A main reason is Indians still look down at cycle as a 'low class' vehicle. Almost everyone thought that I've gone broke and couldn't afford a scooter when I bought a lectro for commute. Things will look up once this mindset changes. Corona-induced fuel inflation has started this change in the mindset now.
Damn. Truth bomb bro! 🔥 So fucking true. I hope things change soon.
True, same thing i felt.
@@MaddyKoko ppls have to change. Bcoz now this electric two wheelers market is too vast. For short commute u can have ebicycle. For long commute you have low speed, high speed EScooty, ebikes and wat not. So if ur not purchasing evehicles then its just an excuse.... Hope ppls will change .....
Totally agree
When I walk around my neighborhood I notice 40% of the vehicles haven't moved from their spot for months, collecting dust, flat tires. That was when i decided that its wasteful to own those things and try to commute with battery power now.
I've been using E-bikes in Canada since 2005. They are, i think, the best way to get around - cheap and good for the world! I live in very hilly Vancouver (and am now well into my 60s) and the bikes have let me leave cars behind and get around easily.
That's awesome! Ebikes are just starting to show up in Indian markets since few years now. I hope people everywhere start realising the benefits that you've mentioned and switch from cars to e-bikes soon. ✌🏽
You're doing a fantastic job. This channel has great potential and has immense value to the viewers.
Thank you ✌🏽
@@MaddyKoko I have a question...
Can I fix a suspension fork in hero lectro glide tx 26' as it has quick release wheel in front so could it be fitted in suspension fork and also be a options for disc break connector ??
Because of the bad road conditions of my locality. I am from west bengal after rainy monsoon the roads get worst...
The way u clarifies everything about ecycle is awesome......before taking decission to buy an e cycle ur videos is a must watch......my lectro c6 is on the way.....reaching to me before 25th.....lets hope for the good result
how is the c6 ??
The main problem is not speed it's about RANGE.... kam se kam 60-80km per charge ki range me cycles aaye to log zaroor lenge.... Qki 25-30 range ho to bahut factors affect karte hai.. Weight of driver, other things, traffic, road condition etc....
Skellig pro new cycle
You forgot the main reason, that plague even cycles and electric cycles.
1)bad roads
2) bullies on road driving taxis and cars and motorcycles.

Play at 1.25 speed, thank me later. This guy is super slow
i play at 2x
Exactly
I did that🤣🤣...Was about to make the same comment
Tried 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Everyone has his style !
He is super cool and I am sure in real life he is the same !!
Apologies for my dissent 🙏🙏
I see regular news that xyz student/college designed a very good e-cycle and selling them at competitive prices,but when i wanna buy cycle i only see the names of big brands only.
Beautifully explained. I’ve been an EV car user and a Bicycle rider…and am checking for options for E-cycles now. Foldable ones too, as it’s very convenient to have a bicycle in the boot of your car!
Electric bicycle Companies should pay for this valuable suggestion to the Guy.
Maddy it's really true that test ride needed. Your information will really help before buying electric cycle.The factors favouring to buy this cycle are actually beneficial. Under current scenario not getting inflected by pollution or infected people this will be best solution. Do keep guiding and giving such information.
Like you said in video I have tried to search many option available in Pune. But not able to decide what to do
So, I Request you to please suggest me a good e- bicycle below are my requirements...
1) City commute
2) Front back disk break
3) With min 7 gears
4) pedal assist and all that stuff which all e bicycle have.
5) Detachable battery if possible.
6) easy & reliable customer support for repair if required.
7) EMI option availablity
8) Home delivery option.
9) upgradation options if any
10) warranty & guarantee of the product, battery etc.
Most important is e bicycle can be used in rainy season? Are they water resistance (heavy rain)
Ver nice and informative video. However I feel the main reason for not using them is fear of theft and figiting a parked bicycle. You cannot park them at public places other wise be sure that they will be stolen or broken. This is why they are not practical in India
Yes true. So in tht respect sealed battery make more sense. And if u live in apartment thn u just need to install a 6 amp plug from ur meter which is mainly in ground floor only.
I agree. Hence I prefer E-Bikes that aren't very heavy on design, stand out and grab attention. Something simple that doesn't grab too much attention should be a safer option in comparison.
One of the big reason people don't go for electric bicycle is its high costs, weather conditions, dusty environment and pollution.
You accurately spoke my mind 👍 these are all the exact concerns that I have in mind. Hope in 2022 we have a brand that comes with a product that has a solution for all the concerns highlighted in this video
Bro aapka hii pura 5,6 videos dekke electric cycle buy krne ki soch raha hoon so apko bout trust kr raha hoon n good job👍
Very good, transparent and unbiased opinion ..... Good job friend
Spot on bro. I have been researching to buy one and was stuck with Etraid 1. But the after sales and spares is the reason i did not spend to buy. The companies should look at your advanced view for their future. Great job.......
Hello Sir 👋
I'm planning to buy a E-bike of Hero Lectro but I don't know which model will be the best for me😅 My budget is around 25k to 30k
So could you please suggest me some good models which have some unique features in it. Waiting for your response 💯♥️
E-CYCLE FOR ABOVE 50K IS TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY, YOU CAN BUY A NORMAL GEAR CYCLE FOR 10K AND CONVERT IT TO ELECTRIC CYCLE WITH AN ELECTRIC KIT PURCHASED FROM AMAZON, TAKE YOUR CYCLE AND THAT KIT TO A CYCLE REPAIR SHOP AND THEY WILL EASILY FIX THE MOTOR AND BATTERY COMPONENTS IN Rs200 , and this will not cost you more than 10K , so total cost 20K, 10k for cycle and 10K for ELECTRIC kit, now why its better than hero e-cycle which is priced at less than 20K, because your assembled bike will have a removable battery, which is convenient to charge and replace, secondly battery in assembled bike is more powerful and gives throttle mileage of more than 30km, thirdly you can later on mount a battery with more capacity later on after 2-3 years of use, as universal cycle batteries are available in different power options for different range like 40km, 60km etc.
Exactly.
Can u send me a single link where u will get an ebike conversion kit with 10k which can run 40-60 km.... And also which will give some short of warrenty. If not the plz dont misguide ppls.
I'm all up for Conversion Kits and I completely agree with the points you made. A concern I faced with a brand who sells E-Bike kits in Pune was shortage of deliveries from their own suppliers. If that's the case with brands then little do I know the case could be with online sellers on Amazon. Warranty and water resistance of the parts would be a point to thoroughly check as well. Maybe buying a cheap E-Bike by a popular brand like Lectro, using it until the warrenty lasts and then modifying it could be another solution I believe. ✌🏽 That said, I'm open to try conversion kits myself.
@@BR-rg9ib kachra china u get in 10k. Spent 30/40k n buy good e cycle with 18/24 mnths warranty
@@mumbaikan9185 No eBicycle kit less than 18 k, because the LiOn battery is more than 11k...
I am going to purchase hero lectro , I want to ask what is battery life,what is battery replacement cost and what's your battery performance after 3 year, have you changed any major parts in 3 years
main problems with e cycles are:
easy to steel
people just try to touch or poke it if u r away from it.
range must be atleast 40km with 40km speed. with price below 35k.
Speed shouldn't be 40. Otherwise how would people without licence use it.
Most of the Indians still think that cycles are for poor people but once they come to know the cost of average road bike, they get shocked 😅
Beautiful kadamba tree in bloom in the background! Must smell heavenly
I searched lot cycles and called personally to company mentioned numbers on websites , but non one pick calls except hero and 91 . i want to mentioned my moral to buy this cycle is lower now due to no one answered calls for buying cycle then how they service after sales. ?
You just expressed all my confusions so clearly. I'm planning to buy one to avoid public transport in this pandemic situation. Do you think carrywheels freedom e-bike would be a good option? Also, are these bikes water proof?Plz share your opinion.
Hi,
I’m planning for electric Bicycle which one is best however, i have done my research but i am bit confused. Can you tell me which one is best.
My budget is 30k - 40k
Same
Very valuable observation and suggestions. Really useful post.
You have covered the points very well. One more point encountered in e cycles comapred to motorcycles and scooters is high maintenance such as punctures, chain tightening, brake tightening and wear which specifically bothers people , if you commute for more kms in a day.
Excellent video. Well articulated. Thankyou
Can do a video of best e bicycle with diff range of battery capacity
+1
While I could do that based on the range numbers shared by the brands themselves, it could still be unfair if somebody buys one on my recommendation and turns out the range achieved is much less. I'll need to try variety of E-Bikes myself to claim a certain number. On paper, the Hero Lectro EHX20 claims 80kms range (₹1,35,00), Helieo H200 and M200 claims range of 75kms (₹48k and ₹52k) and the Helieo M100 has a claimed range of 65kms (₹44k). These are some of the highest claimed range ebikes available. Again, with all honesty, I can't be sure because I haven't tested them myself ✌🏽
@@MaddyKoko I owe toutche's h200 and it gave me 62km range , my weight is 107.
Truly Genuine Points 👍
@@MaddyKoko are tey waterproof
Dear Maddy , buying lectro kinza 7s @ 24999/- from flipkart will be a good deal or not? I used to ride bicycle in my childhood a lot, but now I ride bikes only, and want to go relive my childhood days once again, should I go for this? My present workplace is about 8 km away from my home. Is kinza easy to ride in paddle mode? Actually I want to buy a cycle , so will it be better to buy kinza instead of a normal geared cycle? Plz inspire me
Thank you দাদা (elder brother)..I am going to buy electric bicycle. Literally I fall in confusion which one to buy or either electric bicycle actually worthy or not. You give us lot of clarification about that..
So Thanks again.God bless you.
And You Tube, please promote this video, it's very important informative and helpful. 🙏
Speed should be atleast 35, also mileage is also very low....yes as someone said it depends on the weight of people to people...
Can I increase 5amps battery to 10amps battery. Which hero elect cycle is best, which cycle can carry load for example my weight is 100kbg so pls reply. And less rate
Bro can I ask what is 'Safety Throttle Auto Cut Off' ? I am going to buy a cycle cost 39k (triad e7) is it worth it?
Thank you Dada, for sharing your experience.
Cheers! ✌🏽
amazing explanation. Thanks for the awareness
Nice review .....valid points.....I always thought y d hell dese companies r making e cycle with non removable batteries....they r interested in selling their bike to people living in apartments????......strange
Yes true. But i have ebike with removable battery ETRON. And using it for over a year now. And I hardly removes battery while charging. Bcoz plugs are everywhere. Even in our building there are two 6 amp plug in parking. And if plug not available, thn u can ask electrician to take out a plug point from ur meter.
IKR!! I too wonder the same. Removable battery should be a very obvious feature in all E-Bikes. I'm glad to see brands shifting to it gradually and I hope all E-Bikes come with removable batteries soon. ✌🏽
@@MaddyKoko Elecetric cycles in India are mostly Chinese imported components, assembled in India, and all try to sell online only. No personal checking ability..no wonder electric cycles not available to try and buy. Raulic Inzio interests me, because of its 21 speed transmission. 13 AH bettery..but priced @₹ 47k...
No reliable reviewers doing the proper professional job.
I'm against Reason 3:
I consider inbuilt battery as an advantage against getting stolen.
Even for the bicycle itself especially lectro is so discreet that people don't even recognise it as an e bike.
Nb: I had to speed up the video 1.5x to make this video bearable to watch. You are a very slow talker!!!
I think it's quite interesting, that you're speaking to us in two languages during one talk.
It's a fine idea...but you need to pause a second when you're about to use the other language.
I think also you might use hand gestures to alert us english speakers when you have switched back to english.
Your accent is still rather strong and it takes some doing to make out your meaning in english.
I applaud your positive goals.
Play the video at 1.25x speed. Thank me later.
Btw Good video 👍🏼
Yas
Very nicely narrated and explained. You hit the bull's eye.
Let me share my experience.
I searched for Hero Lectro dealer in Ahmedabad but I am not able to find one even from Google. I called one Hero Motocorp dealer believing he may have e-bicycle too but they didn't have any knowledge about e-bicycle dealership.
If this is the situation with Hero then what to expect from others!
Try searching here herolectro.com/store-locator.php
I searched Ahmedabad and a lot of dealers showed up ✌🏽 Also, Hero Motorcorp is a different entity altogether so they won't have any idea about ebikes.
@@MaddyKoko but Hero is hardly innovating now that China connexion is broke..all Hero did was import parts from China and sell bikes. They can innovate and capture big 500 crore market..but typical Ludhiana thinking., Only think China.
Now delhi govt give incentives on electric vehicles... ☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️ Make video on this topic pls
Nice job. I believe every housing society or building should have dedicated secured charging points for e vehicles.
my daily travel distance for office is around 45 kms, which e-cycle will be best sir.
The main reason people not buying e cycles in india is
1. The quality of cycle is not good. They use local tyres. Parts. All cheap. Steel heavy frame. Cheap lithium battery. No rear suspension. They dont care for the quality. They just want to earn money. One should think of making innovative things. I liked the Tezlla e bike. It's very innovative. Got every kind of new concepts with lights. Display meter. Mobile holder. Rear suspension. Folding bicycle. After sales service. Home charging the battery. Every manufacturer should think and come out with new innovations.
True bro some lot of rich guy buy ebike arounf 40 or 60 thousand but its just around 20 to 30 thousand they don't release it that making it expensive so owners of shop don't give any discounts or make it lower price they just make it unaffordable
Fantastic point of view 👌, brother. Would you recommend to purchase aurora infinity2.0, as they don't have any service station or show room at Chennai. Is that service good and spares available in online
Dude I am marketing person and I travel everyday one shop to shop but that's in Mumbai and because of heavy traffic I don't think bike is best option to commute for field work. But now I am thinking about electric cycle but i have one doubt in my mind that can we travel daily 40km round trip ? If you experiencing any difficulties please share because I also want to purchase cycle instead of bike to save my travel expenses which out of my budget
Please do reply
40 km its difficult with hero lectro as it has just 5.2 Ah battery. Go for ebicycle having more than 10 Ah battery. ETRON+ having 13.2 Ah battery. Throttle only goes to 50 km and with 3-4 level paddle assist goes upto 60-70 km. In mumbai it must hv dealers also.
Hi have you seen Roulik Inizio 37.0 bike, what is your opinion about Roulik Inizio and Hero Town master which should I choose. Please help
Hey Maddy, please tell me kind of maintenance required.I have a heard from few people that there is need of frequent maintenance of spokes as they get loosen.please reply
SIR THE WAY YOU SPEAK I LIKED IT VERY MUCH. PLUS THE SIMPLICITY AND SPEAKING IN SIMPLE ENG LANGUAGE.
Another reason it's not safe to park bicycle anywhere near shop or mall. Can get stolen and no designated parking for cycles.
E scooters score better in this regard
E scooter can accommodate two persons. E cycle may not accommodate two persons.
E-cycle or E- scooter which is better.
You forgot 1 major reason, Infrastructure. Indians don't follow any rules on road and if I plan to take my bike to the office I can't park it on the road like normal bikes. There's a huge probability that it will be stolen.
The main reason is range. Anything less then 100km is just not practical outside of cities.
Detailed observation ✌️❤️
There's no good electric cycles with good mudguards, it is not useful in rainy season
Buy one on Decathalon I did that
Mudguards are sold separately. You need to choose the Mudguard when you buy the cycle. Make sure you buy the full sized ones, the short ones don't protect your back and bottom part.
Have you ever regretted buying it. Is there any better upcoming electric cycle worth waiting for, please suggest?
Hey Maddy . Can we import good brands like Reese and Muller , mouchtache etc ,with ease ?
Chance of being stolen is more in India.
this is your second video that I'm watching. your videos are to the point , thats the best part of it. I have a question for you , if you have to buy one ecycle today withing the price range of 20 -30k. which one will you choose, I need to buy one for daily commute to my office , I'm around 90 kilos , so please give me an option from your side if you can.
Same for me... @maddykoko please answer
same
I would've gone for Hero Lectro Glide Lady (7 Speed). I personally like step through frames to avoid groin injury, Plus it's got 7 gears for easier commute and seems like it's got removable front wheel as well (looking at the pictures here): www.choosemybicycle.com/en/woc/expert-reviews/lectro-lady-glide-review
All in all, a practical E-Bike if kept the stereotypes aside that step through frames are meant only for women. It's got good space so in future, one could modify it and attach an additional battery for extra range.
Love the way you present all details 👍
If a product doesn't sell beyond the required critical mass, there will be no spares or services , this is a given.Of course a company like Hero cannot give this excuse, given their budget and market access.
Great job, brother. You have made a very detailed video and raised genuine concerns of a customer. Even I am planning to buy an electric bicycle but not sure about the brand. There are no other dealers available in my arear other than for Hero Lectro. What brand do you suggest? I have a budget of 40k. Thanks.👍
Just superb, please keep it up mitra !
Thank you ✌🏽
Today he is laughing seeing petrol rates
Another problem is that it is easy to steal,if it's not parked securely
If u have to purchase a Electric Bike under 25k ? which one will u buy now
Not putting spares online to purchase is marketing. If spares are available, it suggest that the battery is poor quality and is required so often that it is not available online.
because it is unnecessarily expensive and the components of e bike in India gives you zero value. like you pay 50000 and get something of value 8000 only
Pakistan main Aache quality ki maal milta hai , tu vaahin se le le
which electric bicycle do you use now, please
भाई सिर्फ गियर वाली साइकिल लू या गियर+इलेक्ट्रिक ?
और rear में suspension वाली लू या without suspension ?
जवाब जरूर देना सोचकर !
(गियर वाली के लिए बजट under 20,000 इलेक्ट्रिक के लिए बजट 25,000)
very good you did a great job bro companys should watch this and improve themselvs
is it safe or ok to use in rainy days??
A bicycle is still look down by most Indian and the cost of an e bicycle is not that far off from a scooty/scooter.
I have a AWD modified e bicycle and i have spent close to Rs 62,000/- for my e bicycle and when i mention this to people, most of them prefer to go for a scooter for that price. With an exception for a few folks,Nobody really cares for the environment or fitness.
Hi I'm planning to buy hero lectro ..shall I buy gear or non gear...I'm confused...n wats the difference
If cycle battery get damage or any problem, can I replacement battery? In Hero Lectro Kinzo
Hi Bro interesting video. My usage is 18 Kms max for a day. I want to buy electric bicycle. Should I buy Hero lectro gear or non gear model. Does the gears have any impact on driving i.e. any change since on e-cycle
I have doubt can anyone clarity is the motor given electric cycle reliable in long range, will ter be any problem from as i am planning to buy a electric cycle i am afraid about the motor may stop working on the long run
Only One Reason- High cost
and in india most people have low Budget for biking
Wow excellent video and spot on analysis on why we don't buy e cycles
Should I buy an electric cycle single speed or with gear.. please suggest
I am a student in 8th
And
Still active in stoc market
And I will buy it.
And I will reshape my habits
Thanks #MaddyKoko#FatBikerVaibhav#every cycle channel..
Do upload DIY. FOR cycles
You need not take out the front wheel to take the cycle in Lift. Cycle will fit vertically ( wheelie) in the LIft.
The best thing govt can regulate is to standardise ecycles charger port and its batteries dimention, so that any charger and battery can be used irrespective of brands.
Very detailed, nice video, bdw i ordered roulik inizio yesterday, very happy to join e-bike community :)
Awesome! Enjoy your bike ✌🏽
Price pls @Vasu
@@bhargavbanda3953 i bought it for 41k
Can you suggest e bicycle or e scooter?
Which electric bike you have & what is the price of it? Which model also? I want to purchase
You are really doing best job dear. But I am worried about the traffic conditions in mumbai. Day by day the quality and sense of driving decreasing. So there is chance to get hit by big vehicles.
Kudoos sir well explained video.
Next time try to increase your talking speed.
Very detailed content Sir. Keep up.
Another pbm is reckless driving of other motorists especially two wheelers and rickshaws.
One of the main reason i didnt buy one of those is because that lectro is not placed in the right category its somewhere of a jugaad between e moto and ebike because an e bike only works on pedal assist and no throttle and meanwhile e moto works on both but still hero placed it in the e bike category so i bought a trek e bike
I think you don't have to remove front wheel. it will fit in your lift.
Gets too heavy to lift the front with the wheel on.
Tell me number of electric cycles are on roads in india??
Why all models are failing .???
Why electric cycles have become have become headache for peoplep???????
Could you please suggest a good cycle in the range of 35k with removable battery.
Good analysis. Main problem I have noticed... No proper communication from the sellers, as you mentioned in this video.
My suggestion is government has to give permission to increase its speed, without restrictions that is registration & Licence. Then only the business of E bikes may flourish. Without Government support we can't make our Earth as polution free Earth.
Thanks.
Sir
I am 17 year old so can I buy e-bike
yes ... there is no problem
Yes no license or regn as long as motor less than 250 watt.
