So apparently the battery of one of my recent bikes has a risk of short circuiting, so anybody that purchased has to “destroy the battery” and get a new one… But today, I ride the Vitalin i7 – which has not been recalled! Yippee! However, I say the price is $1,100 while filming – it turns out it’s actually $1,350 right now! https://vitilanebike.com/products/i7-pro-folding-full-suspension-electric-bike

(Vitalin sent me this bike for free. Not paid to promote it tho. I don’t even have a referral for this one lol)

Crazy how dinky these things are. Time to try an actual dirtbike
Alex slowly becoming an ebike review channel gives me life
I love these videos and I don't want an ebike but love feeling like I'm on a bike ride lol

The e bikes are pretty messed up just like the electric longboard/skateboard market. Some dude in China will buy a stolen design. Pay a company to make it. Sell it without testing. Then just buy better smaller part as the item breaks in massive amounts. One time my longboard has a spacer issue that randomly cause the wheel to come off and wobble. Nobody knew until people just ate shit. Then the company owner sent Teflon tape, bearings, and spacers that were filed down a bit.
Then when people wanted knew tires in full to make sure they don't die, the owner told them to send back the original tires including the issue. Why? Probably to fix them cheaply and resell them.
Not gonna lie. Papa could use one of those. 😂
You live an interesting life. Good Job and thank y9u
Can you do weekly uploads
I got my mountain bike style e-Bike for $200 at a pawn shop. Only thing wrong with it at the time of purchase is I don't have the key to remove the battery pack from the chassis. Still charges to about 16 miles of travel purely on battery over a year later from when I bought it. Not sure how much older than that it is, but definitely feel like I got lucky.
if you're interested in ebikes but not in companies sending you there's, you could try to build your own! It's not as complicated as it sounds and if you have bikes you like already you can upgrade them 🙂
Not into bikes, but now I wish I was cuz those greenways are so pretty! That off roading is kinda sketchy though, be safe lol
I was impressed that it never dropped your phone during all the rough terrain
Oh also to explain the battery percentage jumping around – battery % left is calculated on the battery's voltage. Ebikes and other electronic devices powered by a battery experience what's called "voltage sag" where under high loads of use the voltage drops to a level that doesn't reflect the actual capacity remaining. The % remaining jumped back up when you stopped since it wasn't under load, and could accurately read the voltage of the battery pack!
About a year ago I got the wildeway ebike. 800 bucks for a new 48v 32ah 750 watt ebike. Probably one of the best purchases I've made for the price as I use it to commute to work so so far I've taken it over 1500 miles.
