Welcome bkaufffman. In my case, I wanted more battery capacity, and all the other dul-battery setups I saw had at least one non-integrated. So yeah, looks partly. Also I was shopping from Biktrix, and with air shock, quad piston brakes, and dual batteries with 5A chargers, it looked like the...

Hey Terry, a shim is fine, but here's the problem: Battery doesn't fully seat properly at electrical connection end, therefore doesn't drop fully into slot at the lock end. A shim to force the battery hard against the connector enables me to jam it in enough for slider to engage, keeping battery...

Sorry I'm late, but congrats. You waited longer than anyone. Biktrix got mine shipped quick but I'm still having issues, so speaking of which, here's an update: I've been in contact several times, and they're not laughing in my face but do want better evidence. We've had a multiple rounds so...

If it's any consolation, after getting a flat every other outing, I'm not riding mine either until I get my inserrts (which are backordered).

Well I now I have one on the front to go with the set on the rear, seems to be from a goathead. Had to drive an hour to find a shop with 26x4 tubes in stock and bought their last pair - I'll have to save a patched tube as my spare.

Yeah, hoping the biking will burn off some pounds. As for tire pressure, I've been trying to keep 'em at 25psi (except for my trail ride), but I have 3 patches in the rear tube and it's flat again, so quite possibly I never had the pressure I thought I did. Local Walmart has no fat tire tubes...

GPS says 28 when display says 25, which is what I expected - need to program display with actual tire diameter, not rim diameter. Biktrix said to unburden the wheel by leaning onto the kickstand, then run throttle, and I should see 70kph. I saw 48mph, so that checks out. I'm starting to think...

Hi Boomski. Try the biktrix site: https://support.biktrix.com/hc/en-us/articles/360050765411-Juggernaut-Ultra-Beast-Rear-Rack-Installation

Thanks. I did not, and I got a flat yesterday so my riding's done 'til I fix it. Got an emergency callout from work while I was starting on it. But before that I did fully charge my battery, found a level spot, put on level 5 sport, and with throttle and PAS couldn't exceed 25mph per display, at...

Yeah, the chat operator on the weekend isn't a mechanic but referred my question. Yes, both batteries work fine on lower slot, either needs to be jammed into upper slot. With effort I can hold it down and get the slider into position, but there's still a gap at the high end of the slot. When the...

Yeah, I've wondered about that video too. He gets to 30-something on throttle and pushes it to over 40 by pedaling. I have no reason to impugn his claim, but I only get to mid thirties coasting down a long steep grade, and at that speed spinning the pedals against no resistance makes no...

Thanks for this, I thought those sliders were just the back side of the lock. However, it's not my problem; the slider won't engage because the battery doesn't quite seat properly. It doesn't slide all the way down at the rear becuase it doesn't slide all the way onto the plug at the top. Same...

Power is volts times amps. Voltage is set by the batteries in the string, and current is set by the battery management system and the controller. The controller is stock, and our batteries have a 30 amp Battery Management System (40 amp peak) per Biktrix, but they use the same batteries as...

Hey guys, has anyone seen this problem? Top battery keeps jumping out of its slot when I hit a bump. So today I took the dirt road into Joshua Tree National Park - no gate there, just ride on in. That road doesn't connect up with any of the paved amenities but does go to Eureka Peak, about...

Hi Ty, you're probably smarter about this than me, but I lost a bolt from my rear brake - could be anywhere in town at this point. Should have done a better job inspecting the bolts before riding.

Funny you should mention that. I first started thinking seriously about the Biktrix version when you reviewed your test ride on the Bikonit. Now that I have the thing, and finally got to ride a big hill today, I'm thinking the SA IGH would be fine. The reason is that the bike seems happiest in...

My brakes seem fine. Is there a reason to worry about them?

Hey Gee-Whiz, did you ever pull the trigger? The new bronze color looks awesome in photos. I just got the beast, mostly stock but for A-Bars and dropper post. The handlebars are a matter of personal taste, but the dropper is a necessity. This is a big bike. At 6'1" I need it all the way up for...

A few more impressions after second ride, still short because I had very little light left in the sky after work. 16) Does anyone know how to buy the right chain guard off the internet? My chain ring is 44 tooth, has spots for 5 bolts to hold the bash guard on, and these holes form a pentagon...

Biktrix asked if I'd ridden on the tires, a reasonable question in hindsight. I should have curbed my enthusiasm and stayed off the bike until tires could be sorted. They have offered to sell me a second wheel set at a discount that sounds like they're basically giving up their profit margin...
