The standard Scorpion is a lot of fun to ride. Looks cool, the full suspension provides for smooth travels. Big bright lights a comfortable seat and lots of hill climbing power.
I have this Scorpion in blue and it’s awesome. The 750W motor makes it ebike legal according to federal law. Anything above 750W cannot be considered an electric bicycle by law and therefore cannot use bike lanes, has to be registered with the DMV, etc. With 750 W motor you’re completely free, plus the speed is plenty enough in my opinion. Also, I pedal this thing all the time and have done so for like 5-6 hours straight on a few occasions and I have no trouble with seat height. I’m a 5’10” male. Just make sure you keep a straight back and don’t hunch over the handlebar.
It seems to me with such a well thought out setup as a moped it should definitely have a significantly higher top speed (and hence what you said , more power). I think at that price point and top speed I would purchase more in the e-bike category and be willing to live with a less beefy frame and suspension.
I suspect they're keeping it where it is for legal reasons so that it's classified as an ebike and not a moped. Mopeds can't ride trails, sidewalks, etc - so keeping it an ebike offers a lot of flexibility but not speed. It'll have to adhere to the 3 federal ebike classes (US statement, no idea about other nations) - but I suspect it has a mode for off-road or private property where it doesn't have to comply.

2 yr old video but, hey! Juiced bikes Rock! I opted for the $849 G-Force T42 copy of the Lectric XP 3.0, which has : 750/1100 motor, 20A controller, bigger: battery, tires, forks and top speed. Also 4 pounds heavier... My plan is to add a 20ah battery on the rack and a mid drive Bafang when the hub motor dies...
Me and the wife have a couple of Rogue Barracuda electric mopeds and we live in the English countryside and we like to go off adventuring and often take a picnic I recommend these style of e-bikes as they are so comfortable for traveling.
Keep in mind, this bike is also available as a hyper scorpion with 1000 W motor. Mirrors front lights blinkers back light blinkers key locking, and pushbutton alarm.
A lot of chain slap that should have some sort of tension control. I really like the look and idea of it all. I think a lot of people will be modifying this bike.
I've gotten to try the standard seat and felt like I was on a toddler bike. Bearable on throttle only, but knees pointing at the sky pedaling. I didn't get to try the taller seat, it'd be better I'm sure. I'd really like to see more of the pedal use shown. Even though many will ride it throttle only, I'm still interested in pedaling - knowing it won't be optimal, but want to better understand how not optimal (tolerable or miserable). Great looking bike.
I was told it was only 3" higher than the standard seat. Higher would be better, maybe they added more height to it, that'd be nice. I could've sat on the back rack completely behind the (standard) seat. Dimensions seem off, but it is nice looking with good features.
@@NomadicBristolview i agree with you. it needs a lot longer seat like the scrambler! need the leg room! i'm 5'6 and it's a very low bike. wish i didn't sell my scrambler, it had the height i liked. i would trade for someones used scrambler for my new scorpion just for that reason alone.
@@kiddprinceton and that's why I haven't picked one up. Pity, looks good, good features, reasonable price. So close. Many will like it though, so that's cool.
I read somewhere that Juiced took over the design of the Onyx CTY when Onyx decided to focus on the RCR. I gotta say, the CTY looked so much better. They nailed the 'vintage moped meets modern electric' design with very clean lines, whereas the Scorpion with added rack, high bars, balloon tires looks a bit dorky. I hope Onyx brings it back at some point...
mennoosmusic Juiced did not take over the CTY. ONYX plans to rerelease the CTY. The Scorpion is an offshoot of the Bird Cruiser rental bike it was contracted to produce for Bird which also owns and released the Cruiser under Scoot branding. ONYX founder and designer left ONYX to lead design efforts at Bird a year ago and he had a hand in the Cruiser which the Scorpion borrows a lot from.
Just ordered mine 2 days ago before the sale went off. Hoping it’ll be here before the end of the month looking forward to using it for commuting to and from work.
I totally want a moped styled e bike but I wonder how practical they are. They don't have adjustable seats etc and seem heavy. I'd also like a bike for some exercise. But damn they look nice.
It's cool, but I used to have a Puch gas moped back in the 80's. I think I might be disappointed with the power and speed on this. I wish Juiced had a step through version of the Crosscurrent S similar to the Radcity but with the Class 3, slightly beefier tires and better components. That would be definitely worth the extra few hundred dollars.
No mirrors? To me, who installed seatbelts in his parents cars in the late ‘50’s, this would be like not using those seatbelts. Thanks for the great review videos.
Looking good on that bike Micah! It fits you try reviewing that hyper here it pretty fast. Would like to see that. Thinking about getting one but...man pricey for 65inches of aluminum. And I a great the weight stymies the 750watt mother. Upgrading my RadMini with Bolton Bikes upgrade kit and Electricbikeworlds Bafang “real” 750watt motor. Got motor waiting on controller and monitor.. with 20” wheels this will give me the torque I need (hills). May convert to 52v battery down the road (maybe) for speed. But thinking Hyper Scorpion hmmm...
@@tangowood i had to return mine for a refund. the display showed 0v, i replaced every part they asked me to and it still didnt work. sadly, i wasnt able to test the bike out because it didnt work out of the box
Part of the problem (Thu's your only complaint) is you're wriding this thing like a motorcycle, when it's not. A 750 was designed to pedal assist a lot of the time not just sit there and turn the throttle like you're on a Harley.
I've always wanted one but i never understood how i would use it. They're too slow to be allowed on highways and too fast to be allowed on bike paths, so how to you get around on one? You're pretty much confined to local streets.
Exactly. I'm too poor to buy a car and thought something like this would be the solution. Turns out, KY doesn't agree. lol there are higher speed ones you can bring on the highways, but the catch is that if its that fast, its a motorcycle and needs a license + insurance, defeating the purpose.
They're really not too fast for bike paths, especially since you obviously don't have to go full speed. On a bike like this the throttle is only 20mph, which a much lighter pedal bike can hit anyways, and even if you pedal really hard they max out at 28mph. I ride my juiced scrambler on local bike paths all the time with 0 problems. Just slow down and be courteous when there are others you're sharing the trail with.
@@caramelzappa Oh, then I'll see if it'll pass with the county clerk. If its slow enough to not classify as a motorcycle, it is golden! Thanks for letting me know! :)
Hey Micah, with how many ebikes you've ridden it seems like you're in a unique position to compare different models. Along those lines, I'd love to hear a minute of commentary towards the end of these reviews about how each bike stacks up against others in its "class". With the Scorpion, for example, the RadRunner and S73 jump out as obvious competitors that people watching this video might be considering. Would be great to hear your thoughts since you've ridden all those!
I got a standard nakto fat tire 26" cruiser, pretty nice for a first ebike. And it hits 20 mph on full throttle. Makes me ask the question of what the difference is between 350w and 750w if it's not speed
I like it and I would think of certifying it for the European community. It is THE street style mobilette(!) that could be appreciated by young boys and girls. It luckilly has a 750W motor so that it needs no specifications on European roads. The only thing is that the speed must be limited at 25 K an hour to remain a legal bicycle.but that will enhance its range. Can't they show it in some Television commercials with Coca Cola or so, something big? Could be a hype,serious.
Agree. If we want e bike riding to flourish it can't get close to that merging with autos , that is exactly what happened in the first generation of ebikes and public opinion and legislation pushed bikes out, driving down both sales and manufacturing and design in the process. No need to get motorbike envy with an ebike anyways.
Thanks for terrific vid. I agree with you. Looks like it's faster but probably a cruiser. But for $1899 from China? I'd say $1500 would be fair. It's not a mid-drive motor but instead a rear wheel single speed. What about replacement parts? Don't get me wrong, I like the Scorpion a lot and the owner is cool but it sure is pricey and at some point difficult to maintain. Battery might cost anywhere from $350 and up and would be a direct part purchase from Juiced until someone can copy the battery harness. But sizing the ebike is kind of difficult to gauge. Can you give your opinion about different heights and comfort to pedal? Thanks.
Sounds like a bit of a let down. I have one ordered and am wondering if I should change order to the Hyper. It is a lot of coin , still it would be cool and is not in the $4,000 range. The thing to get is a Honda SuperCub, but that is motorcycle.
Will you review the new Segway C80 moped!?!? Please want you’re honest and professional opinion about it if it is really worth the money? I realize it is a slower moped but would it be good for around town cruising in flat range areas?
Any way to get this in europe without paying like 2000 usd shipping from ´murica? Would pay 3k for this cash if i could get it here with an eu vendor. :P
@@Electrek The stop sign looked pretty real to me. However, it's a fair point and you are certainly free to do whatever you want when it comes to your own safety. But for those of us that ride in urban areas like New York City or Boston or LA (I bike around Washington, DC), those kinds of practices are the kinds of things that 1) Make motorists and pedestrians hate cavalier cyclists and 2) Could get you seriously injured. Just trying to encourage a higher level of safety for all concerned. Fair enough?
Your shifter on left handlegrip is upside down. I see another post that this upside down shifter was also sent to another customer out of the box. Has this issue been fixed?
There is an offroad throttle kit that will unlock throttle to beyond Class 2. However you may want to check out the top of the line HyperScorpion instead which is 30+ mph out of the box.
Do you experts think the price will go down eventually ? Or would it stay about the same. Thinking about getting an electric bike but pretty expensive for what I’ll be using it for and that’ll just be to go to work and the gym/jiu jitsu class. It’ll save me money on gas in the long run so I’m just wondering if I should wait or just buy it
With pedal assist? For sure. I find it decently pedalable with moderate pedal assist levels. I can also pedal it without the battery on, but its tiring quickly.
The components on this bike justify the price and I don't think anyone is buying the regular scorpion for the top speed or performance. This one is mainly for your wife, food delivery, and when your making a beer run. The hyperscorpion is the one to get if you really want to blur the line between ebike and moped.
The low speed is a bit confusing. I know you are a lighter guy so maybe your setting weren't set right, or your battery wasn't full when you did the speed test
This is great, but if something is right on the line between e-bike and electric moped, I prefer to stick with the e-bike. You can take it inside, park it anywhere, and use the bike lane without people looking at you like you're breaking the rules.
@@ying0817 my Ripcurrent came with Race mode on the first time I powered it up. Race mode is awesome with a 52 tooth front chain ring and a nine speed freewheel - I got it up to 36 miles an hour for a couple seconds.. crazy to get a better work out on an electric bike than on my carbon frame gravel bike!
Decent review, but I'm a little disappointed on how you didn't go over the upside down shifter on the left, you literally had a clip of it. Also, i really wish you'd include maintenance review, in the event that something breaks, how hard will it be to replace it? Hows their customer service. Are the cables snap on? Overall i found this lackluster.

What happens if you get a puncture
You did not say whether or not the wheels are solid or have inner tubes or whatever.
Do you know of any e scooters without peddles with a top speed of 20 mph?Thanks!
The components on this bike justify the price and I don't think anyone is buying the regular scorpion for the top speed or performance. This one is mainly for your wife, food delivery, and when your making a beer run. The hyperscorpion is the one to get if you really want to blur the line between ebike and moped.
These bikes weigh a ton! Start talking about weight and how to transport these things.
Do a review of the babymaker ebike from indiegogo
Those don’t ship until November I think
Here’s a pretty solid review.

@@Andres-nu3xh oh yeh true didn’t realise that
@@marktroup2978 cheers
The low speed is a bit confusing. I know you are a lighter guy so maybe your setting weren't set right, or your battery wasn't full when you did the speed test
WOW THIS IS SOOOOOO COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Great review..
This is great, but if something is right on the line between e-bike and electric moped, I prefer to stick with the e-bike. You can take it inside, park it anywhere, and use the bike lane without people looking at you like you're breaking the rules.
I thought these had Race mode, or is that only on the HyperScorpion?
You first have to unlock it in the settings
@@ying0817 my Ripcurrent came with Race mode on the first time I powered it up. Race mode is awesome with a 52 tooth front chain ring and a nine speed freewheel - I got it up to 36 miles an hour for a couple seconds.. crazy to get a better work out on an electric bike than on my carbon frame gravel bike!
@@ying0817 So it will go faster than this guy says?
How difficult would it be to add rear view mirrors?
I'm getting one but diff brand but looks similar with 8000W 96V for 200 bucks
They’re definitely lying to you and you’d be crazy to believe you’re actually getting that for 200$ lmao
This look like a fun bike to ride I won't mind having one😃
Mirrors would be mandatory on this type of bike over here in Europe.
Makes sense. In the US it's at the limit of what still qualifies as an ebike, so no mirrors needed.
Chain movement that need to fix it. and reduce total weights.
They "STILL" have their gear lever upside down?? What's up with that?
Is it me or is the gear shift indicator upside down?
Can I buy this bike from UK please????
Decent review, but I'm a little disappointed on how you didn't go over the upside down shifter on the left, you literally had a clip of it. Also, i really wish you'd include maintenance review, in the event that something breaks, how hard will it be to replace it? Hows their customer service. Are the cables snap on? Overall i found this lackluster.
What is there to say about it? It’s a shifter.
Can you compare it with the Chinese one.
@3:24 look at that chain 👀
Looks weak for the price
Is this out in the uk
how tall are you?
3:30 there's something siriesly rong with that chain frees it at 3:38
Miguel Colón woah wtf is that about ? Glitch in the matrix?
I think he's using a 360 camera, which stitches together images from 2 lenses. That's the stich point
Review the ZuGo Rhyno ebikes
I think them and the super 73 are the best looking ebikes!
I wish KY laws allowed us to drive these on highways if they reach the appropriate speed. Now you gotta classify them as motorcycles...
The rad rover beats this one hands down how ever I think the hyperscorpion will thrash the rad rover so please please please can we have a review of the hyperscorpion.😎👍🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
Looks cool
LOVE THE LOOK!!!;)
How is this bike compared to super 73?
Great design 👍👌👌
Effective July 1st new Florida law, any bicycle trail in the state is legal for Ebikes too. No permits or license required.
