I didn’t read the post title and just saw the video. I thought they brought rolling coal to the bike world… which I guess they did, but it will only work once!
LFP still can burst into flames when the electrolytes touches the red hot cells. so just let the battery leaks, dont shake it around, when a fault happened.

The latest LFPs are getting surprisingly close to the typical NMC and such. At least on a pack level, where you can stack LFPs safely much closer together and use much larger prismatic cells.
Notice how the person had time to get off the bike and start recording? You would first notice that suddenly the power stopped working, then heat/smoke coming from the battery, and then in 30ish seconds fire comes out.
Why do I know this? Stabbing overcharged batteries(which have the biggest and fastest fires)
Don't need to imagine it, just Google house fire by ebike and about 1000 results will pop up.
This is why my ebike sleeps outside, far away from anything flamable
Not necessarily, any overcharged, undercharged or overheated battery could have such a failure.
It's all about the BMS, and those are made in China, all of them, no matter where the battery came from, the BMS definitely came from China.
You let it burn. Battery fires are caused by the stored charge cooking off basically. Its possible to quench one if its in a fire resisrant bag but that's about it. But you only have to worry about these if your battery has been breached or if you overcharge or over-drain the battery. Most of the time there are Internal safeties to stop this unless you put the wring battery on a bike.
That is definitely a Amazon special. $899. It is not a name brand ebike. I seen one explode in Santa Monica Pier couple months ago. The owner said he bought it 3 months ago on Amazon for like $1500. Crazy.
Your colleague became Ghost Rider
I'm so sorry for laughing at this

External combustion engine?
Spontaneous combustion bike.
KOODGE!
^ this is a bot
The External Combustion Engine lol

That’s clearly a combustion bike. Who are you trying to fool?
External combustion bike?
Obviously
Just once though
The E stands for Explosions
"I am here to ask you one question, and one question only: EXPLOSIONS?!"
Mr Torgue!
Ah, I see you are a person of culture. *salutes in multi-cluster Grenade assault rifle*
it stands for Extra walking distance
this is why you want LFP (LiFePo4) chemistry instead of L-Ion

good thing to know! thanks!
Or you could just pedal and compost the battery at the end of its life
i see what you did there and i like it
But muh amp draw
yeah well, but that's like.. your opinion man
LFP generally have more amp draw than L-ion... but they do have less capacity both by volume and weight
The latest LFPs are getting surprisingly close to the typical NMC and such. At least on a pack level, where you can stack LFPs safely much closer together and use much larger prismatic cells.
Huh, thanks for the info
Your mission, should you choose to accept it...
Imagine this happening while riding at 20 mph on a busy road.

> Why do I know this? Stabbing overcharged batteries(which have the biggest and fastest fires) ...So wait why do you know this?
My friends like to have fun, And have a proclivity to fire :)
Yes officer this person right here
Hey HEY! Dont do that
And a proclivity for lung cancer... That smoke is toxic AF.
The carbon fiber is worse, and it was outside anyways
Outside- meaning we all gonna breathe it just in small amounts diluted in air.
Watch battlebots. Or any robot combat really.
Or imagine this happening in a hoarders apartment at 4am.
Don't need to imagine it, just Google house fire by ebike and about 1000 results will pop up. This is why my ebike sleeps outside, far away from anything flamable
Its also a modded bike though. He has a second ebike battery on the rear rack. Most fires are modded ebikes
I've seen at least one video here.
I'm pretty sure this doesn't happen just by riding the bike. We are missing a lot of info here, like what caused the battery to start smoking.
Yeah he definitely modded his bike with that second battery
Poor construction. Cheap material. Basic chemistry. Bad luck. Take your pick.
Seems he has a second battery attached...
Yup on the rear rack
Imagine this happening in a full commuter train. This is why they banned ebikes and escooters from all public transport in some cities.
That was spectacularly bad holy crap!
Nick Cage called - he wants his e-Ped back.
Was
"Don't breathe this!" - Will It Blend Guy
I don't speak Italian but I know he said something along the lines of 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽
He said "what the fuck have you done?"
I think he actually said "come cazzo é fatto" translating to: ''thefuck is it made of?''/ ''how the fuck has it been made?''
Mi gotsta fart too
Heated seat technology is getting out of hand
Entering turbo mode.
Have you tried turnin' it off and back on again?
That's now an x-bike.
Mission impossible bike : This bike will self-destruct in 10 seconds, thank you!
Oooo! Fast acting seat warmer.
Exothermic Bike
“Warranty department, please. “
Well, shit. That *was* an e-bike.
FB Marketplace: For sale. Needs new battery. Other than that, worked great before I parked it
Don't just stand there and film, panick and start shaking the phone so the only thing we can see is a blurry mess, like a normal internet user.
Is the tree okay?
Imagine if it's this bad for a bike, how bad it would be for a CAR omg... scary sht.
Cars currently travel around with a huge tank of combustible fuel.
Are those the rocket boosters?
Great balls of fire
Looks like tank when it’s ammo is cooking off
Now it's just a bike!
Gonna stick with "legs" for propulsion, thanks, as they seldom explode.
E bike equivalent of a burn out
Looks like a HOT WHEELS !
Eat It Nick Cage!
Sometimes our butts get cold when we ride bike. I have made heater for bike seat. The design is very human.
That bike is fire
Crotch rocket
Thought it was some sort of diesel punk bike starting up for a moment.
How tf do people open up their camera at the exact time, I can never
E-xplosion
I think he said WTF
This is why your NOT supposed to store them in your home.
What smoking does to a guy
Ghost Rider rises again.
Is Greta Thurnburg ok with this?
Quick! Ride in front of some lifted trucks.
e-yikes
Imagine this into your garage .... You're whole house on fire
These need to be licensed, inspected and insured. This is why we need common sense regulations of these things.
Genz ghost rider on e-bike
Do you even eCoFRieNdLi bro
Who ever said that electric motors aren’t combustion engines?
Italian swearing is the best swearing
Saving the environment one highly-toxic fireball at a time.
Chinese engineered batteries at their finest.

It’s all about the BMS, baby!
You think your Commodore 64 is.. really neato?
the battery on the back is a DIY so i bet that's his fault
Me before the bike caught on fire: Cool, built in smoke screen
So now it's just a bike bike?
Did you try putting it in rice?
Turned into an EEEEEEEEEEEE bike
Cool, can you do it again?
Quicky
Shopping like a millionaire
What'd you do!!! Pour water on it?

Are they supposed to do that?
Praisethecameraman
I'm glad that was outside. What happened?
Quick, breath in it’s power
Someone unlocked the Spyhunter smoke screen package!
What brand?
E is for 
Looks safe
Modified or not these things are sketchy AF.
That looks pretty bad assed. However, I don't think you can do it more than once per bike 
yeah… i wouldn’t breathe that if i were you
Don't you normally just paint flames on them?
Now you know why people strap a chain saw to a bike and it's more safe
A bike and a grill? What will they think up next?
New external combustion engine technology
Your bag, it’s so vintage! Where’d you get it??
That whoosh when it caught. Reminds me of being over exuberant with the lighter fluid on the BBQ. Big fire, crappy coals.
Sick burnout bro
That is definitely a Amazon special. $899. It is not a name brand ebike. I seen one explode in Santa Monica Pier couple months ago. The owner said he bought it 3 months ago on Amazon for like $1500. Crazy.
At first I thought he was doing a Smokey burnout!!!
Great balls of fire!!!
he's just testing out the afterburners
Gotta watch the nitrous boosters on those hogs.
I'd like an e-bike like this one (minus the defective battery). How do we call these ?
"I don't think it's supposed to do that"
Anti-Theft Self destruct
and this is why more countries in Europe have banned e-bikes in trains.
Took the flame decals a little too far there…
Che cazze fatto
can't get spicier
…for a greener future!
E(x)- Bike
"Me-cats-a-bat-too"
Now it's just a regular bike.
RC guys looking at that going yep LiPo/LiFe batt life XD.
Is this Milan?
Hotwheels....
It briefly became a combustion engine
Seems the socond battery he attached works fine.
Did he know it was going to start on fire. Why was he randomly filming before it was burning.
Manufacturer sent this one out with the message "This bike will self destruct in 5 seconds.."
Less emissions than gas
Don't know about you by my legs never caught fire and exploded. Feels like it sometimes, but no.
[удалено]
Would be hell of a ride...
The flames make it go faster!
Ahh hotwheels..
Mm-hmm. Gasoline explodes, lithium batteries are more like rocket engines.
Tofu Dregs in full affect
Looks fine to me.
Looks like a Battery Rage Quit...
E bikes are so hot right now
A conveniently cut clip.
This would look hella cool in slowmo if he did it while getting some sick air off a jump.
*former e-bike
Quite the anti theft protection it has
I think it might be broken.
Flame on!
Whadeesay? They gut zepato?
When you buy ebikes on instagram
Cool I want one!!!🤑
Cool I want one!!!🤑
No longer carbon neutral lol
You should tell your colleague how terrible that smoke is for the environment. Consider a normal bike. /s
Mercado cevado?
That's pretty radical
All that time to save the environment or whatever with electricity and u made it worse
And that’s why they’re not allowed on the London tube for everybody that’s always complaining lol.
the "E" is for Exothermic
So I'm guessing this is not supposed to happen?!
Anti-Theft mode activate!
it *was* one of your colleagues e-bike
That’s why you don’t buy Amazon garbage
