The FUTURE Of BMX! * Titanium Electric BMX Bike*

[@chimerabmx]

So great to connect with Mike for this video! I love talking about bikes so feel free to comment with questions. Also check the links here on our KZbin channel for loads of info about the production model we have available for pre-order - Austin

[@ssl7986]

exactly what im looking for, its just I wish it could be cheaper!

[@847lifestyle]

future is looking good mates

[@lizzw4216]

I’ve been waiting for a electric bmx bike so this is awesome

[@chimerabmx]

We're excited to get it out there, and proud of it. Check our links for more info.

[@MrPeter924]

Great sounds bike ride great show

[@kirkwickham3336]

Austin makes a great rep for his own company! While I'm turned off by the extra weight, it's a very cool design! Be interesting to see how one holds up when Mike puts it through its paces on the streets and in the park.

[@jonathanbaile2080]

I am stoked someone finally is making this,I'm 43 still ride I'd love having this bike I'd probably ride it to work daily 😁

[@JohnnyPrimeCC]

Awesome! I can't wait for this.

[@jsbmx2039]

I want that. Bike was sick

[@rayskiblagblagan]

Hey mike whos the fastest the paradox kinetics or this chimera e bmx

[@chimerabmx]

We have more power and a more efficient drivetrain. So, all else being equal, we should be able to gear the bike to beat any speed that the Paradox can achieve while maintaining roughly the same torque. Happy to put it to the test.

[@rayskiblagblagan]

Ok ill wait for the nxt vlog top speed e bmx parodox kinetics vs e bmx chimera

[@keam210tx]

Curious on the durability when dropped or jumping curbs/stairs over time. Even just a check up after a few park sessions…maybe some flowy trails

[@MikeFede]

That’s something I will be showcasing for sure once I have one over my way. The plan is to take it to the trails and ride it on the streets and put it to the test. Be sure to stay tuned for more videos featuring this bad boy soon.

[@anthonyrios1949]

How fast can it go

[@hawaiianpunch6534]

Needs a cruiser version with a shock seat. How about an aluminum frame? Can you mount it on a 27.5 Ripper?

[@kimoarmstrong3519]

Finally an e-bike I'm interested in. All other are not my bag. I'd commute this!

[@MikeFede]

Yup! You definitely could commute this. Yea, not every bike I post up or review will be for everyone, but that’s good, everyone is different and I like to showcase all things cycling so people from all walks of riding can come to one place anything bikes🤘🏽🤘🏽. I’ll have one of these here to ride on trails and skateparks soon🤘🏽

[@jasonmarshall7983]

If the first production run of 100 works out are you planning on doing more next year I mean I could just see it taken off as much money as I've spent on Old School BMX bikes 5300 sounds like a deal to me I'm just wondering how long the battery will last as far as going up and down Hills and all that good stuff

[@chimerabmx]

We plan to make more and expand if all goes well. It will likely be a while before we make another batch though. I really hope it takes off! As for the battery, it should last a while as long as you treat it well.

[@LoLErMan13]

Zooz ebikes IMHO.

[@extremejoker3535]

all that and we didnt see you ride it the way a bmx is ridden ,is it capable or does it ride like a tank

[@chimerabmx]

Hey brother this is an important question for anyone claiming to be selling an electric "BMX". In our opinion, if it's not practical to do basic BMX tricks on a bike, then it's not a BMX. If you check out our KZbin videos, you'll see Nate Richter, Ryan Mills, and others easily 180 it, Ryan Williams and Dusty Wygle backflip it, Andrew Chin doing rocket manuals at 30+mph, and Alex Gonzalez ripping it up at a skate park. Mike actually 180'd it and was doing manuals but the lighting was terrible so we didn't get good footage. The bike only weighs 35lbs all-in, with the weight dead center. And if you take the battery off, the bike only weighs 29lbs, which is the same weight as the Sunday Model C 24". So it's not much heavier than other BMX bikes its size, and is extremely lightweight in comparison to other electric bicycles. At 3800 watts, it's also drastically more powerful than anything else its size.

[@kadenjamison2812]

That’s a lot of custom in one bmx. I am interested, but need to see more on it

[@chimerabmx]

Feel free to check out our social media and all the details on our website and Indiegogo. All the links are in our bio.

[@xpndblhero5170]

When R. Willy and Mike Fede meet.... I bet Nitro Circus would love to have some of these¡! 😁

[@MikeFede]

I believe Rwilly will have one soon for the shows. Innovation with a writer meets innovation with Bmx and that is something I love to see.🤘🏽

[@xpndblhero5170]

@@MikeFede - Yeah I bet a lot of people would like an electric bike that would be capable of what Nitro could throw at it too.... Their name on a Chimera special edition would be an awesome pairing too, especially on a marketing level. 😉😁

[@danielshuell6312]

40 has gotta feel so fast on this. even as a commuter transportation method is pretty neat.

[@jasonmarshall7983]

Is there any other info on KZbin or on the net that I can look up the specs for this these bikes?

[@chimerabmx]

Yes! Check out the links here on our KZbin channel. The Indiegogo campaign is here: www.indiegogo.com/projects/chimera-electric-bmx-bicycle-ebike/x/27069818#/

[@michaelduran7862]

Scotty cranmer needs one of these

[@Cjbmxes33]

Been dreaming for this for years tf🤯

[@phj420]

Would love one with my spinal fusion i could ride bmx easy. Only thing the bike needs is a old school Mirra seat

[@chimerabmx]

The possibility of throttle-on-demand bikes like ours helping riders get back out there is something we're really excited about.

[@phj420]

@@chimerabmx can not wait to see more riding with this bike

[@jasonmarshall7983]

Okay quick question how long will the bike last before it needs servicing IE magnets or battery pack that's my main concern is what would a battery pack cost when it goes bad? Or does it even have a battery pack mainly I'm wondering what's what will need to be serviced first and what's it going to cost down the road I'm definitely interested in pre-ordering one of these though

[@chimerabmx]

@@jasonmarshall7983 Hi Jason. Great questions. Our warranty will cover you for the first year on all parts against normal wear and tear. The primary wear items on the bike won't be the battery or the motor. Those should last quite a while. The most likely thing to go first would be one of the smaller parts on the motorization system - specifically the sprag bearings or the GT3 belt (we actually haven't had a problem with these yet and we've been running the bikes for over a year now). These are affordable ($40 or less), easy to replace, and readily available from us and other vendors here in the U.S. As for the battery - a new one is pricey. Ours is around $500. But it's durable. The very first one we ever made is three years old now and still running at a fairly high capacity. The fact that we use high quality Molicel P42a cells and meticulous pack construction helps. Please feel free to follow up. Happy to chat about any of this.

[@willsmooth45]

Let’s fckin goooo

[@jasonmarshall7983]

What's up my brother I just had a quick question are there still bikes available for pre-order are you getting close to the 100 limit ? I've been thinking about this bike and I'm still interested in possibly pre-ordering one do you need all the money up front? Thank you

[@chimerabmx]

Hey brother thanks for reaching out. We still have some pre-order slots left, but we have a deadline approaching that we need to meet for manufacturing for this round of pre-orders. So if you want to get a bike by next summer, you should order soon. We offer Affirm at checkout on the website. That allows you to split the cost into payments if you need. Feel free to hit us up on the website as well.

[@echterjay]

Omg I need this 😮

[@lilbeviltwin]

Been wanting an electric bmx. Thought of adding an electric motor on my fitbike.

[@jasonmarshall7983]

What size rims?

[@chimerabmx]

24" 32mm width.

[@duranryan967]

Bro I’ve gone through video after video looked on your Facebook Instagram EVERYWHERE…. WHAT KIND OF RANGE DO THEY GET??

[@MikeFede]

Soon I’ll have one in hands and will be doing a full review🤘🏾

[@blakelee119]

Shout out Nate Richter for his review he did on this bike

[@adamsifford6228]

Full titanium I bet it's 5 grand.

[@chimerabmx]

@@adamsifford6228 The titanium and motor are super pricey but we were actually able to get it below $5k including shipping for our Indiegogo.

[@rlanesports]

These are nice but really expensive. For that price Id be expecting to go around 50mph on a pev. I dont do any jumps or grinding so I'm going to convert an XP Lite with BMX handlebars and a Turtleneck Folding Stem and call it a day.

[@user-eb6vo1iw9j]

I'm in bro's, totally sickness now let's see a 24 and 26 ... The SHOW BMS @ SRP n TDalles ..

[@chimerabmx]

The bike in the video is a 24"! It's the best balance between maneuverability and stability at 35mph+ speeds.

[@jaewardtattoo]

Would be great if you could get julien molina on one of these.... He only has one leg

[@MikeFede]

I have some of him he said was cool to post. I will post them up tomorrow. 🤘🏽

[@co1urzz]

just in time for Odyssey to refuse to produce 100+ PSI tires for 24" anymore, UGH

[@chimerabmx]

Good tires for 24" are scarce. Fortunately, we have a good 2.3" tire we'll be using for our first 100 bikes (see photos on our Indiegogo), and a manufacturer of high psi 24" folding tires lined up when our volumes are higher.

[@847lifestyle]

damn

[@demonik224]

if he made it in a 20 or 22 inch and made em 180able it woulda been a day 1 buy for me

[@MikeFede]

This is 22” and I filmed a 180 on it but the footage was a bit grainy with how dark it was. I’ll be putting it to the test with 360s and whips too when it arrives 🤘🏽

[@HANUMAN7454]

Looks awesome but the pricepoint is really just way 2 high. U can get Titanium bmx frames from 800$ to a rack and a half. So it should be more around 2,500. I could maybe see 3k..4300 tho yr tripping...Gonna have to w8 for some Asian Homies to make one overseas so im not payin this L.A. middle man price or just buy a Surron (which honestly has alot more power right out the box) for those kinda numbers.

[@stacybuchkowsky6376]

USA made sweet ..20.22. 24.

[@Alexandr_Silver]

The ammount of moving parts next to the groin give me an anxiety attack. Idk just looks like it would grind half the body if your clothes are a bit on the loose side and get sucked in.

[@chimerabmx]

Haha unless you're 3' tall the moving parts won't be anywhere near your groin. The clutch/drive is below the knee.

battery on the down tube would lower COG a lot.
