Freego X2 Electric Dirt Bike Full Breakdown - Complete Parts And Features Guide

[@E_bikeDad]

Which part of the Freego X2 are you most curious about? Let me know if you have questions for my next review!

[@bhoff7365]

Thanks for sharing. Learned a lot about my X2. Love the bike.

[@E_bikeDad]

Glad you enjoyed it! Have you disconnected the brakes?

[@ronbrown4551]

Thanks for making a really great video. My bike is due to show up here one week from today. I got it on Amazon. I was going to get the extended warranty for 2 years but I started checking into it and it just seemed like it was from a different company and I didn't think I trusted it. So hopefully I won't have a problem. I checked the other day I still could get the warranty but I don't think I really want to mess with it.

[@E_bikeDad]

Glad I could help!

[@Maverick098-m5b]

Good info. Tip: Easier way to get it out of park is just tap the brake

[@E_bikeDad]

Only if the sensors are plugged in

[@Maverick098-m5b]

​@@E_bikeDad true. No reason to unplug the front sensor right? Ok to only unplug the rear?

[@gmanhad]

Can't wait to add this bike to my collection. I ordered it 2 weeks ago, so hopefully I won't have to wait to long. It also looks like I'll be receiving version 2. I don't see any info on the website about the differences between v1 and v2, but I'm glad they're fixing any issues.

Thanks for sharing great video!! And looking forward to more vids. I’m on the fence for purchasing this bike for my 15yr old son.

[@E_bikeDad]

So before you get this make sure he knows the laws on the road. All the videos of kids getting in trouble on these are from them breaking simple traffic violations. The biggest one is riding in the opposite lane and blasting through red lights. This bike is fun, but it is fast.

[@bennyvazquez3547]

@@E_bikeDad for sure much appreciated!! Thank God I live in a Golfing community so the local police have a high tolerance. On another note I’ve watched a few more of ur vids and love the positive vibes man!! Oh and if I may offer you friendly advice on wheeling.. try using one foot down and the other on the peddle. I know it will not help with the throttle response, but it may help you keeping a balance point for longer.. Keep writing man and stay safe.

[@greedyg76]

You are correct about the light mount. Also know that there is no voltage step down for the head light, it runs at full battery voltage. The headlight actually sucks because it projects a small tight square of light out front, there is no spillover to help see the edges of the road. So if you want to replace the headlight with a 12v model like I did, you will have to get a voltage stepdown. I mounted the step down inside the frame neck where all the wiring connectors are, plenty of room there.

[@E_bikeDad]

thanks for that info I'm probably going to do that cause the light does have a tight square beam.

[@gamesva1887]

Спасибо за качественный обзор! Классный байк! В мою страну поставляется с названием syccyba x21 sport

[@E_bikeDad]

Yes Freego is the US rebrand of the x21 Max

[@HOODSTARSPRODUTION]

For the display look up the x21 display I have that and I can get into the system by holding the plus and negative buttons at the same time and I change the power on each gear 1-9

[@E_bikeDad]

This one doesn't have any buttons the new x2 pro will

And one more question... these brake leverss feel big. You know if thetes a way to switch them out for levers for smaller hands?

[@E_bikeDad]

I don’t think the levers can be swapped. I been thinking about cutting them shorter.

[@lancesmith1908]

Hey is the seat long enough to carry a small passenger? Could add some pegs to the swingarm for short journeys?

[@E_bikeDad]

Yes I carry my 6 year old with me

[@R45iD3L]

great video thanks for sharing it! Trying to understand about when you said you almost wiped out in the dry due to the tires - could you elaborate on that?

[@E_bikeDad]

Awesome I’m glad you like it with the knobs on the tires if you turn at a certain angle and you’re giving it power, it will lose grip if it was a street tire you would have more area that would stay gripping the street. These off road tires with a lean the knobs on the end actually start bouncing the back tire and it slides a little. When you have some speed, and you’re turning with a good bit of lean on the bike.

[@R45iD3L]

@@E_bikeDad ahhh I get you now - I don't have much experience riding with tires like that - but thanks for the explanation I get it - if I got one of those I'd definitely have to switch them to a street spec, maybe like a street tire that had some tread on it for like rain.

[@joshfosho]

thanks for this. hardly anyone has these yet still and this covers alot. im still in the air between this and the talaria xxx i know its a big price difference but the hub motor to mid drive is the biggest thing. would you say this hub motor has alot of torque as well and i understand you mentioned you cant wheelie but does it feel powerful enough to be able to?

[@E_bikeDad]

@@joshfosho I think it has enough to wheelie, but not as easy as the bigger bikes. You definitely have to help it with a good preload. The problem is as the battery declines. You definitely don’t have the energy to get that front wheel up. I’m working on my next edit where I did a full rundown. You seen that video I talk about how the front end won’t come up at about the 50% mark. if you’re looking for something to go little faster and have a little more power than a regular bike that everyone else has also kind of cool. This is a good one. But if you want the range with the bigger one. I got this one because it can paddle under its own power in my state if eBay goes over 28 it’s considered a moped by law. You don’t have to get a motorcycle license, but you have to get a moped tag which is basically a small license plate. But mine can operate with petals. It falls in Gray area.

[@joshfosho]

@@E_bikeDad yeah the pedals and looks of this one are what really got me but as you mention I have seen that about the power and I definitely would prefer a bit more but still. Great info and will keep in consideration as well

[@user-bg7vn4de5u]

Great informative video.. One question.,,Is this bike NOT okay to use in the rain.?… Keep up the good work 👌

[@E_bikeDad]

The motor is sealed so you could technically ride in the rain. But electronics and water never mix well so I’m not chancing it.

[@user-bg7vn4de5u]

Good to know, as I’ve just purchased one, and waiting for delivery 🚚, but forgot to look 🫣 into that pretty important bit of technical info.!!. And I live in Manchester, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿… it’s sort of wet 💦 here even when it’s not.😲🙃😆,, Ah well, looks like I’ll have to do a little bit of after market weather proofing just to be on the safe side.. Thanks for your reply though.👌👍

[@geraldf9651]

3:08 my chain was slapping on that frame there too, so I put two pieces of gorilla tape where it was hitting and it seems to work

[@E_bikeDad]

They also have a chain tensioner that helps with the bottom if you go look in my wheelie video, you can see it on my bike and I think there’s a link in the description

[@Maverick098-m5b]

Not sure how youre getting info like those brake sensor wires and stuff but plz let me know if you can figure out how to change the display kmh to mph. Origibally it was mph but somehow switched to kmh and customer service went silent w this question

[@E_bikeDad]

I have no clue I thought the new ones couldn’t go to KPM

[@Mark-qv4bn]

I'm wondering why there would be a problem getting brake pads? That deters me from wanting one. How much was the shipping and tax? I recently bought 2 new ebikes, from the biggest dealership in the USA. I could get brake pads or anything else in 2-4 days or immediate help on the phone. Im almost 67, and I want an electric dirtbike. Soon. Not if i cant get servoce or parts.

[@E_bikeDad]

Check my channel I did a video on brake pads and where to get them.

[@E_bikeDad]

[@dottorthomas890]

Grazie mille. Meglio avere queste informazioni prima di comprare

[@E_bikeDad]

Your welcome

[@Maverick098-m5b]

Is there a way to put risers on or whatever? To make handlebars sit higher. I heard there's something like that for surrons

[@E_bikeDad]

You would have to get a taller stem than factory

[@kingqueen27]

I have the X21 MAX and would like to search for the display as it has no controls. Can you help me with that? Do you know the model of the display?

[@E_bikeDad]

I don’t no the model number sorry. I don’t know if this display comes with controls. I saw someone in the UK had made a video on the x21 max and they had a control pad

[@blagh52]

Do you know if it’s water resistant? I ordered one but not sure if I can ride in the rain.

[@E_bikeDad]

I’ve seen a lot of stuff on the Internet Internet, not this bike in particular but we’re just talking electric bikes in general and I’ve seen a Suran go through a creek three times and still operate. I’d say if it starts raining while you’re riding, you might be OK. Worry about the battery connection at the bottom because this bike has the battery connection on the bottom instead of the top. Most of the other batteries have a connection on the top and that’s where I think you would get a short. I’m not brave enough to ride in the rain. I did get caught when it was raining and I just pulled under a gas station cover once it stopped. I took off riding again.

[@corywebb5537]

How many amps is the controller pushing?I can't see it on there

[@E_bikeDad]

The model # says 80A

[@josephlee2980]

Do you know how to cut the speed limiter wire sir

[@E_bikeDad]

There is no speed limiter wire. The controller is programmed to max out at 50MPH and it can’t be reprogrammed.

[@4514rooster]

@@E_bikeDad is it possible to upgrade the controller to get a little more power?

[@E_bikeDad]

@ they built a custom wire harness so you can’t change anything unless you repin the harness they built. The controller itself can’t be swapped cause of the custom harness.

[@burn1gotbeats]

they should make this bike a single gear

[@E_bikeDad]

Yes cause it’s really for show

[@dlpcaddy]

I like that best of both worlds pedalling for exercise and the ability to rip around

[@burn1gotbeats]

@@dlpcaddy the gears make the chain & derailer slap a little I think with one sprocket would eliminate the noise and you could still pedal it but I do understand if you like the gears . This is a fast bike I can’t imagine the pedals functioning properly unless you’re at a slow pace after 20mph it’s just ghost👻 pedaling most likely lol unless you put a huge front sprocket ⚙️ on it. That would be probably a cool upgrade especially if you like to pedal a little bit.😎 .

Wish I could get this in Canada

[@E_bikeDad]

What they don’t ship to Canada

[@Sam_splatter]

I also hate the seat. It’s uncomfortable and angles forward so you’re constantly pushing against the handlebars to stay back on the seat. Wears out the shoulders after a long ride

[@E_bikeDad]

I think the seat would be an easy fix for the company if they just made it come out closer to the battery and thicker on that end too. I’m thinking about bringing it to a local car upholstery shop and getting them to make the adjustments for me.

[@Sam_splatter]

@@E_bikeDad yeah they kinda screwed up with that one. I’m thinking of even getting a shorter rear shock to bring the seat down a tad. Nice video. I’ve made a few vids on this bike as well. Great tip on the front brake. I ended up getting the angle grinder out for mine 😂

[@E_bikeDad]

Dude, I’m just noticing your profile. I definitely watched all your videos on the bike. I’m sorry to hear about the crash you had. It made me think about possibly getting some extra parts to have on hand. I’m about to release the one I made on my top speeding range findings. It came out kind of like an ADHD edit. I was trying to get as much riding in before the hurricane passes in my area.

[@Sam_splatter]

@@E_bikeDad nice! No big deal on the crash. Gotta break some eggs to make an omelette 😂 Looking forward to your results!
