It's a culture clash that's preventing their potential. Bike paths could potentially be very effective commuter methods for people who don't need a car, but boomers who want to go 6 mph on a bike think anything over 15 mph is too fast, and that all those miles should only be for recreational use

EUCs are starting to hit 50mph, and escooters are hitting 70mph. There really is no reason why ebikes shouldn't be hitting ~100mph by now. Being able to take them on highways would be nice.

@@Andorski eh. A 100 lb vehicle is pretty sketchy above 50 mph. They make sense topping out between 35 and 50 mph, and cities should allow them on low speed roads and bike paths (bike paths limited to 35 mph during commuting hours and 25 during the weekend and non commuting hours)

Looks like a great bike! Pretty good top speed for cruising and I totally agree that we have bigger concerns with people flying down the road in their cars on their phones than a person cruising and much more likely focusing while on their e bike.

Love the styling of it.

Micah you did a great review for this bike. I think I'd like to have this bike and the extreme bull k6 in my garage. Those would be my two bike options I think for now. Great coverage of safety and tips and watching for others and being responsible. Berri No-ICE.

Yes, thanks for doing the pedal test instead of just blowing it off like everyone else is doing. I was wondering whether it is geared high or low; no one else said. To me, a low gear would’ve made more sense; at least it could reasonably be limped home if we run out of juice. Gear it for 5 mph. Good job too on pointing out legal aspects. Too many people getting these and going 35 mph on bike paths is going to make eventual law enforcement unpleasant for ALL of us. They’ll have to be registered as scooters,(not even just mopeds) licensed, taxed through stickers, etc.

Nice looking ebike! I dig the moped style bikes, they’re fun to zip around town on.

Great review! Just discovered your channel and subbed 🤙 One question I was the battery location; How much does it affect the center of gravity being high up there? As opposed to some other manufacturers that have it mounted lower? Thanks and keep up the great work!

that was a nice review bro

I almost want to trade in my Super73 ZX and get one of these. Suspension, lights, and an extra 10mph for the same price. And it’s beautiful

Stellar Review Micah

One of the best ebike reviewers

Cool review. Contemplating Honda Ruckus vs something like this. Curious to hear what the community thinks.

Sweet that you are in Florida!!

Nice E-bike. I notice that there's enough room in that frame to put a small 2-cycle engine to take over when the battery runs out of juice. Some enterprising mechanic should do that and see how it works.

I don't know where these 15 and 20 mph top range have come from. From my first bike a 3 speed gazelle I could cruise at 25 and down hills over 35. A French racer gets you up around 48 mph. (They don't do good with curbs) my old mountain bike which I set up as a road bike got to the mid thirties. When I first got my ride1up 700xr I hacked the controls and hit 38 on the flats but it used too much juice. Downhill I've hit 48 mph but the bike really wants to stand up and go straight at speed. I'm happy with the bike.

this looks great !! and its either this bike , Ariel rider or the juiced scrambler . I can't decide !!

Super-73,who? Looks like there is a new moped ebike king 🤴 ❤🎉

This makes me want to sell my Super73 RX Mojave I bought 6 months ago and get one of these. I probably won't, but that bike's so tempting to get.

Great review, thanks. I am 5'3" do you think the bike is big for my size?

🤩👍🏽 I like the look of this one

it would be nice to see more e moped /motorcycles fill the gap between powerful ebikes and 125cc or more equivalent e motorcycles like metacycle or zero. something with power similar to unrestricted 2 stroke mopeds/scooters we used to have with around 5hp/50moh. without 50cc regulation it could even be in 5kW/8hp territory that gives goid acceleration to go with traffic or even get in front, but not necessarily highway speeds, like 50 mph like a sur Ron power train in a lightweight road motorcycle with mirrors, blinkers, etc and plates for registration depending where you live. highway speeds requires adequate superior braking, stability, tires, etc whereas just getting better acceleration on a 50mph motor is more like a safety feature to blend in traffic and it's nowhere large displacement motorcycle where handling the power and keeping speed in check can be challenging. here in Maryland moped law is a joke though with 30mph/1.5hp

I'm at around 280lbs, and Super73's weight limits go to around 300lbs. That's cutting it a little close for me. This bike is exciting because it says the weight limit is 400lbs! Do you have any friends who are heavier who could try out the bike, and examine if their weight seems to greatly affect the speed/performance? That would be awesome

cool motorcycle styled e moped ! not exactly as good looking as super73 but specs over style! 90Nm is good but you probably need all of it to tackle steep hills with a single speed an very long gearing. plus nothing feels as lame as an ebike that goes very fast on the flatbut completely bogs down on hills. except if you live in Florida or Netherlands of course. Micah, if I had one thing to say about your reviews, it's the lack of climb tests. I can't decide myself between a fast e moped like this, a 4000 metacycle , and building a fast bike I know I should get the 3 but is an expensive hobby!

Also, you can register it as a motorcycle. With a license, you'll be legal on the street and by cutting the power on the sidewalk too!

If I want to hardwire a horn and turn signals. Where should I get the power from? I have a fucare gemini!

I got curious and checked the Hyper Scrambler Two and it's almost $1,000 cheaper than what it was a couple of months ago, I hope that's not a bad sign cuz I really like these full suspension e-bikes, especially the ones with the longer-range. I love my current Ariel Rider Grizzly and it was at the time I bought it the best option for that kind of e-bike, but this Revv1 thing in particular could be giving it a run for its money especially with the battery expansion thing and I love to see it, strong competition, strong industry.

Micah, can you help us understand what is really going on with the components of this ebike? Ride1Up's spec sheet says they are using a 28 amp controller. 52v @ 28amps on a Bafang G60 motor does not equal 37 MPH real world speed on flat ground with any other ebike on the market. They seem to be using the stock Bafang G60 cast wheelset that has been out for a few years and its capabilities are well understood by Grin Tech and others. What gives? Are they using a super high RPM motor winding on their G60 and fibbing about the amperage of their controller? I don't understand how a 20 inch Bafang G60 wheelset hits 37mph with 52v on flat ground otherwise. Especially on a heavy bike with poor aerodynamics as you pointed out in this video.

Its because of the legacy moped laws that require plates and registration -- I had a moped license and a titled moped at 15 -- 40 years ago. It was specifically a "gas" vehicle. So these new electric class 2 and 3 bikes don't need a MC endorsement, registration, plates or insurance. And they can be really cheap because they don't need to be road certified. So they want to keep the bikes cheap and not have to deal with any state DOTs. Its one reason there just aren't that many electric motorcycles that can be plated and ridden on highways.
