Around the 7:40 mark, our host mentions that the twist throttle can be tricky for newbies. I haven’t been on this one but the Jetson Bolt Pro is comparable and I tell everyone to be sure to keep the bike OFF until you are well-seated. You don’t want it to take off without you.

Very honest and thorough review, good details and comparison to pros and cons all the way through.

For anybody considering it, don’t underestimate the value of portability. Based on my JBP experience, can put the bats down, take the seat out, and travel with this thing in your trunk. That helps you get more out of it AND you’ll be less concerned about theft than others who put their bigger, fancier models on racks on the backs of their cars. I’m not judging those people but theft is a HUGE concern - especially when traveling. The best way to protect the PeV is by taking it with you and/or storing it behind a locked door. I’m telling you. It’s maybe the best feature of these bikes, at these prices.

I agree with you but what about security chains and locks? There are bike/motorcycle chains that are pretty much resistant to anything except someone with a powerful angle grinder but that would make a lot of noise for 15 minutes just to steal your bike!

@@fredwerza3478 my understanding, as a non-thief, is that they allll have their vulnerabilities. I’ve heard about freezing the locking mechanism via the keyhole. The most hardcore chains are also cumbersome and heavy. The most resistant options are often not long enough to go from the secure portion of the bike to the pole. Bike racks are sometimes imperfect or the accessories, seats, etc are taken. None of this is to judge anyone’s security choices. It’s just that nothing beats taking it with you - security wise. That’s not always convenient so locks are handy. But portability is a niiiice anxiety-reducer.

Great tips, thanks for being so thoughtful.

Great video! Thank you for the info!

Great review! Have been walking past this bike at my local Target and check it out every time. I’m 6’4, 160lbs so I will definitely look funny. Main goal with this bike is to mess around with it. Just a fun toy.

I'm 6'2" and 230 and I just got this bike --- it feels like a toy! I would warn you not to take it on any rough pavement where there might be large cracks or potholes because you will crash because of the small tire size. A large person feels very unstable on this thing, and it feels like it's made for kids age 14 and under. I rode the Jetson Bolt Pro and it has 14-inch tires and feels a lot more stable.

How do you like it?

Is there a simple method to disconnect the throttle and just use pedal assist?

The only Advantage I see to 12-in tires is that you have less distance to fall when and if you do but as for me I know I eventually will so long as there's a non-zero probability of doing so

Is it good on steeper grades?

Question about pedal assist- wondering if this happens to you too. My pedal assist only kicks in at the initial bike ride when pedaling. When going at a faster speed, the pedal assist does not kick in anymore. I had to pedal faster to catch up to the throttle speed. Does this happen to you?

@HBV90

Жыл бұрын

I believe this is normal. The Pedal assist on this bike only help you get that little push when you start pedaling..I've never manage to go fast enough on this thing with just using the pedal to see if it will continue to kick in, but I'm doesn't look like it does. Only when you start pedaling.

Any recommendations for a bike lock? The one I have doesn’t fit through the tires

That's about right how far it goes so that means that bike has got like a 10 amp hour battery in it mine's only got a 6 amp hour battery the stock but the weird thing is is I can go about 10 miles on it even though it's A 6 amp hour battery

Great video. I just bought this ebike yesterday so I didn't ride it yet and I can't find the height range. I'm 5'8" and I can tell my knees will hit the handle bars when I turn even with the seat higher. Do you know the height range and how tall are you?

The only difference is the Jets and bolt pro is a 350 watt motor

The light is crap don't use it it'll just wear your battery down get some external lights for your bike trust me

Yeah and you'll fall and just getting scratch it only goes 15 miles an hour dude do you ain't going to do much to your body if it takes if it decides to take off the motor's not that strong now I'd be more worried about it if it was a 500 up to 1000 watt motor yeah but that's a $250 watt motor I don't think you have to worry about it doing stupid s*** unless you're not paying attention to what you're doing
