- This week, we're taking a spin with the EGO Power Plus Mini Bike, an EV made by a power tool company that's as intriguing as it is compact. Let's dive into its features, sort through the pros and cons, and see if it's worth adding to your EGO Power collection. So let's get to it! #egopowerplus #egominibike #minibike

I swear, I love the look of this thing.I just wish it was two times bigger
Awesome can't wait to get one!!!!
You'll love it!
Do you know if there will be full size bike in future?
I love this video!! I’ve been waiting for some reviews of this mini bike. It looks awesome. Could you share the heights of some of the people seen riding the bike so we can get an idea of how small it is & what height person looks best fit for the bike. Thanks!!! Great work
Thanks for the feedback! So I'm probably the shortest rider at 5'5" and tallest would be Surge Sully whose about 5'10" or 5'11".
@@RunPlayBack thanks so much for the reply! I am 5’6 on a sunny day so this is perfect.
I just got mine. Love it!
So much fun!
How much cost?
Could street tires be put on easilly?
The Bax1501 commercial backpack battery is 28ah. You could mount two on the rear of the bike's steel frame. Theoretically 75 miles of range
Haha yeah I thought about that backpack. It would be pretty interesting riding with that on tho lol.
I could ride that to work. I only work a quarter mile from my house but it'd be a great use of my batteries while I'm not using yard tools
Man I want to love this thing, but they should have made it a street legal e-moped out of the box. Love how easy they make it to swap batteries, they have up to a 12ah battery in the 56v case style so theoretically you can have 2000wh with 3 12ah packs on the bike and just swap one out. I do wonder if they drain one battery at a time or if they alternate which battery it's pulling from every 5-10% while both are connected. Looks like so much fun, love to see a big company putting out something like this.
I 100% agree, hopefully they release another EV in the future.
They alternate the batteries so they both die about the same time.
My boys are always fighting over our green-works mini bike. I was looking at getting a second one, but I may try this one to compare the two
I think the specs are pretty similar. The only thing I'd consider is if you already have additional Greenworks batteries and tools. May make sense to keep it in the same power system. But if you have EGO tools too or plan on it, sure why not. I think both bikes are fun.
@@RunPlayBack unfortunately all my yard tools are Ryobi so there is little ecosystem benefit for me. We do however have a greenworks go kart and mini bike so it may be best for us to stick with greenworks if we get another bike
I hear ya! I have a mix of Black and Decker, Milwaukee and EGO stuff. But I was definitely swayed to get the bike because I already had 3 EGO tools. Sharing power between more than one thing has proven to be really useful for me.
How would you compare the value to a similar gas bike like a Honda Grom? I want to pick one of these up but biggest setback was low range and top speed
Definitely not the same category. You'll save money and get more power with gas. It makes more sense if you already own EGO products and are into EV mini bikes.
@@RunPlayBack That’s true, been binging your series on this bike. I’m mainly gonna be riding it in my yard. And I do have other EGO products that’s what originally spiked my interest. I want a Surron or equivalent but not looking to spend too much.
i was sleeping on this Bike the quality is like motorcycle grade compared to other mini e-bikes that Hub motor looks like it could do 40+ easy .
Definitely built for power upgrades!
@@RunPlayBack i can’t wait to see how your bike turns out i was about to buy a 1600r pit bike from Burromax but now i kinda wanna see what the EGO mini can do. 😎✔️
Would this be able to fit in a trunk of an suv or do you need a trailer?
Yeah you can lay it on its side. It wont be easy tho, you'll probably need a second person to assist.
@@RunPlayBack might try putting it in the back of my Tesla model y if it will fit
It could work, make sure u have a hand with it and add some moving blankets so nothing gets scratched up
What is the seat height?
I am only 5' 8", I have all the EGO products, with lots of batteries. I am 220 lbs, will this bike feel too small for me?
I had a few friends try it out, heavier and taller than me and they loved it. Seat is long enough to find the best angle for comfort when adjusting the handlebars. They may have them at your nearest Lowes or Ace Hardware so you can see it in person.
Thanks man.
I live in Canada, so not sure when I’ll see one in person.
For the price though, it’s not a bad way to go.
Golf bag rack/holder would be clutch
Feels like the 28mph speed is still restricted. The batteries can deliver about 60 amps, so theoretically it has about 10bhp, which is easily good for 50mph, although at that speed with 7.5Ah batteries, it would last about 7 mins. Which is why they’ve restricted it to 28mph!
If you watch our latest EGO video, there's a plug and play controller kit being developed. Ideal for the dual 12ah batteries.
do you think it would pull a light weight trailer with a 150# deer on fairly level ground , was looking at the coyote 4 wheel battery driven ,top level $15,000 ouch. a nice machine made in S.Carolina anybody have one. later
Might not, but if you’re looking for sub $10k american made emoto then the volcon grunt may appeal to you
I think the Stomp Ebox may fill this niche as well, minus the battery ecosystem.
Yeah they have some solid electric mini bikes. We'll be reviewing the Dragster next.
A friend of mine has a Surron he has cut the speed limiter. Please find it and tell me if we can go faster than 28miles per hours
A Surron has a different controller. But the built in switch on the EGO controller is the cutoff for Sport mode. It's the internal programming on the controller that limits it to 28 miles per hour.
Does the battery box lock?
Yup it locks
@@RunPlayBack Thanks.
Will it be good for someone who is 5'1?
Yup no problem
@@RunPlayBack Cool thanks for the quick response.
You order your EGO mini bike from Amazon?
@@KooLioJSM46 It wasn't on Amazon when I ordered, I got mine from Acme Tools. I'd probably do Amazon if I had to do it again, seems like the same price and I have Prime.
@@RunPlayBack Okay thanks
how tall are you for reference?
5'5"
How cool haha i work at abf
how tall are you?
5'5"
That 28mph for that price is kind of just no go compared to competition. Personally i got ariel rider x that i got up to 40mph is only a few hundo more or when on sale even cheaper than this one.
Yeah I hear you. Specs are not mind blowing. But I don't think AR or traditional ebikes should be compared to this thing. It's more of an off-road, electric moto grade pitbike that just happens to use an existing power system for tools. Much different audience for someone looking for a high powered ebike. If it was just about price theres obviously cheaper solutions. There's a reason this thing hits with the electric power tool crowd and maybe not so much with ebike enthusiasts. But I love both worlds which is why I'm trying to bridge the gap with power mods.
if it had more range i i would buy one. it look like a honda grom.
looks like a grom that things sick
I really like it so far! Power upgrades next!
Cheaper than a dirt bike for a dad with a son. No brainier
Looks like a 273 motor. Would be rad if it was.
It's possible. Does the 273 come in 12" though? I thought it might be this or similar: www.qsmotor.com/product/12inch-3000w-hub-motor/
If not it would be interesting if someone swapped it out for one.
@deviceunseen things are in the works, stay tuned! 👍
For the same price buy a used KLR 650 by far funnier and not limited to the kids park
Misses the mark for me.
Too small, underpowered & ill equipped to compete in the e-bike segment.
Nice money pit getting it up to par & decent frame for its size; a good kids starter kit.
I wannit
Not enough speed. Ego... Make it street legal.
Hah yeah, that motor definitely has more power
