I have a Troxus Explorer, 20ah battery. There is a way to adjust it so power doesn't cut off a 28 mph. I ditched the 26x4 knobbies for 26x3 slicks, Duro Beach Bum. I replaced the chainring with a 52 tooth and the cassette with one with an 11 tooth small cog. I can do meaningful pedaling at 30 mph. My max speed is 35 mph. I've had my Troxus for 6 months and 1300 miles. It is a GREAT bike.
Kyle, you should carry Troxus. We have had them in our store this year with great sales results. The quality is very good and customers seem to like them. I hear they have an impressive product line up coming in 2024.
I think $2,499 is a good point for this bike. I'm trying to add up $2,800 worth but just not getting there. The extra nice frame gives me $200 over a $1, 799 bike. Seat and battery $500. If they do sale prices of $2,499 I think it's very close. Nice job showing it off.👍
This is the kind of bike you need to build. 2.4" or so tires, 27.5 or 29" wheels, large battery, better components, better front fork, torque sensor. I'd be first in line.
Great review! Please don't get me wrong for mentioning, but I hope you're doing well. You've lost a lot of weight and you mentioned that you don't have strength to expend much effort at this point. Just hoping you're hoping doing good Keep up the great work.
Please check your b12 levels to cross that off. Pernicious Anemia/b12 deficiency can cause all kinds of issues including extreme fatigue/lack of strength. @@Area13ebikesAll the best to you.
Love what you're doing with the channel bro it would be really cool if you could dino a wired freedom bike, I'm curious about the real torque that the 2000 watt hengtai motors make
I prefer the cadence sensor every time, after trying many bikes with each..You can still pedal if you want by being in the proper assist level, but when your tired, you can just ghost pedal for all the power to get home fast...Don't think that bike is worth the price, but I like it very much...I think you'll get around 60-75 miles on that bike..30 miles for every 15 AH's has been my experience on many bikes..
@@ravenrock541 Yes..But, I usually go slow and pedal, while exploring nature and then head home full speed..Full speed all the time is 25 miles, per 15 amp hours, atleast on bikes with 22-25 amp controllers..28--50 amp controllers encompasses a whole different metric..
@@realeyesrealizereallies6828 Thanks for the input. I think the size of the tire makes a huge difference in the energy consumed. Same for tire pressure and tread. I commute by bicycle and I know it makes a difference for me. I currently use 26x2 1/4 with commuter tread and run 90 psi. I can really feel the drag if I drop to 60 psi. It took me awhile to find the tires and tubes to handle what I do, but so worth it.
@@ravenrock541 I'm always willing to sacrifice tire efficiency/battery efficiency for comfort...Hence the electric part of the electric bike..I have a road bike, with no electric with 27 1/2 inch 700c tires..And a bafang BBSHD downhill mountain bike with 2.4 inch tires..
Not a bad price considering a 30 AH battery. Lithium batteries still scare me a bit although I already have a Kona Rove e-bike with torque sensor. Now I'm going to electrify a Cruzbike T50 recumbent. This one will have a cadence sensor since I am using a non-drive motor wheel. For me, for most purposes, twenty is plenty.
80lbs but that huge battery probably adds about 7 towards that versus a similar bike with a 48V15Ah pack. I second that about the Suntour NCX suspension seatpost. I have that and a cheap Zoom “pogo-stick” style post. I’ve had huge shocks sent to my knees as the Zoom seatpost compresses while hitting a hard bump due to its motion directly shortening the distance between saddle and crank, whereas the 4-arm linkage design of the Suntour has never done that.
Commuter bikes is what the industry needs to focus on. This one is beautiful but I have a hard time justifying the price when I can buy a used car with air conditioning.
It wouldn't surprise me if you made 150 -175 miles with pedaling, considering the 3" street tires. I wonder what it would be like with either 27.5 X 27.5 or 2.5 X 27.5 street tires. The smaller tires would probably extend the range some. If you carry them in your store and sell some you might see if you can find narrow ebike street tires that are 27.5 and puncture resistant. If you can find someone to ride the bike that much and find smaller tires would that make a good video contrasting the range differences indifferent width tires.
My bike has a 48v 10.5ah battery. I get about 30 miles per charge in the area I'm in. Very hilly. I think realistically, if I stretch it out, I might get 90 miles per charge with that bike.
I would love one of these bikes, but I'm afraid I will have to stick to my $60 mountain bike with BBSHD. The colour of my bike is a butifull shade of red, it will do 50 miles range with it's 20 ah battery. So eighty miles would be a realistic range for the review bike.

do you have mokwheel and hovsco? how do you like them
@@walktowhere8880 we have Hovsco. Like the Hovcart fat tire cargo bike.

Keep up the great work.
My health problems are still undiagnosed. I am slowly improving (I think!) and have lost a lot of weight due to my current diet.
@@Area13ebikes Wishing you a complete recovery soon. And I hope the diet is helping you.

And I think a lot of people including me would love to see electric mountain bike motors tested like bros. Yamaha Bosch Shimano and the SL motors....
Thanks so much for your excellent reviews they are so helpful !!!!!
Those welds must have been ground and polished. So good. I’d be curious about the other colors they have, because that red is eye candy.

Excellent review. Great video.
Commuter bikes is what the industry needs to focus on. This one is beautiful but I have a hard time justifying the price when I can buy a used car with air conditioning.
I would want the option to get full speed and power via the throttle.

Can you do a dyno test on a DIY bike with a Bafang BBSHD? I would really love to see how a DIY mid Drive compares
I beleave he already has if memory serves

@@thebeaglebeat3615 I'm sure he probably reviewed it before but I just figured it would be cool to compare the power to cost ratio with the new dino
Please indicate in your reviews if the battery is UL Certified. I won't even consider a bike unless I know the battery is safe.
Thanks I'll try to check that! Fair point and becoming more common now
At least Troxus uses Samsung cells.
I would love one of these bikes, but I'm afraid I will have to stick to my $60 mountain bike with BBSHD.
The colour of my bike is a butifull shade of red, it will do 50 miles range with it's 20 ah battery.
So eighty miles would be a realistic range for the review bike.
I could as far as the first pub.
You have to do a review on a Vctrip Mimas ebike. You get more for 1600$.
What power management style does it use? Do the PAS levels correspond to speed targets or set amounts of power supplied to the motor?
Pinion ebike motor and transmission in ONE unit
Will you get a chance to check it out? Not sure what manufacturer has it.
I’m curious what size charger comes with it? I’d think it needs a four amp charger for an overnight charge.
Looks like an Aventon frame.
You can ride a bike like that 1000s of miles, dude them tires are tour bike tires best for e-bikes.
30ah batteries are the best. I wouldn't give mine up.
I wonder if there’s a seller who is selling a electric bike for $999,999.99 USD?
