@Timpo : I use the big battery packs for long distance / touring (anything above 100 km), though I still use my Rhino for commuting therefore the stock battery and its placement are much better suited. On the other hand, it is almost brand new (bought my bike last June). If I'm touring, I can...

So right now, I am just training and testing everything out in order to do some ebike touring next summer. At this stage of testing, the bike might weigh around 70 kg (155 lbs) when I'm training on it. Fully pack, I would expect 80 kg (176 lbs). First, listing the upgrades and then...

I have a secondary battery bought at a Chinese dealer as well. I would say, I got about half the rating Ah wise.

As a French rider, I appreciate having a European dealer. Less delay, faster shipping time. I ordered a couple of Tannus Armour to try this out. Though I have converted my Kenda tires to tubeless, they are not great when it comes to repairing if completely deflated (which haven't happened...

Not sure the 35A controller can handle anything higher than 52 V. Could be wrong.

I am 5'5 and I am replacing my stem for a longer one this week end. The handlebar is just too close to the seatpost for my liking, I tend to search for extra room behind my saddle when I'm riding and I already push my saddle to the rear position.

Thanks mate, very useful.

Thanks AHicks, I get what you're saying. Where do you see the LVC in the KT controller settings ? I though it might be P5 but not sure. I don't mind the fact that there is a high or low cutoff, I just need to know where it is and at what level it is set off. Like today, I commuted for about 40...

I was wondering if there is a way to adjust the low voltage cutoff. I think the KT is doing it the "smart way" (detects when cells are below a certain level regardless of a 48 or 52 V battery pack). I have a spare 52V battery which I took for a long ride yesterday (I initially planned for a 200...

Just upgraded with the Juintech M1 calipers as well. I prefer to keep cables for my brakes since it is easier to maintain and I will take mt bicycle in some remote areas. Mounting is plug and play, though I did need to reroute the back rear housing cable to fit the caliper (needed about an...

Man, animals are dangerous. Fortunately, never encounter an animal yet on my ebike. I did get chased down by a dog on my motorcycle and I knocked off another small dog while running in the woods at night.

2A rating is just a charging "speed" measure. It should charge 14Ah or higher capacity batteries with no issue.

I agree with Codydog, would contact Rad also. Too many parameters.

It is just a tad bit more complicated than that. For mobile devices, you will see the capacity of the battery written in Ah (Ampere hour) but it is incomplete. The capacity of battery should be written in Volt x Ampere x hour = VAh = Wh, that is why you would often see the consumption of an...

Basically, Volt = top speed Ampere = torque 25A controller delivers fewer max A than the 35A, thus improving torque.

Look at the videos on YouTube and, let's say, how fast they achieve 20 mph. The acceleration would be a much better indicator of the torque than top speed. The better acceleration is quite measurable since a bunch of guys on YouTube takes the exact same route, it is easy to spot if one motor...

Marketing, legislation, I mean pick your choice. Won't be the first time and certainly not the last and this is anything but a shocker. For Canada and Europe, my guess would be legislation. In Canada, Rad officially uses 500 W hub motor and in Europe, 250 W. Both conveniently allows Rad bikes...

My spare battery uses XT90. Will comment about the adaptor when it is received.

Hi, 1) Can't say about the stock controller but with the upgraded controller, torque and top speed are better with the true 750W. I upgraded the controller first because I received before the motor. I don't have detailed numbers like exact torque. With my usage : upgraded controller + stock...

True, I guess at the end of the day, I was just too intimated to do electronic works.
