Seems fun... but I also wish we'd classify class 1 vs everything else as moped. If it has a throttle... I struggle to think it should be on any paths or trails.
@saleen6922 ай бұрын
Your kidding right… The c5 kind of sucks. It’s super small you can basically bunny hop it. do you even know the average speed in tour d France lol. Bikes with no motor can go just as fast. You realize mtb’s road bikes etc not only can go faster then class one and even the big companies are pushing over the wattage of the himiway c5
@johnc77532 ай бұрын
@saleen692 well aware. Own many. But a throttle isn't appropriate IMO on public paths. Assist and throttles are very different. We didn't allow it with mopeds, why change it when the fuel type is different. Mini bikes weren't allowed either.

So I bought a couple of Mountain Bike Action magazines the other day for the first time in over ten years. There were no giant ads for ordering bikes and parts like there used to be and very few bikes that were not electric. I guess I'm done reading that magazine now

I have a bike like this. It’s great for running errands and getting a quick 28 mph adrenaline rush. The throttle means no wear and tear on your knees too.
@MattyActive6 ай бұрын
I feel the same way! If I have to run an errand and it’s biking distance, I usually just take this lol

I had a friend that built an ebike from a kit that he bought from China a few years back. He put a speedometer on it. We have a large parking lot at work and we work nights and no one is out there at 4 am. He had me ride it back and forth between our buildings I had the bike almost at 50 mph. So I know they can build bikes like that if they wanted to

I'm getting one!! Hey, just a note make sure you stop at those red lights and stop signs. I got a ticket on my Cobra Pro in PA. Unmarked car sitting right by the light and he nailed me. I'm sure in 3-5 years these things will have to be registered to ride them.

Looks like that would be a great commuter for in city rides on nice days. Not pedaling means not getting sweaty in work clothes then having to sit in an office...I agree the twist throttle would be better for riding, but the thumb throttle is probably better for pedaling which is probably why they have it that way. Let's be honest it's probably also cheaper...:). It looks like fun!

This thing is kinda in the gray area between pedal assist class 1 ebikes and electric motorcycles like Surrons. 28mph is approaching the speeds of 50cc sctooters. FWIW in Denver, class 2 ebikes can ride on bike paths, but class 3s can only ride on the road, unlocking that bike technically bumps it up to class 3. Just don't be "that guy" that gets into a major crash with one in a bike lane and causes the state to require license and insurance for all ebikes and gets them banned from bike lanes.

Go ride it. It will change your mind. Silly to think this bike in a gray area. Freaking scooter go faster thing this bike
@mrvwbug44236 ай бұрын
Another thought, if you wanted to try some trail riding on it, take it up to Rampart Range and try it out on some of the moto trails there, that is a motorized trail system, so no restrictions on ebikes at all.

I got some of the less expensive Go Trax machines like that. It wasn't what I'm after. But I do love my YT Decoy way more than I expected. I make it a personal rule to not ride on streets anymore. Neighborhoods are the worst. People look right at you while they pull out right in front of you. It's crazy.

This does not make any sense to me as a bicycle, it's useless. But as a motorcycle it makes more sense. This is more of a electric motorcycle with optional pedalling. Great you mention how it's not intended for pedalling. Geometry, no bicycle saddle, inefficient pedalling, and of course not legal to ride on a cycle path an mtb trail. In Norway, unless it's with permission as a handicap vehicle. Then Throttle is allowed. . I've seen a trike hand cycle that had a throttle, no plates on it. If a bike has a throttle or has pedal assist past the allowed limit it has to have plates and only used on a road, of course MX track & mx Enduro course. But to a certain speed I think. And even assist is limited I think it was 20 something km/h. So cat 1 I think. I would not be able to use it anywhere else than a road or a MX track or Motorcycle Enduro track. Motorcycles are not allowed on any trail, there are no moto trails here, apart from specific ones in certain areas. So requires travel to get to those, unless you do it on someones farm Some have MX track on their farm.

What I hate about electric bikes is when someone passes me while riding on the bike path then when they pass me it's some little grandma with a big smile on her face so I guess it's good.

Does the handlebar height of this bike give you any thoughts about the handlebar height on your bicycles, or vice versa?

The comments in here like this e bike should be moped 😂😂😂😂. The thing is super small not even size of a mtb. I personally think it kind of sucks like the bike is for kids as a learning option. It needs more power. It’s only 750w😂 basically get a cruiser doing that speed with no motor. There’s literally e-mtb that have 750w- 14kw + Go complain to the bigger companies that you bought a bike with no motor cause they have the same power
