@@RevBombUK I keep hearing there is a 125cc due out, top speed of 80mph and 140 miles on the new battery, this battery will also be in the newer version of the 50cc cypher.
Its mad how you can buy this electric equivalent of a 50cc road bike for the same price as a cheap as a fairly cheap rear hub electric bike with peddles i was gonna buy a electric ebike but now im definitely going to look into going to a dealership & having a look at 1 & possibly look at taking 1 for a test ride & will probably end up buying 1 if these bikes im sure if you find a custom battery maker in the uk im sure you could get a better bigger battery for more more range im sure specially with it being a 72v electric motorbike great video keep up the great work with the videos😊❤😮
I don't know about you but I managed to buy a 3000w 52v electric bicycle for £1600 built by a guy local to me. I bet it's just as fast as this cypher I can get up to 30mph in about 4 seconds lol.
derestrict method is similar to earlier Super Soco bikes, be careful, on the Soco there were Cable overheating issues when held at full unrestricted power,..
For others information, the Impulse is derestricted in the same way however you will see an error message and error code P314 displayed on the display as opposed to a red symbol.
That headlight, how much power? 55 watts? I have an electric moped with a halogen bulb of 35 watts. When it's dark and wet I see absolutely NOTHING. And I understand why. Most cars with halogen bulbs have two of them, 55 watts each. that's 110 watts. 35 is less than a third of that. I don't know about LEDs, but they can't possible be any worse, can they?
I had to change out the 35w halogen on my bike for the same reason. Could not see a damn thing when it was dark and the road was wet, it wasn't good even with dry road though. I swapped in some LED hs1 bulbs and that sorted out the lighting.
Be aware I’ve had my lexmoto cypher for 1 week and done 28 miles I derestricted it and my battery is now dead the dealer will not sort as invalidated my warranty I’m left with a bike that doesn’t work
Does actually say that in the description These are designed to be ridden in restricted mode only and if you derestrict it invalidates any warranty and can ruin the batteries
45mph is way too slow to be safe - bikes need to be able to do 55 or not at all - cars driven by 'people' on their morning social-meda sessions whilst driving to work often weave into the curb where I ride my Solex. 55 saves you being overtaken and 45 will get angry cars stacked up behind you - nasty.

Hi! I've bought a motorbike called "M0tr0n V1z1on" (pls replace numbers with letters if you search on that model, M0tr0n removed all restrict info articles from the net so I have to hide the model from algorithms) and made weeks of searching on that how to un-restrict, then took apart and look which controller is inside.

That QS.Motors qs120 70h mid drive motor in the swingarm can take hell of allot more.. That bike is manufactured by Zongshen, in rest of the world its sold as city clicker. There are 3 versions, and this is by far the worst one because of limitations. So, the motor can take 4-5kW in city traffic mode.. And 10kW + peaks giving you healthy 50-6mph top speed and that power slashes the acceleration time in half.. Here's an example.. But ideally you also need a custom build batt to support that power.. th-cam.com/video/lqxvEnairXM/w-d-xo.html
Looks like a an electric Grom type of beast .Wouldn’t say the rear end looks anything approaching Tidy .Looks like the tail end of most modern sport or street motorcycles these days .like it’s been designed as an afterthought or the product of scrapheap challenge .I haven’t seen a decent tail end & pillion seat design since the 2000 year mark 2 Bandit . The bike would be handy for around the city but wouldn’t want to venture much further afield on one .I need at least 70 mph & a range of 200 miles at speeds 50 mph & above ,decent components for around 3 grand on road to tempt me to splash the cash on electric .Interesting review though Mr Rev Bomb 👍
Now thats a question and the answer is yes, I'm not a huge lover of the BMW GS series. I think its an average bike and the boxer engine although reliable is just downright ugly People love them but the look of it just does not appeal to me
sorry, but i disliked. i'm not into the whole electric movement, bikes make noise for a reason lol. all these little 50cc equivalents are just as bad and dangerous as the 50cc mopeds themselves.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion on electric bikes, so thanks for your comments and views Its a place to start for 16 year olds, i think most of us had the FS1E with a loud power pipe as our first bike. Like i said i do love my petrol bikes and my noisy ninja, but the electrics are starting to put up some serious competition in the big bike market ( Harley Livewire, Damon Hypersport, Zero SR, Super Soco, Energica Ego) just to name a few
@@RevBombUK late reply. I get what you're saying RB. But to me, even the bigger electric bikes are an issue because of the lack of noise. We already have a lot of drivers that don't see or hear us coming no matter how loud or bright we are. While i can appreciate the technology, i just cannot agree with it being as positive as people think.. Anyway, hope you're all healed up from the rear ender mate.
Great for my 16 year old son who absolutely loves how easy it is to de-restrict it and reach just shy of 50mph. 16 year olds are restricted to 30mph in Britain.

Not tried the soco but the build quality on the new cypher is amazing
Love

Thanks for the tips!
could you swap the tyres and go off road - not full off road just like farm roads etc?
Yes just choose a good make like pirelli or Bridgestone
Hi rev bomb. Do you know how to derestrict the new cypher as apparently they are different to the old version? Thanks
Will ask lexmoto Monday I thought it should be same
@gandalfthegayridestoisenga4870 same way
