RIDING MY SURRON IN LA AND IT WAS .. INTERESTING

[@JohnHicksFilm]

SHOULD I POST MORE 30+ MINUTE VIDEOS

[@AAlvarez14520]

Yes plus maybe add some drone shots would show a pretty cool perspective

[@Jrchivas99]

Fkk yea bro

[@Yazeem04]

Hell yeah

[@fazenoscope7207]

Yes sir they entertaining asf 🔥🔥🔥

[@ogsgamingchannel6728]

Yes bro I love most of your vids even when you go live on twitch I'm loving these new ebike vids hope to see more of you trying out other ebikes

[@leonlovelife2109]

As a disable man, I can go around like you so it awesome watching your video to experience what I can not do. Thanks

[@JohnHicksFilm]

Glad to help

[@JoeMammaBff]

Actually there is a few specialized companies that make 3 and 4 wheel recreational electric vehicles for paraplegic and disabled people.... You should look into it. Got my 40mph electric scooter lock cut and jacked at my last job a few months ago but currently in the process of converting my old scooter formerly 100% rusted and fully restored with the chameleon green to copper to orange color changing paint and I can't wait for the kit to come in. I recommend finding a way to enjoy the fun things in life. Life is short and fragile.

[@hellooohowareudoing]

I love how humble this guy is. 1.12million subs but no flashy intros, no loud music, just riding and observing!

[@midwestjuan2263]

We don’t got time for intros,he is original no bs around.

[@jw6180]

Agreed!

[@roberthall9464]

That is because he is buying subs in 10k blocks every month or so. Easy to look that up on statistics site. Mr. Beast, Logan Paul, MTV, they all buy subs to trick people into thinking they are popular, and since people are followers, not leaders by nature they start to follow (but it is still in small amounts compared to the purchased subs). I am not downing him as I like his content but the number of views and subs are provably false which imho tarnishes the true value in his fun videos. I guess a guy needs to make a buck but damn people you can be loved and make good money with only 20k subs!

[@Blizzard117]

@@roberthall9464 for this guy it might be true, but people like Logan Paul and Mr. Beast have been around for many years, and have consistently been getting millions of views per video.

[@roberthall9464]

@@Blizzard117 Yes, but they started off buying and still buy today. Me Beast buys 100K a month in subs! I work in Advertising and we have tools average people do not have to see what they are doing behind the scenes. We use these tools so we are not paying millions to advertise to bot accounts! The Rock has millions of subs and followers but only has a 14% engagement ratio. Mr. Beast has a8% engagement (7.89%) so we would not be interested in paying very much to advertise with him. KZbin knows this and assists in helping top performers keep those bot accounts which is why they do not delete them. From an IT standpoint it is easy to spot and delete a bot account, but then Mr. Beast would have 400k real subs or less as even I do not know anyone who subscribes to him in the media industry lol. This is what Elon and Twitter are arguing over right now. In fact, Truth Social took so long to get up and going because they had to create millions of bot accounts so when people joined they would get followers to make them feel wanted. These are all old carnival tricks in modern technology.

10:57 what you’re here for

[@thehaze4041]

What a ride man! I literally felt apart of the city as you rode! Thank you so much!

[@johnbmueller]

I still don't agree with this style of riding... either it's a bicycle or motorcycle... you can't disregard and disobey common traffic and safety laws such as riding the wrong way on a one-way street, cutting through parks, grass and pedestrian walkways and ignoring traffic signals. It's riding like this which will bring more laws and enforcement to the PEV industry.

[@movieguy40]

Calm down Karen, its non riders like you that don’t know how to ride that bring more laws and enforcement to the PEV industry.

[@xxGravyBabyxx]

calm down my guy. John Hicks riding compare to NY fixie riders is by far better. John is being cautious and overserving while riding. It isn't that bad

[@johnbmueller]

@@xxGravyBabyxx That's like saying, "Bill isn't a MASS shooter... he only kills a person at a time who he doesn't like... it's not like he's taking out a classroom" Laws are laws and carelessness like this is what brings more regulation.

[@jakeofalltrades8589]

Jumps, wheelies, stair bombin, sidewalk mobbin, and babes…. Always 😂😂😂🤷🏽‍♂️

[@VRGalaxy_762]

That chick at @8:42 totally reminded me of Angelina Jolie in the movie Hackers, back in the 90's!

[@edmundkim7884]

Nice ride man, like the new bridge and the cool tunnel, keep on Rockin!! 🤣✌

[@cuetolorenzanaomar239]

10:45 a lo que vinieron c;

[@androsmilenionful]

Thank you ,Buenos kulasos.

[@bazjr86]

Cheers friend

[@VRGalaxy_762]

Some of the architecture in LA reminds me of the city in Cyberpunk 2077. Keep up the great vids!

[@riepowers8682]

8:17 bro started emoting 😂

[@randoggerk]

That bike looks like so much fun.

[@sectv4025]

chill ridin dwon d streets , love yor bike bro!!

[@thehaze4041]

“Off a good one!” I’m gonna use that one!

[@leecryptopian]

Superb John. I go my 2022 Sur Ron this month and wow I thought i'd be happy with it. I'm already spending money on it lol. My mrs was mad saying it's not worth it. Guess what, she now wants one. GREAT content man

[@jimbennett2795]

Dude Get a little fold down rear view mirror for the left side. It will open a whole new world of what's going on behind you, and most of all when you can brake hard. Great video

[@markmurphy9280]

Awesome, Thanks for the tour of L.A :) Mark, Cambridgeshire, U.K

[@zachfpv4493]

The stock pads are one of the first things you want to replace because they suck compared to sintered metal plus any pads will wear out pretty fast because of the extra weight of an e-bike

[@Justiinn02]

15:34 happy dad truck lmao…W

[@codekillah]

man ive missed these videos SO much!

[@donnytucker]

That looked like a super fun ride. So many skate spots I saw that looked so good. That handrail at 8:07 is amazing. Although i'm now at an age where it may hurt to try it lol.

[@ELECTRICBIKEDIYLIFE]

If I'm in the back seat of a car going through big sweeping turns I get dizzy but not if I'm in the front seat. You know a little wind noise isn't that bad, it gives the videos a more natural feel. It sounds similar to actually riding and having the wind in your ears.

[@ExploringTheUnknown1]

What up Hicks!!! Lets go with another banger brotha.

[@fahadalraess3398]

i love how every vid he rides the SUR RON theres always eletric soccters just laying around

[@Ileezy_]

Ayeee loving the content homie

[@ray.e8293]

10:45 Do not feel guilty, you have done what we would all do, you have to appreciate the beauty of the earth 🌟🤌🏽

[@xylonon3]

Not the happy dad placement at 15:34 lol

[@da9856]

Thank you for the 30 min vid 🙌🏽🔥

[@heatvisuals]

HEYYYYYYYY NORTH SIDE LONG BEACH IN THE HOUSE!!!!

[@rabfallon4507]

25:47 Your passing the Mike Miur mural

[@thehaze4041]

Aww what a beautiful day for a cruise, “what the hell, was that a PILE OF BLOOD?!”

[@ianlineskate]

john hicks upload? its a good day B)

[@jw6180]

I hear ya on supply chain (and also labor issues). I’ve waited for 3 months for my Ebike. Finally, eta is next week!

[@chrisc6162]

a tip for curbs just put ur whole body on theback of the bike and dont be heavy on the bars the front wheel goes up and then lean forward n lil throttle youre good

[@StrugeLabs]

Your belt sounds super tight brother. Huge surron modifier from Texas here. If you are ever down for some rides here let me know!

[@da9856]

8:48 bruhhh 🤣🤣

[@ezsteev63]

Damn! I didn’t know you can go up steps with that

[@Johnny2Gats]

I miss riding my bike through the city. I grew up in NH and we would take the train into Boston just to ride around the city.

[@wbr0103]

I’ve been loving the new electric bike vids but I miss the bmx vids. Will we see a couple in the near future ?

[@silvana2186]

This is more interesting than watching a movie

[@SkateboardingNow]

4:50 famous skateboard spot

[@nickalderman5943]

these with 17s, Street tires, and a 72v conversion are sick. I'd love to see you ripping a 72v 50Ah 20kw setup. Go 17/44 gearing and just fly

[@GrandmasterUV]

Awesome you bought a Surron bro. I bought one too

[@Mossyftb]

Is there a way to see how long I've been subbed to you? I think you were my first ever subscription. I followed you when you started your channel riding BMX & now I'm obsessed with these Sur Ron videos

[@TalksWithMichaelYoung]

10:24 Hix: What's up dude .. Hes going fakie in a wheelchair And he was technically going fakie in a wheel chair 😅 🙏

[@angelflores7420]

Local: describe LA in one sentence. “Where you don’t stop at red lights you just go, just go” if that ain’t the truest statement 😂😂😭 FRRR

[@user-eh5cr4or6k]

Hey dude you do know that riding a bicycle on the sidewalks in the state of California is a very expensive proposition if you run across the wrong law enforcement officer and if they do ticket you and you go to court they will look at it as though you were driving a car on the sidewalk trying to plow people down

[@clearsailing7993]

You have to many rules and regulations in California. You need more freedom like we have in Detroit.

[@benschlotte8242]

Exactly in Detroit we can sucka punch fools in the head putting them in comas and when we are caught by the popo we get taken to jail, fed, and released after 24 hours without bail… yo’ it’s soooo dope!!

[@alexpronti9789]

Also he says first cop I've seen, when he's on the bridge but he past a undercover in the bike lane prior, blue expedition with spotlight and bull bar

[@downhillminion6534]

Yesss to rippin on the ebike more videos!

[@jimmyp2625]

How many miles do you have on your Sur Ron? 2022 right

[@xdx1990]

Man your city looks like a nice hotel. I'm from Montreal and its so depressing in comparison, especially since we have shitty winters. pot holes everywhere, and there's a million construction zones/detours

[@xdx1990]

**minus the homeless tents obviously** forgot to mention this part lmao. we have that too but not as much.

[@siegelsdad]

Is it legal riding on stairs & sidewalks? Your bike is essentially a motorcycle correct? Assume you wear a helmet based on the speed? TYI

[@Ionthegreat]

i have to be honest, i love the e bike videos, its way more chill

[@jessemoors4335]

You can bunny hop a dirt bike you have to compress the front shocks then throttle up while doing the normal bunny hop actions you can bunny hop anything with the proper torch and front compression

[@mrambo3218]

entertaining video actually lol

[@voidwareprohibited]

You obviously live in DTLA. You can stop trying to convince us that you don't. You even say so to the cops in Long Beach on your SurRon.

[@edgarparrish3457]

Love DTLA

[@scottyi88]

Man i want to get a Sur ron but aren't they illegal unless you get the pedal conversion kit? my other choices are a super 73 rx, onyx rxr , or a plum motorbike. I live in DTLA btw

[@StaggerProductions]

11:00 Who would throw so much plastic in the street? 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@someoneonyoutube1993]

Overhere everything surpassing 15,5 mph (25km/h) must be droven on streets and one needs a license for it. For the money (starting eur 4600) I rather buy a Honda CRF110F FOR ONLY EUR 2700 way more stronger, faster and more fun. Ebikes are horrendously expensive.

[@Enrique-peralta]

If those laws didn't exist and you could use the bike infrastructure at 25 mph would it be worth it? Is it just the laws that suck not e bikes

[@robr8a23dogg6]

NORTHTOWN !!!!Jordan Panther...

[@aog8202]

Great video, have you experienced any trouble with police while riding around? I wonder how much trouble a person would get on a Surron. Thanks

[@MD.ImNoScientician]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ogsgamingchannel6728]

Have you tried the S73 ebike yet ? I just saw a vid on insta of it and are you able to ride an ebike during a rainy day ? Like would it damage the ebike I really would love to invest on an ebike one for cargo

[@Enrique-peralta]

S73 sucks for the price compared to other bikes in the same price range

[@LimerGDrem]

really fun video man.. city looks cleaner too! (scratch that just watched the skid row part haahha) Reminds me of old Hicks explorations. Just an idea... maybe do a patreon of uncut rides with all the fuckery and rawness?! just throwing it out there

[@johnmitchell7074]

Ride on dude

[@username6265]

DAMN, this looks like so much fun!

[@homeboyrockstarforevermike7830]

Wow is that the Alamo at 8:22 I swear watching his videos time Flys.

[@josephgroll6815]

That lady was tough walk in front of traffic

[@nonyabizz3533]

It was like a glitch in the matrix

[@shawnpahl]

It’s almost like every traffic law is broken within 60 seconds lol

[@jaboriswilliams9043]

There’s a rideout tmrw we meeting at the staples center u should pop out

[@DC-ih8bv]

In NYC if you rode on the sidewalk those pedestrians will mob beat you..lol. Nice video.

[@elely1973]

What model bike you riding ???

[@6oclyy]

keep up the good work

[@graysenaber8019]

Hey John really like the ebike just wandering if there’s a website and how fast the one you have goes?

[@paulmclaughlin4016]

ive got air horn on my eltric bike hi viz vest on

[@viperdemonz-jenkins]

helment and ride safely would be a plus.

[@bermudezeg]

Dman haven’t seen your vids in months! Now your on electric. ain’t the same as you peddling and the way you move

[@Soullify]

can we get a su ron in san francisco video?!?!

[@nicknick5219]

Hahah… goes to inaccessible place… says: I swear I don’t remember this being accessible

[@kracksmith4ejm1]

12:06 what did you edit out, i like too see. don't cut out anything

I think I’ve seen you ride past my mattress store in silverlake ! Hyperion/Rowena

[@carlosbolanos5361]

What happens to the bmx ?

[@tuguybear930]

I would have cancelled the order. They lie about the delivery time to get you on the hook HOPING you wont cancel.

[@dbot1018]

you should stream on twitch and upload highlights or extended clips

[@YeaItsJr_Talks]

Man seen that cake walking around in that orange dress and forgot how to act lol

[@jeremiahdaluperit4026]

I grew up in Huntington Beach by Edison High and just about everyone that asks me where I'm from and I tell them they say oh God your from a bad part of LA lol

[@Scuba_Bro]

The neon color is on point! 👍

[@bigfil]

I think I know which new ebike you are gonna get. Mine got delayed until next month as well. Thing is, they offered different colors to me at least.

[@treysuhr44]

Which one?

[@swin.117]

im thinking luna eclipse because i was going to get it and it got delayed, ended up getting an Eahora X7 and put on Bmx handlebars

[@pcgarbage]

That guys off the good one 🤣🤣🤣💀

[@marks-0-0]

im a big fan of electric mobility and all things electric but i dont understand why you think its okay to ride what is in reality an electric powered motorbike on the pavements. would you ride a small gas powered dirtbike in the same way? do you justify it because e bikes are quiet?

[@geacamangaboc]

Union Bank- i had a GTA V mission here :))

[@Gamer_4Life.]

Very cool.

[@clearsailing7993]

What's the top speed of your bike?6
