    Hilly 10mile commute - suggestions?

    I really like it. When I saw the specs on the csx I immediately wanted one though. It would be great to have the extra boost going up the mountains. I appreciate what Mr. Harris did with all the feedback on the CCS. He listened and improved on it with the csx. The worse thing about Juiced...

    Hilly 10mile commute - suggestions?

    SD_TOM. You initially mentioned (1) not in shape. That moped is not going to help much with that! FWIW, I also have a Burgman. It has did a lot of setting in the garage this year. I know others have chimed in on specific bikes. I have a CCS. It is rear hub. Map my ride says my 21 mile...

    Juiced Bikes 40 mph!!

    I'm right there with Chris. There is not a single bike path in my whole county. There are though, a lot of crazy drivers who want to get around me. I would love to be able to go 40 until I felt it was safe for them to pass then slow down for them. Sadly, I imagine there would still be some...

    Hilly 10mile commute - suggestions?

    Just wanted to say, yes, you can do this. I'm doing a 42 mile round trip commute in SW Virginia. This was just out of my me-bike range. E-bike made it possible. I definitely recommend a class 3. You can always go slower if you want. FWIW, I got a 650 watt rear hub with a 48v battery. It...

    Why did you buy make and model?

    Juiced CCS. This was primarily due to the larger battery and great range. I have a long commute and fear of running out of juice. Price was also a factor.

    I did read. I was responding to the statement: "I would guess that the top speed of your bike is a good bit higher than hers."

    Known Issues & Problems with Juiced Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Yes. The CCS is faster. The Voltbike cuts off assist at 20mph. Still the torque does not feel peppy compared to my wife's bike. I feel the speed comes mostly from the difference in gearing though. I'm going to pull Courts reviews and compare NM's. I want to write my own 1000 mile review...

    Known Issues & Problems with Juiced Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I have tried the TAB. It does help topping out on the mountains. I also noticed the display at times reads at or near 1000 Watts when using TAB or Turbo setting. Oddly, sometimes setting 3 seems to offer more assist than the sport mode.

    Known Issues & Problems with Juiced Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I just wanted to throw this out there and pick the collective brain. I bought a CCS with the 19.2 ah battery. I bought my wife a Voltbike Elegant. While the Elegant has a 500 watt motor compared to my 650 watt motor, her bike has better acceleration and torque than my bike. I thought it...

    Crazy Stupid Commute

    The trunk is a generic 30L universal motorcycle/scooter trunk. The mirror is a Venzo Stainless Steel mirror. I purposely did not recommend specific items as I feel they are personal choices. I just try to find a balance between function and cost. I will say the idea of turning the mirror...

    Crazy Stupid Commute

    Get ready to wait. It took mine two months to the day to arrive. Use your time to research upgrades. For a long commute I would highly recommend a comfortable seat. Upgraded seatpost. Some type of large rear storage container. Definitely get a mirror.

    Why do we ebike?

    Loved this string. One of the many reasons I ride my ebike is so I can eat blueberry cheesecake when I want. Which is what I am doing right now! There are less shallow reasons but you all took most of the good ones already. On a more serious note. David. My heart goes out to you to you...

    Quick question? I just bought a Voltbike Elegant which i subsequently received damaged. It is currently at the LBS awaiting parts. As I have not actually got to familiarize myself with the bike I have a question. When I turned it on, the indicator lights flashed on then turned off. Is this...

    Crazy Stupid Commute

    I cut my 42 mile round trip in half on my CCS. I was anywhere from 2hr 15min to as fast as 1hr 45min one way on my road bike. I cut it down to 57 min as my fastest time so far. Whatever you get, I'm sure you will still get a workout!

    YRC shipment tracking

    Make sure it's not damaged. My wife's bike took quite a beating. Now it's in the LBS due to shipping damage.
