When I was in fourth / fifth grade in Portland I delivered 30 afternoon papers and a big Sunday morning paper and bought me a large skinny wheel 3-speed cruiser bicycle. I could stand on the pedals and coasting down the hill in the middle of the road swinging the bike left and right with my arms in the air until one day I ended up in the ditch. My family also delivered the morning paper until we made enough to buy our first color TV for the living room. That route was done in a station wagon as it was a cold snowy winter.

​@@kyshawntv6285quite late, but unless you're looking at a used ebike... please save up for something decent. Even just the electronic system matters. Like, you can upgrade your groupset, wheels, fork and whatever, but if you buy an ebike for a thousand dollars new, you'll get a system that may or may not be supported by anyone in a year or two. Bosch, Shimano and Bafang are three household names for ebike systems which will be supported for quite a while. As an example: the Bosch classic system is more than 10 years old at this point, but you can still get parts, because they didn't make major changes until like 2021 or 2022. So let's say you buy a used bike with that old system, as long as you know what you're looking for, you can get a new motor, display, battery, cables, etc etc without running into trouble. And I've seen bikes with that system rolling into our shop with 25k miles on them. That's always something to consider

*Everything you said about being a paperboy is wrong, and it’s the worst job ever. You do have a boss. You can’t work whenever you want, papers must be delivered by 6am. There’s no bikes all car. You must work every day, you can’t call out. You have to pick up papers by 3-4 am. You make anywhere from 130-250 a week depending on how many papers you have( literally like $7 an hour). You do get tips added onto that but only like 15% of people do that. And unless you are in a rich neighborhood your only getting $1-$4 a month per house that tips. If someone calls in and says their paper was late or not delivered you get docked $1-$2.50. And worst part is they take out no taxes because your an independent contractor. So come tax time you have to pay $1500-2000 per route. And some papers (like the one I worked at) you have to deliver to their doorstep. So every house you have to get out and run (walking will make you late) up to the house and back. So your spending 1-2 hours running every night, plus however long your driving. There is only one reason you should ever take this job. And that’s Christmas tips. You can get $800->$2000 in tips. Pick up a route in November (there are literally always routes open) around thanksgiving you put bulk Christmas postcards in with the paper with printed out little thank you messages and your name and address on it. Then checks just start pouring in. But don’t do it unless you get a rich town. Otherwise tips included your making 13 an hour.)*

The 2nd was a 26" mountain bike I bought from Walmart with same parts it was much easier to control and a bit faster. Top speed was 32mph on the 20" and 38mph on the 26". Both still run great and my 13 year old love the 20". We go riding all the time together and have a blast. Peace

Just check the battery voltage if your display is able to show it to you. I know roughly exactly what percentage my battery is at all times and the bar on the screen doesn't make any sense it shows 1 bar at 48v when that's more like 40% on a 52v battery.

That was a great video lots of fun and a good review. I bought my bike on Amazon in February 2022. I tell you is very disappointing at first I had to upgrade just about everything except for the motor controller and battery. The brakes would not stop you they were dangerously weak. I got no support at all from the manufacturer.I did this to save money but you know the saying you get what you pay for. It is now a good bike but it’s because I was willing to upgrade it customize it to my specifications. I’m also a mechanic so it was no problem installing gutter and proper equipment. If I had to do it all over again I would go to a bike shop, where I would get support if needed.

I'm a semi daily Ebike commuter and i got a radrover 5. It's a good daily rider and unless it's snowing i dont mind the weather either. I can take dirt trails to and from work so I avoid traffic and when i do interact with it i can filter through the shoulder of the road. All in all if you have the ability to try it you should. Even if its just a few weeks of the year it's saved me 100s on gas while still getting me to work just as fast as a car when you count traffic For what he paid for the 1700 bike off Amazon he could have spent 300 more and got a radpower bike or an aventon or any good brand of bike. I like all E bikes just a point to hand out that a little more would've given you alot more

So let’s get this straight.. expensive means your have to cut zip ties and cheap means you have to clip zip ties 😮😂

This was such a fun video to watch after searching for e-bikes! And by chance they live in Lancaster as well! Fun video guys! You should have down a downtown challenge as well!

4:51 This is why I don't buy those e-bike kits anymore lol. "It's always something." I bought 3 kits they all died within 1 week or 6 months. I bought a RadPower RadRover and it lasted 2 years before the LCD panel died, preventing the bike from turning on. Which might have been an easy fix if I could have figured out how to isolate the problem. Instead it took a total of 2 MONTHS to fix the issue, because every new part takes about 2 weeks to ship. Really bad. It's over a week for them to even get to your order because they just sit in queue with nobody working on it, or they only process and ship in batches once a week rather than individual orders.

With the battery you have to have the key turned on the lock like you would on the bike to see the amount of charge.

Who would want to be doing 50mph+ on a bike with brakes and tyres only designed for 25mph?

@@BikesandBeards hey bikes and beards I just texted you

Just found you guys love the videos! Did I hear you right in Lancaster county?! I'm local!!!! Crazy!!!!

Best one I've seen in a while

Craig bike would be faster you have to go into sw900 parameters and adjust top speed , you can change many things there the kph to mph, Look up sw900 settings on KZread

What Craig doesn’t realize is that the chain wasn’t reversed but the bike was just upside down😂

It wasn’t that it was the rotation of the wheel. It was just going to spin the wrong way if he had the polarity set normally. Reversing the polarity made it so the power was reversed and so the rotation was too. The gears were just going to be on the wrong side if he had the polarity normal

You guys look like kids having a blast!

You're worried a bike Helmet won't protect your face? I thought that was what the beard was for....

What was unfair was one guy's bike came in box, while the other guy's was just parts he had to put on a bike. It would have been more fair for both to have either full bikes or just kits.

The motor on Craig's bike can do more with a more powerful controller. I pushed almost 5kw out of a 1500w motor. It would wheelie out the hole everytime. Didn't burn it, the coils inside were brand new, but spokes broke all the time.

Be nice to see Craig get the expensive item in one of these challenges for a change

I bought that cheap electric bike kit off of eBay in 2020, under 500 bucks for the kit and a battery and I was going 40mph without pedaling. I later put it onto a downhill mountain bike frame and now I have a sweet little off-road bike

You should always plug the charger into the battery, before you plug the charger into the outlet. No chance of damage to the battery that way

It's actually the other way around. If you don't plug the charger into the wall and turn it on first you get a spark more often than not because of the huge voltage gap.
