@@Steely_wire54 I got a reply from them on Amazon , they said “A: Hi, This ebike has a top speed of 50-60mph. We have a celebrity video showing that it can reach 55-58mph. This depends on the rider's weight, road conditions, weather, and the battery level of the ebike. FreegoDirect-Ebike SELLER · 1 day ago” But they never gave a link to a “celebrity” video..
@@Epheli.@Epheli, that sounds about right. It makes a lot of sense. There are a lot of conditions: this bike is dealing with a hilly area and the rider weighs 260 pounds. It's windy, and he uses the brakes a lot while trying to ramp up, which cuts the power to save the pads or motor, or whatever it is that the power cuts off on the e-bike I have now. You can unplug the brake cable though, so it doesn't cut power.
I preordered the EKX X21 Max on Alibaba which is the equivalent to this Bike. Got a great deal...now the waiting game starts. I confirmed with the manufacture directly for EXX and he said the display can be changed. They might have forgot to send you the =/- controller. We need more videos dude! Ive been coming here everyday. With all the Surrons being impounded and banned, this bike with pedals is looking better and better. You are the goat.keep it up
@mannymonroy you are right. No remote for display settings. Also syccyba x21sport on russian market comes without it. But comes with front fender. And my seller from alibaba send me fender
Hay man got it late yesterday by 4:00 this morning I was gps verifyed at 50 it seems to hold you there cuz I was picking up speed all the way and at 50 it stayed. And to tell you the truth that's fast enough " sketchy"!
@@mannymonroyMy brother got a 50 mph scooter and has already fallen twice. Thankfully, he was wearing his helmet both times. I've ridden the scooter up to 45 mph uphill without a helmet, which was really stupid. But man, you definitely need a helmet at that speed. People tend to underestimate speed. Even 30 or 20 mph is fast, so if you fall, it's no joke.
@@mannymonroy and you can see I'm commenting a lot. I've said I'm going to keep coming back. I'm just too excited, and seeing that it goes over 50 is just even more exciting I've said before I only weigh 160 165 so I'll be flying on this thing.
Let's be honest guys, in this over-pricing ebike era, $2,399 with all these settings (3000wmotor+controller, frame, battery! brakes, fork, suspension, wheels+tires), the price is pretty crazily reasonable! I have been trying to build a similar setting bike myself but that will at least cost me $2,900 (before tax), conservatively.
@@mannymonroyyou will also have like 90% less chance to get into trouble with this thing compared to a Surron. There is no way you can comfortably ride a Surron on the road or in a park, at least in my area, but I'm pretty sure this thing will be fine on the road.
You are absolutely correct that anything under 3000 for a bike that can go 50 mph is a good deal. So their is no reason to have misleading pics. The bike will sell on that only. So why can't they just take some pics of their bike and put it on their website. That is not hard to do. I know I'm not the only 1 who would be upset about getting a bike that's different than advertise. Those full twist throttle can be dangerous if your not an experience rider especial when your talking about a 60v bike that goes 50 mph.
The EKX 21 is literally the same bike with the same specs and $600 cheaper. Like they didn't even bother to change the frame or anything it's an exact carbon copy of this bike.
Yo right now the Freego F3pro Max is on sale. Great cruiser bike. I bought one last year. It’s dual motor, dual battery. Great range and good speed. Goes up any hill. Only $2300. That’s almost 700 off. Highly recommend.
I could have gotten a talaria, Surron whatever I wanted, but I ordered this bike specifically because it has pedals so cops can’t bust my balls! They are strict around my way! So for the price not a bad value I thought!
@@geraldf9651where do you live? Because I live in Texas and I’m not sure about getting the talaria xxx or this but I think the talaria looks better and is more reputable
Was supposed to get mine on the 15th apparently there's some sort of problem and it could be weeks before I get. Thay tried to give me a different bike I said hell no. Thay wanted to give me an f3 I think totally apples and oranges kind of exchange. that are not being easy To talk to , anyone know what the hell is going on.
This bike is an absolute beast. I’ve had it for about 2 1/2 months now I can tell you when you first get it you’re gonna be excited and want to put it together put the handlebars on and get riding I can’t stress enough take the Allen wrench and screwdriver set and tighten down every single bolt on the bike. Even the ones that come pre screwed in. Be patient and take your time and dial in the front and back brakes. I’m telling you the bike will not squeak or make any noise. It’ll sound like an electric car. People on bike pad will not hear you coming and I’m telling you right now that it is the most fun machine that you will have. It jumps and wheelies just fine. It’s got an insane amount of torque. It’s faster than the talaria. Battery last longer than the Surron. My only complaint is the suspension. I wish it was a little bit bit better but if you’re a smaller lighter guy, this bike is going to be so much fun for you. Trust me when I say Freego was insanely pleasant to work with I had some trouble with my charger and they sent me a new one. I can’t say enough good things about this thing. Whether it be a daily commuter and adventure bike or even just a toy for around the ranch. This bike is perfect and everything that you could want.
@@GoatEditz4 I average about 52 mph when in SPORT mode just ripping around town if I need to keep up with traffic otherwise I’m conserving the battery and just doing about 38-40mph in ECO mode for anywhere between 3-9 hours if depending on how hard I’m riding it. I have yet to come close to draining the battery and I’ve abused this thing
idk if people get or know this guy weighs 260 pounds weight plays alot especially in electric even on gasoline bikes on amazon say speed may vary depending on road conditions weight etc so that saying this guy has reached 44mph and 46 mph downhill both times he stopped ramping up so I definitely think this thing gonna get to 50 mph if not higher if u weigh under 200 pounds
@@robertmair1682 I definitely think it will help. Both times he braked, it cuts the power to the battery and has to ramp up again. You can unplug the brakes so it doesn't cut power. I did it on my 500-watt e-bike.
If anyone wants to see more of this bike, check out these guys' videos. It's true and can go over 50mph if you weigh under 170-160. I definitely think you're going to get closer to 60mph. Happy riding, guys! I can't wait to get mine this July. I ordered a cool tinted triangle helmet and nice shiny silver metal pedals. I don't know, I want to pimp it out in some way. Just excited to go flying around with this thing!
There's no way getting up to 60... not sure what size the controller is they don't specify on the website. But just judging from what I've seen other bikes with similar specs high 40s is the norm
Thanks for providing the videos. It was nice to get some additional information while waiting for my order. I just got my FreeGo X2 today. I charged while assembling it, but couldn't wait for a full charge before testing it out (maybe 80%). I set up a GPS speedometer on my phone to compare with the bike speedometer. I took it on a 1 mile stretch of straight and relatively flat paved road. I read 88km/h on the bike speedometer, but the GPS Speedometer app maxed out at 49mph. It seems the bike speedometer is a little off. I'm about 185lbs btw. I thought I would share for other like me who are looking for some additional info/feedback.
@@mannymonroy thanks. This was a good follow up video. Someone mentioned it was 43 up a slight hill. You should do steep hills speed and completely flat if you haven't. Also, is this like a 7 speed bike or something? Any shifting involved?
Thanks for the updates man! Would you mind I ask what's your weight? as well as any idea what is the actual controller maximum amp? to achieve the 6000w maximum motor output, the control needs to be 60v and 100amp maximum current (50amp nominal for the 3000w normal output) .
I’m 260 pounds, I feel like it pulls me very well even uphill. Not sure about the amperage, I’ll see if I can see any info on the charger brick when I get home.
@@mannymonroyI’m debating about getting this since I really want a dirt bike style ebike that can go 45-50 and has some good torque for hills and light off road but the talaria I want will get the cops attention immediately I think but idk about e-bikes in texas
brake squeal... when you were fixing your rotor the rotor may have been contaminated and got on the pads. you're supposed to use gloves when handling rotors to avoid getting fingerprints. some people remedy this by sanding down the rotor and reinstalling with gloves and replacing the pads. you can also try isopropyl alcohol on the rotor but if you use the existing pads the squeal might not go away.
Good to know! Thank you. I actually just ordered some new 180MM rotors from alibaba. I feel like I tweaked that poor rotor so much I just want to start fresh. I also got some cool red screws to match the red accents on the bike haha. Perhaps I should spray some brake cleaner on the pads to remove any contaminants from the old rotor?
I ordered it on Amazon, waited one months and get nothing! First they said the item is shipped, my money was charged from balance, next Freego said it will be shipped next month and two more month to wait. I try to cancelled my order and there is no way to do so, money is not refunded.
LOL get your money back, and just deal with the Alibaba supplier of this bike EKX. Freego knows nothing about this bike, and you are paying extra for them to dropship this bike to you with their name on it. Thats what I did, and I saved a lot more then buying from freego.
@@dbf16. I'm kind of annoyed that I have to wait 2 months. But if you check the comments, this guy ordered it 2 months before he received it, which is about the same as what I have to wait. I ordered on June 13th, and it was supposed to come out on July 15th. However, they texted me saying it's a low batch or something, and it's going to take until August 10th. I'm pretty bummed, but they took $100 off. If this guy and another guy got theirs, I'm not too worried about it being a scam.
I had an order in and canceled because I needed to see a review. Specs I saw no bike even close plus it’s light weight as well. I’m just fat so I know it won’t hit the 50-60mph
I actually just completed a DIY peg conversion. I just used my old pedals as temporary "pegs". I am waiting for my real new pegs to come in the mail still: th-cam.com/users/shortsQnGU40i2o_g?feature=share Those pegals look really pretty! But At $360, they are a bit too costly for me. I just ordered a $10 harley davidson shift peg part that is compatible replacement part to the threads where the current crank attaches. I'll post a video of them soon, I think it can be a good $20 option for someone to go from pedals to pegs quite easily. My option will look more like surron style foot pegs.
Escooters and ebikes are very different when it comes to pricing versus speed. You really can't compare the two. Majority of ebikes out there that gets close to 50mph are around $4k. Takes a lot more material to build ebikes than a scooter and the weight is 30-50% more, which affects shipping costs.
Manny!!! updates would be helpful. There are a lot of questions that need to be answered, which is the main point of making a TH-cam video. The release date has been postponed to August 15th. Can you reassure everyone?
Ty manny you have been awesome getting back to me,,,ima gal who loves all bikes and I have motorcycles too but I never get responses for the motorcycles,,,so ty again
Is the one you have a review unit or some kind of early demo model cuz its different from the pics on their site. You also got yours earlier than may 31 which is the release date on their website. The pics show a half twist throttle which is what I want and it also has turn signals and the + & - buttons controls on the left side. That's the bike I want and if they send me the one you have then i'm returning it. Reply
Lol the pictures online are not entirely accurate and what you see here is Exactly what you'll get. Those controls you referring too are Only on the previous, slower model.
@@rawdigga2k10just about everything with this bike is "false advertisement". Pictures for new products like this aren't always exactly as they seem. They're a mash up of the previous model and the one you'll get, which Manny has shown. No I don't. But I have asked countless questions to Freego and EKX and know absolutely everything about this bike now lmao.
I ordered mine on May 2 for the June drop on the 15th then I got an email saying that I would not get my bike until the July drop July 15 but on my confirmation for my delivery it says the bike is assembled packaged and labeled for the carrier to pick up and that’s on May 5 so now they say I will get it after the July drop on the 15th so I don’t know if I’m supposed to receive the bike on the 15th or they’re sending it on the 15th tired of waiting!!!
I was thinking about ordering it until I saw the top speed my top speed on my bigniu bgx top speed is about 43 but I bought the bike for 1500 bucks, introductory
Read comments dude I've legit said this guy weighs 260 getting up to 46 mph so I definitely think it can go 50 if not mid 50a hopefully even if it just does 50 that really good for the price
How long did it take for you to get the bike and on freego website they say its a pre order so do i have to wait till it is not a preorder to get it Please answer
@roberthealey1033 and idk if people get or know this guy weighs 260 pounds weight plays alot especially in electric even on gasoline bikes on amazon say speed may vary depending on road conditions weight etc so that saying this guy has reached 44mph and 46 mph downhill both times he stopped ramping up so I definitely think this thing gonna get to 50 mph if not higher if u weigh under 200 pounds
I just realized they sent it from the factory installed backwards. I just flipped everything around and the bike feels much roomier without the handlebars as close to me
Hey manny I would love to know how to put pegs instead of pedals on my ebike. I don’t pedal much and I heard you mention pegs instead of pedals. What do I need to do and how do I do it. Where do I buy the pegs
Nice vid man, just wondering if you knew that you installed the handle bar mount the wrong way, it seems like your a taller guy and if you mount it correctly it might be a better fit for you.
Dude thank you! I ended up needing to flip the bar and mounting plate around and move the throttle and stuff from one side to the other. That part was preassembled and came backward from the factory 🤦♂️
Thanks for the update Manny. I'm curious if the sprocket is big enough to allow you to pedal at top speed or is it's to fast. In other words, what point does the motor out power the pedals. Thanks
I need to replace the brake fluid because the brake is super spongy. What do I do for that? (Regular bleed with dot 4 fluid? and what rotor did you get for this bike? Where did you get it? I can’t find these brakes anywhere online.
Ah yes,The EKX K21 is actually the first bike of this style I saw. I almost bought one off Newegg. Later on Alibaba, I saw for sale a EKX X21 "Max" version that actually appears to be a more 1:1 version of the Freego bike in terms of specs and 3000W motor.
How is for riding wheelies? Throttle response quick enough? powerful enough? And does the seat sit far enough back? U know if any way to attach pegs to back axle area? Please respond
@dbf16. you have one and you commented a month ago about wheelies, but you haven't mastered the wheelie yet? You give up or what.. and where did you see someone wheelie this? Please link if video
hi. I'm only going off the battery and controller information from the manufacturers website.60 volts x 30 amps = 1800 watt/hours 1800 watt/hours divided by 20 watts/mile = 90 miles. (potentially) Probably running in eco mode, and a little pedal assist on your part.
How does is drive with the chain/pedal delete . I’m cinfused how it drives without having a chain? I wanna get this and remove the pedals and chain but don’t want to destroy the bike
Thank you very much for the continued review. I know that you were hesitant to take it off road but do you think the suspension is capable of handling full speed on bumpy terrain? I'm afraid it has the same suspension set up as the previous model that's only intended to go 30mph...
It honestly feels very capable. The rear shock is adjustable and I feel like it does a lot to absorb bumps. I’ll try to do some more and extended off roading in my next video!

Ugh, so only 43~MPH? For $2500? Man, wired freedom can do 40~ish for 2k or the slightly cheaper clone of the wired freedom. Disappointing. But, I feel like something definitely is holding back top speed on that bike man. With an 80A controller, it should be doing 4800W, which is waaay more than the wired freedom's 2400W~ peak. A heavy AF super soco vespa style scooter with 60V 3000W motor can do 50MPH~ so I was expecting something similar to that. Wonder if your display can show amperage being pulled or wattage. If that's a direct drive motor, it might need statorade injection to perform optimally. Might need amperage unlock. Or the BMS on the battery is possibly holding back performance? Check controller temperature as well possibly.

I’m 260 pounds, I feel like it pulls me very well even uphill. Not sure about the amperage, I’ll see if I can see any info on the charger brick when I get home.
Controller is only 80amp. You'll never get the full 6kw advertised. More like 4800w.
@@nortizz thats still good. The original x21 only had 28amp controller and couldnt even reach the full rated 2000w of the motor.
@@mannymonroyI’m debating about getting this since I really want a dirt bike style ebike that can go 45-50 and has some good torque for hills and light off road but the talaria I want will get the cops attention immediately I think but idk about e-bikes in texas
So an advertise sixty miles per hour but goes forty two
brake squeal... when you were fixing your rotor the rotor may have been contaminated and got on the pads. you're supposed to use gloves when handling rotors to avoid getting fingerprints. some people remedy this by sanding down the rotor and reinstalling with gloves and replacing the pads. you can also try isopropyl alcohol on the rotor but if you use the existing pads the squeal might not go away.
Good to know! Thank you.
I actually just ordered some new 180MM rotors from alibaba. I feel like I tweaked that poor rotor so much I just want to start fresh. I also got some cool red screws to match the red accents on the bike haha.
Perhaps I should spray some brake cleaner on the pads to remove any contaminants from the old rotor?
@@mannymonroyhey man the rotors should be 203mm!
I ordered it on Amazon, waited one months and get nothing! First they said the item is shipped, my money was charged from balance, next Freego said it will be shipped next month and two more month to wait. I try to cancelled my order and there is no way to do so, money is not refunded.
What do u mean when was all this??
LOL get your money back, and just deal with the Alibaba supplier of this bike EKX. Freego knows nothing about this bike, and you are paying extra for them to dropship this bike to you with their name on it. Thats what I did, and I saved a lot more then buying from freego.
Their website says it’s not out until July 15
i think the amazon listing is not real i saw someone else have the same thing
@@dbf16. I'm kind of annoyed that I have to wait 2 months. But if you check the comments, this guy ordered it 2 months before he received it, which is about the same as what I have to wait. I ordered on June 13th, and it was supposed to come out on July 15th. However, they texted me saying it's a low batch or something, and it's going to take until August 10th. I'm pretty bummed, but they took $100 off. If this guy and another guy got theirs, I'm not too worried about it being a scam.
I had an order in and canceled because I needed to see a review. Specs I saw no bike even close plus it’s light weight as well. I’m just fat so I know it won’t hit the 50-60mph
Haha I know the big boy struggle myself. I am 260lbs for reference. Check my new video: th-cam.com/video/3LUdrPv9Z-4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ErcMYiqz6ELWSJtg
This may be better than a surron reason why because there is no connection between the motor and the bike no resistance so that gives it more power
It’s legal with pedals in New Jersey⚡️⚡️🤘👍🏽
Plus no tax and free delivery
wish there was a way to measure the torque on this vs something like a surron or talaria. I want to ride off-road and send jumps!
Freego claims the motor has 200nm of torque vs the Surron’s 250nm.
talaria will be a lot better offroad, doubt this one with a hub motor will be great.
You could probably put pegals on it for that peg question. Those transform from pegs to pedals. Pretty cool design.
I actually just completed a DIY peg conversion. I just used my old pedals as temporary "pegs". I am waiting for my real new pegs to come in the mail still: th-cam.com/users/shortsQnGU40i2o_g?feature=share
Those pegals look really pretty! But At $360, they are a bit too costly for me. I just ordered a $10 harley davidson shift peg part that is compatible replacement part to the threads where the current crank attaches. I'll post a video of them soon, I think it can be a good $20 option for someone to go from pedals to pegs quite easily. My option will look more like surron style foot pegs.
Great video. 43MPH for over 2,000. I bought a Evercross H5 scooter $549 and I hit 45 MPH full battery.
it goes 55+ if your under like 180
What this guy said and it's 2 different things lmao try goin on off road on bumpy trails with a scooter u can do alot mote with a bike
Yeah but its a scooter lmao
Escooters and ebikes are very different when it comes to pricing versus speed. You really can't compare the two. Majority of ebikes out there that gets close to 50mph are around $4k. Takes a lot more material to build ebikes than a scooter and the weight is 30-50% more, which affects shipping costs.
When you wrote that I immediately looked at the shadow and yeah hes a big boy!
🦍
Manny!!! updates would be helpful. There are a lot of questions that need to be answered, which is the main point of making a TH-cam video. The release date has been postponed to August 15th. Can you reassure everyone?
Thank you so much for staying tuned to my videos!
@@mannymonroy no problem. Should anyone be worried? They pushed it back to August. I just want it already. I can't wait, man!"
In Virginia as long as you have pedals on an electric bike it’s street legal not sure about cali
👍🏽 that’s all the speed you need. It looks like a pretty cool bike. I might be ordering one still waiting on my P51 to come this week.
Ty manny you have been awesome getting back to me,,,ima gal who loves all bikes and I have motorcycles too but I never get responses for the motorcycles,,,so ty again
The bike nominal is 3000 watts just cut the green ish blue wire and it has a peak of 6000
Impossible 🤦🏽♂️ the controller is only 80amp
@@nortizz cap
@@ModMaan lmao ok kid 🤦🏽♂️
@@nortizz 80 amps can handle up to 19,200 watts
Great vid. The speedometer is about 5km/h too fast. I don't know if it can be adjusted without the control buttons though. 80km/h is 50mph.
Is the one you have a review unit or some kind of early demo model cuz its different from the pics on their site. You also got yours earlier than may 31 which is the release date on their website. The pics show a half twist throttle which is what I want and it also has turn signals and the + & - buttons controls on the left side. That's the bike I want and if they send me the one you have then i'm returning it.
Reply
Lol the pictures online are not entirely accurate and what you see here is Exactly what you'll get. Those controls you referring too are Only on the previous, slower model.
@@nortizz Well if that's true then that's false advertisement. The bike should be the same as shown in the pics. Do you work for the company?
Yeah agreed. You will likely end up with what I got.
@@rawdigga2k10just about everything with this bike is "false advertisement". Pictures for new products like this aren't always exactly as they seem. They're a mash up of the previous model and the one you'll get, which Manny has shown. No I don't. But I have asked countless questions to Freego and EKX and know absolutely everything about this bike now lmao.
I ordered the bike on may 2 and it was a presale and said the bike would come bye June 12 or something like that
Need a range test. One done in eco. The other in sport.
Coming soon!
Would love to review this bike!
Will you be reviewing this ebike soon ?
@@Reciorichard64 well they haven't told me they would send it to me. if they do I would love to.
I ordered mine on May 2 for the June drop on the 15th then I got an email saying that I would not get my bike until the July drop July 15 but on my confirmation for my delivery it says the bike is assembled packaged and labeled for the carrier to pick up and that’s on May 5 so now they say I will get it after the July drop on the 15th so I don’t know if I’m supposed to receive the bike on the 15th or they’re sending it on the 15th tired of waiting!!!
That sucks man, I hope you get your bike soon! Check my new video in the meantime: th-cam.com/video/3LUdrPv9Z-4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=FZfmv0xqKT5lMVrp

@@geraldf9651did you end up getting it?
I was thinking about ordering it until I saw the top speed my top speed on my bigniu bgx top speed is about 43 but I bought the bike for 1500 bucks, introductory
Your bike ugly
So it doesn’t go 60 like advertised on Amazon ?
Read comments dude I've legit said this guy weighs 260 getting up to 46 mph so I definitely think it can go 50 if not mid 50a hopefully even if it just does 50 that really good for the price
@@Milly560Dossy why would I waste my time in the comments dude 🤣
@@Reciorichard64 and?
@@Gnazzty well ur sit and ask like a goof when there info on the site amazon and in the comments use ur brain dumb dumb
@Gnazzty and u say u don't waste ur time in the comments yet u read what I said and took ur time to comment imagine that😂😂😂
How long did it take for you to get the bike and on freego website they say its a pre order so do i have to wait till it is not a preorder to get it Please answer
Also wondering about this pre order, would love an e bike for under 3k so this seems like me !
@roberthealey1033 it's a pre order I texted freego and they said it will be shipping the 15th
@roberthealey1033 and idk if people get or know this guy weighs 260 pounds weight plays alot especially in electric even on gasoline bikes on amazon say speed may vary depending on road conditions weight etc so that saying this guy has reached 44mph and 46 mph downhill both times he stopped ramping up so I definitely think this thing gonna get to 50 mph if not higher if u weigh under 200 pounds
Do you know the name brand of batteries been used? Is it only a 2A charger included. Website says there's a special edition for July?
No "special edition", no different than what you see here. It's just temporarily discounted.
@@nortizz what's the better choice freego x2 or the goat ebike?
The goose neck is suppose to go the other way.
I just realized they sent it from the factory installed backwards. I just flipped everything around and the bike feels much roomier without the handlebars as close to me
Wow, lots of juice for that Ebike,I would love to test ride it myself and see how it handles,thanks.
Hey manny I would love to know how to put pegs instead of pedals on my ebike. I don’t pedal much and I heard you mention pegs instead of pedals. What do I need to do and how do I do it. Where do I buy the pegs
Bro title is top speed when bud is too scared to get on the road that’s so wholesome 😂
Lol in my most recent video I push it harder. I was scared with my shitty helmet that didn’t fit! Also nice last name, are we distant relatives? lol
I bet if you would tuck when going for top speed you would get 45-46mph. You were sitting straight up and that will slow you down.
That and he's 260 lol shi will be perfect for a 160 150 pounder wich is what I weigh I ordered it yesterday and excited asf
Day one of asking for upgrade recommendations and ways to cut the brake sensor because I just bought one
Check out my new video!: th-cam.com/video/3LUdrPv9Z-4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_Te9lkGv16ergOD1
Thanks for the videos my friend. One question: is the battery removable for charging?
I don’t think it is, I never found a way to.
Te comentaron algo sobre la salpicadera delantera? Porque no la incluyeron?
Throw some slick Road Tires on it. It will cut down on drag and road noise
Thats an upgrade I want to do in the future for sure!
MANNY GIVE US A UPDATE BOSS
Just for you my man!: th-cam.com/video/3LUdrPv9Z-4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ErcMYiqz6ELWSJtg
Just use your phone for gps. I love that bike wish i had the money to grab one before this tariff runs out and shit goes up 25%. Nice buy
Thanks manny got the screen to work but haven’t put it together yet and don’t know how to get the battery out
I believe you must use the included you to unlock the battery under the battery door. Once unlocked you pull it up and out.
But you dont need to pull the battery to assemble it!
Nice vid man, just wondering if you knew that you installed the handle bar mount the wrong way, it seems like your a taller guy and if you mount it correctly it might be a better fit for you.
🤯 I’m going to have to take a 2nd look when I get home, I might have done just that 🤦♂️
@@mannymonroy yeah just compare pictures of your bike to the websites pictures 👍
Dude thank you! I ended up needing to flip the bar and mounting plate around and move the throttle and stuff from one side to the other. That part was preassembled and came backward from the factory 🤦♂️
Thanks for the update Manny. I'm curious if the sprocket is big enough to allow you to pedal at top speed or is it's to fast. In other words, what point does the motor out power the pedals. Thanks
Around 30mph you cant really keep up with pedaling. I have since removed the pedals: th-cam.com/video/3LUdrPv9Z-4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ErcMYiqz6ELWSJtg

Se puede usar como una todoterreno? Puede hacer saltos o no?
Company just emailed me and said not june 14 but july14 i get
My bike!?
Y
Did you reverse the front stem on purpose for easier reach to the handlebars?
I need to replace the brake fluid because the brake is super spongy. What do I do for that? (Regular bleed with dot 4 fluid? and what rotor did you get for this bike? Where did you get it?
I can’t find these brakes anywhere online.
I have a similar bike but less power it's that X21 Electric Bike. Have you seen that version?
Ah yes,The EKX K21 is actually the first bike of this style I saw. I almost bought one off Newegg. Later on Alibaba, I saw for sale a EKX X21 "Max" version that actually appears to be a more 1:1 version of the Freego bike in terms of specs and 3000W motor.
Which side is the rear brake on? just bought one of these and hoping I can wheelie it. Great video!
left side
How is for riding wheelies? Throttle response quick enough? powerful enough? And does the seat sit far enough back? U know if any way to attach pegs to back axle area? Please respond
@@cirwo85 i’ve seen people wheelie it idk abt pegs
@dbf16. you have one and you commented a month ago about wheelies, but you haven't mastered the wheelie yet? You give up or what.. and where did you see someone wheelie this? Please link if video
@@cirwo85 i don’t have one mine comes in on the 15th
Hey it says pre order only for me how do I not get the speacial edition on July 15???
There is no special. Just special pricing for pre ordering.
Idk me too
Great job Manny!
Manny we need more info dawg
Show how fast it accelerates and the torque?
It has a lot of torque, the acceleration is good too.
What is the range like on this
hi. I'm only going off the battery and controller information from the manufacturers website.60 volts x 30 amps = 1800 watt/hours
1800 watt/hours divided by 20 watts/mile = 90 miles. (potentially)
Probably running in eco mode, and a little pedal assist on your part.
Can you ride it on bike path?
We have a flat rear tire and can't figure out how to detach the motor. Any tips?
Why does it say 60mph on Amazon
How does is drive with the chain/pedal delete . I’m cinfused how it drives without having a chain? I wanna get this and remove the pedals and chain but don’t want to destroy the bike
it has a wheel hub motor and not mid-drive
Is throttle response quick enough and powerful enough to easily rode wheelie, keep in air
Thank you very much for the continued review. I know that you were hesitant to take it off road but do you think the suspension is capable of handling full speed on bumpy terrain? I'm afraid it has the same suspension set up as the previous model that's only intended to go 30mph...
It honestly feels very capable. The rear shock is adjustable and I feel like it does a lot to absorb bumps. I’ll try to do some more and extended off roading in my next video!
@@mannymonroy we extremely appreciate you man!! Foreal, you're really helping us make sure we won't regret our decision to buy. Again, thank you.
Thanks for the update!
Thanks for watching!
Looks better without the fenders.
Why is the July 15th bike (which I ordered yesterday) considered special edition?
because Marketing lol
Hi, how long it took for shipping, they say in their site launching date mid-July. Really interested buying X2. Let me know. Thx
Mine was a pre-order so it took like 2-3 months. Right now its a 1 month shipping time. Please use my link if you decide to get the X2!: www.freegobikes.com/products/freego-x2-off-road-dirt-electric-bike?ref=mannymonroy
Does it have power to wheelie?
i bought one and i’m sure it does, talaria torque is 250 nm and the x2 is 200nm
Can you access anything on the display screen to change anything
Sadly, no. In fact I can’t even change the display to MPH! That’s my one gripe with this bike.
Ooo I forgot to ask where did get the pedals thanks
I got them on Amazon they are similar to these: a.co/d/5CWlYKU
Did you have to cut the government restrictions to make it to that fast
how heavy of a rider are you ?
I’m 260 pounds
I have a question do you think you could add a front mudguard
Probably very easily if I ordered a generic one. I might consider a zip tie and pen sized hole mounting solution.
That was great, Thanks for the ride!!!!
Thanks for watching! 😎
Where did you bought it from? Because i went on the website and it said preorder
Is it available for purchase currently
Thanks for watching! Yes it is, please use my link if you decide to get one: www.freegobikes.com/products/freego-x2-off-road-dirt-electric-bike?ref=mannymonroy
Been curious about this bike. Fast and quiet.
Mine came in mph we complained and got sent one with mph instead
Does the bike have a clutch derailleur?
Awesome video though!!!
Thanks for watching!
What's the range?
Can you remove the battery for charging.
can you use it for exercise or its too heavy?
Is rhat your first ebike?
What's the Range?
Ugh, so only 43~MPH? For $2500? Man, wired freedom can do 40~ish for 2k or the slightly cheaper clone of the wired freedom. Disappointing.
But, I feel like something definitely is holding back top speed on that bike man. With an 80A controller, it should be doing 4800W, which is waaay more than the wired freedom's 2400W~ peak.
A heavy AF super soco vespa style scooter with 60V 3000W motor can do 50MPH~ so I was expecting something similar to that.
Wonder if your display can show amperage being pulled or wattage. If that's a direct drive motor, it might need statorade injection to perform optimally. Might need amperage unlock. Or the BMS on the battery is possibly holding back performance?
Check controller temperature as well possibly.
How fast can it go if you use the pedals also
slower if anything
