    Cross Current

    Add to the holy grail spec "wish-list" a proper torque sensor. It's probably the most overlooked feature of the CrossCurrent. We went to great lengths to get it properly integrated onto the bike. It's the one component that brings the e-bike to life, but the hardest to understand without riding one.

    Cross Current

    Somehow the stealth black 10.4 Ah production CrossCurrent got out of the studio without anyone noticing... (Link Removed - No Longer Exists)

    Cross Current

    A much better bike for this kind of job would be our ODK U500 Utility E-bike. Its has much more pulling power and larger payload capacity. On top of this the battery capacity is up to 4x greater.

    Cross Current

    Yeah, those are the best brakes we ever tested and use them on all our bikes. Hard to get!

    Cross Current

    We got the water bottle cage mount on the production units. Black is stealth with clear coat graphics, looks sweet. We will have the pictures in different colors, 7.8 Ah and 10.4 Ah trims shortly.

    Cross Current

    We tried a few different racks. And most of them do work. We have standard finder and rack stays mount points.

    Cross Current

    We are now testing some production parts builds of the CrossCurrent to verify the actual production materials are within spec. We have scheduled the production next week and hope to get the bikes out to sea by the end of the month. Here the unpainted CC is running with a 10.4 Ah pack up to...

    Cross Current

    The cables can run inside the tube, its designed for that. However 1. We use the hydraulic disc brakes which are difficult to route inside the frame. 2. We wanted to make the bike very easy to service and internal cable routing can be insanely difficult to deal with without the right tools. So...

    Cross Current

    We kinda have such videos we share internally. This one we can now show as it is nearly a year old iPhone videos and basically raw footage of U500s getting assembled and some shots of the CC being worked on. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) Now the pace is even higher and the e-bike market...

    Cross Current

    There are a few things going on here. First off we are running flat out preparing for the production of the CrossCurrent as well as developing other new products. You often hear about the development "race" but its literally a race. Engineers are jogging between the factory, lab, offices...

    Cross Current

    The 10.4 Ah equipped CrossCurrents are now open for pre-ordering and will be available at launch in April. It is a $250 upgrade over the $1,499 standard 7.8 Ah configuration. http://shop.juicedbikes.com

    Cross Current

    Agreed, the CC is not designed to power up steep hills like a motorcycle. If you want good climbing power and long range while carrying your stuff, we have the ODK Utility E-bike with up to 48V and 32Ah for such jobs. The CC is designed to be more bike-like, fast, light and with optimized...

    Throttle or no Throttle? The Solution: Adapt!

    Both stickers will be included when required. So you can go on Class 3 paths where allowed and Class 1&2 elsewhere. Maximum flexibility with a single product is the key for us. In practice it will be much less headache than what it seems on paper. Basically they are just trying to find a easy...

    Throttle or no Throttle? The Solution: Adapt!

    The Juiced Bikes CrossCurrent is a Class 3 e-bike that takes advantage of the new CA law which allows electric assisted boost up to 28mph if the throttle is NOT used. I don't think people yet understand how ridiculously awesome that new law is for e-bikes in the USA...

    Cross Current

    Yes, that's right, the actual torque numbers do not tell you a whole bunch. The CrossCurrent clearly trades a little low end torque for high speed assistance. You get it once you ride it, it's so worth it. The other thing not shown in the figures is how the motor does not feel like it is working...

    Cross Current

    I have been camped out at the factory in China as we continue focused development on the production CrossCurrent along with some other stuff. There has been a lot of interest in this bike and the reaction when people ride is WOW! On top of this, many people already want the larger 10.4 Ah...
