Just bought mine a month ago and love it. I bought the yellow which came in a more gold shine that matches closer to the shocks. Going to upgrade the handlebars soon and add some storage on the back. Super fun but gotta ride carefully.
I bought a used Grizzly V2 back in April and almost immediately blew the rear controller, which I purchased from Ariel Ryder for around $400. That's just the risk of buying a used electric vehicle with over 1000 miles on it. However, it was well worth it because this baby is a battle tank on these rough and highly unfriendly NYC roadways. I'm about to transform it into a completely new bike over the winter and have it back on the road by Spring 2024.
I have one also, I'm happy with mine the way it is. But a lot of people want these bikes to be motorcycles, by going to more powerful controllers like the far drivers, and Sabvatrons 72 volt 150-200 amps which is crazy to me. Good luck!!
Glad you finally got a V3 Grizzly. I also have the same. Set the wheel diameter to 22" and the speedometer will match the GPS app. I also have a Wired Freedom E-bike. The Grizzly has more torque with both motors turned on. Thanks for the review. I think the Grizzly will take the throne away from your Citizen E-bike.
Great vid. I personally love the handlebars. Very distinctive and gives one more bar to work with for mounting things it looks like. I'm eyeing the Ariel Grizzly for future purchase.
Youre so fortunate to have this ebike. Congratulations!!! How are the local yocals with you riding this powerful of an Ebike? Definitely would be better with street tires. I have always liked your vids. You are a Rock Star!!!
Looks like a fun bike. Went through the tires pretty fast though. My Philodo H8 AWD I still have the original front tire at almost 6000 miles. Rear has 3500, had to change because it had a staple and I could not find a pc of it, so it kept going flat. Anyway, I love the all wheel drive. Thanks for the video 😀
I may look into changing the handlebars but bmx bars would end up being shorter. I probably have to get a stem rise also and I'm not sure how that would look.
You may find those handlebars are steel bars just to get an extra pound or two over the front wheel to stop it spinning as much off the line. I’d check before you dump them. If you put a set of light BMX bars on it you might be spinning even more?? Just a thought..
Grizzly looks to have great acceleration, will be interesting to see the upcoming drag races. I googled “Ariel Rider Problems,” and was stunned to see over four pages of complaints with the BBB after only four years in business. It is safe to say that Ariel Ridder has the worst customer service and track record in the industry. Wouldn’t risk buying ANY Ariel Rider product until they clean up their act and stop treating their customers like crap.
My Ariel Rider Kepler has been nothing but problems. Love the by when it works, but too many major issues to recommend. If you get one that doesn't have issues then it's a great price and a great value.
@@jamesreardon4898Me too, 2 years , (NO PROBLEMS)!! I think when people only use them on top speeds all the time is when you set yourself up for failure. Parts get very hot when used that way. These are not motorcycles!!
the reflectors are to counterbalance the weel from the valve stem if you take it off its going to bounce like crazy, put 30 psi in the tires and you will hit 37.8 mph.
Love my grizzly. Go into the computer and set the tire size to 22 and you’ll get a more accurate reading. You can also set the speed limit in there and make the PAS have 9 levels. Makes it much more useful.
I have a rad city 3 e bike that I have 4300 miles on. It is 2 years old. I use it almost every day during the summer commuting to save on gas. The build quality is very good. I have been studying the Ariel and I like that you have extended range and speed but it looks impractical as a bike since it appears you cannot adjust the seat height for optimal pedal position. My rad city has a max range of 40 miles at a max speed of 24 mph. But depending on conditions headwinds I get about 30 miles at 20 mph. Pls advise on the bicycle option because I use the e bike as a work out machine and not as an electrified scooter. Thanks
@@sbukosky I have the same model. I never saw them as ugly. I like the decals and everything but that aside, I feel similarly when it comes to what it provides me. Someone who doesn’t want to need to mount multiple items beyond the standard handlebars’ surface area won’t get the added benefit of this odd ladder design. (Hmm. I wonder if the design is stronger.) So, I understand focusing on that more in those cases (or any case, if it’s your money and not mine) but I’d love to put my goodies on that sucker in its stock configuration. Lastly, I thought it didn’t fold. Then the unboxing showed the tired next to each other and I was about to be blown away…until I saw they were there because one needed to be attached. 😆 I went on a whole rollercoaster ride by myself.
From this side of the screen it definitely looks and sounds like it pulls harder than the Fabulous bikes, not so sure about the citizen bike though… I wish you had more seat adjustment on this moped style bike, they look awesome but I don’t know that I would be comfy on longer rides.
36 mph is where the motors meet their natural loaded RPM for the voltage. 36mph is very healthy, but if you do need to go faster you need controllers with field weakening, or go to higher voltage batteries which will be expensive and not as good looking. I'd be fine with it stock, but that throttle delay would drive me nuts! It will be interesting to see if the Citizen Cycle can beat it. I could beat a first gen Grizzly with a RadMini, but the gen 3 is probably quicker off the line.
The throttle delay is definitely not my favorite. And I don't think it's gonna be able to take out Citizen Bike. This bike is definitely powerful. But I thought it would have more juice...
You could get a Engwie M20 Pro with 2 batteries and upgrade the controller and add a front motor yourself.... But yeah I agree, because of our stupid ebike laws we get junk oh and Brexit
Can you do a video on how to choose a seat for your electric bike? I have tried 3 so far and just not happy with any of them. The cloud 9 is slightly better than the stock one, but it just dosnt work for me. I know everyone is different, and thats what I want to know. There has to be some sort of measurements to decide. Dont want to keep buying seat after seat, hoping there is some sort of guide to help narrow it down.
Im telling you My Kepler has been stout, and I can do 35 all day long. tail wind I can definetly hit 38-41 thats no exacuration thank you for the reviews love em, is the x class as fast as the grizzly or as quick? I live in FL all flat ground. thanks citizen
@@En4cer2K9 that's true and the big aftermarket one costs couple grand. But the piece of mind you get when you can hop on road and keep up with traffic is worth it.
@@En4cer2K9 also the wired ebikes freedom bike can do actual 40 mph with long range for 2 grand. Ebike prices are dropping because there are so many different brands now that are pretty good for cheap so the Grizzly is slightly overpriced brand new compared to others.
🐍 Make sure you choose a worthy hill to do your Citizen Cycle AWD challenge and stand on the pedals with your CHEST OVER THE FRONT of your handlebars to tame the front tire spin. 🖖🤙
Bought a brand new Ariel grizzly. Both batteries give out at the same time would Not take a charge . By the time I went thru all the crap Ariel wanted me to do it wasn't worth the price or trouble to send them back. Very disappointing
Needs new tires after 600 miles? lol it's from everyone giving it full throttle all the time and peeling out. They should last a lot longer than that 😄
@@jdgoesham5381Yes they not design for road reason they wore out fast. For pavement you need a tpi60 rated road tires that grip the road better and better performance. Pretty much the Innova hybrid, or Chaoyang Arisun tires are good for pavement and light. I put 2500 miles on a set and no flats with no flatout. $140 bucks in states, or $98 from china typically if you can wait.
I get it the other way. I was shamed in your comments several months ago because I pedal. I was told "nobody buys an E-bike to pedal." I'm recovering from 3 strokes and spent several years barely able to walk. My e-bike gave me my legs back. You try pedal up a hill with one leg. lol People are ignorant trolls, ignore them.
When my less than reliable Grizz V2 rear motor went dead. carefully I used the front motor to get home. Then I entered the world of Customer service .........................not here right now. Iced the machine. In So, Cali but lets talk. I would have many 'donor" parts. Grizz on ICE
i guess it depends on what you mean by superior, there are certainly faster full suspension bikes out there that are way cheaper. the grizzly is a great bike though.
🐍 Grizzly tires stand tall out of the box and give the best top speed for the first 50 miles or so, then the nubs wear down and the sidewalls soften and lower the tire profiles. E-Huntsman tires from VeeTire restore the taller tire stance & give you back a 2-3 mph increase.😉👍
I haven't heard Huntsman's giving you more mph. It might be able to maintain the mph but the acceleration and torque will be affected because of how much heavier and higher density they are compared to the stocks.
@anacondahugs808 It's physics and momentum. I have Huntsmans and they're heavier with more density than any stock tire out there so it will affect acceleration for all bikes but it's a sacrifice that many are still willing to take but should be noted.
The Huntsman you lose 2 to 3 MPH not gain. They are heavy. He better off getting something like TPI 60 rated tires. Get pavement grade tire that are less aggressive and much lighter then you gain performance instead of losing. I don’t personally like Vee tires as used them and they don’t bead correctly and don’t hold up as well. My personal favorite are the Innova Hybrid, or Arisun, they about $140 in the states, or China $98 for the set of your willing to wait. They grip good the road, quiet and last set had about 2500 miles on it and not a single flat and didn’t use fix a flat at all. They are good tires. So bought a new set for new bike. One drawback is not good if you off-road a lot, then you need aggressive thread tires at that point.
My v 2 grizz controllers blew up then caught on fire between my legs with just 10 months/700 miles on the warranty and Ariel wont pay for shop labor to fix it. Parts only. Bad business for Xi-Nese garbage. Anybody want it?
Ariel rider WILL NOT sell parts to non original purchasers. I dm'd them months ago about this. They gave a weird answer stating something about stolen bikes. This is the problem I had with ebike companies months ago. No parts sold to people with second hand bikes. They all talk the big talk about saving the environment but cause a lot of waste. There ain't nothing being saved...only created. Something MUST be done about this problem. All the reviewers on CZcams never have a discussion about this growing problem, none of them. I guess I'm part of this problem. If no one else speaks up what will be done? I like my ebike but afraid to what may come after 1 year. This is why I think ebikes are still a niche market. They are still for people that tinker and know how to Frankenstein an ebike together with aftermarket parts. I'm afraid to recommend ANY ebike to anyone who asks.
interesting... i have not heard that about Ariel. I bought my grizzly on facebook marketplace second hand so I guess they wont sell me anything for it, that seems odd, why wouldn't they want to keep their bikes running... Nothing has broken on my yet, but i'm that guy who will just tinker and fix myself. I have never heard of a company saying this. i'm very surprised.
Been there, done that, modded it, gifted it. I gift everything though, thats the way I like to roll. If I didnt, Id be hoarding while others go without.
My wife had a 50cc Yamaha Zuma scooter. It had a top speed of 35 mph on the flat but struggled to go 20 mph up a moderately steep hill. So I pretty much know what it's like to ride a Grizzly. Total dog. She got rid of it because it was much too slow to keep up with traffic around town and got a 250 cc Vespa with a top speed of over 60 mph. That had no trouble keeping up with traffic.
🐍 The Grizzly has only 30A controllers. Don't go off bragging about your Citizen Cycle ebike beating "equal" ebikes when your controllers are much larger.🖖🤙
@CitizenCycle925 🐍Yup, if you're gonna reach into your own pockets for modifications... Buy the BEST components. I bought (2) 750w Grizzlies during the peak of the pandemic on pre-order. Due to parts shortages & 9months delivery delays, AR gave us free upgrades to the 1000w/1850w peak motors & 2 chargers for the modified battery set up. AR also gave us merch credits and rebates on our credit cards lowering my costs to $2449 for each Grizzly. Did your yellow/gold V3 Grizzly cost less than mine❓️ 🖖🤙
Thanks again for test drive awesome as always !!!!
Just bought mine a month ago and love it. I bought the yellow which came in a more gold shine that matches closer to the shocks. Going to upgrade the handlebars soon and add some storage on the back. Super fun but gotta ride carefully.
If you start in RWD then switch to AWD after you are going, your front tire will last a lot longer.

I would definitely put BMX style handlebars. I don't like that ladder type. Nice bike. Thanks for sharing.
I have one and I agree, but they are really catered to the tall rider for less bending over. But this is a great, and powerful bike.
Great video. Change the wheel size setting in display to 22" and it should be close to accurate.

I just bought a red one just shipped, I have a Specialized Vado carbon it might be for sale.
Good to see you push it to its full potential 👌🏼. Gives a much better idea of its performance.
I think that bike might have a limiter on the top speed?
WooooHoooo. I need to come visit Camp Citizen! LOL
Yes, Definitely think you would enjoy this one
What a beast of a bike. Little out of my price range though.
Congratulations! I wanted to buy one too, but I think I’m too short. I’m 5’4. Can you show your wife trying to ride it?
Are these 52v batteries? 1.8kw should give a decent range even at a fast speed.
Yes!
you know we need to see the Head to Head Vs citizencycle race
The Grizzly will faster off the line the Citizen will be faster in the long run because of the larger wheel diameter
The pull is stronger because of the 20” wheels

This is the problem I had with ebike companies months ago. No parts sold to people with second hand bikes. They all talk the big talk about saving the environment but cause a lot of waste. There ain't nothing being saved...only created. Something MUST be done about this problem. All the reviewers on CZcams never have a discussion about this growing problem, none of them. I guess I'm part of this problem. If no one else speaks up what will be done? I like my ebike but afraid to what may come after 1 year. This is why I think ebikes are still a niche market. They are still for people that tinker and know how to Frankenstein an ebike together with aftermarket parts. I'm afraid to recommend ANY ebike to anyone who asks.
interesting... i have not heard that about Ariel. I bought my grizzly on facebook marketplace second hand so I guess they wont sell me anything for it, that seems odd, why wouldn't they want to keep their bikes running... Nothing has broken on my yet, but i'm that guy who will just tinker and fix myself. I have never heard of a company saying this. i'm very surprised.
Omg to funny😊
Need a 40amp controller and you’ll be golden
Yes, I feel like there's a lot of untapped potential with this bike.
I think the grizzly has 25 amp controllers.
30 amp
@@Vicki-gz3vt definitely, I think first run and maybe the second had 25s, then they upgraded.
I sell headlight for grizzly plug n play with halo , low beam, high beam if you interested let me know
Thanks
The LED headlight on this bike's actually pretty nice. I might put some yellow film over it though. What's your website I'll check out your light.
@@CitizenCycle925 my headlight is very bright compared to the original headlight plus halo switch option for halo ,low beam, high beam
Been there, done that, modded it, gifted it. I gift everything though, thats the way I like to roll. If I didnt, Id be hoarding while others go without.
Lucky you live in a nice light area. Too much darkness in mine, that bike would be gone within a day if i parked anywhere outside.
Not really made for us over 6 feet tall
My wife had a 50cc Yamaha Zuma scooter. It had a top speed of 35 mph on the flat but struggled to go 20 mph up a moderately steep hill. So I pretty much know what it's like to ride a Grizzly. Total dog. She got rid of it because it was much too slow to keep up with traffic around town and got a 250 cc Vespa with a top speed of over 60 mph. That had no trouble keeping up with traffic.
🐍 The Grizzly has only 30A controllers. Don't go off bragging about your Citizen Cycle ebike beating "equal" ebikes when your controllers are much larger.🖖🤙
That is precisely why I brag about the citizen bike, it's built stronger than the rest.
@CitizenCycle925 🐍Yup, if you're gonna reach into your own pockets for modifications... Buy the BEST components. I bought (2) 750w Grizzlies during the peak of the pandemic on pre-order. Due to parts shortages & 9months delivery delays, AR gave us free upgrades to the 1000w/1850w peak motors & 2 chargers for the modified battery set up. AR also gave us merch credits and rebates on our credit cards lowering my costs to $2449 for each Grizzly. Did your yellow/gold V3 Grizzly cost less than mine❓️
🖖🤙
Just not fast enough 4 me
That is one ugly bike.
How much did you pay?
