Let me break it down for you. 70% of NYC cars in recent studies are clocked as Speeding on local roads. Cars kill every single day so have you seen bans on fast cars or sport cars? Are 70% of Car drivers getting tickets? Licensing or not, cars kill every day. Every E-Bike on the road replacing a car is saving lives in dense cities. Go visit a big city ER before hating on BS minor E-Bike infractions. Everyone Jaywalks in NYC too.

​@@718og i agree with everything you said but i think he was talking about the part where hundreds of people are riding around not obeying any traffic laws , stops, intersections, no concern for cars or people crossing a crosswalk, i saw people riding on the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic hahah. There is a term RISKY SHIFT in social psychology, people start doing crazy stupid things just because they are in a big mob. Although I dont think anyone will stop the rides, the authorities and media encourage lawlessness and allow it daily.

@@718og I'm not arguing with ya mate like I said i agree. You can say relatively it is safe compared to X Y Z yes that is true. The objective fact remains: a large group of people are riding around not following basic common sense laws of the road that everyone is expected to follow in order for the road to function. Did you see what happened with Mister Trudeau in Canada and the Truckers, government loves when these things happen because they can use it as an excuse to take xtreme measures and impose x y z new laws that screw everyone over. Common sense isnt so common I guess

That was a good ride. Thanks for the view. It’s a wonder I have not seen a group ride in all the times I’ve been out, but enjoyed several via YT.

Can't imagine riding a one wheel bike on the streets of NY. Looked like a fun time.

Wish I was there. Looks awesome.

That looked like a blast!

This looks awesome!

Thanks for including my DIY Build I named E-Metron in your vid. Similar frame to a Delfast but my own unique 72v build. Good job keeping up with us on a Bafang!

Great video. Left out a lot of info but understandably so. This event will be redone soon without the issues that arose. Hope to see you out in NYC again

Good video👍 ride safe all the time.

Nice shot of my mid-drive RX at the end! Cool vid.

I’m glad to see people using helmets when riding. Seen videos that nobody wears it. Can’t wait for to get out there and join in.

I have a HJM Ebike on the way to replace the one that got stolen. It's a three wheel trike to be exact. Looks like fun riding along with all them people.

Going to my first meetup on my bike this Saturday in Tampa. Just watching other rides bc im so stoked :)

Keep up the videos! This was super entertaining as with many of your other stuff

Who do you have to follow to get the invite for events like this. Id love to ride with a group but idk who to contact. Awesome video and hope this time is better

How fast was the ride? Just curious if one could keep up on a standard class 2 ebike.

What kind of active cooling do you have on your bike? I watched some other videos from you and I know you drilled holes in your frame to cool off the controller but not sure I see anything about that device you have on it

How do you find these rides? And how do you get your bike to NYC

When you said in the last video you were coming to this avent I was going to say these guy don't ride slow they all have fast upgraded bikes infact I've already seen this ride twice by different KZreadrs but you did well to keep up with these guys o did you see the cake bike 👍🏾

The grin g62 6.5 winding is for 26" wheels so it might be spinning slower than you would want on a 20 inch wheel. Grin Doesnt have the G62 modeled in their motor simulator yet. its probably similar to a G60, just capable of handling more current. I plugged the G60 into the motor sim and when i change the wheel diameter from 28" to 22" , its about 20% difference in top speed

Wow comments are a little feisty! I do think the fast powerful ebikes are cool and want one myself. However, I do get the feeling that with the mainstream popularity ebikes are getting, we’re probably gonna start seeing more rules and such put in place. Which isn’t what I want. At least they’re not really cracking down on e scooters or EUCs yet.

"Active cooling"? That’s a first; do you have more on this? TIA

In my state of NH, the vast majority of those high powered ebikes would be illegal. I'm happy for you folks. I get hassled by cops with my stock 750w and 1000w ebikes with stock batteries & controllers if I go more than 28-30mph.

no permits? just total chaos and unwanted disruption i feel for you guys. its going to be tragic when the roundup occurs. $ millions to the junk yard it already in the works.

Why does someone ALWAYS have to spam there horn in group rides

Don't be that consumerist guy that just buys the Sur Ron to be cool and go fast. Only so much of a "build" you can do; when you buy a prebuilt its like everything is set up and dialed and you don't even want to touch it or work on it. It's more intersesting to see builds and tinkering and coming up with a build that works for you. SECONDLY, with Sur Rons, if it looks like a dirtbike and quacks like a dirtbike, the police are probably gonna give you some trouble. Been riding my BBSHD around for years, see police all the time, never had anyone say 1 thing about it or question it, because it looks like a bike and i pedal and when I'm around anyone I slow waaaaay down. The ebikes that look like dirtbikes are the ones that get pulled over and you're going to end up with a 4000$ POS you can only drive off road, or license and insure and all that rigamarole. I guess you can go race around in the streets of NYC and get away with it because its such a dumpster fire there.

Looks like a fun way to get lots of restrictive laws passed against ebikes.

And this my friends is why ebikes are going to be banned or heavily regulated in most states. Y'all are going to ruin it for us all. These bikes that go 30-40mph and fall into the moped/dirt bike category are going to take a big dump on the rest of us. Sucks. Make sure you thumbs down this vid. ps in a lot of states you need a moped plate and moped or motorcycle license to be street legal

Amazing the number of trolls on this thread. Thank you for the video. I love ebikes, but todays video was more e motorcycle than bike. PAS is super important to me as a filter between Ebike and e-motorcycle. For me being part of the drivetrain myself is very rewarding. Just my opinion but PAS keeps speed down to “bicycle “ safe speeds, pushes your body as much as you desire it, components are way way cheaper to upgrade and replace. E motorcycles are cool but they are crowding into the bicycle arena, and that group is a very different bunch than typical Ebikers/cyclists. The Suron, especially spec wise, is honestly a crappy version of a dirt bike. If that’s your style of riding for half the money you can get twice the gas powered dirt bike with no range anxiety. And those can handle the bumps. I don’t know why but when I see a suron all I think is someone made a terrible decision. Stick with your custom builds, don’t switch to some cookie cutter motorcycle that can’t really perform any better than a 1500 dollar Honda cub.

LMAO! Everyone showed up with dirt bikes. Good thing NYC doesn't enforce any laws anymore. Many of those "e-bikes" should have a license plate on them.

The thing I like about good old fashioned bicycles is that they don't fry my balls with electro mechanical radiation.

I think it's funny how people on bikes always complain about how people in cars drive. And then the people on bikes just do whatever when riding around cars. Blocking lanes and shutting down roads/intersctions would get you shot around here.

9 minutes and 49 seconds into the video you cut of a pedestrian in the cross walk. You're video and the actions of your group will help to ensure that we'll have a registration process in the not so distant future. This will effectively take away the best part of owning a PEV. I love my bikes to include our ebikes. And because of people like you and your group, ebikes are prohibited 🚫 in certain areas where bicycles are still permitted to travel where I live. Thanks alot..... I'll return the favor by supporting any legislation that places sanctions on high performance ebikes (like requiring a license to operate, registration, insurance, vehicle inspections, and plates). In the future if you want to do a group ride like that, get a permit like they do for the 5 Boro bike tour. 30,000 plus riders on the road without breaking every other law and endangering pedestrians. Such a "Richard Cranium" thing to do and record on video.
