Super 73 RX review: the best ebike is back!

[@CK9C]

Eyyy great review bro! My RX arrives today after months of waiting! 🤘 Hyped!!

[@samsheffer]

comment after you ride!

[@tinongnjong1305]

Wow, ordered my R since August. Super63 just keeps postponing the ship dates, so curious to k ow how long you waited

[@CK9C]

@@tinongnjong1305 I ordered my grey RX at the end of August, finally got the first ride in yesterday and it is so much fun! It weighs so much and as a fixed gear I struggled to pedal with no assist, but those pedal assist modes come in clutch! Now to get some accessories like a mirror!

[@Theboricuany23]

Were u riding in jersey last week?

[@dabcomedynetwork4526]

So worth the wait

[@chadmccann9654]

Oofff 80lbs! I'm in a 5 story walkup. I have the rose ave edition, but I need to eat a handful of senzu beans after I carrie that thing up 5 flights of stairs.

[@samsheffer]

This is one of my favorite comments ever.

[@philipparkes2982]

mind blown that people carry this up 5 flights

[@RonMillar]

Thanks for your review! Caused me to order TWO of them! I tried to get the discount but it didn't work. I've emailed Super 73 and let them know your video was part of the reason for my purchases.

[@budsnotduds6118]

I’m a kid and I have no money for this and I’m planning to get one over the summer. I love this channel cause you get to unowned what your buying before you buy and you get an inside look to every thing. 10/10 would recommend

[@KittyK.]

If you are a child, then you should just cycle, with your own strength. And not through a motorcycle. You're not retired.

*Works great my **Latest.Bike** I have a bad knee so I still get exercise but the bike assists me. I am a big guy so I didn’t think it would go as fast but it works great.*

[@miguelramos6375]

Dope review Sam. I've been riding the RX since August and its been a blast. The accessibility it provides has definitely opened up NYC for me.

[@spicypretzel7616]

I'm here after Cody Ko mentioned this bike in his podcast, I now understand the hype !

[@jizzdogs]

My RX arrived on time after 8 weeks pre order. 1 month in and 600km later - absolutely love it. Strange compression noise from the motor which im currently finding out and problem solving with the customer service team but aside from that very happy..doesnt effect my riding but is a bit noisey at times up hills at 40kmph!

[@thomaspaddick4659]

I was just about to buy this bike. Perfect timing.

[@leaky999]

Damn you must be rich

[@adamcang4683]

@@leaky999 mountain bikes cost way more so most people are buying this for convenience in a city. Rich perhaps, sensible more likely

[@YoungFilmmaker]

Your videos are always incredible bro! Your filmmaking style is so inspiring to me as a 16 year old young Filmmaker and I will be getting my RX this week!

[@MrEddieNunez]

The grey with neon green looks so sexy. The biggest difference for me coming from the S1 has been the battery range, top speed and comfortability with the new suspension. What I do miss from the S1 is the torque.

[@ter3360]

Awesome review Sam. I've ordered an s2 so minus the rear shock but still the same motor etc... One issue is their delivery times 'uk'

[@SteveVar_traxnyc]

i own a S2 and it looks like the duo suspension is highly needed. if you can fork over the 3k please upgrade to the RX, dont make the same mistake i did.

[@Raconteur3]

You still regret it?

[@mattfiedler278]

It’s a nice bike! I feel like it’s not the “best bike” though. There are a lot more options now than there used to be. No hate. We as consumers are getting lucky though with a lot more options from Monday motorbikes, Ariel Rider, and Sondors. (Edit: also adding the Sur Ron and Onyx RCR. Haha thanks to the posters that called me out for forgetting them)

[@samsheffer]

have you ridden an RX? Which of those 3 should I check out?

[@LeoCarrasco24]

Also check out the Huck Cycles bike, looks promising.

[@mattfiedler278]

@@samsheffer Super 73's are iconic, haven't got the opportunity to ride the new RX series though, so my opinion may not be the most informed. I feel that Super 73 was a bit ahead of the curve in styling and performance, kind of like (even though I hate to use this comparison) "the Apple" of the E-bike world. Competitors are starting to catch up a bit though. The price to range/speed always gave me pause on the Super 73, I bought an Ariel Rider X-class (albeit with a 750w motor and not 2000w) but can get up to 34 MPH in like 5-7 seconds, front and rear suspension, and have range of 25-35 miles depending on PAS. And, I got it for roughly $1,400. Super 73 is more polished and has that customer support and based in the US which is the justification for price I guess- which is great, especially if you don't want to tinker. The two bikes I have my eyes on are the MadMods from Sondors and the Anza from Monday Motorbikes. Honestly would love to see you compare these with the RX when they finally release next year! Keep up the cool content- electric transport is awesome man. Ride safe!

[@mattfiedler278]

@@LeoCarrasco24 Awesome veteran owned shop, with almost too much customization! Huck Cycles look dope.

[@AndrewNicholsSeattle]

@@mattfiedler278 your motor on your Ariel Rider X-Class is 1500 W peak power which is probably why it's comparable in speed. 750 W is just the nominal power.

[@volarex4178]

I’ve owned the RX since August. Put about 1,300 miles on it thus far. Absolutely amazing bike!

[@LotharRadscheid]

THX Sam, awesome review as all your videos, loving your live chat try to join today evening . OMG i want this bike now. You are a cool New Yorker !!!

[@AuthenTech]

im digging that dual suspension 👌

[@speedyboi349]

Me too As a dirtbike rider this can make a huge inpact in stability and overall frame peformance

Hey Sam Sheffer! Thank you for the review of that fine city cruiser ebike! I have been riding the Bulls monster E fs which is a Bosch mid drive full suspension fat ebike for almost a year in the mighty north shore mountains of Vancouver British Columbia Canada for almost a year now and I love it! I blast up and down jagged rock strewn logging roads and mountain bike trails! I suggest you try the same! More ebikes is better! Ride ride ride!

@Gun Fun the Chinese also built our railroads, America probably wouldn't be what it is today without China.

[@JeremyToh]

In Australia, it's cheaper to get a proper motorcycle than one of these, plus our silly laws have not been updated so we can only allow 250W motors for the bikes. All the Super73 here, are sold with restrictions on the motors. Come on Australia! This is 2020.

Excellent review, honest and to the point. Keep up the great work 👍

[@johnw65]

Thanks for the video! S73RX is a vast improvement over the S and R series! I want a C1X...! IMO-TRUTH, S73RX is a bit overpriced.... Competition is fierce... AR Grizzly SPANKS IT ! ! ! Their ONLY bike with dual suspension... S and R series = All Hardtail... Brake Rotors are thin and tend to warp if you live in hilly areas. Replace cheap Brake pads @ 200mi intervals!

[@akdrmr]

great review Sam & I like the bike, 'cept not keen on ridged seat one cannot adjust. I currently have an Aventon Sinch & looking for a comparable or "more powerful" (non-foldable) bike.

Now is it all about the weight. If someone was 150lb can you go more then 30mph ???. Just being curious

[@johnsonhipona]

Nice job on the review, Sam! Rock On!!

[@Sn0wman5]

It‘so stunning! Unfortunately in Europe there are so much restrictions and you definitely can‘t ride it here without pedal assistance. =(

[@Andrew-pw2sy]

They sell the handle bar and throttle on its own so EU customers can install it themselves

[@mistert800]

in Europe you're limited to a 250W motor max, unless you register the bike, get CBT, a number plate and insurance.

[@manFromPeterborough]

@@mistert800 we have the same shit laws in AU, fingers up to the authorities, I put a throttle on and derestrict to 35kph on my cheap Fortis, a Fortis speed video was found and I used that info to program the parameters, not just top speed, wheel size (speedo under reading) was 20", the 20x4 tyres are actually 22", reduced the start up strength, made the PAS more sensitive 3/12 rotation

[@TheEVside]

This bike looks epic great review and vid

No onyx is insanity! $3000 isnt sht lol

[@khrisstake2210]

What, you ain't got 3 grand for a bike lol

[@selendile030]

Can you change the throttle setting from the bike itself or ONLY from the app? (Can I put it in unlimited mode from the bike?) not going to lie, if you can only use your phone....that’s a deal breaker. I like the assistance an app brings, but I don’t want my bike to be dependent on it. What if it dies? What if I lose it?

[@manFromPeterborough]

phone dependency sucks

[@kouaher8255]

How good is the pedal and seat? Is it easy to pedal? Is the seat comfortable when you’re on the bike for a long time?

[@12vLife]

How much better offroad than the ZX? Same tires as ZX? Good on soft sand roads? What is the the most powerful charger you can charge at? Any way to charge the battery with a solar panel or 12v?

[@j_smooth9007]

Great vid Sam. You should come to one of our s73 group rides east coast.

[@coffeejj00]

I remembered when I saw the S1 I was in love and said I was gonna save to get one and never did, now... this Rx... I want one so bad....

[@Nikospap7]

Hello Sam thank you for the great review! We are looking forward to an S2 model test so you can say pros and cons between these 2 guys!

[@kmag7122]

hi sam I am in the UK how do I get one what's the best place to order from let me know thanks

[@srrtbb]

Ok, have you ride a surron and a small motocross track. It was bad ass. This is cool too now with full suspension. Now that it has suspension you can get less wide tires like 2.6-3.0 plus size tires and save more batter and accelerate much faster.

[@Avitiq]

Ever thought about reviewing the onyx RCR?

[@Txb4g]

Serious question: what is this bike for? I wouldn't dare to leave it outside while running errands, too easy to steal. So you just take it out for a fun ride and go back home?

[@MattEpicAdventures]

cool review !!! love the bike too !

[@quartzimaging]

Why is the battery mounted above the frame bar instead of below the bar? It would ride better with a lower center of gravity, or am I missing something?

[@sirchefTV]

Wow nice bike. Super helpful for me in going to work hope i can have one in the not too distant future.

[@alphizzons9]

Great review! More RX footage please! Range test in throttle only in both mode 2 and Unlimited mode?

[@krousaj]

I also live in NYC and I highly recommend that you review the Emove Touring electric scooter as its a blast to ride!

[@markdiaz5237]

I have the same exact one and loving it but mine only reaches top speed of 20 mph on either pedal or throttle 😢 Is there a way to increase the top speed of 28+ speed??

[@kiddoxnyc]

First video I'm watching on the iPad Air!!

[@landofahhs_1]

Ok, I get it...hard not to feel your enthusiasm :) The Super 73 looks and rides as cool as it looks, but I didn't see any hills or dirt and gravel roads in your demo either. Where I live the nearest blacktop is a two-lane highway almost a half mile away over roads of dirt and gravel that reflect the weather rather than welcome a bike tire. I wonder how the 73 would compare to a taller framed ebike with full-sized fenders in an environment devoid of concrete and blacktop?

[@altr.]

Could you do a review on the Jeep ebike?

[@MrAndrewAu]

sorry I haven't ridden one but isn't the center of gravity too high with the battery mounted at the highest point? I understand they did it to make it look good, to like where a motorcycle gas tank is

[@jukephotography8378]

You should join us on our super73 NY rides!!!

[@dbr550]

How tall are you? Do you think it’s too small for someone 6”2? The wheels look kinda small but it’s hard to really tell!

[@MrRedAlexander]

I always wonder why bikes with square frames don't put their batteries in the middle square of the frame and not on top like this one does. You get a lower center of gravity, can put in a bigger battery, and free up that top area for mounts and water bottles

[@BGR_33]

For the cosmetics!

[@HeyTommiChill]

Looks so good but sheesh the pricetag!

[@AdamiIAm]

Nice review... Can U mount a front or rear rack on the Super 73?

Hey! so i want an e bike for getting to and from school, but theres a "canyon road" that is fairly steep. A ten speed could get up of course but since this is a single speed, I'm wondering, how this does on steep inclines, and for how long?

[@owenh770]

How light does it feel? In comparison to the old Super 73 and just a normal mountain bike

[@syawkcab]

What do you do with the bike when you get to your destination? I'd want to be sure nobody would steal it, but it looks too big to lock to a standard bike rack

Is this bike still operable when the battery is off?

[@robertcroix]

What helmet & glasses are those?

I'm thinking of getting one even though I don't live in the city. It's pretty cool. I was wondering, what if you want to take it with you to go road trip/travel, have you tried mounting it on your car?
