The HappyRun Tank G60 is another "super 73 style" moped electric bike, currently on sale for a fraction of the price of most full suspension electric mopeds. This one's got a coil mono shock that results in a feeling of being planted tot he earth compared to typical air shocks offered on cheap moped ebikes. The gumwall tires on this ebike give it a cool look in combination with the brown seat. The display is unique as well.
For the price, it ain't bad at all.

I've been asking for this review for a long time! Thank you so much! I have this bike and I personally love it.
I would of loved a bike like this in middle/high school definitely a more affordable option and if you live in a small city with no snow it would be crazy
Great looking bike for the price and I’m not even a moped style fan. Thanks again, I appreciate your reviews.
I love your videos... they are always very entertaining and the most informative on all of CZcams. Could you do a review of the Ridstar Q20?
looks just like the jansno, which i bought based on your review which is still a good purchase!
Thanks for the great work.
You're the best reviewer!!
Hey Matt, I enjoy your sense of humor! Have you thought of putting together TailhappyTV blooper's video? Bet that would be rad!
Hello, I was wondering if you could possibly review the Eahora Romeo Pro. I’m thinking of buying one.
Would you review the happyrun G100 I heard it was faster ebike if you could review it thanks
if you would do a review on the ridstar Q20 that would be so very much appreciated!?
You funny guy..😂😂😂dropping weight on part..😂😂..like your style my friend..jejejeje
I wanted to know what do u do with all of the ebikes u show on ur CZcams channel
Love that beach!
Hey @tailhappytv i have been watching so many of your video's mainly because we have similar height.. So i was wondering if you could steer me in the right direction regarding what bike you prefer when it comes to , range , speed , comfort. Some bikes are hard for me to get considering I'm from the EU , but maybe you can throw some models at me so i can do some more research . i would highly appreciate it
His review left a few things out . The seat is comparable to a brick the foam is way to dense. rear shock is cheap junk and to long that's why it points down hill. and you do notice it. Front forks are to short. However it is still a great price for what you get. Super 73 rear shock by (dnm RCP 2s 265mm shock) i then added the 350-lb spring for it fits. it drops rear down 2" and you get a real working shock .tHE RUJITSU OR BOLANY 1--1/8" front forks by 26" will give you the fork travel you need . it picks the front up 2" and helps the rake angle. also you can eliminate the speed restrictor by turning key completely off hold throttle wide open while depressing right side brake . then turn key on and hold for about 10 sec. then the throttle in peddle assist 3 will go to 31mph instead of 25. battery range is decent. i am going to have the foam replaced in my seat next. after 10 miles your butt is so sore lol. It's not a crappy bike just needs some suspension improvement and fix the seat and its awesome.I also took off the fenders and added a super 73 style fenders.
If my bike will do 31 mph when open the throttle while the kickstand is up, so no load does that mean the restriction is already off? Thanks for the great info I would love to see your bike
@@Trailtested mine said 31 leaning on the kick stand / no load as well. I am further upgrading mine to the ridiculous, new hub motor battery controller. and going to dnm volcano front forks
@@Trailtested I bought them as a cheap " try out" with ebikes, now i am hooked. Im too stubborn to sell and by another one, and the frame on the g60 is strong. so down the modification rabbit hole i go.
Sweet review! I think if it had a lower shock it would not only fix the seat problem but also the front rake. Nice video as always and TY!
Hey man, literally just moved to Santa Monica a few days ago and you're inspiring me to get an E-Bike. If you had to recommend one bike under 1500, which would it be? This looks pretty nice for the price.
Will you be reviewing the happyrun g100?
Does anyone know how to enable "zero start throttle" for HappyRun G60? I bought this bike a month ago and the throttle would not work unless the bike is already in motion. Very frustrating!
You should try the Lankeleisi X-Black Knight next!
this looks good
Hi. Can you recommend the best look for E bike. ! Please. I really enjoy all your videos. Thank you.
Lock
can you try out the ridstar q20?
Awesome channel, your reviews cover all aspects of the lastest ebikes, Thank you!
I am looking to buy a moped style while for my teen. Would recommend the HappyRun Tank G60 over the EUYBike S4?
I am trying to keep the price point as close to 1k as possible. I tried the coupon codes listed for both but neither worked.
I am open to any recommendations, I am looking for something with full suspension, a good battery and hydrologic brakes.
Thank you. I think a teen would be happy with either, probably just comes down to style preference. I’m sorry if the codes aren’t working, usually you click the link then enter coupon on the checkout page. Hope this helps!
I going with the HappyRun G60.
Did you have any issues with attaching the front tire to the folks? I read several reviews warning that there was no quick release provided and the spacers didn't fit.
@@dannyo8396 I’m having a terrible time with my front wheel. No quick release and the wheel doesn’t spin freely. I opened the pads as wide as possible and it was better but still drags.
Company now tells me to bring it to a bike shop and they will reimburse me. Very disappointed as this is my first ebike and since I’m a senior, it probably will be my last. Very bummed!
@@wayneklayman1793
Sorry to hear that. Thanks for letting me know. When I received mine in December I had to make sure the spacers for the front wheel were put on in the right sequence (via the video instructions). The bikes front folk ships with a spacer bolt to prevent the folk from bending during shipment. It is very important to use the proper front bolt, not the one that it ships with attached, but the one that comes in the parts bag, that may be causing the friction preventing the wheel from turning.
I hope everything works out quickly for you
@@dannyo8396 - thanks for your reply. I’ve double and then triple checked everything - including the temporary axle they shipped it with. After sending (un)Happy Fun a video of the problem, the company wants me to bring it to a bike shop and they will reimburse me. But still, this is very disappointing. The bike is comes mostly pre-assembled and the only thing that the customer has to install himself is the only thing I’m having trouble with - the front wheel. Aaagh! But thanks for responding, Danny…
Just to let you know the HappyRun G60 is no longer being sold on the website for now. Keep up the great work
works fo rme.. but the price is more than my 1500w (real 1500 - nat a "max 1500") aostirmotor s18 that survived all torture tests. I'd purchase just for the retro moped look, and the big rear strut.. all kinds of ways to get geometry on this one.
it's on sale now Sir
nice vid, can you by chance try the Ridstar q20, its under 1k and has hydraulic brakes
Also don't forget the $200 delivery fee plus tax for ridstar q20
@@epicrez9383 exactly, that's one of the reasons I don't want to buy it honestly..
Bikes like this which are under powered and basically useless offroad should come with street tires... Getting away from the knobby tires will help with top speed and handling quite a lot. Putting street tires on my DK200 is the best mod I made to that bike.
I did a trail ride test on my yt this thing killed it
Surfing YT E-bike videos & came across Happy Run/G-100. IF you had to shell out clams, which would you choose... Motor Goat, E-Cells Five Star or Swift Horse?...Stay Safe, Ride Safer...Aloha from Hawaii
A torque wrench is needed to be a good bike mechanic and build them up accordingly to torque specs because the metals on a bicycle are not like the metals/bolts on a car.
I really like the reviews. I see that you do list some bikes to purchase and links to them. But I feel like your channel really is missing some type of tier list. Like for example Best 26inch fat tire full suspension = Wired freedom - 10/10 kinda thing or like S tier or Rank 1 etc. Would like to see what you actually think is the best of the best in each catagory. Example Best full suspension / Best range / Best speed . Would even love to see some videos about it.
Theres 100+ E bikes to choose from and theres going to probably be another 10 or 20 new bikes each year so you making a definite best of the best of each catagory ( at the time )
review the ridstar q20
Do you still have a discount code?
Please review the PRO MODEL G60... It's supposed to be fast.
try the solterra 2 next
Everyone commenting about ridstar q20, it has $150 to $200 delivery fee, also if something was wrong with it you would have to pay fee again to send back, thats a no go for me. Different sites sell there lower model not the q20 for $1000 free shipping but not same bike
Why would you have to pay a fee to send it back if you buy it through Amazon? Just curious because that is the bike. I was thinking about purchasing even though I have two others of different models. I was looking into the ride star Q 20.
Hello ~ I wish you would have shown the front wheel installation because I’m having trouble. The rotor on the installed front wheel, barely slips in between the brake pads and the wheel is stuck and won’t spin at all. Stuck as if the brake was on. I’ve looked everywhere but can’t see anything I’ve done wrong. I’ve written the company but it’s a weekend so no help.
It’s as though the rotor is too thick? It’s got 160 E stamped right on the rotor. Is that the correct rotor? Does anyone know? I’m really upset! The brake pads are as wide open as they will go and the rotor barely fits in between the pads and thus, the wheel won’t spin at all.
What IS this?
Can ANYBODY help me? Spacers are on the right sides. What am I missing? Is the rotor too thick? No I watched dozens of videos and no one explains the front wheel installation.
HELP? ANYONE?
try and pry the brake pads open with a tool, whatever you do don't grab the brake lever and let the brake pads touch together, it might not be possible to open them back up without bleeding the hydraulic fluid if that happens.
I appreciate your reply. Wasn’t expecting that but was a nice surprise.
I have done that. The pads seem to be open as wide as the pistons will allow. But the wheel still doesn’t spin “freely.”It’s better but still isn’t “spinning” freely as I think it should - correct? It goes maybe one revolution and stops. I’m installing the wheel with the bike upside down. (That shouldn’t matter, should it?)
The company is horrible with NO phone number that works. They responded by email but they want a video and photos and I explained the problem in great detail. I’ll do it, but man!
Is it possible that the dyisland caliper needs adjusting of some kind? There are several screws on the brake unit but I haven’t a clue what they do.
Any idea what I could be missing? The
pads opened up a little more but it appears they are open as wide as they can go. And yet, the wheel still has friction slowing it down when the bike is upside down and I spin the wheel with my hands. Is the caliper out of whack perhaps? This company is
slow to respond and though not stupid, I’m not familiar with bike components. I’ve watched countless ebike videos and you seem to be the only guy with a brain in his head. Any additional opinion would be greatly appreciated, as would your time.
Regards ~
please review nireeka mega thik bike is world most powerful e bike anb 200 nm of tourq😮please try it
CHAMPION 🏆
It seems the company raised the price of the bike during this promo I do not get the same price as you did on your phone real quick as mine with the discount code is $1259. Thanks for showing that, I dont trust a company that does shady stuff like that. It screams amazon scam. I wont buy!
just get ridstar q20 costs about 800 goes 30mph and bigger 20amp battery
I paid $1134 for mine, got it 2 days ago* Does yours squeak?
@@umi.1498 The ridstar is on my short list of bikes I want, I chose a 52v Ripracer instead for $1000 I'd rather have a company that sells in America and 52v is a nice upgrade. Although I need to buy a $250 controller to unlock throttle only past 20mph but I feel much safer with that purchase than the ridstar tbh.
@@umi.1498I bought the jaison eb5 plus. It's cheap standing at 700 when I bought it. It's so good
@@umi.1498bro they charge 200 bucks for delivery
G50/32mph satisfying
Ive noticed wire locks are oerfect for my ebike mainly due to our police presence which is 1 police for every i think 500 people, of a town of 25000 people we have ither counties and state troopers always in my town. Its a small town where i can ride my ebike completely around it and jave half charge still. Its amazing not needing insurance or gas. But yeah hardly and thefts
Have, not Jave, check for typos before U hit the send button, here on YT you can edit comments
Looking for bike under $900. Good speed and torque.
Too bad it doesn’t have more power. That is one of the coolest looking Ebikes I’ve ever seen.
Champion
What about the g50
Or you could do what I did. Make a 52v 2000w ebike with a 40amph battery. 100 mile range. 45mph. Any hill/mountain.
Does it look as good as this one? I'm all for specs over asthetics but what you built doesn't do it for me if it looks like a regular mountain bike. I'm assuming that's what u put a kit on
2:45 Poor hand pump, I have a Wheel Up pump like that, it is always on board in case of flat
I'm pretty mad at you for that perfectly good pump being destroyed, sir! 😠
Some kid could have used that to pump up their tires too 20psi in an hour, then lost all the pressure because the attachment won't come off the stem. You could have taught some young rider an invaluable lesson to go buy a very affordable electric tire inflator, sometimes less than that manual pump costs! How could you! 😂
Those pumps are good in a breakdown kit when flats occur, they take 3 min to air up a 20x4 tyre, I seen them in the Wheel Up and West Biking brands
@vaughntonkin539 True. The $18 elec pump I bought is also an emergency power bank, flashlight, blower tool, etc. Such an invaluable tool!
G50 much cheaper right now, and similar stats, also looks cooler imho .
❤
Way to blow thru those stop signs. You're a hero to kids.
Bikes Class 2 and below are allowed to yield at stop signs if cars are not immediately present. I know, I know.. Class 2 is pushing the boundaries on most e bikes nowadays, but he could probably fight a ticket easily..
@@RAZORWlND I'm not worried about tickets I'm worried about kids seeing this and copying.
@@johnrob3215 Well that would be down to parents not a stranger they see online. If they are more influenced by strangers online than the parents, the parents have failed.
@daveallen63 Dave is correct. He can't be going through life worried about someone elses child. I think he has 3 or 4 children himself he already has to look after.
i think its easy to see your kids are dogs.
I got mine $800 brand new on Facebook
Now G 100
Good luck on getting parts. I've emailed the company as soon as it was a warranty. I've not got any other answers As a bike shop, this perturbs me. I don't want our shop looking bad because somebody isn't doing their job with their company. I Can't get ahold of them on Facebook There is no phone number that you can call them. And when you look up the address, it's in home, not a business.
You didn't get it from their website I'm 100% sure. You could just call them
Yeah I don't know about mag wheels made out of cheap Chinese mystery metal, when they fail it's catastrophic, there's no contest spoke wheels are so much safer and sturdier. You'll never see mag wheels on a mountain bike, it would be suicide.
I paid $989 on 3/12/24
Cool Beans ! Where did you purchase this bike at exactly ?
So basically just buy the G100. Got it.👍🏾😀
How did you know he would say that? LOL
How did u know he’d say champion?!? 😂
Mashallah ❤❤❤first
lacks low down torque that sucks
What did that cheap air pump ever do to you? 😂
Min: 0:43 destroyed the paint

Front fender doesn't fit, that's a very bad start! I pass on this one!
Oh, you can start with telling us you wheigh 200 pounds LO.L
Hitting 31 on throttle means you've disengaged the speed safety protocols which is illegal, dangerous and irresponsible.
And the Sky Is Falling.
Bet you "@johnrob3215" is still walking around like this 😷
complaining about hitting 31mph means you've disengaged being fun which is sad.
@@ebenezerwheezer2957 you 20%ers are going to ruin it for everyone
