Yep.....I believe this is Uphill that brought over his wife battery from her Green Bike to my house to try and see if it worked on my Mariner. It look absolutely identical to my battery as far as look and size. Even looking at them side by side they looked identical. When we placed it in the...

I mean, my bike is 500 watts rear hub motor with currently a 48 volt ,10.4 Ah silverfish style battery. Can I purchase any silverfish style battery as long as it is 48 volts? Are all silverfish style batteries have the same electronic connections. Do I have to take into consideration my hub...

Are these battery definitely compatible with the Mariner? Since my Mariners expected to arrive by the end of this week and I have no experience with it thus far,if i am using moderate levels of PAS with occasional moderate hills (nothing too crazy). How long will the mariner included battery...

Just got word my Mariner will be shipped out on Monday. This weekend looks like my maiden voyage.......yeah Im psyched.....I waited a long time, my wifes had her bike for over 2 months now......glad I didnt cave and waited for the Mariner!

Thanks Cnugget for taking time to do the pics and vid. Looks like I should be fine, being a shorter man, seat height has always been an issue for myself. That is one of the reasons for picking a 20" wheel size. Most 26" bike are just to much for me to handle comfortably. George at Volt said my...

I never fixed a flat on a fat tire bike.

In case anyone hasnt seen it, a newly released video (Nov1) on the new Mariner limited edition. Great review and great vid! Im psyched, my Mariner is shipping out on Monday, after seeing the reveiw i am soooooo glad I didnt change my mind while waiting on the pre-order process. Here's the...

Hope Volt is listening,,,,,,,and they could chime in on the matter.

No worries I think I am good with that approximation. My bike still hasn't shipped and still could change my mind if I found something comparable or even a bit better. My biggest beef is with that speed governor and that there is no way to defeat it. Not that I am a speed demon by any means...

Wow great detailed responses, and yes, I live at the beach (Pacific Ocean) so salt water and sand are going to be my biggest enemies.

Which is another reason that I wish there was some way to turn that damn governor speed limiter off. Sometimes squeaking a couple of MPH fast could get you out of a bad situation where having the engine just shut itself off can be quite dangerous in a lot of these heavily congested area of...

Are there any pics of the Mariner folded in half, I cannot find any anywhere and what to make sure the it will fold fairly tightly and concentrated for a fat tire bike.

I know this sounds like a silly question but I am quite serious. I am getting the Volt 20" fat tire mariner mountain trail bike in the next week or so. I am planning on running this bike on both beach sand and dirt trails. I am concerned of the best way to clean sand and debris from both the...

Can anyone provide any pics of the Mariner folded in half. I cannot find one and wanted to make sure it folds in half fairly tight and clean. Still waiting for my Mariner to arrive ,release date has been delayed three times so far.

I am awaiting my arrival of my new and first ebike a Volt Mariner which has a 20" X 4" fat tire all terrain E-bike. Are there any special techniques that I should be aware of changing a smaller fat tire bike tire. Are these type of tires harder to change than a standard size bike tire. Any...
