Thank you for letting us ride along. I really enjoy your commentary and points of interest you point out as you ride.
I love area where you drive chris every time different route keep them coming . Gus man is so adorable
I'll never be an electric car guy but as I've gotten older I am seriously thinking about an electric bike. I find your reviews very informative and being from the area, I enjoy seeing where you ride and your commentary. Keep up the great work! Don't change!!
As an older guy who at one time lived in the area, I feel the same way. I just ordered my first ebike which should be here this week. It was Chris that got me looking at Vitilan and that's what I ended up buying.
I spend winters in MX. Last season I thought about buying an electric bike. It would make weekly grocery shopping and 10-20 mile exploration so much easier. Thanks for the reviews.
Gus is always glad to help you.
Another Great Bike review video! I was waiting to see if you'd ever mention the USS United States ... saw an excellent documentary on it and it was the most luxurious American liner ... and yes the fastest .. .Shame it's just sitting there. Keep up the excellent videos Chris! God Bless 😎
That cheesesteak looks absolutely amazing. I love myself a good Philly cheesesteak. I’d love to see you tour that ocean liner. Maybe even with just the drone. Something about that black topside paint, and red bottom paint reminds me of the titanic.
Love watching my city on camera. Thank you so so much for all your content as always amazing stuff
Besides the information on the E Bike we get a Historical Reference with the ride thanks 🙏
That grab handle under the seat looks primo for skitching along on a skateboard!
Great review as always, Chris!
Another great review!! I love your stuff man both this channel and your main and I also try and catch Jen's too please keep up the good work much love from the UK !
All Hail "The king of e bike reviews"
I will probably never buy an electric bike. However, the ride along is worth the watch. Thanks for sharing Chris. Great content
Thanks for another great review, I also enjoy seeing where you ride.
Love the footage of the United States and the history. You make great, interesting videos. Thanks.
Great review and ride along as always, that double take on the old man was gold cheers
Bet your getting a drawer full of those front temporary/dummy axles.. Keep waiting for them to show up in a project!. :) Great video. Thanks Chris!
Haha you got that right! I have a bunch of them in my threaded rod/stud drawer
Brilliant video Chris, love the info about the areas you pass through and excellent drone shots👍🇮🇪
Thank you, pretty nice bike nice road trip nice to have a big ship to explore , I had a chance to explore a working lake ship I yelled up guy said come aboard saw the ship top to bottom then split pretty small door ways ,keep up with the great entertainment, this is good stuff
Look forward to seeing you do a "will it run" on that ship
Another awesome informative video,top work Chris.Thanks
Chris I'm glad to see your reviewing affordable Ebikes. They can get a little pricy real quick.
I'm liking your ebike reviews
Nice bike and nice drone footage.I'm curious,what do you do with the bikes after you do the videos?
I’ve noticed you always pick up the front forks to put on the tire. I usually flip the bike upside down on the seat and handle bars to take tires on and off.
Great review, looks a good bike.
Very nice bike and a great review. I'll be in the market for an electric bike at some point but I'm waiting to see more of your reviews. It would be cool if you had some sort of a personal rating system, like out of 10 or 100 so we'd know what you'd consider good vs great. 12:38 any chance you could get on that beast for a tour?
Awesome video again thanks 👍 ✌ 🤙
Good review Chris. You have got to love wee Gus, such a wee punk. Do you get to keep these bikes?
i just bought the totguard 350w ebike its awesome got 25 miles on one charge and its only 500 dollars you should check it out ! stiff seat just a warning lol great vid as always :)
Good video. I also like seeing the surrounding area. Never been back there. Cali sucks
Love your bike reviews, keep em coming, but what blew me away was the SS America, yes this is a massive digression but it was so sad to see her like that.
Oddly fun to watch these. What do you do with all these things after you review them?
You heard of place called Marketplace he explained on one older videos
Dude walking 4 wide on the wrong side of the bike path so no one can get through but somehow you're the one did something wrong...lol What was the deal with that camper thing, somebody actually driving that? That can't be legal! 😆 I remember going down the rabbit hole about the SS United States. Even the coat hangers were made of aluminum and everything about it was built for speed. It's really quiet a site to see going over the bridge. We'd always see it going from Williamsport to Atlantic City. I like these e-bike reviews. Thinking about getting that one that did almost 90 miles a few videos ago. Looking forward to the updates on the new shop build.
Thanks for the tour. Looks nice maybe more speed and with the fat tires. Phil-cheese steak looooooooks killer tho!! ...sad Hooters don't know how to make them here in Albuq NM or franchise wise.
G'day mate Im in Australia and really enjoy both your channels, it seems your really enjoying your life these days, Enjoying your best life, Whats the deal with all those little dirt bikes and quad bikes running around the streets in large numbers, Is that allowed in America? 2nd question how do you know its a good battery and wont catch fire like we see so many doing?
Great looking and riding bike! 20 mph is fast enough for most urban settings. -Filmmakers of yore would’ve killed to have access to a drone to produce those terrific aerial sequences! This review didn’t show up in my notifications. Maybe it didn’t for other subscribers as well in light of the low view count so far?
FWIW, I no longer use notifications. I just bookmark the Subscriptions page and use that instead of the Home page.
I miss downtown Philly :D
What is the brand on the hydraulic brakes?
Electric bikes very popular on the West Coast of Vancouver BC we have some hills & with gas at $1.95@ litre cheap transportation
I love that bike…
Looks like the tires could be a little wider, but not that bad. Thanks for the video.
Chris, what do you do with all these ebike's after you review them ?
You should do giveaways on these after your reviews 😊
I’d never buy an e-bike. Instead of spending $1000 or more I can buy a Bicycle for $100. Much lighter, easier 2 maintain, requires me to exercise to move it, less coveted by thieves, parts cost much less, easier to carry upstairs, if it gets damaged I can purchase another one and still've saved $800. Although I must say you do make some of the best videos on KZhead.
Any word on durability of the display units? They are getting shaken pretty hard...
😂Gus always getting in on the act.
Great review of the UrbanGlide-Pro. It is priced pretty competitive. Any issues with the brakes or shifting? I would like to see Tektro brakes but the ones on the Van Powers look like re-branded Tektro's. Also a Shimano shifter would be nice. 32 miles is quite disappointing as it is advertised as 65-70 and you weren't really pushing it that hard. Looking at this or the New Velotric Discover 2. There is a big difference in price. Thanks again for a real world use review.
I sold it to a friend of mine and he's put a lot of miles on it since. He's enjoying it a lot and hasn't had any issues
I like that SS UNITED STATES SHIP
How much does it weigh without battery?
I’ve been meaning to eat at Rocco’s …always smells so good when I go to Home Depot!
In the interest of science, any way you could use assist level 1 and pedal? I'm curious what that range would be.
I'll have to do that in a future video. But yes it would be considerably more range
@@NNKH2 Question is, can you ride 50-75 miles if you are pedalling? That is a non-trivial distance.
You use a lot of phone mounts in your vids. Any recommendations? I just ordered a Qmount
Honestly I'm not partial to any one single phone holder. So whoever's got the best price and good reviews. I used to love tack form holders but have steered away recently
Do you prefer a mid drive motor or a Hub type motor ? I'm watching and shopping a lot of these bikes. Very mind boggling
Hub motors work very well and that's what I have most experience riding however mid drives definitely offer a better writing experience and much more hill climbing ability
With the bike off, hold down the power button for 7-8 seconds. Password is 202002 to get into advanced settings. How fast can you go now?
Hello Chris
If you go to the web site it says 70 Miles Range, Is there a different battery you can get for this long range. I know you did not get this many miles out of your demo model. And this is the Urban Glide Pro
Generally I see around half the advertised range when riding full power at full speed. On pretty much every bike I've tested. If you ride it on assist one and go slower and pedal you can get many more miles
Dam you get alot of e bikes!!
Do any e-bikes come with blinkers?
He just reviewed one: kzhead.info/sun/nN1td7xummKudKs/bejne.html
I may get me an electric bike that one and one of the others stand out the most
Wow loved seeing the ss united States have watched alot about it in the past hopefully it gets restored some day , unfortunately old warships/liners etc are being harvested for they're non radioactive metals
Ever have any battery fires?
Fortunately I have not
So your not going to speak to the generic brakes Zstar?
These bike manufactures send you these bikes at no cost to you right? Just for your evaluation?
👍👍
just needs to go 28 and double the battery.
"Sings" Streets of Philadelphia "
😎👍🏼🔥💯🍺
So you’re promoting an e-bike with hydraulic brakes with the namebrand Z star? Are you sure you want to do that? Have you even done a research on those brakes out of Taiwan?
I try to test bikes out, give you my thoughts and show any failures that occur. I share my thoughts and experiences, positive or negative
11:47 I love your channel and content Chris, but please give pedestrians more space and slow down when on shared pathways. Imagine if cars drove that close to you when you're biking on the road. Otherwise, great video as always!
Maybe they shouldn't walk against the direction of travel, even as a walker it annoys me when people decide to walk on their left side and refuse to move when they see me or other pedestrians walking that way.
I stopped watching this review at 5:32. Respectfully, how can you review a bike if you don't know how to fix a disc that is rubbing?
I stopped reading your comment when I saw you gave yourself a thumbs up.
Respectfully
And to help answer your concern, you either been the rotor a little bit if it's bent or re-center the caliper by loosening the button hitting the brakes. Hope that helps
@NNKH2 it was never a concern since I know how to do it. I have no idea about e bikes, that's why I came to this video, but saying that it will work itself out isn't the most appropriate advice to people that is watching this videos to learn about what you are reviewing. If you can't take a respectful opinion from your viewers, I understand. Thank you for responding.
Nice "ladies-style" ebike -
You're living in the past man!
@@theinkroom5642 Oh, okay.... nice "former ladies-style" ebike. How's that? 😉
Sorry, I’ll stay subscribed to NNKH I’m over all the electric bike and solar generator reviews so unsubscribing.
