Vitilani7 Pro Spring Campus Ride

Here’s a ride video from this spring, took my Vitilan i7 Pro up to the university and rode around campus. I don’t like reviews where someone just goes through the specs. It’s good ti know the specs, but what I really want to know is how it performs. And not just hopping on an ebike and taking it for a spin, but how does it perform over time and in different situations.

That’s why I make these ride videos, so people can see the machine in the situation. What’s it really like to ride? How does it respond to different conditions? How do people react to it? You can’t know these things without putting in some miles.

I was able to switch out the thumb throttle for a half-twist throttle and it makes the riding experience much more enjoyable. It is easier to control the speed at slow speeds and accelerates smoother. I also replaced the lower shock with a air shock and that has greatly improved the ride as well. It gives a softer feeling, feels like it should, rather than how it did.

My kickstand broke off and I contacted Vitilan. They tried to get me to take a plastic clamp-on kickstand to fix it, but that didn’t sound fair after I just bought the bike a short time ago. I held out and they send me a new swingarm, but they won’t pay for the repair. So I have to find time to switch it out. Ugh.

I’ve been working on my audio/video setup and I’ve made some improvements. They don’t start for a few videos, but it has taken some time to find a good setup and get comfortable with it. More coming.

Also, I’ve made a recent purchase of an amazing mobility scooter, the Afikim S4, more to come on that.

I ride every day, rain or shine. Sharing my experiences with other mobility users.
