Russ... you need to get yourself a trailer to haul things around with you.
We bought a small one it works great as long as you take your batteries off.
HAHA funny you say that in the first minute. I feel like it doesn't matter what bike you ride, everyone stares at the bikers!! Great video!
Really enjoyed your new route today Russ on NW Highway. Really love the looks of that bike.
Hi Russ. Enjoyed the video. This is an FYI, nothing negative. August 2023 in Minnesota they passed an "Idaho Stop Law." which means bikes (ebikes are classified as bikes) do not have to stop at stop signs, but do have to slow down and yield if necessary. Traffic signals must be obeyed.
They need that in Illinois.
My legs are healing. There is a lot less purple and red, and the swelling is going down. Still hurts like hell. It will be a week, or two, before they are healed enough for a street ride, a month before I go riding the back trails, which is funner, more exciting, and... perilous. Maybe a set of knee pads is in order before challenging Holly Springs road again? You know what they say, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger." Right, tell thst to my knees. LOL! I'm still laughing about my wipe-out! Too bad there was no one to see it. It was epic! And I did my best Superman impression, flying through the air, to date. The landing wasn't so good, though.
Takes time.
Thanks for the ride Russ. I heard the cicadas on your video. You're about to be knee deep in cicadas around Chicago. I would use them as fish bait.
One of my fishing friends tried one but didn’t catch anything with it. Well try it again later.
Beautiful day!
It is a nice day I need to getout today. I did lose weight down to 227 from 239 that I had been stuck at for awhile. Me and my wife eat same as you and your wife does most of the time.
Hey thanks for the help on the derailleur hanger, I was able to get it straight enough to go for a test ride. 26-inch e-bikes are huge!!!!!! If I had the option to do it again, I would definitely go with a step thru. I feel like the family jewels are in peril riding such a big bike.☺
I love garage sales. One never knows what will be there. My husband uses a kayak for fishing. I used to kayak but I can no longer get in and out of it. My knees do not bend that low.
Yeah, that would be a challenge for me too.
Funny you said that because I've not long ordered my mobility scooter. It does fold up and fit in my suv, so I'm looking forward to receiving that shortly it will be a change from riding my bikes Russ, but good for my hospital appointments and other stuff 😊
Beef roll is what others might also call em. Get the ground beef instead of sausage next time! Good vid again Russ
Good discipline maintaining your diet Russ. It isn't easy.
I watched one review about the Engwe and the only thing he didn’t like was the motor cutting off at 20mph. If you wanted to go faster you would have to peddle. I’m up in the air about purchasing this bike.
True. 28 only happens if you pedal.
Make a kayak trailer and pull behind a bike....😁
I also kayak, so I have a small Malone kayak trailer and added their single bike rack to it. Good workout.
The circadias come out every 13 to 17 years apparently. So not exactly an every 17 year thing.
There’s 15 different broods of periodic cicadas spread in different territories from Nebraska to the east coast. Most are 17 years (12 of the 15), though three are on 13 year cycles, but every generation is on the same cycle as their parents, they don’t alternate between 13 and 17. There are 17 year broods and 13 year broods, their offspring will be on those same schedules. And they will be exactly 13 or 17 years. This year a 13 year brood and a 17 year brood happen to be emerging in a small overlapping area near where Russ is. There are also cicadas that come out every year, but that’s a different thing and in way fewer numbers.
Great ride! Will keep watching! 😁 Can't wait to see new product!!
Nice ride....thanks.😊
You need a Class 4 e-bike for all the street riding you do. I actually think it'll be safer for you. 👍😎
What’s a Class 4 e-bike?
@@ArmandGirard "Class 4 distinction of e-bikes is emerging. These e-bikes go beyond the capabilities of Class 3 and have a maximum speed over 28mph and a power output of over 750 watts. These e-bikes blur the lines between bicycles and electric mopeds/motorbikes."
@@DJaquithFL Must be an industry definition because from what I've researched, no State mentions a Class 4 e-bike in their laws.
@@ArmandGirard .. in any case he clearly needs a much faster e-bike if he's constantly writing on the street. So what classification is a bike that has pedals that goes 45 or 60 miles an hour?
@ArmandGirard Doesn’t exist.
What do you think about the Torque sensor ride. You seemed to think it worked and was fine. That’s my only concern about the Engwe. I like the bike.
Some people like torque sensors and other do not. If you want to work out and ride like a regular bike, the torque sensor is the way to go. The cadence sensor is easier.
Hi Russ in todays ride you mention you use a stool on your fishing bike. Do you have a photo you can share. Thanks
Can’t show a photo in the comments. I will show it in a future video
You coupd get an emmo momster 72v or 84v
What about us short people that can’t ride those bikes. I got an XPeak and did some upgrades to it and now I’m trying to figure out how to ride it. I’m looking at getting a Engle Pro 2 with dual suspension. I’m short and it would be more comfortable for me based on your review. What do you think.
It might work. Depends on your inseam measurement.
Can sit on while fishing and haul your gear on a cargo.😊
Not sure what you are asking. If you are asking if you can sit on a bike while fishing, the answer is no. If you are asking whether a cargo bike can be used to haul gear, sure.
@@RussIsRight ah ok, I can sit on mine while parked. Love the cargo kickstand.
🎣 cool
For popeyes 16.99 for 10 peices sounds cheap. Considering popeyes canada i only get 4 peices and side and biskit
😳
Hey Russ. I’m new to e-bikes. Do you have to adjust the gears while riding the D7? Not sure I understand how the gears work. Is gear shifting only necessary if you are using the throttle?
If you are going up a hill and you want to pedal, you'll want to use a lower gear while pedaling up the hill. If you are on level ground and want to pedal, you'll want to use a higher gear if you are wanting to go faster while pedaling. For pedaling, you also have what is called PAS (pedal assist from the motor). The PAS level determines how much the motor helps you as you pedal. A low PAS number has very small amount of motor help. A higher PAS number means the motor is going to help you a lot more as you pedal. This makes pedaling easier and you can go faster. There is also the kind of sensor for the motor to consider. A torque sensor means that you only get more motor assist IF you pedal harder. So if you were on the highest level of pedal assist but you pedaled very softly, you are going to move slowly. Pedal harder, the torque sensor will sense you are working harder and then will give you more motor assist. Cadence sensors means that no matter how hard you pedal, whatever the PAS level is set for, that's how much the motor will help you. So essentially, just move your legs slowly on the pedals and with PAS 5 on, you're going to be flying on that bike! It is a lot easier to ride a cadence sensor bike. You will work harder with a torque sensor, but many people want to feel like they are still getting a workout. Those people will want a torque sensor bike. For throttling, it doesn't matter what the gears are set for because it doesn't matter when throttling. However, some throttles are based on the PAS level. So for example, on some bikes if you have a peddle assist level for 3, then the throttle will only help move you to a certain mph. But on other bikes, even on PAS 1, full throttle means fastest speed no matter what the lower PAS level is set for.
@@RussIsRight, I appreciate the explanation and insight. I understand now. Thanks a lot!
😎🤘🏻🇺🇲🍻
Put your battery in a back pack.
10 lbs or more typically. Too heavy for a backpack for me.
