Thanks so much for watching!
Indeed, very comfortable bike for all ages, though expensive yet great value for the spend.
Totally agree! Thanks so much for watching!
Great controller. Crap, brittle, not fit for purpose bracket which mounts the controller onto the handlebar, which will snap and break at the first opportunity. The app is at best hit and miss. What works, work what doesn’t work, doesn’t!
@@user-ot2qg8np8y Yeah, I broke one on a different model bike. Bummer. There are a few different mounting brackets, so it depends which one is more breakable. But, the dealer had it fixed asap, so that was good. The app has a long history of version updates, so it might depend on an update … but apps are never perfect. Thanks for your comments.
@@TroyandAndrea “Different mounting brackets”? That’s news to me. In the time I’ve had my 2019 Giant Fathom E+ 3 29er, I’ve destroyed 4 brackets, two of them out of warranty. I’ve now ended up doing a gorilla fix, using a spare bit of inner tube and a couple of zip ties to secure my controller to my handlebar. It’s far from ideal but it’s better than returning my bike to the shop every three months and spending another £100 on something that shouldn’t have snapped in the first place.
@@user-ot2qg8np8y Yes, a few other model bikes had a little different bracket. But I agree, it shouldn’t have snapped in the first place - definitely an area to improve design.
What size frame is that?
@@goldiehonduh Hi! It’s a size small. Thanks for watching!
Rivnut size?
@@mickeyvicente8629 I used an M5 rivnut. Thanks for watching!
I'm looking into be in a e-bike camper bikepacking. I have hydraulic brakes too. 4:48 sounds like the cable problem would be the same for nearly every one. I see a lot of 20-35$ options on amazon and Temu for 12-15 L handlebar bag setups. Any thoughts ?
@@frankenstein3163 The prices for decent handlebar bag setups have come down considerably, so a good one is more affordable now. You can probably find a workable one on Amazon. I would check the reviews to help you make a decision. Thanks so much for watching. Have fun out there!
No power. Need power upgrade.
Okay, but as I have stated many times, it all depends on one's budget, ability, and availability of inventory. I agree that more power is great for a more skilled rider (I like more power myself), but this bike still has its rightful place in the market - like for those who don't need or want as much power (such people do exist!) Thanks for watching!
Great review. May I ask if the stock teravail tires are also tubeless ready? Thanks in advance
Hey there! YES! They are tubules ready! Here is a link for a little more info on the tires - thanks for watching! aroundthecycle.com/products/new-teravail-washburn-tire-700-x-38-tubeless-folding-tan-durable?srsltid=AfmBOooBZi0UmO-Bu7OoPETgeJdftqq04vRmSK8hzW1dCdO9_gvHpUSG
Thank you so much - there was no information about this app or my Momentum Vida+ e bike when I purchased it. so strange not to have any kind of manual.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching.
why can they not make this bike with higher gears like a three by front crank for hills
That would be useful!
Do they still make them w/ a rear monoshock?
Good question! I am not entirely sure - you might check the Giant website. Thanks!
🇵🇾🇵🇾🇵🇾
Vamos Albirroja!
excellent
Many many thanks!
BS. $200-300 cradles? What planet did you get that information. High end is $150.
@@markroberts6971 Not so smarty Joe. When this video was made, EVERYTHING for bikes was a LOT more expensive! The Salsa EXP (what I would consider a quality cradle) is finally at a reasonable $125.00. But that wasn’t the case coming out of Covid years. Either way, what difference does it make to you? Go buy what you want.
I have the 2016 roam much nice my frame is more robust... hydraulic brakes.. I hate the new models
Cool. I have an older model too ... there's definitely a difference! Thanks for watching!
Just bought this model from Pedelea bike shop in Vega Baja Puerto Rico. Seems great so far! Thanks
@@jaxsun72 That’s awesome! I’ve had mine awhile now and it STILL makes me smile! Hope you have many happy miles on it! Thanks for watching.
simple...use epoxy glue plus cable ties
Great tip! Thanks for watching!
The flat foot technology is a must have for me.
@@bobstranzenbach4700 It certainly makes it more comfortable! Thanks for watching.
Great video
@@ahmedqamar3453 Thank you!
❤
Gracias!
I will share like comment on your video and how much money will you pay
Its LA DIG A not LA DIE Ga - Otherwise great video
Haha! Thanks SO much for pronunciation tip! We appreciate it and thanks for watching!
Different, check the bolt tightness once a week when you're touring. Even racks will loosen up after a month touring.
Good advice! Thanks so much!
I love mine... got it about 8 years ago, however.. the seat is so painful... after about an hour on the bike... recommend this bike, but i would purchase a noseless seat, like VSeat.
VSeat? Hmmm, we will have to check that out! Yes, getting a good seat is super important! Thanks for watching!
This is an amazing bike and it has everything I need. Love the shifters, love sitting upright, love the brakes, love the color, love the shape, the weight, the tires, the feel. It's a perfect bike all around in my opinion and I put well over 3,000 mi on it at this point and still love it. I was looking at everything including the Trek Verve and this blew it away for way less money. I do think it's a good bike for most anyone but if you have neck or back issues need to set up right then this is absolutely without a doubt your bike.
Great comment! By the way, how does it compare with Cypress 3? I am in the position of choosing between the two models.
good review, but that paint job is terrible..
Thanks for watching!
What size is that and how tall are you?
It’s a 55 and I’m 175 cm. Thanks for watching!
Can’t find that bike in Europe…
Really ? Well, that isn’t good. Sorry to hear that. I would have thought it’s available worldwide.
I’ve had back surgery. I used to be able to ride 30 miles every single time. Now, I deal with a lot of pain and burning pain in my legs. I have a Trek Verve 2, but have found it’s not comfortable enough for my condition. I’m thinking of getting one of these as a last resort before I have get a different style bike altogether.
So sorry to hear about your pain, friend. Not being able to do the things you’d like to do is heartbreaking. I hope the Electra works for you and brings you some joy. Thank you for watching.
I used to ride events including 2 day 150s and centuries then had major Back and Shoulders injuries and switched to the the Townie 9D during recovery. It let me stay on the road, once I checked my ego a little. But my joy of riding with the family has been restored
Anyone know the weight in say a medium?
Thanks for the review!
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching!
Not the best built quality so yeah got on myself not the best wish I looked a bit harder
I have this exact bike in size large for sale if anyone is looking for one in southeastern michigan
Thanks.
How did you mount the rear rack behind the seatpost? I didn't find a good adapter yet.
Thanx for sharing sir.. it's really2 useful when we travelling on long trip👍
Awesome! Thanks so much for watching!
You for gott to tell what you putt in The framebag or whas i just not paying attention
Hey! Yeah, I should have given more info on that. I mainly use it for food, lights, chargers, my cameras, and anything I need to get to quickly and easily. Thanks for watching!
Great review!. I just recently purchased a Cypress 1. I have an arthritic neck, so the sitting upright position is ideal for me. Had a few short outings on it and so far so good - no neck pain!
So happy for you! Thanks so much for sharing and for watching!
Hello, could you show or explain a little better about the flat metal support part? I'd like to see how you installed it on the bike... By the way, very good video thanks for uploading your idea
Hi! Thanks so much. It’s was a flat piece of metal, about one inch wide, six inches long. I put it in a vice and bent it to that “S” like shape. I then zip tied it to the stem. Hope that helps.
Great video you two, but... Volume Warning🔊 at 11:17 for those using headphones. It gets LOUD!!!
Woops! Sorry about that! But thanks for watching!
I bought one of the same color، Thank you for the wonderful video. Greetings from Algeria
Thanks so much!
I have the same bike, a Giant Stance E+1, I have just installed the app on my iphone, filled in all my details and it connected to my bike, unfortunately it goes time out before the download completes my phone is showing 5g and I live in the Scottish Highlands, would appreciate some though on this. P.S. pensioner and not very techy.
Well, I am not really qualified either to speak to that. I would contact Giant directly or your local dealer. Thanks for watching.
My wife and I enjoyed this video last night, we’re from Louisiana and cycled this trail last year preparing for RAGBRAI. We camped at Lake Jeff Davis and bike the trail out about 25 miles and back. It was fantastic. Hope to get there again in to coming weeks. Ryan.
That is awesome! We certainly loved that trail and look forward to returning. We would also love to do RAGBRAI one day - we’ll see! Thanks so much for watching. Glad it was enjoyable!
App works like a charm! Great tutorial.
Thanks for watching!
Anyone help I have a giant fathom 2021 ebike I done the system check on the ride control app and alls green expect the sync drive motor is showing a Red Cross and on my Display panel the middle light is flashing red been fine for months but just randomly stopped working
Great looking bike. Looks like the red hills region of Florida and Georgia.
Thanks! You’d be correct! NW Florida forests. Thank you for watching!
Great Review!. Do you think a frame size S is good enough for a 1,72m guy? thanks a lot!
I think, yes, but I’d check the standover height before I bought it. Thank you for watching!
seems like mens version has too small clearance between pedals and front wheel, so the shoes can touch front wheel sometimes, isn't it?
Yes, sometimes, in some turns, but I never had much issue with that while riding. Thank you for watching!
Is it dropper post ready? Is there internal routing that allows for a dropper port to be installed?
Not on this model. Might check 2024 model specs for that. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for taking the time to share your setup. I'm curious what rear rack brand you use. Apologize if I missed it in a previous response. Thanks
Believe it or not, it’s just a cheap Schwinn rack I found. I wanted something simple and it just works. Thank you for watching!
Nice video. Next time film a little bit more of the serting up, specially with the metal added to the stem😊
Will do! Thank you for watching!
