I have a friend that owns an e-bike. As a shade tree mechanic, I became that person's e-bike mechanic. In my servicing, repairing, and test riding that bike, I've gotten interested in using an e-bike as a source of exercise other than my treadmill. I have heart failure, so when I'm done exercising, I'm done. Which is why I hadn't bought another standard bicycle or go on walks very often. I stumbled on your channel researching e-bikes and your energy, format, and showing the ups and downs of each model has me watching all of your videos.

What kind of range do you get from the wired with regular riding, and do you get any ghost pedaling?
@aganzul5 ай бұрын
@@Daniel-tj4fz For weeks I never went through even a single bar of energy. But I felt like I wasn’t getting everything. Top end was about 33-35 MPH. I wrote the company and they were prompt and told me that in the settings I was running CH5 at 4. For full power I should put the CH5 at 10. I did, and zowie! Up to 38-40 MPH! Of course I started going through bars. So, I think I can get about 60 miles on a charge, based on guesswork and past usage. But it might be 40 or 50 if I keep the settings at CH5 -10. But, the factors to be considered… I’m 211 pounds, I’m in Florida and the heat reduces the battery effectiveness. And, now that I have experienced the big rush, I’ll probably put the CH5 back down to 4, maybe 5. I only drive about 20-25 MPH, and don’t need the speed. I’m perfectly content with a lower speed where I can enjoy the drive. That all said, every day gets better and better on the bike. Compared to a conventional bike I can go twice as far, twice as fast, with half the work. And, yes, I get easy ghost peddling. I love to get up to 20 and just roll the feet lazily around and feel the bike just coast. It is easily the most fun I have ever had on a bike. Al

After you try a 60v bike, you will never want a 48v bike again. After you try a full suspension e bike, you will never want a hard tail. Wired really has THE bike and the price is ridiculously low considering the alternatives. Wired should really raise their prices until they can catch up with demand. Some complain about a $250 shipping charge, but lowering the price by including shipping at this point might push the wait times out to six months. Anyone on the fence should order soon as the factory can only make so many units annually and the new model is just now being delivered in mass. You can always cancel if the reviews are bad or something more appealing comes to market before delivery.

I think they are trying to market the bike at the $2k price point. That’s probably smart. If they included shipping they need to make it up someplace. There is also shipping insurance at $75+/- bucks. Don’t like it, but get it. It’s money either paid in the list or the total. A business can’t operate at a loss.

10 seemed way to jerky for me, I settled on 6. Also, 10 seemed a little unsafe because sometimes you can kick on PAS unintentionally by slight movements of the pedals. Having that twitchy of acceleration when stopped for a passing bus or say near a steep drop off on a trail can put you in a spot to not have time to stop yourself before disaster. I found a better setup is the 6 setting but having the throttle setting on max all the time for when you need those quick bursts of acceleration.

I can tell you this fact right here. If it’s a moped style 20 inch wheel ebike you will not be able to pedal it without power. You’re pushing those. If it’s a normal size bike or fat tire one it’s not too bad, just like riding a regular bike with some added weight and very doable

I had an eBike for awhile. There are several things to consider before buying one. First, there are serious safety hazards with riding them in traffic. Second, the batteries are not cheap and will run you around $400 a year, and repairs are expensive. Third, if you live in hot climates, the batteries can tend to overheat and leave you stranded. Other than that, they are a blast to ride.

Do not tell a private bike shop that this bike goes over 28mph otherwise they will not touch it because of liability concerns. I got my black one delivered on Monday & this bike is an absolute U N I T! It won't really fit in the bed of my 2019 RAM LIMITED. I'm 5 foot 9, 185ish pounds and this bike will run you over if you're in front of it. I assembled it myself but somehow got the derailer cable tapping on the rear wheel spokes (chain got knotted up) 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️.. Wanted a bike shop to fix it. One said because I didn't buy the bike from them, they can't touch it. Another said because it goes over 28 mph (I was running my mouth about the bike) that he can't touch it either. The second guy told me how to. Went home and did what he said. It's fixed now. I was kinda upset that they only shipped me one charger when I paid $50.00 for a second one because I hope to get an extra battery in the future. My bike came with a few chips in the pain. They aren't noticeable. For some reason, the Tailhappy50 discount code doesn't work anymore. I'll do a whole video on my wired freedom on my channel possibly this weekend. I've said enough, gotta go shop around for a shop that will fix my wired freedom just in case something bad happens.

I finally decided I wanted to settle for this wired freedom. After lots of research. I dont like that they charge so much for shipping. It doesnt cost $300 to ship an ebike to Seattle. So I call today at 3pm pacific, and lady picks up, I say good afternoon, how are you, she says good what ya need.... (oh ok shes busy.) Well I wanted to ask if you guys offer a dis"NO." Oh, I wanted to ask before I was interrupted, I wanted to ask if you offer a discount if we purchase 2 bikes? She then waisted no time, "no no no no. We made upgrades we see high tarrifs (china), we didnt raise the price!" Needless to say, man... i had $4800 dollars in a cart, and I simply walked away from it. Never done that before, it felt so rude to be chopped off.

Apart from being on the 60V platform vs the 48V, how would you compare this bike to the Mokwheel Basalt? The nice thing about the Mokwheel is the high payload capacity of 400 pounds, good for riders who are over 250 pounds. Can the Wired bike support a larger rider? Also how well of a job does the rear swing arm do at absorbing wheel hop? Because, with a rear drive instead of a mid-drive that is my concern being a heavier rider.
