Inside America’s Largest Active Landslide on my E-Cells Dual Star Ebike

[@compub3ar]

I'm enjoying these off-the-beaten-path tours of LA

[@ConwayCreatorWebDevelopm-oq1ii]

E-Bike Adventures should be a part of this channel along with e-bike reviews 🚲

[@ramborambokitchenkitchen6357]

Absolutely, I love watching his LA adventures and the surrounding areas.

[@NicholasJozwik]

Yes, we need weekly adventures.

[@Eric_Tennant]

Did you say E-Bike adventures. I may have a few.

[@NicksGarage]

I have loved this bike since your first ride on the Five Star. I have a Dual Star on the way. My order should be arriving any day now. Very excited to start putting on the miles. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@chriswarlin6758]

I love taking ADVENTURES with Matt. He don't take NO for an answer. He just keeps on moving to provide us with GREAT CONTENT! Keep it coming Bro. Have a Smooth Day.

[@JBinAZ]

Although I enjoy your e-bike review videos, I like these types of videos even more. Keep up the great job.

[@_LVC]

Great tour, LA. County doesn't wantt stuff like this on the news, because they've known about this issue for 50 years and did nothing to help, just kicked the can down the road

[@grayzelfx]

Very cool, besides a few news blips a while ago I had no idea the severity of the situation. I'd love to see more videos in this style or like the Lake Tahoe trail one when you can!

[@SS-ln3dg]

epic video!!!! thanks for taking the risks to show us up close and personal haha. your personality is the best

[@digitalkiteaerial]

Thanks for taking us along for the ride again. Waiting for my Dual Star to arrive!!! Can’t wait! “Might have already fell off into the ocean” messed up & a little funny. Ride safe dude! And I can’t believe you didn’t get pulled over!

[@agasdoc]

Thanks!

[@TailHappyTV]

Wow, thank you, glad you enjoyed the video, I’ll use this for some snacks on upcoming adventures

[@TerranMetal]

Your video are always so much fun. This one was an adventure!

[@hottamalekid3502]

I've got the Five Star and absolutely love it!Thanks for the range test and tour. I really enjoyed the content 👍🏼

[@travisj.1938]

Loving the adventure man def needs more of these on the channel!

[@michaelstenta5884]

I enjoy these videos immensely. I think you should do more content like this. One piece of info about home on wheels. We owned a beautiful lot on the Currituck sound on the east coast and we wanted to put a temporary home there but we're not allowed. The uppity neighbors didn't want any "riff raff" invading their dominion. And the homes there were only in the 2 to 4 hundred thousand dollar range. The zoning would not allow you to build whatever you wanted on your own waterfront lot. But back to your bike reviews. I have bought 3 different e bikes and your reviews helped me a lot. The first was a Velotric Nomad and the second was an Aniioki A 7 and my newest, a 2024.5 Wired Freedom. Of course the 45 mph bike is my favorite.

[@samwalker3441]

Epic ride on this episode. 51 miles. Fantastic.

[@carlu-dovica]

Nobody would know if you didn't take us there. Glad you didn't get a ticket. 🙂

[@Gordon_Ross]

Maybe it’s just me, but ripping past walkers at 37 mph on a narrow path with a 10 mph speed limit doesn’t seem like a good idea. No wonder there’s a crackdown on these bikes. Love the channel, love the adventures, but don’t scare the little old ladies out for a walk.

[@harken2101]

Im gunna spend 1million plus on a house by a cliff. what could ever go wrong.

[@_LVC]

They've been sliding for 50 years, not like they weren't aware of the possibility, some people live with their head in the sand

[@pepperkimchee]

What's your definition of a cliff? These homes are not built on or by a cliff.

[@jatteam8615]

Great video! What a sad thing for those property owners.

[@travisj.1938]

Another great vid man keep up the great work god bless✝️🙏

[@agasdoc]

Enjoyed your report on that beautiful area. Stayed at the Terranea Resort a few years ago. Hate to see the erosion happening there. But interesting ride and report from you.

[@dereksmith1803]

Paragliders are parachutes. Those were hanggliders.

[@liarus]

Blocking the bike lane but not cars when going to an active landslide path is wild, that's a typical American moment lol

[@Tweak42]

To be fair, the likelihood of bodily injury (or death) from a bike crash along that busy section of street compared to a car is far higher (highest density of injury lawyers in socal). That rough stretch of road has constantly been moving for DECADES requiring ongoing maintenance and repaving, thus the shoulder and bike lane are secondary importance. It's only recently that the slide spread into the neighborhoods.

[@marktmiller12]

I just did a range test on this bike day before yesterday. Gravel rail path all the way, 795ft elevation gain, 55 to 60 degrees temp, using level 1 and 2. The bike made it 85 miles. Completely ran out of power and had to pedal the last 15 miles slightly downhill.

[@perfdavid]

Is it fair to say this is basically the 5 star with an extra battery. As a 255lb dude, an extra battery is appealing and the 5 star is awesome.

[@glynpayne4393]

My screen battery bars disappear at 45%, according to the chart you show. 30 miles covered in mountains on pedal assist 2, left me with 45% E-Cells 5Star is the best thing I've bought in years!

[@KevinAugustt]

What were your volts reading at?

[@wilsongv95]

I used to live in RPV… beautiful area to be especially by the golf course. I hope they reinforce that area. Such a nice place.

[@dailylife3975]

The bike lane is closed but a 4000 lb car can drive literally right next to it that makes absolutely no sense

[@daveyJ213]

Man, I miss riding down there. Been up in the Pacific Northwest for 9 years now. Raining and cold here presently. I'll have to throw my Ecells on to the bike rack this spring, and drive down to see family and ride while there. Maybe Gavin will repair the roads before I come down.

[@TailHappyTV]

funny you mention it, I'm up here in the PNW right now, it's been raining everyday since I've been here in Seattle for the past week... except for one day... which I got out and filmed a 18 month follow up long term ownership ride on the original Wired Freedom I had on the channel, PNW video coming soon 🤙⚡️

[@daveyJ213]

@@TailHappyTV It's sunny right now, Wednesday. Hope you're out. I'm going out right now, before it starts raining again. Keep the great content coming. I really enjoy your "adventures" mixed in with the bike reviews. I lived in the LA area from age 5 to 63, so I know every street that appears in your videos. Downtown was always sort of rough, but it's much worse than I remember as a kid. I remember literally breaking my bike in half jumping moguls in a field where the Fabulous Forum now stands. My brother was with me; I got us home by putting him on the handle bars. Dad wasn't too happy about how far we were from home. He loaded us into the car, retrieved my bike, and had it welded back together. Big fun! My favorite ride was down the Helm's bakery factory to purchase a fresh pack of Twinkies for ten cents. Too much fun.

[@russwoodward8251]

The concern is more about people looting or squatting in the abandoned homes. An interesting tour Matt. Great price on that house. I mean for that area. I would have geologist look at the ground first.

[@Dotarux]

Great video

[@DeeBatch]

I like the new Cam and trail.

[@Poindogindustries]

This was hilarious and cool to see

[@ladyjedi3D]

Thanks for this video. Very interesting. .

[@Photoshopuzr]

I like this bike but I like the AWD King better. just its a heavy bike. Great video, that place looks scary, land sliding around, you just never know when it will all give way.

[@MrBalas3]

Hi Matt, I have to agree with your comment about getting and e-bike vs. a moto style e-bike or cafe style racer electric bike. Wish the Ecell Step Star was offered in a larger frame (only 16”). I’m your height although 15 lbs lighter.

[@Righteous_Judas]

8:43 that’s a weird looking snake skin😂

[@f1dog]

That was one of your best rides. Risky and cool. Definitely ride that area more. Great bike!

[@Glyn001]

You should do that ride more often 👍👍👍

[@kdscrapping4452]

Wired E-bikes came out with a BEAST of an AWD bike , I would like to see you review it with all the strong hills you have around you . They claim it puts out over 6000 Watts of power!!

[@Trailtested]

Sick so did ecells the competition is epic

[@RXR25]

@@Trailtested The E-cells Monstar has 2x1500W hub motors though, which is better than the wired 1000W front hub motor. Plus with how Wired had all those issues with wobbling, which they admitted to and are trying to actively fix, I would not feel safe buying something from them.

[@karlfonner7589]

I like how those little old ladies measured you up. I wonder what they were thinking😂

[@jfly2249]

The Wired bike is 6.7 kilowatts peak vs 4.4 for the monster. The Wired destroys the e cell bike.

[@RXR25]

@@jfly2249 They have the monstar clocking in at 50 mph with software limiter. Its 2x40 amp controllers. The wired bike has a 50 amp and a 30 amp controller, and from what I saw on a review today it tops out at 45 mph. So its not simply about the calculated work. Also from what it seemed, the default settings have the wired bike spinning its tires really easily. Seems fun, but its ultimately not helping it to go any faster and just wasting power if it can't put it down. Either it needs better tires or it needs a different power delivery map.

[@brianjarvis2823]

You probably won't see this comment but... thank you so much for all you do..I love your channel..much appreciated.

Where did you get that battery volt chart?

[@mantasbarkus6862]

[@ericb.4358]

Hmmmm... that "dual Star" looks suspiciously like my E-CELLLS Super Monarch Crown WITH the exception of not having my front wheel motor! In any case Dave Cleveland designs VERY high quality E-CELLS E-MTBs.

[@MaxPayne.vol1]

19:47 Aftermath crazy California house parties...

[@VSlim45]

It's strange to me that anyone would have an issue with someone on a bike checking out the landslide. There is a major landslide going on and I'm not allowed to look at it because I don't live on that street?

[@Tweak42]

It's a very insular, low traffic area and high on robbery target list because of the high $$$ value homes.

[@glynnetolar4423]

It's a special privilege you get with the neighborhood. They want that exclusive view of a landslide it their back porch. 😂

[@pepperkimchee]

Or... maybe residents who are under extreme stress right now, don't appreciate people clearly disregarding the Residents Only signs, trespassing and gawking at the situation. Keep in mind that families still live in that neighborhood and perhaps the filming and posting of videos like this, show insensitivity and probably feels like an intrusion. I wish people would have a little more humanity sometimes.

can you review the ridstar q20

It's funny that people are telling you to stay out of their neighborhood when they shouldn't even be living there

[@EuroYank]

Good point about not living there, but imagine how annoying it must be to have lots of nosy looky-lou's constantly staring at you, some whom are probably looking for empty houses to pilfer.

[@glynnetolar4423]

Adventure seekers? Yes, you too can live in a house that will one day slide into the ocean. How many can claim that? And you get this for a bargain if 1.5 million.

For the people who decided to build on a cliff. I dont feel sorry for yall one bit. In fact i find it a absolutely hilarious

[@johnb1567]

That and the houses on stilts getting destroyed by the hurricanes in Florida.

[@pepperkimchee]

These homes aren't built on a cliff.

[@FreakyT333]

My 5 Star pulls up to 42mph on pas 5 but only about 38 on throttle fyi. If you’re showing a top speed throw her in pas 5 first. That must really suck trying to sell a home on land that’s moving beneath you as you speak. Talk about the elephant in the room…

I'm sure they can afford another home in SoCal if theirs goes under.

[@spawnrcandbikes]

[@lonestartex1]

Upselling So Cal beach lifestyle when in reality it's a complete sh!thole, I worked and lived near all the places in this video, so glad I left CA. $10-20M boardwalk homes just to have millions of people walk past your front yard, or watch your house slide into the ocean... what a joke.

[@will5150]

I was surprised at how poor the construction of the homes are. million dollar homes with cardboard doors.

[@cicada9471]

It's the same here in Florida. Tampa-St. Pete people are about to find out why it isn't smart to build on the beach or pave over the area.

[@moretimethanmoney8611]

Cops look at your bike and think you're a local. They don't mess with the locals out there because everyone has or is a lawyer.

[@Thereminator101]

They should use mobile homes in Florida too...Hurricane? Just drive your home away!

[@CrazyTruckinS10]

How do you sell a house for those pri es, when the whole neighborhood is sliding? Good luck to those people

[@Tweak42]

Not all the homes in the neighborhood are in the currently known slide area. However the utility lines (gas, water, electricity, sewer, internet) are affected and are turned off or threatened in swaths of unaffected slide adjacent areas.

I can't help but get a slight sense of satisfaction that all these rich people who moved to an area where they don't want the average person in their neighborhood are being forced out of their neighborhoods. Mother nature doesn't care about social class.

[@eagle94haslanded]

You literally had 50% battery left. You coulda done the whole trip all over again.

[@KeithLedig]

You have every legal right to travel on public lands. I get that residents can be sensitive to embarrassment or PTSD of the situation of potentially losing their house, or irritation of "situational tourism". But I am a strong advocate for the right to travel and have access to public and private lands (private where you are permitted by the owner.) recall that access to private lands is via public lands. The right precedes the creation of the United States and appears in the Articles of Confederation. The U.S. Constitution and Supreme Court recognize and protect the right to interstate travel. The travel right entails privacy and free domestic movement without governmental abridgement.
