I would agree bar end mirrors are definitely the way to go. When I drive a bike without mirrors I feel I'm blind. I'm used to driving a motorcycle so checking my mirrors occasionally to see what's coming up behind me is second nature.
On the Burchda website I noticed in the picture of another bike having the same mirror, that they were mounted on the underside of the handlebars giving clearance to see past the rider's arms. I've seen that done by many bicyclists as well.
I love watching all your eBike and Scoot reviews. Even when it's not my style of bike I still watch because I love the vibes. Your antics and out-n-about style are awesome, and the hill climbs, sand, and the fact that you're taller (I'm 6'6") lets me see how bikes look on someone that's not Micah from Electrek. LOL. - One gripe (IT's not on you dude!) is that these eBike companies need to get some COLOR in their machinery. Seriously. Give us like 6 or 10 or 20 colors to choose from. Paint and Powder-coating is something I know a bit about, and it's not that dang difficult to offer more colors.... Besides I'd happily pay another ~$50 to $100 bucks for a seriously kick-ass colorway. Anyway man, thanks for another fun one.
I recently picked up the RX80 for the sale price $1149 and it came with the better quality components found on the RX30. I have the 48V 20AH battery and have been 36 miles on pedal assist 3 with this bike. Hills are no problem and I have taken it on some rough logging trails. Love this bike and have over 500 miles on it in about six weeks.
You are correct. The best type of rear view mirror is the kind that mounts in the end of handlebar, all 3 of my bikes have that kind. This bike actually looks pretty good for the price.

You seem pretty positive about this bike for the price. I guess I would have to agree. It's hard to find full suspension 750 watt fat tire bikes for this price with a decent battery too. 👍 You didn't seem to mention if you ghost pedal at 28 mph or not.
Good deal, even if the rear suspension is bad(at this price range, this shouldn't be a problem), you have the ability(the frame) to change / upgrade to a better one :). The speed and stuff is already good
I literally just bought a TT-E-bike, full suspension 1k watt motor, 4/26 inch tires for $899......... amazon. Burchda aint the cheapest. They also gave me $100 for posting a review.
Idk man, I think at that price I'd be looking at the Ridstar moped style, similar specs with the slightly larger battery or possibly the Jansno x50 (if you can catch it on sale). Folding ebikes remind me of something you'd see grandpa order from a JCWhitney catalog, but space saving is not a useful factor to me so I might be jaded.
Bike died in 3 rides, fighting to get a new controller so I don't have to box it up and send it back for my $1400. Loved it for the first couple of rides. Don't do it now
For dual suspension e-bikes, are we suppose to loosen the bolts a bit to help the suspension below seat post flex. I was watching a video and someone mentioned that. I’m still new to this stuff.
For those who were bothered by the mirror positioning... On the Burchda website I noticed in the picture of another bike having the same mirror, that they were mounted on the underside of the handlebars giving clearance to see past the rider's arms. I've seen that done by many bicyclists as well.
Dec 2023 I bought a Dual suspension 26 inch Fat Tire 1000watt when first ad came out at 899$ 1080 total of tax shipping etc. in the AiLife . The E bIKE IS powerful alone for I added another front motor making e Bike a 2400 Watt Fat Tire EBike. Week after I bought the price jumped to 1200$ I notice the first ads of a product posted usually gets the lowest prices before increasing, notice this and why Amazon wants ppl to browse more, these new ads do get you a lower price , just browse more.
So glad you did this review! I got the RX50 with 1000W beast.. and it handles hills without any issues. No suspension on the RX50. Its a fab bike and a monster man bike. Me being a 5 ft 5 woman it took me a while to get used to it. I not a professional cyclist but use this to get me too and from work... it more than does the job
Nice review!! Would love to see a review of this bike compared to BeeCool Adventurer which is also a soft tail and powerful at same price on sale or currently offered with extra battery and trailer…
I just got one of these direct from China to Australia. Mine has a 1000W motor which is great for towing the trailer for the offspring :). Mine doesn't have the full crown front suspension though, and the rear suspension is like a rock so I have ordered a different adjustable shock.
Bosch, Shimano, Yamaha, Brose....etc should enter the street ebike market with throttle capable mid-drive motors. Having a real MTB frame with a mid drive throttle for true dual use trial/city commuter bike.
This might be a stupid question but how do you clean them? I have a jetson bolt pro just to play around with until I get something bigger and the chain is pretty sandy. I wasn't really sure how to correctly clean them or if it's even safe to spray it down.
Do any of you guys know anything about assembling the Wired Freedom? Matt, when I saw you build yours, your stem was already outward in relation to the fork. Mine is INWARD but the fork in facing outward like it should. Loosening the two bolts on the side didn't free it to spin free from the fork. No installation instructions and Wired isn't answering my chat on their website. :( Can't put the handlebars on yet.
Hi, I have a question, to my knowledge a lithium ion battery only gives full power after 3 to 4 charging discharging cycles. do you take that into account or do the batteries come cycled ? many thanks, Igor from Belgium
Hello tailhappy, Now with Black Friday deals, I would greatly appreciate your opinion On the best for the money, full suspension fat tire,26x4, light mountain biking, - haokie cheetah, vitilan T7, Burchda rx80, wired, and others you might know. Thank you!!
How can you reach such a speed? Im limited on 25km/h on assist 5. Living in Denmark, got it from the official site. Is it possible to remove the limiter?
I know this might be off topic but I live in Culver City and want to ride out to the beaches and not worry about range. Do they have places in the Venice/ Santa Monica area where we can top up? Or should I get an adapter and use an ev station?
Is there enough slack in the handle bar wiring to swap to a motocross style handlebar to raise the stance? And in your opinion, is this a good first ebike selection east coast Florida beach riding?
you could use a stem extender to raise them a bit. for beach riding, it would work, depending on how deep of sand you're talking. I try to show every bikes sand riding ability on my channel that I review so you can compare if you are looking t other bikes too.
Hi there, I am interested in this bike However, most US companies do not ship bikes to South Africa (where I am). Can you assist me source this bike (I assume that it is a Chinese product)?
Same as my ride 66 rxo2 Same seat same phone holder which I love same charger with leaf and same s2 display (password 1801 for 9 levels of PAS and unlock top speed of 67 khp) manual said rx???

Me being one of the people that got to run a MIG pulse welder before Lincoln electric released it for retail sale. The weld is almost as strong as TIG welds but can be done much faster. So yes that is good. I’m thinking of getting this bike just because I found it on Amazon for $899 + $300 shipping but mah
I liked this bike, I keep watching TailHappy reviews to find my dream 26” bike that can pull hills out here in Eastern Oregon. Not quite there yet. But the research is fun. Stay dry the next couple of days buddy. Love what you are doing. ❤
What?? I just finished watching this video today and I just noticed the signs on that life guard post you always go by. "Keep our beaches HATE FREE??" "Dial 211 to report hate!" What the heck??? Like that's more important than safety. Even preventing litter on the beach is a more important issue than offending some hypersensitive person somehow. This is why I don't live in California. They need to get their priorities straight.
transition coin/ching sounds are a bit off-putting, its a bit to loud and seems to lag in the actual transition. I am not trying to be mean love your reviews! I want you to improve and grow to 100k subs!
I do enjoy your reviews, and you’ve done a ton of them. Considering most of the bikes coming out of China ( are the same ) sone with better parts. Most unfortunately not. Another great review
The only bolted areas that a person should install or loosen the bolts with a power drill are the water bottle mounts and the bottom bracket. I only use (let alone, a 6 Volt power drill, to loosen water bottle mounts-saving on time) the rest should only be tightened with a torque and or hand tighten the bolts on a bike.

I’m guessing he did?
The problem is almost certainly a very cheap battery with low grade generic cells good for maybe 100 charges if you are really gentle about it.

Idk man, I think at that price I'd be looking at the Ridstar moped style, similar specs with the slightly larger battery or possibly the Jansno x50 (if you can catch it on sale).

30 mph, very very good torque. @@joshpointoh
This thing is underpowered for a large fat tire bike
@@TheMxxpower Where is your video review
Are we just going to sit here and pretend that you didn't throw at hatchet at the TV lol
They ship all over the fucking world but not Canada. This is absolutely exhausting.
Excellent review what a great value
The bike looks really great. With the 2 mirrors at the front and the light it looks like a moped again with the 2 mirrors and the light at the front.
1000W needed for the extra weight.
Nice ride - love the beach scene and the Cali Incline!
I bought 1 got it adjusted to go 50 mph I love it.
Please tell how!
Something tells me he's gonna be using that tv as a jump in the next video.
I thought that he was going to destroy it with that hatchet😅
Hahaha
I had to move the brake levers in and put the mirror right next to the grips to get a good view
Loved the way smashing your tv over a dumb stunt didn't seem to faze you !!!!!
Bike died in 3 rides, fighting to get a new controller so I don't have to box it up and send it back for my $1400.
Loved it for the first couple of rides. Don't do it now
Nice videos.... Can you try the Ridstar Q20 please?
I have had mine for about 4 months I can't do more than 25 miles range on it and I use the pedal assistance
sheesh. Thx for the info

No throttle restrictions for me. Nice review. Thanks.

I just bought the Burchda R5pro. Its good.
Looks great for the price, now its is $1149 only!! I would pay a little more for a Torque sensor though. Thanks for all the info and review.
Bosch, Shimano, Yamaha, Brose....etc should enter the street ebike market with throttle capable mid-drive motors. Having a real MTB frame with a mid drive throttle for true dual use trial/city commuter bike.
I'd compare this to s18 aostirmotor.. the 750w version. I run the 1500w.. and it is indeed monster truck as a bicycle.
How's it holding up and how's it do off-road ?
I'm looking at s18 snake camo for hunting ?
It's good they provide mirrors, a must on ebikes imo
Great video, I love watching your reviews. Can you please review Jetson Warren All-Terrain Electric Bike. Thank you in advance.
I wish we could get these at that price in Australia. Anything that is dual suspension here is at least 5 or 6k
I do like the mirrors.. If the mirrors overhang the handlebars then you have to worry about them catching on something...
This might be a stupid question but how do you clean them? I have a jetson bolt pro just to play around with until I get something bigger and the chain is pretty sandy. I wasn't really sure how to correctly clean them or if it's even safe to spray it down.
Did the mirrors last? I can't even figure out how to put mine on although I do that the Burchda R5 Pro

Did you try the bolt on the very top? It might be under a small rubber cap? Loosen that and the stem should turn!

Still missing the CHEAP part 😂😂😂😂
What e-bike would you recommend that has a 500 watt motor? I’m in Canada and can’t go past 500 watt
Hello tailhappy,
Now with Black Friday deals, I would greatly appreciate your opinion On the best for the money, full suspension fat tire,26x4, light mountain biking, - haokie cheetah, vitilan T7, Burchda rx80, wired, and others you might know. Thank you!!
What is the best e-bike that’s fast with long range?
How can you reach such a speed? Im limited on 25km/h on assist 5. Living in Denmark, got it from the official site. Is it possible to remove the limiter?
Which one is more better RX 30 or RX 80?
Will you be testing the Ride1up Gravel Roadster soon. I want your opinion.
I see this in the pics for the Damson Rx80 on Amazon I’m not sure if they rebrand it or if they rebranded it for Amazon specifically
I would like to see a review on the rx 30, 30 ah battery. I'm looking for a bike with range.
Very good review
I know this might be off topic but I live in Culver City and want to ride out to the beaches and not worry about range. Do they have places in the Venice/ Santa Monica area where we can top up? Or should I get an adapter and use an ev station?
I'm 6'3" with a 34 inch inseam. How does that work? You must have a long body.
Is there enough slack in the handle bar wiring to swap to a motocross style handlebar to raise the stance? And in your opinion, is this a good first ebike selection east coast Florida beach riding?
you could use a stem extender to raise them a bit. for beach riding, it would work, depending on how deep of sand you're talking. I try to show every bikes sand riding ability on my channel that I review so you can compare if you are looking t other bikes too.
What app is that you use to track your data when riding?
Strava , I just started using it myself , it works well.
Try the mirrors upside down so its looking underneath your arm...might help
I wish you'd review the Engwe X24. That's the bike I'm seriously considering purchasing next month
i think he did already
Hi there, I am interested in this bike However, most US companies do not ship bikes to South Africa (where I am). Can you assist me source this bike (I assume that it is a Chinese product)?
Do mirrors come with the bike

Selling one of these. Done less then 200 miles. From west midlands England. £850!!!

How many TV's have you broken (so far)?! 😆
Reviews been up awhile but does anyone know if there's a usb charging port anywhere on this bike?
I'm trying to buy the TT 26-in fat tire dual drive 3000 watt can you help me
Hi Tall happy you still haven't painted your wall yet ?
I am interested in this model I would like to order it from a warehouse in Europe. Can you handle this?
amazing ebike!

Check out the Wired Freedom.
1000 watt motor (2000+ capability)
60volt 20 Amp battery
40 Amp controller
100 NM torque
Full suspension
26×4 tires
35 + mph
$2000 for wired freedom
@@johnforbes9007 indeed. I’m watching this one. Excellent suggestion.
would be a great value if it had 29" wheels

Pretty wild that the battery got so low considering that I've seen you ride 14.5Ah bikes and come back after 20 miles with more range left.
typically when I have a bigger battery I just use it more to go faster instead of cruise at slower speeds to extend range
How does this compare to the Nomad 1?
Nomad 1 is better
Second best after Police Activity!😂
I didn’t find a place to put the coupon code in.
How can I purchase this in Canada?
Is it better than the weird freedom?
No
The standard mirror doesn't work, you don't see anything, it shows your hand because it's short.
Pretty far from the cheapest full suspension fat bike. Varun sells one for $789, there are a few others in that price range.
transition coin/ching sounds are a bit off-putting, its a bit to loud and seems to lag in the actual transition. I am not trying to be mean love your reviews! I want you to improve and grow to 100k subs!

I am so confused between this, freedare saiga and aostirmotor
Onde é essa cidade ??? Qual o nome ??? Obrigado
Destroying that tv for no reason. Eh
How tall are you? I’m 6 ft just wondering if I’m to tall for this size bike
I’m 6’-2” and it’s fine for me.
Pedal test with no power?
too heavy
Lot of people traffic. do you ever hit someone?
Once you ride a bike with a mirror you will wonder how you ever rode without one.
The only bolted areas that a person should install or loosen the bolts with a power drill are the water bottle mounts and the bottom bracket. I only use (let alone, a 6 Volt power drill, to loosen water bottle mounts-saving on time) the rest should only be tightened with a torque and or hand tighten the bolts on a bike.
what kind of money do you have to be buying all of these toys
are you looking at yourself? grips, mirrors and then brakes.
