How much boss?
no one just sets up a place like this.
like anyone else I wasn't expecting an advanced manufacturing video
a set up this advanced means only one thing
they feel scooters will be the
primary means of transport for a whole demographic,
for many generations,
Awesome 🚀 🚀🇵🇱 Love it
they have a great product and love that passion, my self in 2005, founded an electric scooter company, and it is a great pleasure see our baby born and get alive.
Love it, I think its your best video so far
Finally you’re back 😄
Yup, we've been quite busy and a lot of work went into this. Going to be more regular now that this is done though. 👽🖖
I would like to see Rion make an electric unicycle to their design, engineering and manufacturing standards.
With a controller running VESC-based software.
That would be fantastic!
You already asked them just that, did you? 😄
There are many requests for EUCs by Rion in this video, I agree and hope we can work with them to make one. 👽🖖
That would be EPIC
Yeah the VESC tool app is fantastic for programming the Luna Cycle Ludicrous V2 controller. I can only imagine what it could do for an electric UNI.
id like to see a bike lol
@@AlienRides Gonna wear a sign that says will work for an EUC lol if they make one lol
Excellent How it’s Made episode
Thank you! First time trying something in this format really, hope we can do more in the future. 👽🖖
Anything with Rion in the name will bring everyone's attention!
ye
Hah, it is an attention grabbing scooter and name. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides True! I loved the shots and the editing of the video! This was your best video yet, keep up the good work!
True craftsmanship and commitment! Far far away from the rest. And believe me It worths every second of the waiting. I’m loving every day more my Thrust.
Indeed, they really care about their product! Glad you are loving your thrust. 👽🖖
My goodness this is amazing workmanship and on a WHOLE OTHER LEVEL! than any other scooter makers. Thank you Kevin, Gal and RION for this great video.
Completely agree, they do a great job! Happy to bring this video to life. 👽🖖
Truly one of the most enjoyable to watch on this channel. Rion is like the Koenigsegg of the scooter world.
Always glad to see AlienRides come up with a new vid. 😁👍👍👍
Thank you, we put a lot of effort into this video. Koenigsegg of the scooter world.
Id say it's more of a UAP than a regular stupid petrol burning pos. What most of us grew up with reffered to as a UFO.
Welcome back. Great feature. Really liking the new logo!
Thank you! This one tool a while, but glad to be back. Lots more good stuff coming up. 👽🖖
Yay! You're back. The scooter looks awesome
Yup, we've been quite busy and a lot of work went into this. Going to be more regular now that this is done though. It's the best looking AND riding scooter in my opinion. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides This is amazing!!! Def worth the price. 👍 🌟 👏
That review of manufacturing process was amazing. I wanted to see how they build these and you delivered it to us. Thanks. These are the Bugatti build of the scooter, hand-made in-house. I am impressed that they use *thick* copper plate to connect the batteries together.. that will reduce resistance for the maximum current flow without creating much heat. The engineering is awesome they really paid attention to detail in every aspect of it.
Thanks! I agree that they use some killer techniques to build the battery and scooter. No one else even comes close yet. 👽🖖
With the tools Rion has at its disposal, they could transition into electric trikes, recumbents or motorcycles. It’s similar to what the IPod did for the iPhone. By establishing a platform for their product they can diversify if they are willing and able to do so.
Epic! Nice edit man!
Thank you, this was a fun one to make. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides I could tell! 😉 keep setting the bar high! 🛴💨💨
That's what I am talking about.😊👍 I was waiting for this video Thank you.... Keep it going!!!👏
Thanks, I'm glad we could deliver! 👽🖖
Awesome video! Thanks again, Alien Rides! 👍👍
Thank you for watching! 👽🖖
great video guys!!
We are taking a picture of this comment 😂
That’s a first ❤️🙏
Thanks for the awesome video. Someday i will also own Rion and can enjoy the ride.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope you can try a Rion some day, it's an awesome machine. 👽🖖
Great job on the video man , really enjoyed this
Thank you! Glad we could produce this behind the scenes look. 👽🖖
Hey Bro I am a fan of you so happy to see you make another awesome video i’ve been coming back from work every day clicking on your channel to see a new video noticed you haven’t been uploading started to feel very sad so I started to watch all the previous video that you uploaded and I enjoy it a lot keep making awesome video I love your channel I love all your content
Thank you very much! We got a bit busy at the shop, then this video took a very long time to produce. We're back into the swing of things though and should have lots of good stuff coming out regularly now. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides can’t wait to see more of your awesome video when I come back from work now I’m very happy it’s something that always look forward towards when I get back home from a long day
I started off with a gotrax gxl v2 after a few months I upgraded to a yume s10 and just got it yesterday. But in the future this will be my holy grail for electric scooters
Awesome! Everyone's gotta start somewhere and I hope your scooter works out well for you. Ride safe! 👽🖖
@@AlienRides it definitely is! I tested the waters on it yesterday and topped it out at 30MPH dual breaks and shocks are insane. It's a whole new world for me lol.
One of the best e-scooter reviews I have seen on TH-cam. The Rion is the dream scooter for me and anyone serious into hyper scooters. Thanks for the very in-depth review on this ammazing scooter but also the company and how they are built. It reminds me of my favourite bike brand "LOOK" which I own two of. Their craftmanship and attention to detail not to mention their own unique design and patented products like the single carbon crank and their pedals as well as their entire carbon frame is very special.
Thank you! We were thrilled to be able to present this close up look at these incredible machines. 👽🖖
Wow my man, I was waiting for anything Rion related 😆🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥
Mine is supposed to be here in maybe a month still
My hunch is that it might take a bit longer, but let's see. It will be worth the wait either way! 👽🖖
@@AlienRides yeah I think so too. I’m mentally prepared haha. After watching your in depth video I can finally understand why. It’s great to actually see how they’re made. I’ve added the Curve on my Re90 after watching your other videos. I didn’t know the Thrust was actually their latest model when I ordered my Re90. Oh well
This was truly beautiful
Thank you, we had a blast making this. 👽🖖
Regarding how electric motor controllers work, I learned many of the missing details I have desired to know but lacked the knowledge of the terminology to ask the right questions. Amazed by the forward thinking engineering that goes into their controllers, I was also blown away at learning about the remarkable workflow processes that are involved in every aspect of building these magnificent machines. Clearly this team has the vision, the resources and the skills to bring the Future here for us to experience Today. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for sharing your takeaways. 👽🖖
The dream scooter. Cali love. This is some detail n quality.
They do a really great job for sure. Looking forward to seeing what they come up with next. 👽🖖
Love you’re content bro, great job!
Thanks for stopping by. 👽🖖
AMAZING.... pure passion
It's awesome to see passionate folks talking about what they love. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides indeed. Its nice to see behind the scenes at rion motors. We can apprieciate the amount of work and expertise that goes into making these beautiful machines. 🙏
On this episode of "How it's made"... oh wait its Alien Rides... Cool Video
👋🐄
" freedom and performance " that says it all i wish one day to be able to have one of this amazing machines .
They are really great machines, hope you can try one some day! 👽🖖
Nice! Constant innovation=great!
I agree, they are way ahead compared to the rest. 👽🖖
These are sick! I need one in my life lol
Welcome back! Been busy I see! I’d love to take a ride on one of those but I’d wear full motorcycle gear.
This episode took a lot to make, but we're going to be more regular from here on out. 👽🖖
I have a 40mph dualtron much slower. And i wear full motorcycle helmet, jacket, gloves, shoes.
I'm happy that RION has such a long wait time to get a scooter because it prevents me from giving into my temptation to drop way to much money on a toy 😂
Hah, glad you can save a few bucks in your wallet.... for now. 👽🖖
I’m at 9 months and still waiting
@@myplaxismodelisbetterthanyours You're still waiting? I'm at 22 months and going to sue them.
@@silvercrystal3 bro, I'm still fuqin waiting. Been 2.5 years. I email monthly and they say the same thing "it's almost ready" fuq those guys. I'm pissed
@@myplaxismodelisbetterthanyours update as of September '23..
They start to deliver now..finally. How have you been dealing with your matter in the meantime?
The built quality is in different level
I agree, they do a great job! 👽🖖
Yeah but it has very low range
@@tankwilliamson1903 not really actually, it’s got more watt hours than a dualtron thunder.
@@AlienRides yeah but a dualtron thunder is 3000 plus not 8000 plus for 8000 I would expect at least 90 miles for range.the dualtron x2 goes 70 and it has massive range plus bigger tires signal lights phone charger lights all over the damn thing for 7000 if I paying 9000 at least 90 miles per hour and at least 80 miles range
This sparked so much joy and passion in me. I have dreamed of making my own scooter from Carbon Fiber and forging my own battery. Seeing how Rion is manufacturing these scooters was such a treat. Great video Alien Rides Cheers!
⚡️👊🙏
Thanks, glad we could produce this in-depth look at Rion. I hope you make (or buy) the scooter of your dreams. 👽🖖
What a great video thanks
Thanks, we had fun making this. 👽🖖
Finally the most badass video ever.
Thanks man! We put a lot of work into this one. 👽🖖
Amazing Craftsmanship producing Amazing Machines/Scooters..
I agree, they do a really great job. 👽🖖
Great content 👍
Brilliant video and insight into the worl of Rion. Thanks for sharing and good to see you back out and about. You've been missed
Thank you, we put a lot of work into this video and will try to be more regular from here on out. 👽🖖
Dang bro ever since I sold my go fast scoot and got into the rc hobby heavy I haven't looked back... Maybe it's time to get a rion... Cheers bud good to see the channel gaining ground!! Good stuff and congratulations!!
Thank you! We are gaining popularity and our website is doing well these days. It's funny how the RC and scooter hobby intersect, many of my friends are getting into RC and leaving scooters these days too. 👽🖖
Sick! Rion for the win!
They are awesome for sure! Need my carbon fiber lazy jacket 👽🖖
Soon 🥷✌️
I love the amazing freedom of my wolf warrior but damn I've gotta get a Rion one day! Amazing vid 🙌
Hope you can try one some day, it really is an amazing machine! 👽🖖
Great video great details great scooter by far thee best in the world! I had a$2350 svett 9+ and even that could go up a long Steep hill at 40 mph and i weigh 185lbs so i can hardly wait to buy one of yours for $7000 U.S it really is the Rolls Royce of stand up scooters by far! It even looks sexy and im not afraid to go 80 mph because your crew built the RION R90 so well and it keeps getting better and better! From Arnold litke Canada🤪👍💪
Waiting on their electric bicycles.....someday, I hope.😀
Same here, they would make an awesome electric bike! 👽🖖
Love the roller throttle.
Yeah, it's a really good throttle for sure.
so for example, using a basic number for the sake of the question, if rion claims a top speed of 60 mph on the apex, is that with field weakening or is field weakening something that allows the scooter to be focused purely for top speed thus increasing past a claimed top speed.
I feeling in love with the *Rion RE90* 🤦👍😁
Badass hyper scooter!
Literally the Pagani of the PEV world!
I agree, it's an incredible machine. 👽🖖
Great video 📹👍
Thank you! 👽🖖
Super reportage ❤️
👽🖖
i wish i had money got giving wolf warrior i wish i could buy this for speed love how fast i go on the wolf but this thing would be insane
It's great having an entry power scooter to get used to riding. Maybe some day you can upgrade to a Rion. Ride safe! \👽🖖
14:38
Full respect for this guy!
After this video, Tesla is gonna go after this dude.
He knows his shit, I would love to hire him some day. 👽🖖
Thanks a lot for making this. The riding tips helped me out a lot. I just got the Wolf Warrior King, and on max settings, it was almost non ridable. I had to tone down some of the settings and am still tinkering with them to get the best ride I can. Cheers.
Awesome, and congrats on the new scooter. I'm sure we'll do an even more in-depth riding technique video at some point. 👽🖖
Liked .. 😀 from Portugal 🇵🇹 Porto 🙌🏼
Woohoo, on holiday? Have fun!! 👽🖖
@@AlienRides oh yea. The business mandate I take it.. 😁 will be back and refreshed 🙏🏼
I so want one of these scooters!!!
They are really great rides, hope you can try one some day. 👽🖖
I've been consuming this video like a chocolate milkshake from In & Out LMAO
Great stuff man, love it! I'll be watching it again and again. I wish I could drop 10 more likes on youtube but hey, Keep them coming
Thank you! But now you made me want a milkshake. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides 😆😆 sorry not sorry
Amazing
They doa great job on these. 👽🖖
Now I’m in love with Rion and I want one.🤗
They are incredible machines, hope you can try one some day. 👽🖖
Thanks for the in-depth look.
Will Gal and RION be making an EUC?
This is the question that many are asking. I'll work on that and let's hope that they do. 👽🖖
All of this is amazing. But I've been waiting for my Rion RE60s since Dec. 2020.
Rion: It's fast, a Tesla of scooters and it is handmade so it's a Rolls Royce of the scooters :)
looool the comparison with tesla is absolutely fake. Rion didn't have any inovation regarding electronics, motor, controller, is just an assembly of Chinese composants (i speak about electronic). And the power is in standard of the performance of big scooter. Nothing more.
A Rion is definitely much faster than any other "big scooter".
@@AlienRides Please do a real comparison based on fact. Put a dragy on a Rion (60S, thrust,..), put dragy on another big e-scooter (WEPED FS, Weped SS by fastride, maybe the nami viper ) and will see. Since many years all the community are waiting fact chek.
@@fredericpierron6999 we did this with a dualtron x before, but I have a nami coming so let’s do it again!
@@AlienRides We all known that the X is big but not powerfull... The nami is not sooo powerful but i think will not be faraway than a RE60. The 60S is higher voltage so the battle will be hard for nami but interesting.
I never saw a Dragy comparison. Maybe i missed it but if not you should spend some bucks in order to have a real point of comparison.
And for sure the Weped are in front...
wouahhhh just need to get the money lol .....love it already
It's an awesome ride, hope you can try it some day. 👽🖖
Amazing amount of information for the Rion. It would be cool to have one of these days.
Thanks, this was a fun one to make. Great riding with you this weekend!
@@AlienRides It was cool meeting your family!
they hate you cus they cant be you... keep making bad ass scoots bro
This company is definitely going to put out a lot of really great stuff in the future. 👽🖖
Awesome
They do a great job! 👽🖖
This is the most informative videos I've ever watched regarding electric scooters. Thanks for this! I'll keep my fingers crossed for a RION carbon fiber EUC!
Thank you very much, we are hoping to produce a EUC with them in the future. 👽🖖
Awesome video! Also, can you review the Vsett 10+? I ordered one a few weeks ago and would like to see your opinion/review of the scooter.
Awesome! We're definitely going to be making a lot of vsett videos since we're offering them on alienrides.com. We have a two year warranty if you didn't order from us. 😉👽🖖
@@AlienRides Good to hear! Thanks for everything you do for the PEV world. I'll be sure to visit your PEV repair shop in SF if my Vsett ever gets a flat or needs a tire change.
Where can I get the small Aris speed controllers? I build electric skateboards as a hobby, and I would love to try a couple of those controllers in a build.
Thanks in advance
I think they're not available yet, but I'm sure they will be available from Rion in the near future, and we will likely offer them at pev.works too
I have become a fan of these scooters. The craftsmanship and detail which goes into making each part is just amazing. Great video on RION Hyperscooters.
Yeah they do a really great job producing this scooter, and I can't wait to see them unveil their next machine. 👽🖖
The iPhone of scooters! Kavod!
I agree, it's a very polished scooter 👽🖖
Fantastic video! Do you know what the release date for the Noir is and what the price will be?
I don't have those details yet unfortunately, but I hope to make a video on the release!
PLEASE , tell them to make an euc!! It doesn't even have to sell for mass production....but just to show those , present , makers what a REAL performance machine COULD be!
I would love a RION EUC for sure. I'm going to work on doing that!! 👽🖖
That is all we need in a EUC. Quality! RION EUC would be Cali legit.
I was looking at the Harley Davidson Livewire. Glad I saw this first. Better in every way at 1/4 the price. Good job Rion! Shut up and take my 💰
Slightly different use case than the livewire, but I think you would love it! 👽🖖
@@AlienRides Slightly different use case? How so?
@@cablecutter12 I guess they both get you places extremely quickly, the rion is just ultra portable, and maybe more convenient, but not as versatile than the lviewire? Would love to review the livewire some day though.
What amazed me is wtf is the cells with that massive controller? How they fit enough to go 30+ miles and look so sleek and sexy is amazing
Yup, that frame is packed to the brim with technology. 👽🖖
i made 3500 kilometers with my Kaabo mantis Pro and its wery good electric scooter, even after 3000 kolometers it works great as it was first day riding it
That's awesome, glad it's treating you well. Here's to many thousands of more miles. 👽🖖
Think im sold on this Rion, will start saving up. I prefer to buy made in USA.
Il top di tutto,oltre non c'è niente 🛴😀
I agree, it really is a great scooter. 👽🖖
Nice
Sick wid it
👽🖖
Numero UNO!
👽🖖
So you’re duel welding pressure point technique on your batteries, the temperature at peak will always be higher then the temperature generated by the electrical flow from the batteries correct?
Temperature peak yes, but you want it as fast as possible which is why TIG welding is better than spot welding, which is better than soldering. 👽🖖
think we really another one of these videos soon.
rion apex with them twin 250r controllers and field weakening activated will be pushing that lil beast well past 90 mph.
“A little more mass production” bruh, been waiting 11 months. Feel like I got scammed
Dang, that's a super long time to wait. I hope you get your scooter soon, it's worth the wait. 👽🖖
Felt the same way..... But when it came...OMG!!!!
@@AlienRidesnever came. Filing a court claim now. The company is not delivering to anyone anymore. Total scam
Rion is on a level all its own. Love the video, and owning a Rion one day is on my bucket list.
They're doing some pretty amazing things for sure. 👽🖖
Seriously? It's less than $8k. Maybe $8k including safety gear. Just order one. And it won't even waste one of your garage spaces. Downside is it melts if gotten wet, so be constantly checking the weather forecast.
@@cablecutter12 I'm in the process of buying a home, so this will have to take a back seat and remain on the bucket list for the time being.
Are you an idiot..? You’re acting like paying $8k for a scooter is a walk-in-the-park 😂
@@SheepEatingDuck for a scooter that you can take ANYWHERE (aside from long distances) basically a replacement car to bring back simple groceries with increased fun
Great video, beautifully edited and Rion looks like a brilliant company - I will buy one of these scooters in the near future (willing to wait)....
Hope you can try it some day, they're great machines! 👽🖖
Even though I won’t likely ever be able to afford one since it’s so over my budget and I was very skeptical at first because of the high price, asking my self how can it be so expensive, well here I have the answer.
Seeing the manufacturing process and all the specifications of the scooter plus the reviews from all the lucky owners, I must say…
hats down RION your scooter is (among scoters) like Vacheron Constantin or Audemars Piquet among wrist watches.
Magnificent, bravo 👏👏👏
Thanks for stopping by, we were happy to bring these insights into the manufacturing process to light. 👽🖖
Nice makes me think my turbowheel phantom is slow😂lol can’t wait to own one of this one day
Turbowheel makes some fun scooters for sure, but I hope you can try a Rion some day, it's a game changer. 👽🖖
Goddamnit, now I'm going to have to buy a Rion.
Hah, I think you would like it if you got one! 👽🖖
Your music is dope....
Thanks, we have fun making these. 👽🖖
i hope we get more video with the guy that was explaining the sine wave controller. he gave such clear and precise information about complicated things and made it very understandable.
I agree, he's very knowledgeable, we will definitely feature him in more videos. 👽🖖
Hey in a 1 mile race, in a complete straightway road. Which do you think would win the RE90 or the Weped FS? Both being riden by a 150Lb rider.
Banging episode well worth the wait. Looking forward to the upcoming content.
Thank you! This one took a while, but lots more good stuff in the works. 👽🖖
French idea for an European in house hyper-scooter custom manufacturing process in the heart of California. No wonder RION has become such a household name. The Bugatti of the scooter world.
Thorough, thorough review. Tons of info. Best scoot insight of any manufacturer anywhere in cyberspace. Kudos #AlienRides 😉👍
Thank you! Happy to bring this kind of detailed insights into production to life. Maybe it will provide some justification for the cost and wait time. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides More than justified. Is a window followers could see through. The technological development, the hardware, the effort, and craftsmanship involved in the creation of this amazing EV at the leading edge gives answers for the higher cost.
Zamm, I need one of these just to scoot around 30mph in style!
You do, everyone does in fact! 👽🖖
2:44 Bat Scooter!!!
It is! 👽🖖
I love this Video Kevin... This Video answers all questions and should quail all the naysayers with FACTS.
Thanks! It was super fun making this. Looking forward to checking out your bronco vids. 👽🖖
@@AlienRides will do Buddy. Hope to live up to your great example.
Epic
Thank you! 👽🖖
Hey man. If I get a 5000w 72v motor. How many amps controller should i get and the current set up?
100 amp or so should be pretty good if possible. You'd be pretty darn fast. 👽🖖
I like seeing how battiers are made for scooters and e bikes
Who were the 40 thumb down peps......? I waited a long time for this and even wined my ass off but I am so glad I waited!!
Glad we could make this, there will always be some haters. 👽🖖
More perfection is not possible
Now for the people
That's nice ❤
