    Great video!
    I have a Sondors fatbike and I am nothing but impressed with it. My only regret is not waiting to buy one even longer in order to get one of his newer models with a better motor and more gears to make hill climbing easier.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hopefully they will start offering upgrades for earlier models. Maybe you can contact the manufacturer with this question.

      I'd like the Sonders, but would swap out those 3" tires for 2" or 2.25

    . Sondors -- is Cheapest but looks very good. Price 600 USD and SHIPPIN G about 200 USD
    Rad Mini 6:41, looks good and has front and back possibility to instal Big Baskets. so it is the Shopping bike or travel bike ...with the affordable price of about 1500 USD.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well, pricing is and probably will be the biggest issue for these novelty items. Also, have you seen that Sondors have just released a new, folding bike model?

    Stealth weighs around about two sacks of rice! It will weigh drastically lesser if we replace all it's batteries with ultracacitors as instant recharge & instant discharge means of power source, and great torque on the wheel!

    Here are some great electric bicycles that you can already buy. Are there any other great other bikes that were possibly missed?

      Love the Dutch vanmoof! Was looking at their non electric bikes about 4yrs ago, made from aluminium. Just wish they was cheaper,I ended up with a Byocycle city speed ,had it 3yrs now it's a nice bike!

  • @Heavie486
    @Heavie486 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I owned the radrover #9 since thanksgiving 2016. Only rode it three times. I keep saying, I'm going to ride it today. Every morning as I leave the house and never make it. I might as well sell it, to some one who would enjoy it better than I do.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      But what seems to be the problem? Not used to the technology?

  • @pauls5745
    @pauls5745 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Sonders - looks like a heavy beast. better not run out of juice!
    DRT, Brinco - ouch! hey Dad, can I borrow 25k?? ok how about just 5 ?
    Bolt - simple and very cute!
    VanMoof - needs a smoother look, frame is ugly lol
    my top pick -^RadRover - go get it!! - a best buy as of July 2017*
    G12H so sexy in the right color scheme. ohhh jeepers it's 9k!
    SUV yeah, you said it. massive

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Great comment that summarizes the video, but I would say that all of these bikes are pretty cool, however, each one is targeted for a particular wallet-size.

  • @alexandergunshooter964
    @alexandergunshooter964 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Why not replace all the batteries by ultracapcitor banks? This way the biker will have longer mileage and you don't need to ever recharge since no batteries.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      You should share your idea with the manufacturers of these bikes. But I think that were are not at this stage of technology development yet. If it were possible, it would have been done a long time ago.

  • @kawasakiman8965

    Unfortunately, the city bike theft problem has not yet been solved.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well, it's the same as with cars. Some of these bikes have high-tech tracking systems and smartphone sync, so you will be able to track in afterwards in some cases. But protecting your property should involve a combination of traditional and modern measures.

    SHIPPING 70$,TOTAL PRICE, 900$.GERMAN HUB POWERPLANT.THEY NOW HAVE AN ALUMINUM FRAME. COMPLETELY SATISFIED.THE OLD SAYING,YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU GET DOES NOT APPLY.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great to hear from a satisfied customer. I will have to feature this bike in my future episodes and include these optional features. When you were shopping for an ebike, what were the major competitors for Sondors on your list?

  • @ybarkawi

    All the bike that have brushless motors after two months of riding the spokes become loose and woobley, the rim starts to make noise. I would not recommend this style but get the mid drive system

    • @automotiveterritory

      I agree with you. But still, there are so many people, who are willing to pay more for exclusivity.

    Too bad Audi did not launch their bike into production. The best looking one of the bunch IMHO. Looks like BMW is taking their spot with their line of ebikes.

      BMW did launch their electric bicycle, I am planning to use it in the upcoming video.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I doubt that any product is made without the significant market research. So if the product is here, the client base is there too. Although the price does look high.

      I couldn't say that it's a reasonable choice but the market of high end and exclusive vehicles will only continue to develop.

    Electric bikes should be prohibited to ride in bike lines and should be put in motorcycle category.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Why so? They aren't much faster than regular bikes but less slower than motorcycles.

    • @thexardas8395
      @thexardas8395 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Don't get me wrong I am not against Ebikes. I actually like them alot and don't mind people using Ebikes for transportation and recreation in certain areas but in a big city like NYC Ebikes are nuisance for everybody. I ride a bike in NYC for last 20 years. Delivery people and idiots on cheap ebikes riding in bike lines are annoying as hell especially today when citybike program tenfold amount of new riders.

    • @automotiveterritory
      @automotiveterritory  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is where the authorities have to step it. E-bikes seem to be a borderline case, as they are too fast for bike lanes but could also cause trouble by driving too slow on public roads.

    • @RickyG225
      @RickyG225 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Most of the ebikes being ridden recklessly in NYC are by undocumented delivery workers that work for restaurant delivery services. They are the ones that are disrupting NYC traffic and giving ebikes a bad name. The majority of ebike owners ride responsibly IMHO.
