Life keeps disrupting my plans to get over to Watt Wagans. 😅I’ll have my time back to myself in a couple of days and hope to get there. I’ll share what I learn then.

Thanks for the heads up but I’m more than comfortable buying from Watt Wagons. In fact, this will be my second bike from them as I have an UC Pro to ride until it this new model ships. This bike is just what I want and the wait will be worth it to me.

Thanks for the quick response. See you next week.

This is my next bike. When can I place an order? 😃

I’m in the area and meet most of the requirements for group 2. I don’t have experience with FS bikes. Helping WW grow would be a pleasure. Testing your new bikes would be a blast!

A good buddy of mind has a Brose based e-bike and the Archon X-1 makes my UCP power come on as smoothly as it dose on my buddy’s e-bike, if not more so. Whenever I’m riding where there’s traffic noise masks out the motor, I can forget I’m on an e-bike as I can’t detect any of the power surges I...

I’m good with the first four features as they meet my needs. Feature 6 would be nice to have and the others would be bonus features I probably wouldn’t use.

I don’t see myself doing much with profiles. Given the way you tuned it, I feel I can get all I need from the torque and power of the motor. As it is, I fine the torque and power comes on with refinement and works well with how I ride. I’m using my bike to cruise around in retirement, as my main...

I may never get to PAS 5. Today, I did PAS 3, ECO mode, in gear 10 and had no problem getting to 30 MPH on a flat stretch and going uphill at 20+ MPH on slight grades. When I want to get some exercise I have to drop into a low gear and spin my legs off and I can still do 15+ MPH. Its nice...

If we’re talking about 60-80 mile trips, I can’t see how a 52V/21AH battery with the new controller would let you down unless you’re carrying close to the weight limit for the bike or you’re taking on some significant elevation changes, etc. In general, I’ll say the new controller ups the power...

I wish I’d kept notes on my rides before the upgrade so I could give a bit more meaningful answer. I did a 29 mile ride this morning, over a relatively flat course (just 40 feet of elevation). I biked in Eco mode, Level 1. My average speed was 16 MPH with a top speed of 34 MPH. I went out with a...

To my ear, it sounds a bit smother. Overall, the bike feels more refined and responsive. I feel like I’m gliding along at 20 MPH. I have much more of the sensation of being one with the bike.

I got the upgrade today. Thank you Pushkar. Now I have a new bike. I went for a short, 15 mile ride, and had a blast. The power comes on so much smother. The motor seems more powerful and the UCP seems much quicker. I’m turning 70 shortly and prior to the upgrade I tended to ride at...

Thanks for the instructions. They are clear but I see lots of steps where I could go wrong, given my skill level. I’m going to let my LBS fix the flat and I’ll ask them about using Tannus inserts. I’m also going to find a class on removing/installing Rohloff wheels. I want to be prepared for the...

I’ve got 1000 miles on it. The tires look good to me but I know little about how to judge bike tire wear. I’ll know more once I pull the tire off and inspect it.
