With speeds up to 36 mph, 20 inch fat tires, and adjustable full suspension, the Ariel Grizzly will crush any terrain thrown your way.
The Ariel Rider Grizzly is by far the most powerful eBike we have reviewed!

Special thanks to Ariel Rider for providing this Grizzly for review. We do not get paid to make reviews. Purchases made through our links do go to help support the CZcams Channel and websites.
Changing the speed limiter is at the rider's own risk. Please check your local ebike laws to make sure you’re not breaking any laws. Ariel Rider/Arba International LLC is designing their ebikes to go at an optimal 20mph and is not liable for any damage that might occur due to high speeds. Components of the Grizzly are subject to higher wear when compared to bikes without power assistance. This is because Grizzly can travel at higher average speeds than regular cycles and has a greater weight. Higher wear is not a defect in the product and is not subject to warranty. Typical components affected are the tires, brake pads and rotors, suspension forks, spokes, wheels, and the battery pack.

Damn you're riding it like u stole it! 🤣🤣
Old habits are hard to break! 😝
@@freshlycharged thanks for the video. I saw that you posted a 43 mile range test using full throttle.
Did you perform that test and if so what was the speed you were able to maintain.
Thanks 👍
@@freshlycharged @Jimmy is the CTY2 a better bike for the same amount of cash?
@@BOOSTEDLASER I would say 100% yes
this dude is otta order lol.
It's refreshing to see someone riding these powerful ebikes while still being safe around people and not being a jerk. Props!
I like how you say “thank-you” to the dog….haha!
I had ordered my Grizzly V52 on June 12, 2021 and I was really excited about the purchase. Went out and bought all these accessories for the bike expecting delivery on July 15, 2021 but that never happened. 4 months went by, still no delivery and all I got from Ariel Rider was excuses so I cancelled my order for something better. I was refunded my money in 2 days, I ordered the Spark Cycleworks Bandit with dual batteries on October 5 and it was delivered to me in 1 week. This eMoped is the truth and it's definitely worth every penny I paid for it.
As a Grizzly owner, I'm sorry you went through that and had a purchase an e-bike that slightly under performs, compared to it.
@@2minicanologyYea the sparks bandit is more customizable and a good E-Bike but it definitely can't outperform the Grizzly
I was just as impressed with that cool little pathway you were on as I was with the bike...
Denver has some amazing paths!
Is pedaling a pain? You're one of the first reviewers I've seen actually pedaling the bike.
I definitely need one of those. My 20mph ebike just isn't cutting it. Also, you ride like a madman!
Radrunner brother wassup
All these Ebikes are limited to 20 for legality reasons most of not all can be unlocked to go faster tho 28-30 is max for most this one is a bit more peppy than most.
Looks fun but the bell. 🔔 lol
Great videos. Please make more Grizzly Content. Your videos are among the best out there..
Thanks for the kind words!
I love the sound of the engines. Gotta have this
I ordered my Ariel Rider Grizzly V52 on June 12th of this year and it'll be shipped out on July 31st. I already purchased custom upgraded parts so once it arrives I'll put everything together carefully, go into the settings menu to fully unlock this bike, charge the batteries and then take it out on a full ride the very next day. If you go to the Ariel Rider website now to order the Grizzly V52 it's completely sold out so I'm happy I purchased it when I did.
Nice video, it would be cool to see you compare this with the Super73 RX, the Grizzly performs better, but I feel like the RX just looks so much better.
just got mine assembled last night! so sick!!
How long did it take you?
Love the content! You keep me motivated to get a one wheel pint every time I watch your videos.
Ordered my grizz v2 over various other bikes thanks to this video
I just ordered it. Cannot cannot wait to get it
I got it finally. It's a great bike. Love it, love it. Dual motor mode could help wrap yourself around a pole tho

I have a D4 plus and a D6 plus Kick Scooter. Was thinking about getting a faster better one. But now I'm thinking about some things to sit down on it. Like this
Been sittin’ on the fence on this one for awhile.....but now, I’m sold.😎👍 Thanks for sharing brotha 👍🇺🇸🇵🇭🇺🇸🇵🇭🚵🏽♂️
Get off that fence and get riding!
Stay on the fence it'll be months before the Grizzly is ever delivered and you'll wind up cancelling you're order. It's a great bike but Ariel Rider can't make good on delivery.
@@denniebone388 worth the wait bro mine took 4 months to come but I been riding since even in 20 degree weather 🥶🤣🤙🏽
@@buckyrawstine I've been riding my Sparks Cycleworks Bandit here in New York City in 20 degree weather too and I'm very happy with this purchase. I have nothing against the Grizzly at all but the Ariel Rider company itself was my problem. Don't advertise made in the USA but you're product comes from China.
@@denniebone388 how much is the bandit?
Do you think he thinks the bike is a lot of fun 😂
Thanks for the video.
Question: I saw the screen splash quoting a 43 Mile full throttle battery test.
Did you perform that test and what top speed, or Average speed were you able to maintain?
Also were you running both front and back Motors I'm kind of thinking you did.
Thanks 👍
eThanks for the eReview ;)
Man this e bike is crazy 💪🏾🔥💯
I just need one of those so bad. Also I think I need a scout trooper helmet cause that's what this reminds me of.
Had a smile 😊 on my face the whole time watching you have so much Fun. I just ordered one ☝️ for me & one ☝️ for my wife. Thank you. Live What You Love With An Attitude of Gratitude. 👊 🍻
Baller!👍
I ordered the grizzly and d class for my wife. Unless your wife is on the taller side, she may feel more comfortable on the D class.
This is the video I want.No bs just hop on and tear ass I love it!
Made me want one like yesterday
Glad you enjoyed it!
I MIGHT GET THIS!
What drone model is following you? Great shots!
Dang someone had way too much fun there 🤣🤣 That's one awesome ebike albeit with some rather noisy scratchy hub motors.. seems to be the only mull point i can see with that.. Really enjoyed this and your last video on it. Thanks for sharing :)
You really don't notice the noise when riding... I think it's because of all the adrenaline! 🤣
@@freshlycharged How does the power / range change when you alternate between the single battery on or having both on at the same time.. given it is a 2 x 1000w motor set up.. it is literally a case of 1 battery per motor ? or is it simply total power being delivered to both
@@oddtechman the power does not change but Ariel Rider suggest to keep both batteries on and they will deplete at even rates.
@@Andrew-vt4jt ah okay! That's interesting. Awesome thanks :)
The motors are geared, not direct drive; and they have steel gears instead of plastic/ nylon for longevity. I'll take the noise for these features.
Man, that area looks like a true blast to ride in.
You would love it!
I'll take you on it when you come visit!
What city are these bike trails in ?
In Colorado huh I do delivery’s on my magicycle but I only get 20 miles on pedal assist I’m thinking about switching to the Areil ebike
Got mine early last Summer
Looks fun!
So much fun!
My Grizzly just came in. Yes!!!!!!
You mentioned you were unable to get up that 30 degree hill on throttle alone. Could you do it in a lower gear? It seems that with 2000 watts you ought to be able to get up a hill like that without pedaling.
It did say you can use just the front motor or just a rear motor or both motors at the same time ??????? correct ?????? is there any difference in top speed when doing so like if you use just the front motor ? what's the top speed if you use just the back motor ? what's the top speed and when you use both motors together ? what's the top speed??????
great clip 🙃
Loved the video! So will the dual 1000w motors have a higher top speed than the dual 750w motors?
No it wont. It will have more torque/acceleration to reach top speed quicker and better climbing power
@@stugots101 dang I thought it would make it jump up to 50mph 🤣🤣 what’s wrong with my logic is there a reason why it doesn’t reach speeds that fast if the motors jumped up so much 2000 watts
@@mando2.049 the thing is that even though the motor upgraded the controller can not take that many watts I think so if you upgrade the controller it would unlock the true potential of this bike thus reaching 50 miles an hour which would be oh so fun!
I think if you put some street tires on there it'd be a lot quieter and smoother may go a little faster
Can you change the batteries for more amps and mileage?
Another excellent video and the Grizz looks really sure-footed off road for a moped-style e-bike. The 'throttle only' mileage is pretty impressive too.
Skydio 2 for drone shots?
Love your guys’ videos. I ordered a Grizzly because of your vids on it. I was between the Grizzly and the Blade 2 by Rize bikes. I ordered a Rize RX Pro and it’s an amazing EBike! It was my first EBike. I have a Kaboo Wolf Warrior 11, this started my personal electric vehicle obsession! LOL.
I ended up canceling my Grizzly order a couple days ago and ordered a Blade 2.
Have you guys tested Rize Bikes?
The Blade 2 looks awesome and theres a few videos on it on CZcams.
You canceled your grizz for a rb2??!
@@taylorrussell3158 yes I did. After reading all the posts in the Grizzly owners group with bikes showing up damaged and/or already having issues with the bike. I’m loving my RX Pro and can’t wait for my Blade 2. If I were 20 years younger I would’ve totally gone with the Grizzly for sure!
Can the seat move back ?
How heavy are you Jimmy? I am 200 Lbs. If I add my son, who is 58 Lbs. Do you think we can still achieve 30 mph?
Range?
Is that a drone shot?
I think that bike must be “a ton of fun!” 😁
Too funny. I laughed after Jimmy showed me the cut and said I needed to come up with something else to say besides fun. However, the Grizzly was a ton of fun! :)
@@Andrew-vt4jt that does look like a sweet ride!
I do UberEATS and doordash on my pace500 but I think I'm a kick it up a notch with one of these
Have the first wave dual 750w version and I love it! Great city ride. Lots of power, gear function is flawless, brakes are strong. No issues since opening the box. Possibly better range than the 1000w version as there is less power draw.
Only minor nits are: two different keys, one for each battery. Wish they were keyed the same. Also, two chargers needed to charge both batteries simultaneously, but it only comes with one. So far, to my knowledge, you still can't buy a second 52v charger from Ariel. Which is annoying for overnight charging.
Another small caveat is legroom is short with the single saddle. (You can sit back with the dual saddle, but I chose to have a luggage rack. You can't have both.) Not too bad because little pedal effort is needed and throttle works great. It is more like a moped than a pure bike.
Some quirks, but overall, I just love riding this thing.
1000 watt 2nd gen also has a bigger battery to make up for this!
@@elevenAD Hi, yes, I see that batts are bumped from original 32ah to 35ah. I stand corrected.
@@bkanegson either way both kick ass! my neighbor has the 1st gen 750 and that thing is a beast!
Nice, I live near there
No way!
You said $2,999 I tried it when you work so what is a treble like won't do it
Been watching this bike for a while, really looks amazing. How long did it take to get it once you ordered it? I remember seeing it was a few months or so?
The new ones should be shipping out around Mid August. However, they are close to being sold out and I would say the next shipment will be 3 months.
Where was this filmed?
i need oneee
Thinking of getting this concerned it’s not fast enough though
The surron would've made it up that hill no problem. I'm torn between the 2, leaning towards the grizzly because of the price. But idk
bought both 🤣 so excited . Bank account is upset tho . Sur Ron coming Thursday!!!!
@@gregorypahl7690 if you can afford 2 then I guess I need a better job.... lmao.
@@andrewm3150 lmao na Tbh I’m just a little dumb with my money. But there’s no price on happiness! And ebiking so far has been great and really helps my mental health- it’s almost therapeutic . One is plenty!
What park is this at
Looks like a real fun bike. I just wish that it had all the intigrated street safety gear that my juiced Hyperscorpion comes with - turn signals, brake light and motorcycle horn. You trying to alert nearby cars with that little bell just made me cringe everytime.
I might pick this as my choice over the Segway x 260..and save thousand dollars
Its funny,when u go through th er park ,everyone head in th er park ,turns to look,u get more attention on ebikes than if u have a Lamborghini lol!
I felt bad riding through the park. They were giving someone an award and I stole the show.
You are right about the attention it gets. 😂
what's the weight for the bike without the batteries on? Curious if there's a hitch that can carry this bike
105 lbs with the batteries. I will try to take them off to weigh them for you.
@@Andrew-vt4jt trying to figure out the best way to transport this hefty bike around. Unfortunately I get my Grizzly end of August.
Damn price went up
What state is this in ?
What is the app you use to test your speed?
I use a Dragy system to track the speed. It's accurate but you have to buy a $150 satellite box from them.
YEW!
Beast
Are you keeping it? 😎
So nice, reviewed twice.
If it takes that riding habits it should last me forever 😂
Is it fun?
Let’s go!
Bro going to have no breaks after one day holy shit
0:50 You're pedaling crazy fast yourself so how's that speed test supposed to have any meaning to it?
Slowing down for pedestrians (and dogs) is what will keep the public accepting eBikes on paths, good example displayed here.
3100 is the price right now 😕
😢
Imagine if they can get the weight down on the bike it would be a uphill monster
I’ve seen this thing go up 30% grade hills at 22 mph
I've watched quite a few reviews on this bike, some with the duo 750w, but this is the fist that went offroad and it looks made for it. Unless you want to pay over 4 grand for the sur-ron, (and no peddles), it looks like one of the funnest bikes for the money. I could probly not do to bad on one against my brother on his sur-ron x black, thou he could do wheelies and the grizzy..?
what app is that?
It's the built in screen on the bike.
Upgrade the crank teeth to a higher number and that thing can easily get over 40mph pedaling
Wow! Think so? That would be cool to do
@@JmieCZcams yeah change the gearing you can still pedal at high speeds like a road bike, speed tops out because the motors can't produce anymore momentum.
Hi All, I'm almost 60 year old man who bought an electric bike because he had surgery on both needs but found out that even biking makes my knees swell up.
I was thinking of purchasing an electric scooter to ride with the family so I didn't feel left out. I know nothing about electric scooters.
A few things I would like to see is a big deck, extremely comfortable for an older person. At least 30 in speed and a decent amount of battery.
I had it limited too the wolf King or the vsett 10+r.
Does that mean anyone have an opinion on these or anyone have a suggestion that may be better.
Budget: 1500 to 3000
Hi Jack! I would worry about you standing too long on a scooter due to your new knees, that I would try to look for a seated scooter or step thru ebike with a trigger throttle. If you are set on scooter, I would prefer the VSETT 10+r over the Wolf King. Lots of different options so more details would help me choose the best PEV for you. How tall are you?
@@Andrew-vt4jt 6'0 and 265 lb.. My knees don't hurt standing, only if I over work them. My plan was to ride my bike one day and give my knees a break and take the scooter the next day. Using the Ebike 3 to 4 times a week, blows my knees up.
Since they converted to 1000 watt motors, this is going to be a motorized vehicle in most States because Federal law is still at 750 watt. So people will need to register and license the bike and conform to motorized vehicle laws.
“There’s my neighbors” 😂 what app are you using?
lol, that bell is is not match for the motor....
The Grizzly is a Beast to say the Least. My buddy has one, but I think he's afraid to ride it 😆 🤣
He'll probably read this comment 🤣
Sounded like Ronnie the dog wanted a ride
When I go uphill with my electric bike I pedal because it goes a little more faster my electric bike is called heybike
You should practice on your stopping
*I like a guy who thanks a dog* !
Did he say " hey little pepperoni "? 5:30
Andrew loves talking to dogs that he meets. He calls the cute one's "pupperoni"
@@freshlycharged love it
A turtle? Where the hell was that?
slow down round peds then roost them wi grit n pebbles!!!
Haha, I make sure not to roost them. I go a fair distance and then accelerate slowly.
▪
3 grand and can't go up a 30 degree hill with just the throttle...
Okay, then.
🟥
You seem slightly guilty as you drive by people haha
The funnest, really, what are you four years old, its the most ENJOYABLE bike, wow you guys and your pre school English how does that not embarrass you dude !!! ?
Grow up!
@@watchyamouth5053 Buy a dictionary......
@@Piddlefoots Get a life 🤣
too expensive for a bicycle even if its more than that
Since this ebike is so powerful over grass why didn't the rider just pass people that had baby strollers/kids/dogs/etc with them by just swerving around them on the grass? He unnecessarily "dinged" people off the beaten path in my opinion. Great review otherwise.
Ebike? This is a moped by most standards.. which is too bad.
Your saddle is waaaay to low.
I get anxious when I see someone riding with no gloves. Good vid though.
I couldn't find my riding gloves that day. What kind of gloves do you like to use?
@@Andrew-vt4jt BMX Fox gloves with palm and nuckle protection. I came of a scoot 2 weeks ago, not fast but I'm still suffering with pulled tendons and muscles. :(
