- Wondering how long the WideWheel battery will last? You cannot really trust most of the statements from the manufacturers and dealers so here is the truth about the real range...
We tested the dual motor WideWheel with 13.2Ah battery. It's a powerful scooter with a front and rear 500W (800W peak) motor and 25 mph top speed. We kept the thumb down on the throttle as much as possible (more than 80% of the ride). 185lb rider on a windy day...
Check it out and let us know what you think in the comments.
Head over to fluidfreeride.com to order your own WideWheel.
Thank u sooooo much for the first ever video giving us just a focus on distance capability ! Plus nice scenery ! Well done and much appreciated!
Idrissa Morehouse this is garb compared to the new model
XxKazxX XxxX what new model? exact name?
Thank you for doing a realistic test and giving us a realistic idea of what the battery range is.
I use to commute to my unit on an industrial park the other side of town and it would take 25 - 40 mins by car in heavy traffic! I did the same commute the other day in rush hour on the Wide Wheel and it took just over 15 mins on a cycle route much better for the soul....! big shout out to Peter # Fluid Free Rides customer service as it should be.... btw Peter I use a "Bell Local Helmet"
85kg driver, 26.5 km distance...for us in europe
second attempt what model or version do you have? whats the name
Got my widewheels yesterday..Awesome scooter..Powerful scoots 😊👊
Sooo. Do you love it or like it.. and does it put that freaky happy smile on your face..
@@tonyaguilar2151 I love it..So powerful....To be honest, the only thing that is missing here is the LCD display for the settings, Eco mode, power mode ,Cruise etc..There should be an LCD display for an easy changes on the settings and to see your speed.Maybe in 2020 model they will upgrade it . But over all i would say It's a monster Scooter 😊👍
@@gabrielfloresdrums how's the range on this thing? 😁 I know, I'm commenting on a video where it's showed.. but how far did u go with it and what speed?
gotta give him credit for saying its smooth but not as smooth as it looks... the man is being honest about the product he is selling...
Thank you for the real world review as most people would definitely drive it as fast a safely possible! Wish there was more like this.
I just ordered mine today!
GOOD LUCK ITS A PILE OF CRAP, WORST SCOOTER EVER MADE THE BRAKES,TYRES ,SUSPENSION,THROTTLE,MOTORS ARE ABSOLUTE SHIT , MINE HAS DONE 60 km it’s already completely fucked
@@pcarts232 must have gotten from bad supplier. I have had mine for over a year and still going strong. No problems. FluidFree ride
@@slickrick411 it’s the worst scooter ever, it can’t even stay on the road and the tyres are shit , the brakes are shit , it’s unrideable , Who uses a metal coil spring held together with a plastic mudguard?. MERCANE , SUSPENSION DESIGNED BY A TOTAL MORON
@@pcarts232 I don't know what to say brother, I guess you didn't order yours from fluidfree ride.
So ill try and make a video of me riding around on mine in Helsinki.. I dont want attention but this grabs it... since buying i had many Questions, Peter and Jonas at fluid* Helped me many times over..
And had the Best Customer service with them than anyone else buying online in over 20 years.. Big thanks!! Super happy the duel wide wheel is the S#17!!!
going to invest on another one for my boy!
Edit here: peter at end there you make it seem like a real effort.. its not it glides so easy.. just hot day bud.. cheers again.. :)
Thanks for sharing. A few things:
- camera doesn't really edit out the selfie stick, selfie stick is in the blind spot. The camera and software only stitch the blind spot together which makes the selfie stick invisible.
- not the only causeway in Miami, so not the only "mountain".
- Ride like people can't see you, because they can't.
C K its hard for me to fall asleep at night sometimes and i need help because i cant seem to figure out WHO asked.
Just ordered one as well, this looks great
That's a nice area. We just took our boat down there last weekend. I'm in Miami also and was looking at your scooter to use when visiting the Bahamas islands.
I Fell off of the WideWheel 1000w 13ah and nearly fractured my nose and messed up my face. Now i have a big scar, but at least i was wearing a helmet!
@shatter_TV may I ask what the circumstances were when you fell off?
That's quite underwhelming, I was hoping for more! I'm still hesitant to chuck a bit more money at the zero10 (not the X the normal one) just for the range :/ what a tough choice! Thanks for the video!
Jonathan Adami Not Sure if you already purchased or not but if you are still looking and you want something with a longer range check out the Horizon by fluid freeride. Also that does depend on your weight. If you are heavier than yeah you might want to go with the 10 X.
@@montelinm thanks mate, still haven't dished out the cash, the wife got a m365 that I use occasionally I guess it delays my decision haha
Jonathan Adami Oh yeah man if that scooter Is working out for you then you would love the horizon. Has a 10 mile longer range than the wide wheel. max speed of 23 to 25 mph. It’s basically a cruiser that has a really good range comparable to a lot of other higher end scooters. It’s also made by the same company that makes the wide wheel. But if you want a bit more power to get up to higher speeds then I’ve heard good things about the Zero 8x. Although I cannot attest to their quality But either way man these things are a blast. It’s insane how Far these scooters can go and how much fun they are.
@@montelinm what would you recommend for someone 6'1, 225 and budget of $1000. Range of 20 miles would be nice.
After 1122kms I get about 15miles per charge, full throttle most of the time (eco mode and 20% power mode)
They're good numbers 5.5 hours ride from fully charged battery.
Julz Rose is that what you got?
My order is set for delivery today Friday December 13th. Thinking the price is right over the 2020 pro version due out soon. Maybe $300 less I’m thinking. This thing has a huge potential for aftermarket add ones. Being able to unhook the built in batteries when spent to use my lipos would be HUGE! Plus front break kit. Or full hydraulic front back pre sized lines and pre bled ready to go. Hummmmm.
Motion ProMotion Now that it’s been a week since you’ve had it, how is it? What’s the range you get going full speed? Also how much you weigh etc pleasee:) have a nice day
Rob from motion promotion, logged in under my company. Had a dead front wheel but fluid free ride sent me a new one. It’s been installed and working but it was dark. More testing this weekend. The rear caliper can be upgraded to avid bb7 with front bike mount. $25 from AliExpress, Amazon only selling kits with rotors, dumb. Remember get front. On first look it has about twice the brake pad area vs small round stock pad. Look for my video soon. Working on wheel bling also!
Yep I got 17 out of mine today and went the hill of hills
Do you have the pro model? What is your height and weight?
Got mine in Australia last week - if you have hills in your area - this is the machine for you.
I absolutely love it.
In a couple of weeks, I'll start using it 3 or 4 days a week to commute to work.
One question, cruise control.
How does it work when it's on?
(I know what cruise control does)
Great video. 1 ? After you have fully charged it at what voltage it indicates when fully charged. Thanks
What is the lowest voltage you should let it go before recharging? 48v ? 46v? And what is full 58.9v?
x Stringthumper x After having ridden mine since late July... 54.6 is a full charge, i recharge on average at about 46-50V depending on the trip but I've run her dry a couple times and i was still moving with reasonable acceleration all the way down to 42V so if you have to get home on a low charge. the scooter won't draw less than 38.9 ish colts and once that's less than enough power to satisfy the motors the scooter will stop and not draw any further power. These battery packs are rated to go as low as 35V before any major damage is done so even if you absolutely have to run it dry it's not the end of the world. My recommendation is to leave it plugged in every night and then if you know you are going a good distance bring the charger and plug it in whenever you make a stop to help give you some extra distance
Also, if you want to go the farthest possible, leave the kick start on, leave it in the 15 mph "eco" mode and unplug the front motor if you have the dual motor. I have maxed my scooter out at 43 miles on a single charge (broken up across various trips but still logged) is that the farthest? i'm not sure as i could have coasted more than i was bothering to and i could have been lighter on the throttle. also could have avoided slow speed running as it's not that efficient. i think you can squeeze another 5 miles if you really needed to go the distance
Full is about 54.something.
Mine cuts out at about 37v and won't pull anymore.
@@caponwow You will use more power if you unplug front motor as rear motor has to work harder.
@@caponwow 43 miles find that hard to belive whn a 7,5ah battery doing 15mph lasts only 15 miles ????? what you speak is in correct
ABOUT 12 / 14 MILE IF LOTS OF HILLS
Thx 4 great video. Love it.❤
FYI, Insta360 and most cameras stops recording after 30 minutes.
Your GPS wasn't working some of the time so how do you know how far you've gone 🤔
the widewheel can be use with dead battery? i mean you can still kick and use it? one thing more if downhill can it turn off using freewheeling to save battery? can u also charge the battery has a 2 dots? thanks
How much do you weigh in pounds? And are these scooters ment to be unlocked to access the top speed or is that risky and puts excessive wear on the scooter? If i was unable to unlock the governor to access top speed safely i don't think this scooter would be worth the money for me.
Great video!
Amazing!
What about cutoff voltage on Widewheel?
Should wear a helmet though, especially since he's representing the company who makes this scooter.
In florida you can ride without helmet even a motorcycle we voted for that ,this is not socialist california .
@@jeronimo20242 wearing a helmet is not 'socialism'.
@@jeronimo20242 yeah nah... I don't think you do realise how you sound like. But since I'm here: Sounds like you're repeating media talking point out of context in situations where it actually doesn't fit. I'm pretty sure you feel clever doing so. Not saying you're stupid or anything I don't know you and couldn't say until we had a long chat, but you fall in the same trap as every American (or half of it) having too much internet time! Also with that very well known talking point you've chosen, we can tell which echo chamber you fell into. That's how it sounds like, I have no money in the game I live in Australia but I thought you should know ;) Also the vast majority of the world drives without a helmet... not necessarily the safest choice, I personally wear one not because I'm told but because I care of what happens to me noggin when it hits the ground!
@@vandalunamedia7150 I get the point Angel was trying to make. It should be up to every individual, to decide whether he/she, wants to wear a helmet. It should not be mandated by government.
@@lexsteel12 Government can mandate based on evidence, rationality, and popular support. Whether you think it should or not is a moot point. It already does. Do you wear a seat belt when you drive? Do you have functioning fuses in your house?
Hi, how the camera change, from facing you, back to the road and where is mounted i don't see the stick are you a magician ? pls help. thanks .
360 degree camera - Insta360 ONE X :)
he did see you he just doesn't want you to past him first :D which makes him a douchbag :D
Please do a test with the front motor cord pulled out so its single mode
:) we will do a test on the single motor soon. Pulling the cord out however is not recommended as the disconnected front motor will slow you down...
@@fluidfreeride Thanks. Just a thought. But hold on drag even without regen' ?
Can you comment on what needs to be done in terms of maintenance for this baby? I use mine, dual motors bought from fluidfreeride, almost everyday for 2 months now. 🙏
maintenance video is planned. mainly tighten the screws under the folding knob and the kick stand. maintain the disc brake like any bike disc brake... that's pretty much it :)
@@fluidfreeride🔭 I weigh 270 will this scooter work 4 me......if no.....why🔭
john moore it is rated for 220lb max. From customer comments I think this is a conservative estimate since power wise the scooter can handle much more. We know a few customers around the 250 mark who really enjoy the widewheel. Key potential risk is bottoming out on the suspension and/or too much pressure on materials leading to breakage especially if you are over the weight limit and take the scooter into rougher terrain...
@@fluidfreeride♦ THANK U 4 YOUR RESPONSE.......VERY DISAPPOINTED......SEEMS LIKE A GREAT PRODUCT......THERE R LESS EXPENSIVE SCOOTERS ON THE MARKET THAT CAN ACCEPT 270+POUNDS.......I'LL HAVE 2 LOOK 4 OTHER OPTIONS....THANK U ♦
@@johnmoore8721 I would be careful believing all of those weight parameters. One look at some of the sub 1000 scooters rate at 300 pounds suggests they do not really hold that much
Does anybody know if it’s okay for me to charge my wide wheel overnight? like can it overcharge or does it automatically stop charging when fully charged? (PLEASE HELP)
It wont overcharge, it has an onboard BMS that will regulate the voltage.
Is this scooter still speed restricted?
You can remove the 25kmh restriction yourself. :)
Are you from Germany?????
Sieht das aus wie Deutschland?
@@warzone3 schonmal was von auswandern gehört? Müsstest du, so wie du aussiehst!
If you put the specs of a battery in the description at least do it right! 13.2Ah does not describe anything WITHOUT the battery rated voltage. 90% of reviewers that present batteries of various electric gizmos do not pay attention to this detail. 13A @20Volts is not the same with 13A @60Volts. Multiply these 2 to get TOTAL electrical POWER. (P = U*I*t) and is measured in Watts.
If you watched the video he showed voltage
The max speed 23mph Is that after unlock speed limit or just normal speed mode? Cause my single motor can do only 19mph after unlock the limit. Thanks.
The video is with unlocked speed. It sometimes showed a little more than 23 mph...
24.2 mph (39 km/h) the max speed I got with this Electric Scooter (unlocked). The tested range with full power (red-white-white) and unlocked speed is somewhere at 18.6 miles (30 km) after 3 recharges. In eco mode (red-white) the max speed is 15.5 mph (25 km/h) and the range is 22-24 miles (35-40 km). 198lb (90 kg) load.
I’m 210lbs...my Widewheel has a 1000w power and it almost hit the 25mph on flat road.
I can't believe the irresponsibility of these utubers who ride their PEVs without any regard to personal safety i.e. no protective clothing whatsoever.
Were I an impressionable teenager, I would immediately reckon "if it's all right for him, then it's all right for me". Luckily I'm an old fart and know better from bitter experience.
How many hours last?
@04:33 is that french?
The rear mudguard is BS. If the road is wet your pants in the back will be wet and dirty also. I need to glue there a rubber extension. ;-)
Do the breaks work when it runs out of batter?
Yes, its very dangerous. After the "breaks" stop working the jet engine turns on and it flies out in space. You have to jump off before it leaves the atmosphere or you will die.
You are redeemed
FLAT YOU EASY GOT MORE THAN 33 mile ;) keep second gear don't go 3rd ;) full power and hills suck life out battery big time
Nice vid bud. I add my voice to those that advise you to stick your lid on. Especially on a long and often fast run.
So do you love it or like it?🤔
absolutely love it :)
Wear a bowler hat. For safety innit. 👍
Was this with speed limit on or off? And also when you battery was running out of juice, it just starts to slow down more and more but it doesn’t cut out like mine does. Is that because mine is 2019 version or ... ? Finally when riding over some bumps is it normal that it cuts power a little when going over or is that just mine?
It was with speed limit off - speed limit on will only get you to 15mph.
your scooter cuts out cause your battery is faulty. As talked, your new scooter is already on its way.
when riding over small bumps, it feels like the power cuts out but what actually happens is that the wheels spin just a tiny bit as they loose traction for a fraction of a second...
Does the 2019 model go farther?
it has the same battery. you will be able to go farther if you weigh less or you go lower speeds...
Alot more farther
Not far enough
I’m thinking about getting one but I’m worried about the front light and not having a speedometer. Do you guys plan on adding any mods for those two features?
we already have a detachable headlight that will take care of the lighting issue on dark night rides... speedometer is more tricky - some customers use a smartphone mount and an app...
You can also use a Garmin wireless bike computer as well.
The front light is good enough * "GPS Speedometer and Odometer" is very good - play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coolniks.niksgps
Hey i just checked to see how much it costs to send to New Zealand. Shipping is $200 is that normal because it sounds excessive, this also doesnt include customs fees etc? Any help would be much appreciated.
Hey Chevy - unfortunately we cannot ship to New Zealand at the moment - we are working on it...
get from ali mayber, they should be able to deliver - if you can't wait.
HELMET !!!
4:28 pretty sure he does. But they dont care. xd
Where's your helmet?
Very good point I’m using a "Bell local" excellent helmet
He should wear a helmet because I fell off of one of those with a helmet and i almost fractured my nose and hurt me self badly
Kay Jay who gives a fuck
@@serbiseedafos4272
Lol
Is that what you really thought about watching this!!
No helmet? No like.
Biggest pile of shit ever , I’m throwing mine in the skip , brakes are shit tyres shit
hi there - sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the Widewheel. If you have not done so, please contact us via email (support@fluidfreeride.com) with your order number so we can assist you with the brake issues. Thanks
@@fluidfreeride hey 👋🏾 it’s not your fault dude , you didn’t make the scooter, I bought it from VIPER SCOOTERS IN HOUNSLOW LONDON AND THEY HAVE REFUSED TO HELP EVEN THOUGH ITS A NEW SCOOTER.Can I ask your opinion.. What the hell is the tapping noise from the rear wheel,? It sounds like a Helicopter 🚁 🥺🥺🥺
Wear an effing helmet! I won't watch any more of your reviews until you do. Not wearing a helmet is simply encourages recklessness and danger.
yah , get a helmet on next time
An absolutely terrible example of how not to ride an electric scooter ! Not the best way to represent a brand.........
