Super 73 RX review: the best ebike is back!

Shop Super 73: bit.ly/SUPER73RX ($100 OFF!)
The Super 73 RX is one hell of an electric bike. It checks off so many boxes for what makes a great ebike in 2020. Great range, suspension, removable battery, comfortable seat, the list goes on. Really cool to be reviewing this 3 years after I reviewed the original.

Stoked to see this review from an OG! Thx for the support.

[@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.

[@loranti1]

*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.*

[@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!

[@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.

[@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

[@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.

[@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!

[@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 !!!

[@harrisonkl]

Great video as always! Super informative with outstanding edits.

[@spicypretzel7616]

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

[@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.

[@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

[@73ingie]

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

[@ericm8811]

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!

[@johnsonhipona]

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

[@volarex4178]

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

[@markdiaz5237]

Thank you for the review, very informative! 😊

[@elekid330]

YES!!! Super 73 is growing strong and steady exceptionally fast I love my super 73

[@markru2]

Nice to see a fellow NY resident demo a new ebike

[@scubawithatuba]

Stellar review as always, Sam! I love my yamaha yz450 but this little electric bike looks like a freaking blast!

[@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

[@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'

[@Grof142007]

omg i been subbed for over 3 years... that video was like yesterday.....

[@wyattkurt9177]

Love this bike so much! Wish there was something that good looking but cheaper.

[@alphizzons9]

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

[@supergrendel]

Would it be possible to re-located the battery pack to either the underside of the top frame tube or even vertical?

[@krousaj]

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

[@TheEVside]

This bike looks epic great review and vid

[@sirchefTV]

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

[@dennisdownes9319]

Great review and I love the helmet plea!!! DD

[@karimalameddine5092]

Thank you so much! definitely to consider!

[@stevenheck6352]

Awesome review man great work ! Have you tried riding the bike just as "a bike" let's say when the batterie is charging, can you still ride it smoothly ? Go up a hill for ex ?

[@MrKashmir2394]

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?

[@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

[@PistonsProps]

I checked their website, but didn’t see it. Any thoughts on buying a 2nd battery to really get some range out of it?

[@oyen11]

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?

[@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?

[@andrewnguyen7364]

Always enjoy your reviews Sam, just wish I could take the hit to the wallet!

[@j_smooth9007]

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

[@goyya888]

Nice review, thank you.

[@AdamiIAm]

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

[@owenh770]

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

[@LM-ch8rh]

Hi. I'm 5'3" and 120lbs. Is this something a smaller person could handle as far as height and weight of the bike? thanks.

[@DiveHard]

Awesome! Some interesting red strangeness going on in the top right hand corner at 2:43

[@akdrumster]

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.

[@MattEpicAdventures]

cool review !!! love the bike too !

[@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....

[@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.

[@ebiketees5923]

Awesome review!

[@spaztekwarrior]

Nice! How tall are you for reference purposes. Is this designed for shorter, medium,’or taller sized adults?

[@drumstick4901]

Very informative. Thank you

[@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

[@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!

[@parkerrex]

This is a great video Sam. Keep making awesome videos. How do you edit out the stick at 4:54?

[@robertpolicastro1]

It’s a special camera I can’t remember the name!

[@playloud00]

Thanks. but how do you raise your seat?

[@adderkay]

How do you program it to do 30mph? I just ordered mine!

[@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

[@mintrelmark7957]

Himiway Escape have dual suspension as well

[@prierimus]

the elevator part. love it!!!

[@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??

[@richardrivers25]

I love Super73 except few details like motor is broken and I wait for replacement for 2 months and before that display was broken. Love my subpar73

[@rowanneville8365]

Would you choose between using your electric skateboard or the super 73 if you had a ride one everyday

[@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?

[@thebluethunderbunny2324]

What’s the volts and AH on this bikes battery?

[@iLLWiLL173]

What helmet are you wearing? I dig that it's low profile 👌..great review btw but I can never afford this bad boy... might pick up an S2 or S1 in the near future 🤞

im hoping to move by the beach this year and im thinking about getting this for cruising at the beach

Everyone: awesome review, I cant wait to get one, so much fun, etc Me: can you do a wheelie?

[@quentintaroncher74]

lmao random question but where did u buy all of the pants in this video? they're quite nice

[@vidong1704]

What license do you need to ride it? It's over 750W, right? What about registration and insurance?

[@arunikacandramawa5384]

Is this bike still operable when the battery is off?

[@nadiazero7]

I love your helmet and goggles. Where did you buy them? What’s the brand?

[@slimey831]

Looking to buy an e bike right now im seeing whats out their. How much does this costs?

[@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?

[@stanc521212]

nice seeing u yesterday at sticky rice!!!

[@Plewit1967]

As always Sam, excellent- comprehensive review. Re: the battery- what kind of power source is required? Does it come with its own “brick”?

[@samsheffer]

yes it does - and thanks!

[@lekikelekona9809]

So how are this better than the onyx rcr and huck cycle stinger?

[@MRInuzaki]

Yo the rx is so cool, i have an s1 and once I move to w bigger place plan on buying and rx

[@RogerFingas]

Have you done any special puncture-proofing?

[@stephendavis6261]

what’s it like to simply pedal for any distance?

[@wordyx]

can someone pretty please tell me what helmet that is at 00:08? I need something more low key than my Shoei. Heck, what helmet are you wearing too Sam? Rad vid. Love my RX!

[@terfagbaa2581]

How comfortable is the super 73 for a 6.3 ft person ?

[@dirtvolt0]

I was looking all over for a review like this. Super 73s are the best!

[@Kubrick789]

Curious to know the brand of your helmet ! The design is cool :)

how is it compared to fiido m1 pro ?

would it be smart to buy this bike in very rainy regions?

Theo original design just looks sooooo good though.

[@johnmartins0522]

Gotta ask where you got those grey plaid pants, they're dope

[@XenoverseTester]

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

[@InCircle]

Whats the maintenance cost for super 73 ? lets say over a year ?

[@kmag7122]

dose anyone know if you can get it in the UK guys let me know thanks
