This channel is a true testament to how I will watch anything presented by Toycat

My favourite parasocial crush got an ebike!

[@Nooticus]

So valid tbh

[@KingEvolved]

Electrical engineer here, be careful leaving it plugged in for too long, batteries have a failsafe to not overcharge, but sometimes those fail. If the failsafe fails, the battery will explode Lol Just plug it in the night before or a few hours before you plan on going anywhere :)

[@VinegarPotato]

3:10 I love how you said Reccomentioned, I'm stealing that :)

[@gregorydittrich1563]

Omg. I can't believe the e-bike is back

[@kevincronk7981]

no clue if this is the case for ebikes because if it's designed well this can be prevented, but on many phones if you leave it plugged in when it's already fully charged, that will slowly damage the battery over time, so leaving your bike always plugged in may be reducing your range over time

[@Ithimidbia7199]

A cargo bike seems to do a fantastic job as being a car replacement, I’m getting a bakfiets soon. The main issue is that most people who are able to drive a car wouldn’t be comfortable riding a bike in the middle of the road, even less people who aren’t able to drive a car, but my county council seems to be leading the other three county councils in my county in building bike infrastructure. Still really slow though.

[@davisvoelzke8011]

Cargo bikes aren’t useful in the rain lol

[@holygooff]

Wearing this thick coat in the middle of summer is very London. :D I'm actually interested in a bike like this. I drive a normal bike, but a small electric bike that is cheap as backup would be nice. I'm going to look into it.

[@zacurrya9485]

Title idea: "Can a cheap E-bike be a car replacement?"

[@realfangplays]

I will just say that poor battery quality can cause a huge threat to life so I wouldn't cheap out on an electric. Though I am not sure if 500 is reasonable enough of a price.

[@Foxttellio]

I love how toycat is doing non minecraft stuff now too, its kinda nifty

Now? He's always done them lol.

When's the video on the riots

Im in the US and bought an ebike, saves me so much gas money here. I'm upgrading mine to be more of a war machine (It goes 25mph, but when im done it'll be 40-50 hehe)

[@Maebbie]

they gave you the free bike hoping it would end up on the toycat channel lol

[@Clan501-Scotland]

So does this bike work fully on throttle?

[@RobDEV]

E bikes and such are nice, but where I live (a small Swedish city/town) I just prefer walking

[@kevinhargrove3836]

i got a fold up one like you off of temu for 298us dollars from hi vent. i can go about 30mi at 20mph.

[@somerandom4731]

ANDREWWWW im curious did you end up opening an account with vanguard!?! If not what brokerage do you use !!!

[@Fiddyscent]

Crazy that people call £500 cheap 😂 I bought a modified one for around £300 and I felt like mr Krabz I guess it’s all about perspective some people are ok with paying more 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Ithimidbia7199]

Considering it’s being used as an almost complete replacement for a car I’d say the value is pretty high

[@rafciopranks3570]

What's wrong with traditional bikes

[@Lukey-D]

@@rafciopranks3570 e bikes are much quicker

[@wafity]

I hope cars become replaced by much more greener solutions! We need to stop carbon emissions!!!

[@davisvoelzke8011]

How will rural areas work then?

[@wafity]

@@davisvoelzke8011 they won't, since humans always find ways to destroy the environment

[@rebeleksde7642]

​@@davisvoelzke8011 this is a very common counter point that you could just google the solution to but @wafity is not talking about a total car ban, thats simply not possible. Rural areas can be improved though, more train stations and increasing the frequency of buses could push people to not use a car for long distance travel, yes they will still have a car for local travel. Improving the safety of these rural areas for bikes would also encourage people to try a bike for short distance travel. All of this is cool but rural areas are not the first target, upgrading local and intercity travel for denser areas is much more important as they have way more people.

[@Roadhog360]

Yes I am in full support of walkable, bikeable cities! Next I hope your country does away with the dumb "you can't own an escooter law". This seems like a holdover from something else. Do you know why you aren't allowed to own an escooter?

[@AndrewAnd]

They're worried about having to revoke permission and/or require a license and insurance later, so they're using third-party companies as the gate keepers right now

[@Roadhog360]

@@AndrewAnd Kinda makes sense, but it's strange that that applies specifically to e-scooters and not e-bikes.
