By far, the best review of this ebike. Cant wait for the rest of the stealth line reviews!
thanks episode!! glad you dug it 😎✌🏼
Thank you for making this video I really enjoyed it and I've been waiting for this for a long time thank you so much God bless you
right on T.House! so happy to hear you dug it and it’s our pleasure. 😎✌🏼
Built mine in my living room and it’s pushing 13,400w, 2680wh!! Still have never unleashed all that scary power! Mine is on street tires for LA riding.
Very Cool review, not much on the TH-cam about these. Bad idea to ride it through the water, I see it died there, they don't like water. I loved these Bikes from the beginning, I saw them in 2011, blew my mind, so I got 2 of them. Black on Black number 226, top speed 63.5 mph, 1580 Wh, 87.6 Volts, Insane, but Fun! Rode it through water like you did, I thought I Broke it. Had to let it dry for 24 hours. Also, do not Peddle when changing Gears! Stop peddling completely, the gears will jam if don't.
Also have an Army Green one, number 491. I have had them for 10 year, still riding them, battery's are getting low. Can't get the 87.6 Volt batteries anymore. As you know they changed the Voltage to 72 Volts, 50 mph, still fast enough.
They Eat Brakes and Tires. That shows the Power and the Weight of these things. I have never gotten tired of them, I still get Butterflies in my stomach every time I ride. The first day I rode one, I did 63 Miles on a single charge, Ten years latter I can still get 30 miles or 50 km at 15 to 20 mph. Like any Gas Tank, the more you throttle it, the more gas you use!
I built my own eBike using a full suspension frame plus two 1000 watt hub kits, a duel 60v 30ah battery, independent duel controllers, misc extra add on components. With all wheel drive and weighing 86lbs it immediately accelerates to its max 46 mph which is limited by hub motor rpm since it’s direct drive. Even with hydraulic disc brakes I invested only $700 and it was so much fun to build myself. I would feel like a fool if I bought that Bomber for 13K. I do like the video footage you presented here. Nicely done. $500 light ROTFLMAO! C’mon Man.
I’ve wanted a B-52 ever since I saw it 7 years ago but for that price there soo many more cheaper options in the $2,500-$3,000 range on Ali Baba with a bigger battery, bigger motor, more range, and come with more accessories for the price of one. I currently have a 8000w v72 42a ebike in view, but the B-52 will always have a place in my heart!
Be careful them bikes due not tend to be the best build quality.
Check out some forms and u will see what I mean.
26:00 for riding action
👍🏼
ty
Thanks
you are at the point!
Thx!
Great video thanks for the review I learnt so about the B-52 bomber I like the fact that it's got a sequential gearbox for pedaling
glad you dug it Wes!
He's reviewing an electric bike and I'm looking at the heavy machinery.
haha i don’t blame you they’re pretty amazing
cool
Agreed
Lol me 2 bro
The drone shots are awesome. Definitely a cool E-bike.
thanks E-Biker Bulgaria!
Finally I been waiting on this lol but good review man, I just put 1000 miles on mine today and its been fantastic!
awesome and thanks Clorox! and wow 1000 miles what’s the biggest takeaways you’ve gotten after all that riding?
Re: front headlights, they are brilliant but you have set them up very messy, the cord is there so you can attach the battery pack to the seat post, the battery pack actually has red LED rear lights on it so on the seat post it can act as a rear light too. You can also go to the effort of threading the cord through the battery pack to make it all pretty.
Overall great bike and well worth the very expensive price tag. Nice work on the review.
hmm. that’s a good point. Stealth advised putting the battery pack on the forks but if i can’t find a shorter cable i might try attaching it to the seat post like you said and threading the cable through the battery compartment. thanks for the tip and glad you dug the review!
silly question but can you still hear that tickety chain sound when the pedals aren't in motion? Like on a mountain bike. Or is it silent when you are going along without any chain sound? I'd like it silent personally haha. or do you even notice it? w
would it make a good replacment for a motor bike to get you 20-30 miles on a journey?
Can you please tell me how to get financing for the B52 in London / 🇬🇧
1:04 Hi, friend!! How is the pedaling system? 🤔 I don't see a chainring connected to the pedals.
Kudos for the Video editing efforts. Nice Video. thanks
thanks Bruce! glad you dug it.
Ebikes will never be a mainstream option with prices like these
Ebikes will, just not high end ones....
Have add motor 150p7 and 140. The walk mode or walk assist is way to fast. Can we adjust it to slower.
not sure you can adjust the speed of the walk mode unfortunately. you'd have to ask AddMotoR about that
Just pulled the trigger on this bike. Got all the bells and whistles for this Alaskan=) Patiently waiting=)
oh right on! what color did you get? you gotta update us after you take it for the first ride and let us know your thoughts. excited for you, Shawn!
@@electrifiedreviews I ordered it back and green"match the forks" And, yes. Will be doing a vid out at the Chugiak Mountains =)
@@electrifiedreviews Also, thanks for the review=) Big time actually. Help me make my mind up and getting this bike. Thanks my man=)
greyp g12 VS stealth b52
which one is the best?
Skip to 26 minutes and fifty seconds.
You're welcome
👍🏼
I love this b52 stealth bomber ebike wish I could get one on finance in London
Buy the frame on Alibaba and make it yourself
This video is fire!!🔥🔥🔥
thank youuuu!
I wish this had torque sensing pedal assist. If too powerful at full wattage...you could just lower the wattage until comfortable. Torque sensing pedal assist is like driving a stick shift. So much more fun. Thanks for this very detailed review. Cheers😎👍
hey BUD WHITE! ya i think that might be a good idea for them to offer a version with a torque sensor... but i'm guessing it's not something they can do because of the position of the V-boxx? glad you dug it buddy!
@@electrifiedreviews yeah, I think you are right. Would love to see reviews on some of the offerings over at Luna Cycles. The different Sur Ron models, foldable bbshd bike, and the Apollo and the Apex would be cool. Thanks for the reply too. Cheers👍
I forgot my password on this bike, do you know if their is a way to change it?
Help I ordered a 3000watt ebike kit wired it up right and it says 06 error on screen
i would recommend checking out some forums for this. you'll probably find some good threads on this.
Sweet christ I can't wait until these things are affordable. What a time to be alive.
DarkStar e-bike is almost the same but much more affordable
I'd debate putting decals on it to give it some character haha. Woud you recommend the bike seat or the saddle seat I am 6ft 4inch
What did you go with in the end? I prefer the saddle seat
The battery looks kind of small... I mean u could have made a way bigger box in the frame to reach a better capacite?
Hey I was wondering if you could do an in depth explanation on how to switch the tires if there is puncture or when the threads wear down and needs replacement.
hey Slim! we'll probably be doing a video on this in the New Year as it isn't the easiest thing to do
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews That’s great to know another scooter suggestion would be Rion their scooter can produce at peak power 21000 watts be interesting if you were able to a test ride that scooter and do an review 😬
@@cheeveka3 yes! i saw that one recently. that thing look amazing. definitely going to try to get a review up on that too.thanks for the suggestion Slim!
It makes me so happy to think of all the rich people that could have so much fun on this bike!
Glad I made you happy 😁 (I'm not rich)
haha or at least those who saved up for one!
@@turbodan78 Yah, who wants to be the richest man in the cemetery
The best costs money, you can build your own for $3k
How do u walk the bike in circles with the rear spinning. Do u press the front or the back breaks.
hey Frank! it take a little practice but not too much.... you can hit the front brakes if you want, but really you just need to lean forward, hit the throttle and kick out the rear end and it will swing around pretty easy
@@electrifiedreviews Wow ok cool Thank you. You explained it perfect I see what you mean.
I've got one that is 72 volt 3000w at 80 amps it is super fast and super Torquay. I'm pushing almost 60 mile an hour on Speed 3, and I've only got $2,500 invested. So that B-52 is a big rip off as far as price goes.
nice! sounds like a cool machine.
I would love to know more about your bike and build. Parts and sourcing. How many miles do you get in a charge? I’m looking to build a bike for my commute and I’ve never built one before
@@Ryanpeech th-cam.com/video/VF5qwiyU5Kw/w-d-xo.html look a this channell
Most of the after market copy frames are not chrome moly and I haven't seen that transmission on other diy builds. Does someone know the maker of that transmission?
From where??
It might be expensive but the power delivery of this bike is amazing. The battery inside the frame is so well secure to the frame. And wiring is very organized not tangle up like the Chinese imitation of the Stealth Bomber. The frame of the real Stealth Bomber doesn't flex like the cheap Chinese Stealth Bomber which is important because it affects the handling characteristic of the bike.
good points Cuong Le!
You can buy nice steel frames or crappy aluminum ones from China...
Does this bike have different levels of pedal assist or is it just throttle?
just throttle
Fantastic video and Brent you really spent the time in the edit suit. Stealth are great bikes. I ride on a custom build Vector Typhoon frame and comparison everyday I chose my Vector Typhoon, over Stealth.
thanks Peter! really appreciate it and sounds like you have a pretty sweet ride. did you build it yourself? how long did the build take?
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews Brent, the build started approximate September. The bike remains unfinished although rideable. Beyond the basics the add-ons and customisations are almost endless. GPS, alarm, locking brake, handle bars, etc, etc. Must add I seen a Stealth B52, yellow frame, etc, and that looked way awesome. Given you maybe work in a mine, and ozzy mine driver earn 100k minimum a year that Stealth is way low cost. :) And why not buy slicks and knobbly tyres?
peter Dorr oh man that’s so cool. i really want to try building one from the ground up but frankly i don’t have the knowledge. could learn of course and if time permits we might make that a video series. but ya good stuff man. you got any videos of this beast? and i will be getting some slicks for this bike too at some point. :)

th-cam.com/video/RHCj4F_Y3N8/w-d-xo.html&app=desktop Bike isn’t complete. Hence, no in-detail description or review.
Hello, what material is the frame of b52? Will it be heavy! thank you
My stealth bomber is made from aircraft alloy 7075
aluminum alloy and it's definitely heavy... about 100 lbs or so
I've done so much research now I have to decide..
it’s a big choice i feel ya.
Get a sur ron x
Very similar specs and frame $6000 Delfast Top 3.0. 150 mile range
This is what I need as a physiotherapist to make me whole again Stroke survivor
Awhile back you did a review of Holly Burn P5. I was wondering if you could
review Scooter brand called, “Dualtron” it is pretty powerful.
hi Slim! we’re actively trying to get some reviews going of the Dualtron line. stay tuned!!
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews Thanks man also check out the Dualtron X there is a dealer that goes by the name of Minimotors USA they are amazing when comes to customer service also the Dualtron X goes as fast as the B-52 and the wattage is over 6000 😊
This bike is about 2k on alibaba including shipping
This is really an expensive bike but I'm not worried about that..... because I own this construction company. Great review!
right on! glad you dug it!
Its realible and very worth the price in the long run.
how long did the bike take to arrive once you ordered it? i'm waiting on one
So how long?
@@kirkvj8330 about a month
does the trhottle work without pedalling?
yup!
The website says $100.95.. what the real price?
What I find missing in all te ebike reviews is. How hard is the bike to pedal without the motor? How far on level pavement could you go before you get tired?
hey Reese! that's a tough one to say since everyone is at a different fitness level, but given the hefty weight of this bike i can tell you it's definitely NOT fun to pedal without the motor.
It depends on how much you exercise but I'm a lightweight person so on slight up hill inclines and more my legs gets tired but the 9 speeds helps you keep speed plus the regen allows you to get power back the moment you start going downhill.
The sur-ron x has the same power and proper weight distribution you just need a smaller rear-sprocket to get more speed.
yup. that's a dope machine too
DarkStar Storm e-bike is better
Come with warranty ? I have $5k and want to make payments
Out of all the battery powered transportation I own (OneWheel XR, Tesla P85D, Tesla P100D with Ludicrous Plus), my B-52 Stealth Bomber is my all time favorite thing I own. It has provided years of reliable enjoyment and I find myself looking for errands to do, just so I can take it for a spin. I bought my Bomber # 305 used for 1/4 of the retail price and couldn't be happier.
hey Cyumadbro! sounds like you've got some pretty sweet tech around the house. very cool stuff. and that's a really great point about getting a used one of these... way cheaper. how has it held up over time? any issues? was it in good condition when you got it? give us the deets, man!
Hey I have a question is there speed limiters on the Stealth Bombers.
it comes with a speed limiter but it can be disabled with a code
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews Is there instructions how to apply the code?
Slim567 I believe you have to speak to Stealth about getting the code
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews Thanks for the info also one more thing say over time when the tires need to switched out would you say that it would be difficult to do?
Just saw this on eBay super fire shame it’s like 3k that’s 2k out my budget for a e bike but damn. Does anybody have any alternatives closer to 1k ? Located in UK preferred for ease of return. Thanks
yea old starter entry mtb bike of gumtree with good brakes and shock for about 200 quid a 2 or 3kw wheel 72v battery and 70amp upwards controller mabe come in at 1 G easy 1200 TOPS donedeal or you can have something aound 500 to 800 quid at 1000w and below as thease stick out like a sore thumb and catch everyones eye like a dirtbike scrambler bad idea for road
i have a few sitting here ready to go.. and also a full suspension petrol friction version better build you're own To YOU'RE LIKING TBH
Price?
Anyone know where those trails are at
this is in California
This one is actually accurate, thank you.
Now imagine having another motor up front!
put a smaller rear sprocket on surron and you have the same thing for under $4000. Smaller though. And louder.
hi man , are you thinking sell this bike?
Great Video.....
Really thought you were gonna pop a wheelie at some point
🤷🏼♂️
Great for a heavy-duty travel bike, pulling a serious foldout-caravan trailer in hilly terrains. I'm building one myself (articulated inline 3-wheeled combination) but with only 2x 250W motors. This Stealth bomber will go uphill while sleeping, what a beast.
i've actually been thinking about taking this camping with a trailer, just like you're talking about. any suggestions on good bike trailers? and how's your build coming?
Is it made of gold 🔥
Wow amazing bike, but for 10000 Plus Suntour cranks ?? Those are for Walmart bikes.
honestly i gotta agree with you on this, Marc. they need to upgrade the cranks.
@@electrifiedreviews its about the only cranks that bolt to the SR suntour Vboxx and they work just fine
Are you kidding me $500 for light. For that price you can have Supernova M99 Pro and that light is in its own category. But everyting else considered really cool bike and great video man
thanks Infinite Agony and ya the M99 is an INCREDIBLE light
what a beast.
hey what’s good, MB! ya it really is haha
25:25 I have a 750W fat tire bike, about 80 lbs. I go through disc brake pads every month. I guarantee with that bike you'll be paying for new pads every 2 weeks given its much higher speed and greater weight. You'll also need to get tire liners, or go tubeless if you can, because getting flats will be intolerable.
You can fit mt7 single pads to the mt5..
Check out the Delfast Top 2.0 . Comparable specs for way less, I feel like Stealth rips people off in contrast.
the Delfast looks like an awesome ride. we're working on setting up a review for that. hopefully soon!
DarkStar e-bike is almost the same but much more affordable
I'm used to a 450 to 550 lb Adventure bike or Dual Sport .. 112lbs should be quite nice
Whats the coil spring rate, my bikes forks feel great, but im damn near bottom out on everything i run over.i got it cranked with all the damper i can get.im only 185
hey James! not sure what the coil spring rate is for this bike.
Could you simply register the e-bike as motorcycle and get insurance to make it street legal?
i believe that is possible yes
Anyone know if the Snapchat ad linked to this video is legit?
would love to have one but you could buy a very usable used electric car for same, but glad this company exists and is building a legend. wish they would build a commuter version and I could scrap the car idea fully
good point. they do have less expensive options too which we’ll be reviewing in the future
@@electrifiedreviews thank you
John C3333 😎✌🏼
Amazing video!! That bike is dope!
thanks and it really really is
awww not quite first this time but great video
hey Aaron! good to see you again and so close! but you’re almost always first so at least someone else had a chance haha. and thanks, man glad you dug it 😎✌🏼
Great review!
It's like a beast! But price too high. and
Please consider review delfast company electric bike.
One of their model is the longest range performance.
(380km per Single charge at 25km/h)
thanks! we’ve been in contact with Delfast and are just waiting for a bike at this point. hopefully we can get that review going soon!
@@electrifiedreviews
Thank you sir.
Hope to good review!
박재한 thanks so much!
Do you still have that bike
just took back but had it for a while. really fun to ride
Do the stealth fighter next
good suggestion! that's a sweet ride
Aliexpress search stealth bomber ebike. You can get one for $1200 and less sometimes.
let us know how you like it once you get it!
I got the 12000 watt it will do over 65 I still don't know the top end yet. 1 charge I went 30 miles up and down hills. I live in Bradenville Pa. Yes they are not that pricey.
nice! sounds like you're having some serious fun
Check out CAB Motorworks 'Eagle' model, almost half the price for twice the power.
ive seen them and actually we're trying to get a review going. cool products for sure
ok but how fast did he go ??
about 45 mph. had a hard time hitting top speed with that runway
Any issues yet brent
What’s the geometry?
not sure. have you checked the company website?
Review delfast bikes
haha... you are a lot of fun to listen to, or watch (I am a sucker for drama... :-) But I am an electronic/mechanical "engineer" with a penchant for "non-duality", so extra fun ... :-)
For that price... I can wait
haha i don't blame you, Alberto
neat bike but let's be honest at this point why not just buy the KTM freeride. what gap am I not seeing that this thing fills? pedals maybe?
Hope to soon see your review on the VanMoof S2.
hey scrap! we’re working with Vanmoof to get one out to us as soon as possible!
Chain guard?
not that i'm aware no
Makes sense to have one since it has “ all that power”
Cant wait for 10 years from now when these are 1000 dollars
Mine is 8 years old and by the time I replaced the battery and upgraded brakes mine owes me well over $6K
The cost of e bikes in general is stupid a 10,000 dollar bike you said it perfectly I could buy a new dirt bike of any brand for that .. I would love to have a ebike of this class but I would never spend that kind of money for it . Great review spot on with ridiculousness I. Cost stupidcost...
thanks Foghorn! the price on this is a bit exorbitant to be sure, but you can snag some seriously good e-bikes for about $1000 or so.
No gloves going 50mph? That is indeed an adrenaline rush lol.
How much
a lot
No liscence required?
depends on where you live and where you ride it. you could easily ride this on the road, but if you did you would need to add lights and blinkers and get a license
This dude gives the accurate specs but I feel like he is hyping it up more for people who don’t know a lot about ebikes because you could make a 27kw mid drive ebike just like that one but with a 27kw motor driving the drivetrain near the petals not a motor in the wheel with a 72 volt 48ah and another 48 volt 25+ah battery attached to a rack in the back and it could go up to 100+ mph. Or you could do a 15kw hub motor that could do like 80-100+
I really want to buy this bike so much. But i doubt it will last more than a year in my county because a lot of thief
if get one be sure to never leave it alone!
I'm looking for my first e-bike and just starting to do research. I basically know nothing besides the fact that I want one. Then I heard $10k and knew this wasn't for me, then realized the video was 3 years old🤦🏻 lol. The most Im comfortable spending is around $3k but even that's alot for me
It only does 50 mph? 1000 watt 48 volt set up does 45 mph for a little less than 300 bucks and its a conversion kit at leafbike.com the battery that would be needed for it would also be less weight due to lower voltage unless some one did a insane capacity for longer range. That bike is insane high in price but its all to what people want to spend on what they want that is if they can. I will admit it is rather nice even though the top speed seams to be a bit low.
hey Steven! we've tested quite a few 1000 watt bikes with a 48/52 volt setup but none have gone that fast. sounds like you have some experience with the leafbike kit? how was it converting your bike?
Wait wait wait so your trying to tell me that a bike that is electric cost up to 13k what’s the point might as well by a car SMH 🤦🏼♂️
