I would love to see someone try taking that up to 100mph.
‘When is that curry getting here?’
**deliveroo guy launches through your living room window like a missile and straight out through the patio door**
I very much doubt the coppers have ridden this thing at over 100 mph and all they’ve done is lifted the back wheel of the floor, given it a bunch of throttle, and read the speedo.
By that methodology my family estate car can do 210 mph! (Because I know it does 70 mph at 2,000 rpm and can rev to 6,000 rpm).
If you went past 60 (if that) on those tires they would fall apart.
“The rider was caught once the battery ran out after 48 metres of travel”
100mph makes for a good headline, but the real issue isn’t the fact the bike can go that fast (it almost definitely can’t, this test is done measuring wheel speed off the ground), the issue is that the motor does not cut off at the required speed. From the article :
“A North Yorkshire Police spokesperson said the legal limit for an electric bike was 15.5mph (25km/h) and “the motor must always cut out and be pedal assisted, something this didn’t do”.”
The Police have a rolling road machine. Put the back wheel on it, lock the bike on, rev it up and it’ll tell you what speed it’s doing. No need to ride it.
Nearly crashed into one of these idiots on an illegal ebike last night as he came wizzing round the corner through a red light doing double the speed limit.
No helmet, no lights, dressed in black, completely silent.
Jesus Christ! At that speed you wouldn’t be able to keep your eyes open unless you wear goggles.
Got to admit though, I bet it would be a massive rush.
No, no, let them get to 100mph, I want to see the outcome of hitting a moderately sized stone
Coming to a pavement at school drop off time near you soon 🙄
I live in york, a young mother (of 3) at my son’s school has been dealing with her middle son 6 year old in a cast from the waist down. It’s been a nightmare for her. He was on his balance bike on his way home from school when he was knocked over by a 35 year old man on one of these e bikes on the path, broke the boys femur. The man lives on there street (father of 9 kids). Police came round and checked the e bike out and said it was legit. And that’s it! Nothing else has happened. I keep asking her about it at school pickup, her eldest boy is the same age as my son 8. It make me so angry
We can’t have people buying affordable transportation now can we.
Your standard reminder that it’s not an electric bike, it’s an unregistered e-scooter.
I have that bike, I’d be fucking terrified of going 30mph on it let alone 60+
Lmao there’s no way that shit box is hitting anywhere near 100, even downhill
I’m sure those sort of forces are exactly what the engineer had in mind when designing the bike
