Great Honest Review Basement 👍Im still debating on which Ebike to get myself . Im still looking at the Wicked thumb bikes Deuce S or a Full Size model unfortunately not all come with front shocks so its more $ to upgrade the 2024 RatRod bike is Nice also but more Expensive.
the first option is , if theres a ambeant light in the screen it will sence when its dark or light , it will turn off and on the light auto if you have it in auto
i love my ridstar ive had it for a few months. Pedaling isnt that bad, the gear shifter helps bigtime. i do have the same brake issue but havent looked into it yet. im definitely not gonna buy it again but its a great starter e bike in my opinion.
I went with the Amyet G60. Very similar ebikes but a couple hundred bucks less off of ebay. They took my offer of 649... after taxes and shipping came out to 794. Would I buy it again? Maybe... the price makes it hard to complain. I've only put 8 miles on it so far. Brakes are cable operated, which I'm ok with them. They work good enough for now. Eventually, I'll upgrade to hydraulic brakes, still come out cheaper than purchasing the Ridstar and won't have any of the brake issues that both of these ebikes come with. I agree, this style of ebikes sucks for peddling. I knew that before my purchase... thanks to various reviews. I'm happy just using the throttle. 😂 I noticed Happyrun's selection of replacement parts on their website. Should a person wreck or have a part failure after warranty is expired... they got everything available separately.
@@TheBasementGardener What's the real range of ridstar Q20? On allegro they write that 80km on pedaling and 120km on pas. But I don't trust them, and after this wideo I'm quite worried...
@@aleksandro3190 I weigh about 200lbs. Riding purely on electric, I get no more than 50km. Using pedal assist is usless and may increase the range to about 60km. Its not a bike that you want to run out of battery on . Pedaling this beast sux!
Hey so seeing this comment, can i know the benefits of the emoko over the ridstar? Ive been set on ridstar and i mean if i can get a better ebike for around the same price im all for it
Oh noo I just order it 😂😢 So which one is better than this for the money ? Put some links ? My neighbor has super73 for 4000$ basic model without rear suspension and man it's just a scam...
@@TheBasementGardener My bike came yesterday. Man I'm blown away, it's great, I'm very happy :) My supplier has as many spare brake pads as I want so I don't see any problem... cheers...
the “manual” thing with the headlight symbol is just Chinese cheap corner cutting. on many e-bikes, holding the plus button on the controller turns on the headlights, ridstar didn’t care enough to bother changing that button and just left it wired to nothing and they put in their own controls for headlights

You must have gotten a bad unit. I have the Q20 20ah and the Q20 pro. No issues with brakes, batteries or wobbling wheels.
Thx for uploading this video. I am also lookin for a bike like this. Thx for warning me. Is it possible to make a video when you riding the bike?
the suprise walk mode was so funny lmao
I like this review. So much to take in account for. Cheers.

I still have not settled on a brand. I am looking hard for the one you want!😊
Seems that they made it for a warmer climate than here in Canada Basement.
I just got mine today in the mail from Amazon and it seems to be fine for me as of now
I hope the brake pad situation is better for you in a thousand km.
what do you prefer for the same price?
Nothing . I'm not shopping
Well brakes are easy to find now. Tonnes of upgrades.😊
Got a link?
You can contact the seller and they’ll sell you brake pads.
Can't go wrong for $649. I've had mine now for about 6 months and thing rips
. no complaints on my end
the possative is IT ROLLS on its own
Im getting a pit bike 55 mph $879 no shipping just pay for the truckers gas or a portion maybe 50 bucks
the first option is , if theres a ambeant light in the screen it will sence when its dark or light , it will turn off and on the light auto if you have it in auto
& I thought it was self explanatory Manual with light symbol LMAO Thanks for helping Basement
Yeah about the break pad thing I probably won’t buy this one but this other e-bike I was looking at

if pedaling isnt bad for you...you must have a 6 inch thigh gap or something.
what a shame , it looks like such a good bike ! , thanks for the honesty i truly thought this bike would be a beast
Can you return these or nah?
Nope

its got the same controller as the lectric xp that manual thing is the headlight on my bike
I was thinking about buying the ridstar Q20 but now maybe I'm going to buy Emoko c93...
That's probably a good idea

Sounds like you want to sell it.
Nope. I'm really actually enjoying it. The problems are fixable. The lessons learned....don't buy a ridstar and don't spend on impulse.
Oh noo I just order it 😂😢

@@krunoslavbenko690 Who's your supplier?
@@TheBasementGardener I'm in Croatia, Zagreb :)
@@krunoslavbenko690 So what? Post the link. Or...let me guess...they wont ship to Canada or something convenient like that??? Yeah right.

I regret more and more making this purchase.
let Pats give a review! LOL
omg too bad you cant get another one thats better!
Id rather have the Q20 than a Colorway Bk29 tbh
Honest reviews are the best
From chy nah? Well, that's the problem.
men this one them best ebike u could buy
Nope. Don't buy this bike.
👍🤟✌️
Fat ebike never made sense to me since you can't pedal them, they are emotorcycles pretending to be ebikes by adding pedals.
Just heard about this damn sucks the company doing this
Agreed! #ridstarsux
Yo, mine broke down after 25 km 😂
Was ridstar any help?
what happened?
@@AnKlMa not sure.. might be fuse or controller failure. Just died on me.
Most hostile youtuber i ever come a cross. 😂😂😂
Thanks 👍. Wish I could share this out! 😄
RIDSTAR HAS SENT THE FOLLOWING LINK FOR BRAKEPADS. $80 CDN a pair! Ridiculous! www.amazon.ca/dp/B0D2DD1X3C?ref=myi_title_dp
Looks like a death trap.
you guys gotta understand its a cheaper bike yuou guys are getting mad over a 800-1000$ bike
No....it's a company that's auctioning off brake pads that were getting mad at.....did you listen to the video at all?
