    Thank you John. I found it interesting to see your collection and hear all about the tech specs. I would love incorporated in one of your videos tips to keep your bike safe whilst, say, parked up outside the shop. etc.

    Excellent video John! This was really informative and has helped my decision making re which bike to get as I've been looking at several of these bikes recently. Thank you! 😀

    Very interesting, I am looking forward to your "extras" video. As I have told you already, I bought the Hygge bike, Can you maybe tell/show how to fit the throttle and maybe explain all the things on the control panel. Lots of things on it I really don't know/ (understand) . I am very pleased with the bike and like the fat tyres. Thank you again for sharing all these videos. ATB

    Interesting vlog and such a choice. Where do you store them all? 😊 I chose a Giant Roam e bike due to the hybrid style and larger wheels. Very happy with it.

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I rented a unit to store them in order to make this video. I only have 1 of these bikes myself, the rest are now gone.

    Thanks for providing this useful insight into the myriad of options with eBikes 🤯
    Am looking forward to your upcoming episode on panniers etc. as that is key to our future use case - hopefully replacing one of our cars with an eBike for local shopping runs. But does say a 24" wheel give the required road clearance for a decent size pannier...? Also have you tried towing a trailer with any of these bikes ?
    Anyway keep up the great reviews, and I hope that Mandy is doing ok with her treatment... 🙏 ATB

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Anything over a 20 inch wheel is fine with panniers on the back and I haven't used a trailer myself but I have seen other use them and they fit to any of the bikes shown.

  • @slimbo689

    I have watched your videos John but what’s better at going up hills in your opinion, the red Engwe engine x or the pvy z20 max with that dual battery, thanks.

  • @pageant1fd
    @pageant1fd 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    That was hugely informative John ; you really do these reviews so well. Will you touch on battery safety in a future bike update as it seems fire safety officers are becoming concerned with the increase in battery fires.
    Thanks for sharing. All the best to you and particularly, Mandy.

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Batteries are 100% safe, it's the user that's the issue. As long as you use the charger supplied with your bike then you'll be fine.

  • @geoffcampbell7846
    @geoffcampbell7846 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I enjoyed that John, thank you. I guess each bike has its niche considering the range of different applications for terrain, distance and carrying capacity, but out of this wide range of bikes, which would you think of as the best all-rounder? Or putting it another way, which would be your go to bike to load up for a touring holiday/adventure covering many different terrains? 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It’s 50 / 50 between the new Mirider & the hygge vester. I’ll see if Mirider can put together a package more suited to the rough track adventures I prefer, until then the bike that’s in my van is the hygge.

  • @paulbryant4965
    @paulbryant4965 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Very interesting comparisons John. We have a motorhome with no garage so looking to add a bike rack on the rear wall or a tow bar version for 2 bikes. How much weight is saved by removing the batteries for transportation as obviously the racks have weight limits?

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The batteries weigh between 4kg and 10 kg, depending on the battery range.

    Thank you for a great video. We are thinking of a buying an e bike as a family one to use in the van. We range from 5’5” to 5’10” but overwhelmed with the choice. We work in a brand new office building with purpose built huge bike store with showers, hot cabinets for drying and storage for helmets etc The only thing is e bikes are prohibited as they can’t get insurance to store them ! It’s a minefield and so much choice out there at not inconsiderable cost. I thought the throttle ones were not legal here and you are supposed to disconnect them in the UK or have I got confused (doesn’t take much to do that)

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s 100% legal if the throttle only powers the bike to walking pace without peddling. But the law is changing and soon it’ll be fine using throttle without peddling.

    Morning John, When riding the different size bikes, is there any difference between wheel size and tyres in control or stability. Tony

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The bigger the wheel the better the stability generally, it depends how confident you are, tyres are mostly the same until get onto mud or harsh gravel.

    My ideal bike would be cargo style, so i can go to cheaper supermarkets to lower my food budget. I can't walk as far as i used to, due to bad ankle and knee.

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That's a really good point, so having the rear rack with panniers would be ideal.

    • @Hazmatti
      @Hazmatti 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Engwe do a nice cargo style bike, the L20 , it has a rack at the front and back, step through so easy to get on and off

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most of the fat tyre bikes are cargo bikes.

    You didn't mention the motor power.

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Because it’s irrelevant, I’ve had 250w up to 2000w and they’re the same.
