    I’d be curious how it holds up off-road. Nice for the ride TO the trail, definitely. Will it still work for the ride home FROM the trail? Thanks for another great vid. Strongly considering one of these b/c I just don’t like the mirrors.

  • @paulhendershott667
    @paulhendershott667 Před 2 lety +1

    I got one for my Rad Rover 5 and my wife's Rad City. She's a nervous rider and I noticed she wasn't checking her mirrors because she said she didn't want to look to the sides. Now she's much more aware of her surroundings when we ride. I got my camera because my shoulders are super wide being 6'4" and 325lbs and I would still have contort myself to see around me in the mirrors, and that's with both mirrors on the handlebar ends and fully extended out.

    Yes, I was out riding yesterday, it was kind of difficult to keep turning around to see what's behind me because I don't have any rearview mirrors. That's when I thought To myself, I need a solution. After seeing your video I was convinced that I needed a rearview cam. Buying today, thank you, for the insight.

    What a coincidence! I just got my Super 73 RX delivered last night along with this same exact camera. Took it out for a test this morning and I love it. You are right though....objects appear closer than they seem....and faster. I was busy looking at the camera at an approaching car, and he zipped past me faster than I expected. Maybe I was doing what you were doing...just staring at the screen (I was probably mesmerized at the technology too), when the car came zooming and startled me, even though I knew he was coming. Too bad I bought it before I saw your vid...I would have bought it with your affiliate link. 😢

    • @CitizenCycle925
      @CitizenCycle925  Před 2 lety

      You'll have to let me know how that super 73 RX runs. I have never tried a super 73 bike but I'm sure I will someday. What other gadgets are you going to add to it?

    • @grouchydude3448
      @grouchydude3448 Před 2 lety

      @@CitizenCycle925 It runs smooth as butter with the dual shocks and it runs pretty fast at 31 mph on a straigh-away. It does lack torque on the low end, as other CZcamsrs pointed out. I have a hill near my house, and when I took my Bolton Avenger 500 watt/800-900w peak bike up the hill, I had it on the lowest gear, max throttle + maximum leg power, but it was still hard to pedal. It felt like I was wearing cement shoes and I was only going 5-6 mph. With a running start, I took my RX up the hill WITH pedalling at about 18 mph and it was a breeze. I tested it again at the bottom of the hill, no running start, no pedalling, and it couldn't make it. Torque only kicks in past 10 mph...more after 20 mph. Still, it conquered the hill that I always avoided with my Bolton bike. I think it can conquer most hills, the one caveat is that one needs a running start. Truthfully, after watching your review on the Ariel Rider, I really wanted that bike. After your video showing your shorter wife and niece mount the bike, I was excited to pre-order it, because I'm a short dude. But, I was worried about the higher seat being uncomfortable, and with Super 73 mentioning a torque update in the near future (how near can it be when it's been over a year already), I bought the RX.

    Thanks for the info. I'm gonna put one on my new ebike. It is a bit disappointing that you made the video 2 yrs ago and in the meantime, no manufacturer seems to have had the foresight to integrate an SD card system into it, to record at the same time. The hardware is already in place and an encoder chip and card slot would be simple additions - one would think.

    Have it on my wife's X52. I strapped the camera under the brake light. Works great but the screen does take up a lot of realestate on the bars. Gets crowded when adding other gadgets even with the add on extra bar. Think eventually I will get bmx bars put on both of our X52v's.

    Same as you. I don't want to have to drill holes for the mirrors. Plus I have a twist throttle. W/ Sunlite hard box. I have to lift my arm every time I want to look behind me. I live in Alaska, so I normally have my hood on which makes it hard to see what's beside me. I had no idea these existed! Happened to pop up as I was surfing online store. They only offer two one with a 130 wide angle and one with a 145. Some reason I think the 130 may be better less fisheye? If anyone knows let me know please!
