#ARIEL RIDER X CLASS 52V FOR SALE FULL#

The 52v is full of power and speed which limits where you can ride it.Ideally, turn signals and mirrors would come with it, but I would still rate this bike’s visibility safety as above average, especially considering the price.Ĭons – things that seem like trade-offs or negatives: The reflective striping on the tire sidewalls provides good visibility as well. Considering the achievable speeds, the integrated lights with brake light activation are a nice safety feature.Rear mounted steel pegs for a passenger come standard, as do additional mounting points for platforms, a two-person banana seat or other accessories. The 52v has a 300-pound payload capacity for carrying cargo or a passenger. If taller riders like a more aggressive stance this might be a great option. It’s worth noting that the stem is adjustable.

This bike feels ideally suited for riders of average stature since it comes in one size.

The value in this zippy moped-inspired bike can be found in upgraded components like the Altus derailleur and hydraulic brakes.

Ariel Rider’s website lists the 52v at $2,099 – considering the power it provides, this is a good deal.

The 52v also uses an SiS Index thumb shifter which is easy to shift even with heavy gloves, and has Tektro hydraulic brakes with motor inhibitors – which is a nice safety feature so you’re never fighting the motor.

The Shimano Altus derailleur is a step up in quality from the base Shimano Tourney.

You can also use the multiple usb ports to charge your phone or power additional lights. It’s positioned low and center, which is good for the bike’s center of gravity, and since it’s removable you can store it indoors and away from extreme heat or cold. The range on the 936 watt-hour removable battery is solid. The 1,000-watt motor with 2,000-watt peak churns out a huge 110 Nm of torque and reaches speeds over 30mph using the variable thumb throttle alone. Rear hub motor placement in the rear hub means it won’t cause wear and tear for the standard drivetrain.

The 52v is a powerful bike built for speed.

Sometimes short reviews and those created by shops only cover the good aspects and can come off like a commercial, so I've tried to be neutral and objective with these insights: I hope providing several sources, with varying perspectives, allows everyone to come to their own conclusions.
