BradTV_Official]

+CrunshPuppy Z snap - haven't!

[@jeremias3461]

Check out the Meepo board instead

[@alixarmour]

Woooooow!!!!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Alix Armour yeeeeaaahhhhhh!!!!!

[@Aryan-ev8bs]

It’s not as portable as a boosted board

[@djcaleb3674]

Style way cooler looks like every bike

[@madsnissen4492]

What is the name of your backpack? Nice video

[@madsnissen4492]

👍🏻

[@brooks3577]

You deserve way more subs bro

[@BradTV_Official]

+brooks 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@gameworkerty]

Another drawback is negotiating bike lanes with heavy bike congestion, you don't get to go fast with an electric bike

[@BradTV_Official]

+Chemtrail Dreams true - sometimes I jump on the road depending on car traffic to beat those bike lanes 🎉

[@gameworkerty]

BradTV yeah I hear that, I have a RadRover myself. Fat tires + shocks, fenders, lighter frame and cheaper... but maybe not as cool looking

[@BradTV_Official]

+Chemtrail Dreams right on I've never heard of that I'll have to check it out

[@namelessvermillion8188]

1 year later, two things that are faster, cheaper and lighter than that bike, are the *Raptor 2* and *electric unicycle's* not hating just saying.

[@aeroneflores412]

Dude, you really comparing an E-Bike/motorcycle to a Electric longboard? I'm glad you love the decision but they are too separate entities. One is freaking 52 pounds and the other is 15 pounds. Very different products

[@BradTV_Official]

Aerone Flores of course they are! Both great ways to get around a city though. Hope it was somewhat entertaining!

[@901cali]

i was thinking that too e-bike vs a electric longboard.

[@billete37]

Jermaine Ellis its a fair comparison as someone might be trying to see what fits them best, id get the board and the bike later on

[@NoName-xe2gf]

You are correct on this. But I think he compared it because they are both electric. As well they are near the same price.

[@akadanielmaia]

I would considerer the comfort factor, those big tires + the sitting position make it more comfort for short rides, which is what this thing is made for considering its range. I want one, but I want to see some quality upgrades before I considerer buying one, the frame and the mounting quality is not close to high end, being steal and having everything exposed, plus I would like to see an adjustable throttle control (motorcycle style) thing that cheap electric scooters already have and a better motor (or at least a motor that is mounted firmly, because this one is all over the place, few bumps could take it off. Not to mention the laughable warranty given by the manufacturer considering the price and level of complexity of the product, it should be at least (at least) one year all things included in the warranty.

[@ivanbarron6613]

i think i might have saw you i was riding my boosted board down university in palo alto

[@BradTV_Official]

+Ivan Barron oh awesome! Flag me down next time 🍻🍻

[@dfreshness2006]

@0:57 not a situation I would want to be in that close to a car.

[@lovelycars1]

Is this a joke he put the link to music and not the link to purchase the bike...

[@philipfjordside1300]

ye well both of them is completely out of my reach the boosted board is 2000$ and the super 73 is 3,200$ like its absoloutely absurd

[@BradTV_Official]

+I Do Clickbaits ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@namhoang6569]

they're different things, so you cant really compare them :/

[@pdr9999]

One answer: Evolve carbon GT

[@AnoahWang]

Yeah I would agree to disagree. That looks like a shitty kid bike

[@TM-qk2yy]

Anoah's Daily Videos lol it was based off a taco mini bike so of course it's gonna look like a kids bike

[@astriverofstrengthandknowledge]

Cool concept but the look of it just turns me off. I'd rather stick with a BB.

[@BradTV_Official]

+Justin Okoh yeah they aren't for everyone but I sure love mine!

[@esk8spirit362]

Why are you comparing two things that have nothing to do with each other in any way, shape or form? It's like saying 4wheeler is better than snowboard... You high Brad?

[@IcemanSam650]

bay area guy ehhh

[@BradTV_Official]

Ehhh or ayyyyyy

[@IcemanSam650]

I see what you did there lol. Do they still sell these? I can only find the newer models :/

[@BradTV_Official]

I think you'd be lucky if you could find a Kickstarter bike for sale - people love these things! They still sell the super73 but it's the most expensive model.

[@Sid_Arthur]

hi brad come to sushi

[@BradTV_Official]

+Sid Parihar hi Sid great to internet with you. I cannot come for the waves are too good - eat many roll on my honor. Know that I will be rolling on the waves and thinking of you....

[@ien2023]

It looks like he trash that bike. Should should clean it more often. The money people spend to look cool.

[@moe5541]

It's nice but the price is way too high. Luckily China makes copies of this bike for half the price :D

[@Adeft]

what is it called then?

[@MrJoeblofromidaho]

This has the potential to be the new Vespa.

[@BradTV_Official]

[@10laws2liveby]

Wait till you get something caught in that chain sprocket. Then you can tell me how safe it is.

[@BradTV_Official]

[@__BERSERKER__]

LOL. $3,000?

[@ganeshgavara]

Bike is nice but bad comparison in every way.

[@briandhoward6137]

Nice vlog Brad, I'm thinking of getting the 2018 super 73, but top speed is 25 .. I wonder if they will offer gearing for more speed in the near future.. I have a boosted and love it, some days the super 73 would be nice.. Also I agree they are sick looking.. I sub your channel, hit me back with a sub if you like my content..

[@BradTV_Official]

+Brian D Howard 🍻

[@briandhoward6137]

BradTV can you swap gearing to get more top speed

[@BradTV_Official]

+Brian D Howard I'm not sure I'll have to look into it. Bike doesn't come with extra gears or shifters

[@kala2480]

Haha you wasted so much money when you could have just gotten an evolve skateboard, same speed better range and a thousand dollars cheaper

[@Lexsheraton]

Your video is like comparing an iPhone 7 to a PlayStation 4 then complaining about how a PS4 can't make phone calls. If you're gonna make a comparison video, compare apples to apples.

[@raphaelrehman]

Boosted boards get 4-5 Miles of range lol

[@chandlerscott6745]

Knock off Casey neistat

[@BradTV_Official]

+Chandler Scott yeah Casey, knock off bro

[@901cali]

I would much rather have a boosted board!

[@BradTV_Official]

+Jermaine Ellis I can't blame you they really are awesome

[@dougwebb917]

Its better than a Boosted because its faster 28 mph, longer range 25 miles to 30 miles, more comfortable to ride, all terrain don't have to worry about small cracks in the road. The bike is heavier but so is the boosted and nobody wants to carry the Boosted board. The only draw back to the bike it is double the price of a Boosted, but the Boosted is over priced any way so might as well go the extra mile and get the bike.

[@dougwebb917]

I just found out they are not legal in NY

[@jeremias3461]

Why not both?

[@dougwebb917]

If you have the cash sure but with a bike like that I wouldn't even bother riding a Boosted so the Boosted would just sit some where and collect dust.
