    New Voltbike Yukon 750 spotted

    The rectangular thing on my rear spoke is my RF tag for commuting to work. Tesla provides incentives for employees to ride bikes and they track our daily commutes with this tag. Perspective isn't playing with your mind, the phone holder is pretty big and bulky but saved my iPhone 6+ & 7+...

    New Voltbike Yukon 750 spotted

    Happy New Year! I bike 25 miles roundtrip for my commute to work and have a bad back from my football days in college. So the aggressive place of the handle bars was a little too much on my back. I added a stem extender from OUTERDO to raise the handle bars ~3" (75mm) for a more up right ride...

    @Josh88 I am running 20psi as well right now since I am riding mostly bike lanes for my commute to work. I do want to try 15psi to see if there is a noticeable difference.

    @SuperGoop I was referring to the nominal battery voltage of 48v and the maximum current setting parameter in the LCD display as 10A. I set it to 16A. As you listed there are far more things to consider when speaking about power to the motor since the cells have voltage ranges and behave...

    I really like the Suntour seat post so far. I'm about 215lbs with a bad back and I don't need to stand up and/or slow down going over sewer covers anymore. Definitely worth purchase for my needs. I will let you know once I figure out the speed improvements. Hopefully we really aren't limited...

    New Voltbike Yukon 750 spotted

    Finally had a chance to take a few pics of my experience and upgrades. After 100 miles I was sidelined a day by my friend the screw. The screw decided to hitch a ride on my rear tire and not the front tire for a challenge. Unfortunately I was not fully equipped to perform the type of tire...

    Just ordered

    The battery fit on my Yukon 750 is tight and does not rattle like in Court's review. I was a little surprised at how loud the motor can get during riding.

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    I confirmed by trial and error. Definitely helps when you want to just cruise at the lower speeds. I'm with you liking/needing full throttle from time-to-time.

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    I have a Yukon 750 Limited and it seems like it has the same APT Intelligent LCD (800S) as the Mariner. I believe the HD6 parameter sets the throttle to 6km/h; 0 for off and 1 for on. HDP toggles the throttle power/current level to match the PAS level (1 for on) or off (0) for full power...

    New Voltbike Yukon 750 spotted

    @SuperGoop Yes, my wait is finally over. I already swapped the saddle with my Cloud-9 Cruiser saddle but thanks for the reminder. Haven't had a lot of time to start swapping components but I was able to rearrange the handle bar more to my liking. Here are a few pics: Added my Tygra iPhone case...

    Oh and they sent me a white helmet instead of a black one so minor inconvenience.

    @SuperGoop Wow, impressive bike rack. I really like the ability to extend the arm out to ease the pain of lifting the bike onto the rack itself. So I just received my bike today! Super excited to commute tomorrow to work with it. @Josh88, my bike did not receive the latest updates that included...

    New Voltbike Yukon 750 spotted

    @SuperGoop I agree with @dm nelson , the unveil has been awesome. You definitely have me looking at some of the accessories you added like the derailleur protector and chain stay protector. On a side note, do you mind telling me how tall you are? I am curious to see if I have any issues with the...

    They emailed me and gave the 25th date as the estimated ship date. The new inventory is coming in around the 20th. I ordered a black "Limited". I was happy to hear you report that the battery does not rattle.

    New Voltbike Yukon 750 spotted

    Hi @SuperGoop, How long did it take for them to ship your 750 Limited? I ordered mine on 9/23 and my order still says processing. I've emailed them multiple times only getting one response on 9/26 stating they just received another shipment of parts and would send out shipments shortly after. I...
