- Hello,
In this video I perform a highly scientific range test on a 2024 Wired Freedom. This range test is done using real world riding habits including a mix of pedal assist and throttle. Watch this very riveting video to find out just how far you can expect to go on a Wired Freedom!

To solve Wired Freedom headlight problem get the appropriate size star lock washer and install them where needed.
That headlight gets on my nerves!
I used Jb weld. It doesn’t move anymore
I was able to attach a couple large black zip ties (approximately placed) to keep the headlight assembly rock solid. Black on black it doesn’t look bad (hard to the bubble gum & bailing wire lol)
Never under estimate the power of Lock-tite
Remove it
love your channel brother waiting for my freedom to come, cant wait to get out and do some miles on it , keep up the great work, the sightseeing videos were the best.
I like doing those as well but live about 6 hours away from socal so I can't do them very often
You probably know this, but for other readers here - Besides the PAS level, the C5 program setting also comes into play. C5 set to 3 is the least power consuming setting (current is 1/2 of available current). I'm pretty sure the default is 4. You can test this by checking how many watts you're pulling on PAS one, on level ground... Then check your program settings and update your C5 to 3, repeat. I bet you'll be sipping less wattage. Goes further, but the assist is less so you'll have to ride slower or pedal harder, always a trade-off, right? ;-)
For reference I have my C5 set to 10. Full power!
@@shootthechitSame here. I want ALL the power right away.!
I have mine set to 5 for winter ice and snow with studded tires. back to 10 in spring.@@shootthechit
I live in Washinton state and the weather has only allowed me to have my 2024 Freedom out on the trails inly once. I achieved 36.5 miles range on the day I had it out, mostly power level 3 and leisurely cruising while pedaling. I believe I had my C5 setting at 4. A bit underwhelming, I was hoping for 45 miles max. Next time I’ll set C5 to (3) and see how much more range I can achieve.
@@randym8529I was wanting to take the Centennial Trail all the way into Canada this summer, starting at Snohomish
You pointed out the redundancy on the sign "Illegal dumping is a crime" then you proceed to telling us you're "going to eat food" when you get home 🤣🤣
Stay strong brotha! Love your videos.
The people need to know!
I keep my C5 setting kinda in the middle on 5 with my 2024 Freedom. Did a 26 mile ride with slower ebike friends, so kept it mostly PAS 2 or 3 at around 22mph, and got home with 70% battery still remaining.The Lectric 3.0 had 40%, and the Aostimotor Snake bike had even less battery and was in the red. However, if you peddle this beast 35-37mph on PAS 5 you will flat suck down a full battery in about 25 miles! I found out that one the hard way, got to peddle the last mile home in 1st gear. I live in a fairly hilly area, not a lot of flat ground.
Looking forward to getting my green one any day now! Thanks for all the videos. I believe that the information from the company says pedal assist one is where you get the 60+ miles of range.
Can't wait for the full review. Try to put some foam or piece of inner tube attached between light and fender.
Awesome ride and bike. Trying to decide between the FREEDOM or the Ecell. Both are awesome bikes. That no shipping charge with the Ecell is very tempting.
Can't go wrong with either really
The new Freedom has higher torque, upgraded motor, upgraded suspension and slim secondary battery at no extra charge. The Cruiser got the same upgrades and now has full suspension as well and a new frame design that looks better than the Freedom. Hope that helps.
Good vid, you should do the same route as you just did on PAS 1. That would be a fair comparison.
Stay tuned, I just did a full battery on the 2024 Wired Freedom in ONLY pas 1 and it was GRUELING! Stay tuned for the video this Saturday on my channel!
This video isnt the best of anything but it is entertaining as hell. Kudos to the content creator.
Nice video as usual. Enjoy your channel
Nice "Retaining Wall Jump"!!!! Mt Diablo Footage!!!! And Trailer Park Trailer counting footage too!!! I'm about to buy that bike in the black! Nice content Mate!!!!
My dad worked on them container ships. He worked out of Seattle and did a lot of time going to the far east
Love your honesty and fun vibe , great work. Thank you for the video
Another great video - Thanks for the chuckles.!
You will get much better range if you inflate the tires to 25 pounds of air instead of 18 pounds 😁😉
max psi on those tires are 20 though right?
Even more at 30psi and without inserts.
@@jfly2249 30 psi would make me a bit nervous with fat tires. Like a bomb waiting to go off lol
On my RadRover Fat tire bike its 30 PSI tires are 26" by 4"@@MrT-tn4qe
I do my bike at 29 PSI
@@jfly2249
I really like the bell 😢. It’s perfect when you want to politely warn the people on the bike path. I also have one of them loud electronic ones with a light that also blinks, kinda nice. When I see the young mom pushing her baby unaware, it’s the 140 decibel fog horn😂
Nice , you have a variety of noise makers! I've encountered some people that take up the whole trail and don't even move. Some folks think they own the place
Put a cloud seat on that dang thing and quit putting it off Chit, I guarantee you will smile your ass off, that wired seat is torture, I put the spring post on with the cloud and that Sir is all I’m saying, like a big girls lap, unmatchable comfort.
Best use of town hall in the history of the town.
I really want the dual suspension of the Freedom but I'm only 5'5" and am worried about the crossbar step-over height. I might have to settle for the Cruiser.
I just got the freedom and I'm 5'6" and thinking of getting street wheels bcuz I can barely ride it with these ginormous wheels
when you see helicopters it means you are on the right track, you are directly over the target.
I was thinking of getting tire inserts - to prevent flats. What do you recommend? I really like your videos - THANKS!!!
I view them as almost a must. These fat tires pick up things much easier than smaller tires. My area has a lot of goat head thorns so getting a flat is almost a guarantee
I recommend FlatOut. I wouldn't ride a bike without it. Inserts AND FlatOut, and you'd be invincible.!
Use Mr Tuffy liners, and FlatOut. 16oz of FlatOut in each 26x4 tube. I can not recommend Tannus because they require you air down your tires after each ride or they will flatten out and become thin over time, making them useless.
I highly recommend using ‘Flat out’.
Have been using it well over 1,000 miles now and no issues! If I do ever experience flats again, I will consider the addition of tire inserts but so far, so good!
-16 , 6 inches of snow, Goldilocks is waiting.
get some blue locktite on the headlight bolts and tighten them down harder. mine hasn't moved in 2 months.
Looking forward to the next video
Good video bud I’m a Chithead I like and watch all your videos 😊
Cool Iim looking to get an e-bike for my work commute and go visit my kids about 15 miles away.
I can relate to the changes of a city, I live in Fontana, California about and hour east of Los Angeles my Family moved here in 1974, it was a small town with a big steel mill, lots of farms and grape vineyards with a population of about 40K
now its 210K , the large steel mill was shrunk down turned into a race track and now the race track is being torn up for warehouses, which is the theme of Fontana now all of the old small farms and orchards are going away for warehouses
I have the exact same problem with headlight. No matter how tight u make it it loosens just after several rides for me and flops around
Yea that headlight bracket is awful
@@shootthechit it’s not just this one my Ride1up 700 series headlight did exact same thing. It’s the way they connect them to the front fender is bad design for all e-bikes
Full suspension, knobby tires and I've yet to see anyone riding this style bike off-road. Why????
That bubble bobble tho
He rode with no hands for a good 25 seconds and there was no wobble
14:11 - All the Bald Eagles of the Wired Freedom!!
great video, RAD jump! Have you ever considered reviewing slightly smaller street tires on the Freedom? I'm having a hard time getting used to the fatties hauling the bike around, upstairs etc.
I got 25 miles in gear 4thru 7 lots of paved hills on way to work with throttle on and off and pedaling all the way in assist 1! Not very good hmmm
Loctite for floppy headlights
Nice John Marsh House Footage too!!!! ; )
All E bikes look heavy. I think I have one of the lighter ones and also bought a manual bike even lighter..I just throw it in my SUV..the E bike takes Abit more muscle to lift..nice bike by the way 👍
I know what you mean, the weight can be a bit awkward. Putting this one in the bed of my truck isn't the easiest thing to do
@@shootthechit take battery out and put in bike backwords
Ma Man! You're complaining about bad riding weather. Check out our peachy weather here in Nova Scotia, Canada. I'd kill to have the weather I'm seeing on your vid! 😄
I don't know how you guys do it. The cold can be do-able if the sun is out, but that wind gets me. Not a fan of riding when the hands start to sting
@@shootthechit I personally (and everyone who isn't a skier or snowmobiler) basically hibernate for a good 4-5 months. Super depressing. I'd definitely move to a tropical climate country if I could afford it. I bought the Voro Motors Road Runner Pro last fall and can't wait to get back out riding again. BTW, you should do an unrestricted review on it brother. 😉👍
my 2018 ebike 13.2 a 48 v level assist 1 60 miles with 2 bars left
how did you get the white color? I dont see that option online
Can you do a comparison video with cruiser vs freedom? Curious if the cruiser has any benefits.
Same but the Cruiser looks much better now.
I have an Aventon Level 1 with 4100 miles on it, I can get 40 miles if I stay in PAS 2 and 3, mostly 2, maybe a couple short 4s. It has a 500 watt motor with a 52A battery.
I really like the build quality on the Aventon bikes , they make a good product
This is a good video and I thank you for it.🙋 my question would be to you🙆 is the bike that you are riding on the video right now, the same if not better than the magic cycle pro cruiser??? because that's what I have . I kind of like what you are riding now. My bike is 52 volt 15 amps and 96 Newton?? Of torque. Can you sell me on what you are on .😊
How did you get it in white? I want to buy one but I don't like the colors they offer.
Oh shoot! We’re neighbors. 😂
What’s your top speed on flat ground no wind throttle only with max power settings, and how much do you weigh. I’m 215 lbs throttle only does like 37 mph full battery .
I haven't tried throttle only top speed on a very long straightaway. I got to about 37 pedaling, I haven't been able to get this bike to 40 yet, but I have on my cruiser
@@shootthechit the first day I rode it pedaling I got to 41 mph. It’s lots of fun I still love it even though mine has problems right out of the box. Randomly motor will cut out with both pedal assist and throttle. I’ve talked to Steve and Dan they so far have been helpful trying to solve the issue but it still does it. For example today full battery I try pedal assist it cut out almost immediately, then I throttle only and it cuts out after like 11 miles of riding…. I turn it off and back on then throttle doesn’t work but pedal assist works another 12 miles no problem until battery dies 😂 😭 🤦♂ 🤷♂
Hey Bro, another great and funny video. I really enjoy the ride, No Homo. You really make great riding video's. When I first received my Wired Freedom, the very first thing that I removed was that GAY Bell and I replaced it with the Hornit dB140 Bike Horn, Upgraded V3 Model, World's Loudest Bicycle Horn from Amazon. Yo, keep the video's coming Bro😂😅 Another reason why I prefer your video's, is that you're not Pimped out or Prostituted like the other Ebike TH-camr "Tailhappytv and CitizenCycle". Just say'n
How is a bell GAY? Are there Straight/Bi bells?
@Texasred63 There are Manly Bike bells and then there's bell's for Alphabet people's. Just say'n
Got a notification from FedEx my motor goat ebike is on the way nice to have another powerful ebike with 20 inch tires for when my knee is acting up
Another great video!! Thanks for taking the time to do this for all your 'chitheads' 😂. Curious what your weight is??
I weigh around 240 and I was also carrying a backpack
Whats yur p5 setting, im confused im hearing different numbers from youtubers than i am from wired, wired told me 6 and citezencycle and solor surron says 16... im so confused!
16 was the older model with different cells. 6 is what it should be now
👍
Sounds like the Rsv virus , get all your shots !! ( Youll be glad you did )
That's about half what is advertised. If you really opened up the power I bet it would only get like 20 miles. Fast powerful bike though. If they would put in a torque sensor the range would improve. I have the aventure 2 with a 48v 15 ah battery and pedal all the time because it feels so good with the torque sensor and I always get about 65 miles before I charge. I run tour mode in 7th gear at around 15 mph average.
I really like the quality of the Aventon bikes. You can tell they take pride in their products. Looks like the industry is trending towards torque sensors, but from what I've heard is high powered motors don't work well with them due to surging issues. I haven't experienced this first hand so not 100% sure if that is the case or not.
Makes sense. I can see where that would be an issue. Maybe they could fix if where the bike disables throttle if you pedal and decrease the amount of wattage you get. I know most get these bikes for speed. But I find myself pedaling all the time on the aventure 2 just because it is so smooth. I seen in some reviews from the 2024 CES event that brands like Himiway and hey bike said all their NEW modes coming out will be equipped with torque sensors. I have been watching the Heybike Tyson hoping it gets it. I need 2 folding bikes with good torque sensors to take when we travel because the aventure 2s take up so much room. The sinch 2 from aventon needs a bigger battery and hydraulic brakes so maybe they will update that one. Thanks for the response. @@shootthechit
About how much time riding was that?
Thanks. I enjoyed the video.
According to Strava it was 2:02 moving time, and 2:50 total
*****WARNING***** Viewers of this video may require Dramamine😮
which bike is better for commuting the billy goat ebike or the wired freedom
I would vote for the Wired although I haven't ridden a Billy Goat. That bike doesn't seem setup for pedaling as much as using the throttle.
Hmmm. "So go ahead and give this video a 'LIKE'." Hmmm .........
Another great vid! How do you like that helmet? (Pros/cons?) I come from the road biking side, so I've only had "cycling" style helmets, and figure I should get a more "urban" looking helmet for an ebike...
I really like it so far. Honestly my main goal was to get a helmet that didn't look dorky, especially since I film myself. It was fairly cheap as well, 40 bucks on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C88KQX2Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@shootthechit nice, I’m looking at that and the “Thousand” helmet
I was looking at that one first, and don't quote me on this but I think I heard the one I have is made by the same company to be the cheaper Amazon version. So its almost the same with a few less features and color combos
@@BoardGameCasualChannel
@@shootthechit Interesting. Maybe I’ll order both and see which one I like better. Admittedly, I like that the thousand has the dial adjustment on the back…. Any other brands you considered?
Nah it was pretty much between those 2. The Thousand also has a hole in it so you can run your bike lock through the helmet when you lock up your bike. Pretty cool, but not sure if its double the price pretty cool..@@BoardGameCasualChannel
thanks for doing that chit head, love your videos
Love the bikes, Poverty tourism a lil weird tho.
Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
Where are these bikes made?
China, pretty much every ebike company has them made over there
When you are at the gym do you ride a stationary bike?
Thing with tanus less flats but also less range I’ve heard not sure if it’s true
It would be cool to see exactly how much of an effect it has.
@@shootthechit I can’t remember where I was but I saw a door dasher say they lost aprox 10-12 mi in range when switching but no more flats .
I cant wait to get my GhostCat Bike F2.. That bike will 100% be much better than the Wired Freedom and cheaper
What about it is going to be better?
My friend, please go with the traffic!!
Heck no! Drivers in California are insane. Ride defensively to stay alive.
He's UNRESTRICTED, dude...!
Maybe it’s different than here in AZ, I ride a lot on the street and that to me was cringeworthy. I don’t want him killed.
Too Dane with the amount of distracted drivers (cell phones) who are constantly swerving off the shoulder. Id rather be able to see the car and possibly swerve my bike out of the way instead of gettin his from behind without a chance of saving myself.
There is one section of road if you notice there is no shoulder on the side of the road going with Traffic. I ride it until there is a shoulder on the opposite side then switch over
People like you make easy money and complain about homeless people. Wow.
You skipped so many vehicles that were being lived in lol 35 my but try 47
Castlevania 2
Yep
You passed by my old shop
In Oakley?
@@shootthechit Antioch. That old red brick building on A st. Think it used to be a ford dealership
Jumped A car 🤣🤣🤣
This guys crying about cold when he lives in cali🤦♂️ come east to Massachusetts bro!😅
You mean it gets even colder than it does in California?
YEP!!!! SCREW ELECTRIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ALLL CAPPPSS!!!!!
Funny that you were questioning your narration / speech patterns. Man you're your own worst critic because thats probably why people like your videos in the first place
Haha, It's a strange thing to edit videos of yourself, you kind of have no choice but to notice these things
😂😂😂😂
Why don't you just get a motorcycle? You're riding illegally. You should be in jail. 😀
Jail is getting off too easy, should be sent to the penitentiary
hahaha
What's with pointing out all the people who have no homes as if they were an annoyance to your charmed life? You make money off of TH-cam riding your bike around avoiding Karen's only to be a Kevin. Wow.
Maybe if they didn't spend half their time stealing things, trashing everything they come in contact with, and starting fires I would be happier to see them.
