Another Great Review. The 24th will be a year since i had my fat tire ebike, And besides changing the tires, It has been so easy keeping it up, and it still runs like day one with over 1200 miles. Thank you for a year of some of the best reviews of Ebikes and Merry Christmas.
hey Ray! very good to see you again buddy. and that’s awesome! which fat tire do you have again? and im so glad you’ve been digging the reviews! happy holidays my friend and i hope you have an amazing 2020!
Thank you. It was in time for guests.
Congratulations to the winner and awesome review on the ebike. Happy holidays and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Olga!!!
Awesome video! Just a few corrections. The 750w motor has 80nm of torque. They don't claim 100 miles at 28mph. 100 miles is on PAS 1 in eco mode which would be around 12 to 15mph. Suspension is an $89 upgrade option (for front suspension forks and a suspension seatpost). There are also other upgrade options like a 17.5ah battery, urban tires, fenders with a rear rack and light, etc. That is a preproduction bike so the wire routing was pretty rough. Production bikes are a lot neater. You can program the PAS levels from 0-3 all the way up to 0-9 in advanced settings.
Rattan also sells a smaller frame and 500w called the X for $100 less which I've done reviews on here on TH-cam.
Check out the Facebook group, Rattan ebike owners for more info!
They will also be coming out with a 750w full suspension (front and rear) extremely soon. It will be part of their fat bear bikes sold on their website.
@@charliefoxtrot9783well intell then. We should go with wildeway. 32ah battery. 750 watt 80 nm 30 mph. PoW. I got one commen
This Looks Awesome! Did you like the Rattan Fat Bear or the Rattan XL better? (At the moment they can be had for similar price)
Is the rear suspension that valuable or would a suspension seat post suffice?
I'm 5'11 pushing 50 yo and appreciate a soft ride. Having a hard time deciding which one to get.
hmm that’s a tough one. if you’re really looking for a cush ride but you don’t need a larger folding frame that can support much higher than average load capacities, then i’d probably recommend the Fat Bear. the rear sus works well enough, but honestly throwing a seat post sus on is almost always a good idea for electric bikes... adds a lot of comfort in the saddle and the extra weight doesn’t really matter because of the motor
Which one has the bigger frame, the XL 750 or the Fat Bear 750S? The yamee.com website shows dimensions implying that the 750S is bigger???
How high can the seat be raised (seat to ground distance)? I have a 35" inseam.

how is it with the battery? If you happen to need a replacement, is it possible to get a new one from a retailer? Or is it some kind of custom fit?
hmm. not sure about this. you could probably find an oem battery but can't say for 100% certain.
Hi Brent . . very enjoyable video . . what Drone are you using to follow you and fly in front? Is the Skydio 2 by chance? Thanks :-)
hey trevor! so glad to hear you dug it buddy. the drone we've been using for a while now is the original Skydio. we should be testing the Skydio 2 once they have more samples available, but so far the Skydio 1 has been pretty awesome aside from a few drawbacks like size and low battery life, internal memory, etc.
Thank you for the review. I'm torn on the model I should buy as I like the suspension on the fat Bear Plus. I am 6'2 240lb so the XL might suite me better?
I own both and would suggest the XL
hey Bobby! for a 6'2" 240 lb rider the XL might be a better choice just because you probably won't feel as cramped while you're riding it compared to the Fat Bear. That being said, the Fat Bear is pretty dope and i too prefer the full sus.
@@fishing181 nice. thanks for chiming in Clayton. how have you like them so far?
Just ordered my XL today with all options except spare tires. Also added the new cruise control option just released.
nice! that’s exciting. let us know how you like it once you can take It out for a test ride!
hi there, does anyone know where I can buy this bike? I live in Switzerland. is there any supplier in Europe?
thanks and regards
Marshall
Is it bBigger in size in the Aventon Sinch?
Great review. Will the xl be too large for a 5’-8” male? Between xl and sondors fold X, which one would you recommend?
I am wondering about this too! I definitely want 750w, but not sure if the XL will be too large for me (5'9")? I actually asked their support email and got cryptic nonsense responses like pick the 750w under options (there is no option for 750w upgrades). ???
heya! thanks Imam Hossain Mihan! glad you dug it. this might be on the boarder of feeling too big, but with some adjusting you could probably make it work. i am 5'10" and it felt borderline too big for me. Rattan has some other folders we've reviewed that are a bit smaller, and those might be more up your alley. we haven't reviewed the Sondors Fold X yet so can't really speak to that.
@@Minnemike_StPaul hey Mike! check out my response to Imam Hossain for more info, but basically, i'm 5'10" and this felt borderline too big for me.
Great review Brent. This bike looks like a great deal!
thanks Jim and great to see you again buddy! Merry almost Christmas!
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews same time you have a great Xmas and new year’s! Keep those great reviews coming.
Jim Moffitt thanks Jim will do my friend 😊
You would think by having such a massive frame, they could have run the wires through it rather than hanging below the frame.
That's was also the turn off for the Walkee X3 that I was close to pulling the ruger on. Wires everywhere.
Hi, I’m waiting for my XL. Good review. Just trying to judge fit for me. We are about the same height. You said you had a long reach. Do you know your sleeve shirt size? Like 32” or 33” etc...
hey David! not sure what my sleeve shirt size is but i have longer than average arms and it does feel like a bit of a reach, but that might just be me. you can always adjust the handlebar height to help compensate for reach too. interested to hear how this fits for you so be sure to let us know once you get it!
So - did you receive the bike yet? How is it??
Nice video, as always bro!
hey thanks Rick and Merry almost Christmas!
Is the crowd fund still going ? And what do you think someone who is 5”11 should go for?
hey SpankReasy! not sure if the crowdfunding is still live for this or not, but I'm 5'10" and the XL felt a little big for me.
Woah that thing looks awesome in that matte black!
yoooo! what’s up XC. and yup! everything looks better in matte black 😂😂😂
@@electrifiedreviews 😂😂yea it does!!👍
XC GAMES 😊
Brent. Greetings from Southern Cali. I just got my Yamee XL 750w. Has the same display as yours. How do you reset the trip meter? It just shows the same mileage as the total mileage. I can't find anywhere in the manual? Thanks bro.
Is it Bigger than Aventon Sinch brother?
@Brent McCluskey, What has better acceleration, the Rattan XL or the Lectric XP?
if also like to know this
hey Pat The Cat! i'd say the Rattan wins this one as it has a more powerful motor.
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews yes but both have 20 amp controller
Dtownkobra’s E bikes and More e
What is the top speed of this under power?
Sounds like the Rattan has a load of features (hydraulic brakes, lights, 8 speed, etc, etc) that are just a step above the competition at it's price point (even if only temporary). The only thing I would fault are the lack of fenders. What a deal!
sweet looking frame too :P)
Great review! I read a comment on their Indiegogo site mentioning this bike has torque sensor (perhaps your review model is otherwise).
hi Flynn! glad you dug it! i actually read through their comments as well and i think they thought the customer was asking about torque of the motor, as they replied with those specs... is that the comment you were taking about? it’s possible the production version will have a torque sensor but i highly doubt it
It's believed that the party who answer on the IGG the comment did not comprehend the specifics of the question.
All bikes delivered for Testing have come with Cadence Sensors.
The IGG Launch runs to January 6th 2020 for the discounted prices.
Nice Review, thx
thanks DWayne!
Great review! Now, a question. What's the actual weight limit on all 3 versions of this bike? There's no information on the IGG website.
what’s up tds! good to see you again. that’s a really good question and unfortunately we couldn’t find the load capacity of this bike either, but the max load capacity of the Fat Bear Plus is 330 pounds i believe and this one is way beefier so i have to think it’s much higher
@@electrifiedreviews - Thanks for the info. I forgot about the Fat Bear Plus. I'm really liking this bike,...hopefully I can get a little $$$ together before the IGG campaign ends.
tds 101 ya man if you can grab this at $999 it’s a serious bargain. fingers crossed!!!
My Eahora X6 which shares the same frame and fork is on paper rated for 330lbs.
Did you test this bike on sport mode or normal mode..
sport!
IS IT WATERPROOF??? CAN I TAKE IT IN THE HEAVY RAIN?
rain should be fine, but i wouldn't take it swimming. :P)
How are the tires? I love the look of it
hey Ozzie! tires are ok. don't believe these have puncture protective lining, so adding some slime would be a good idea... or if you are going to be going through areas with lots of branches, sharp rocks, etc., you might want to swap out these tires for something more rugged.
Are you getting a rattan x to review/compare to the xl?
hey Thomas! no plans to review the X at the moment, but hopefully at some point in the future!
Is possible to take off the display?
you can remove the display but that will leave the electronics inoperable. but ya if you want to swap it out or something you can definitely do that.
Why dont they sell this one in europe?
I think you had the protective plastic on the display.
just went back and checked the bike after reading your comment and you are totally right. i’m not sure if it was the stick protective plastic or like an actual screen protector but we took it off and it does look a lot cleaner. good eye!
That looks like the Tesla Cybertruck of folding e bikes! It's a tank!
haha ok well then we need someone to crop an image of this into the back of a Tesla pickup. :) good to see you James
Remind me to send a real image in 2 years 😉
Therookienomore haha please do
Nice review Brent, I have the Rattan XL (me) and X (wife) combo on order. The controler still has the USB port, right?
Hopefully Rattan will begin shipping these soon. I'm not good at waiting.
BTW, what was the name of the artist/song you used for the Fat Bear Plus test ride VLOG?
hey Robert! that’s awesome! sounds like you two have some fun adventures ahead of you. the display does have a USB type A port which is a nice touch. not sure what the songs were for this one but we get most of our music from Artlist
Nice video cool
hey Ari! great to see you again and happy holidays!
Has anyone received a Rattan XL (or X) from the 1st batch shipped in December? I believe that was a relatively small batch (15 bikes?) but they should be in the domestic shipping phase. That said, the Indegogo web page has not had Rattan input for several weeks. It could be that the extended New Year shutdown due the the Coronavirus outbreak has completely shut Rattan down and everything including domestic shipping of the first batch is in limbo. Any info for people waiting on their bikes would be helpful. So Brent, if you have any contact at Rattan that you could ping, that would be nice ...
hey Robert! sorry for the slow reply here. sometimes we get swamped with comments. :P) we haven't had any contact with Rattan since this review, but i haven't heard of any issues with the company thus far. it's been a while since you commented, so would love to know how your experience has been in the meantime. have an awesome day and stay safe out there!
@@electrifiedreviews Hi Brent, I believe the 3 Rattans I ordered are on their way and should arrive in LA next week. Probably mid June to get to me although one X model is going to my daughter in So Cal so she will get hers first. During the long wait, I saw and test rode this new monster ebike and could not resist (bikonit.com/). I'd be interested in your take on this rather large machine. It will be my daily rider with the Rattan will be my travel ebike. Think I've gone a little overboard on this as we'll have a total of 5 ebikes in the family soon.
this bike is awesome
it's a fun one! and what's up film wreck?!
@@electrifiedreviews nothing much just chillin on my bed playing pokemon and listening to music
@@Film-Wreck haha right on buddy. enjoy!
No fenders,no rack,no shocks and those wires hanging off maybe would get away at that price but not in the 2000 plus tho well at least for me🤔
Nice review, I bought a similar looking bike called the Eahora X6 and I’ve been meaning to do a video review of it. Eahora must be partnered with Rattan as my bike came shipped with a rattan logo on the box. The main difference seems to be some of the parts like my motor is 350w.
interesting. i wonder if that’s the case! how have you liked the Eahora so far? and drop us a link to your review once it’s up so we can check it out!
So far so good. I like the aesthetics of the bike as you pointed out the bike stands out with that huge beefy frame. Overall I like the bike and at flat terrain I can easily reach 28mph from pure eco mode. On uphills the bike struggles and I’m at 230lbs. I will get on the review soon as it warms up here.
Chris Anzures beautiful. can’t wait to see it! we should be reviewing some bikes from Eahora in 2020 so if you get yours done first we can also drop the link in the review video comments so people can see both reviews :)
Here’s my review
th-cam.com/video/CjlySJJSmXI/w-d-xo.html
@@SFioniqDriver nice! thank you Carl.
my only constructive criticism, instead of havin drone and music playin while u ride, have a true pov angle and we hear the bike while u ride it. we can hear the bikes and u can tell us how it feels to u A U ARE riding it.. 😀
hey Fred Jr! thanks again for the suggestion! hope you're well and stay safe out there!
Not bad for a folder unless you like folding ebike jump on that price man. That's what I say bro 👍👍
haha ya it would be hard to break this one... maybe some BMX jumps? i don't know i'm not going to try it :)
@@electrifiedreviews oh OK cool. Hey what are you replying on a lap top or computer just curious bro
@@racerx7413 right now laptop because i'm trying to catch up on old comments but normally reply from the good ol iphone :)
👍
MANGOOO! how's your day going? good to see you as always. :)
Brent McCluskey - Electrified Reviews It’s going good👍
TheNoiceMango : right on buddy :)
Great review just put an order in on Indiegogo
nice! let us know how you dig it!
Heybike Mars upgraded
potrzebuje ten rower w Polsce!
typical of this style of ebike, wire and cable routing is a mess and look derailleur guard is bent.
This was a preproduction bike. The cables are routed much nicer on the IGG bikes.
A lot of folders actually have internally routed wires!
Charlie Foxtrot good point, Charlie. there will probably be a few differences on the final version
@@electrifiedreviews yes this is what it is and cost is a factor... just made the coment as the bike was not ready for a job interview. Thanks again for the reply...
Tokyo Rose haha that’s an amazing expression. love it. and of course! thank you so much for commenting!
🚲❤🚲
😎✌🏼
I searched the address from rattan bike on Google maps and there is just a company with the name iQA Metal. It's a melal recycling company. No Rattan bike headquarter. So I don't trust the indigogo campaign.
Take a look here: www.rattanebike.com/pages/about-us
Chino, CA
Congrats lol. Brent I also mssg you on insta private XD
Kevin! what's good buddy. and right on i'll check it out. thanks. ;)
way too intense melo out easy ryder was a 70s muvie but relaxing is wut to get
Music sucks,
what music would you recommend?
Stop saying "price point" wth does that mean anyway? Just say "price" and stop trying to sound fancy. 😂
hey HayabusaOrlando! "price point" refers to the price compared to other similar items and helps to put the price of the item being reviewed into perspective. but thank you for saying we're fancy!
