Take it to an impossible extreme. Two same size but different construction tires. One thick and armored to survive road hazards. The other a membrane of soap film infinitely strong yet virtually without mass or stiffness. Which tire passes over road irregularities with less loss of energy...

Asher, I agree it is almost sure to fit the CCS with ease. And it has knobs off the sides for assistance with gravel! Here is a pretty good price, https://www.bike-discount.de/en/buy/continental-speed-king-racesport-29-x-2,2-folging-159139?varid=160687 BTW, I got the front Big One mounted...

Thank you for that idea, Bruce. It may be the ticket! Here a few minutes ago, Going to Home Depot to return the sprung clamp and see if they have something larger so I might make a bit more clearance today, to tide me over till I can crush the stays righteously. Will do a roll-out test of...

If I ever do it's a walk back to home plate to bat again.

The door. Our immortality is premised, is made an imperative, by our recognition of our each-individual mortality. Our genuine drive to affect good is a intelligent, genuine good-human imperative, that old imperative to be alive to succeeding generations, forever. The door. I'll just tell...

Dear World Champion Ravi, eleven years ago, your in-kind counterpart:

You have the bigger battery, right? The stock 12.8Ah battery does not need a special step. My bike is like so: Press "ON" for an annoyingly unneccessarily long time. Then I either leave OFF the killassist switch, or flick it ON if I want to pedal manually and use the bike's odometer...

Mine took three months to arrive (Sept. 2017, until late Dec. 2017). I cannot answer your question. I can only encourage you to wait because: If you can possibly wait, oh wow, it is worth it. Consider the fun you will have for a long time, and no buyer's remorse after you finally get your...

Yep, Asher. Impractical to fit to a CCS, generally speaking. But I am going to make it work on this bike, Front tire is a Schwalbe G-One Speed SnakeSkin 29" x 2.0 mounted a couple of weeks ago. I will be changing it out soon for the larger tire size, topic of this thread. Rear tire is the...

Fat yet thin, (Tubeless sealant is working great at keeping the air in; all the pinhole leaks sealed up instantly.) However, is it time to retire from today's attempt to fit such a wide and large circumference tire? There is like zero clearance. But I am going to make it work or spoil the...

My CCS's rear wheel, maybe because of the crash three months ago, is not perfectly centered between the chain stays. When a fatter tire is mounted rub issues will result. You are seeing a 2" wide tire, not the much taller 2.35" tires I am mounting today. View is from the bottom of the bike...

I will build this posting form as the day goes on, as I meet with, and maybe succeed against, little problems that will crop up. The goal is to mount Schwalbe Big One 29 x 2.35" tires on both front and rear and without tubes. Am working on the rear wheel first because it poses the greatest...

That post with its incredibly purple prose is the most over the top thing I ever put to the internet. But I guess it would be worse if I were actually a Tora Harris fanboy. What? I am? Oh. Never mind, (thanks, Bruce, Luis, Tora and every person on this forum) I second that. Let's put an...

You got it! Am stoked to think they may work. Gotta clear the fenders, though! If not, I will keep with the very nice 2" wide "SnakeSkin" version that's on the bike now. Will report ASAP. Maybe this weekend. (for sure!!!)

No rattles at all here. I did have a pedaling squeak early on that stopped when I injected a bit of oil past the bottom bracket bearing seals (then wound an oily pipe cleaner round the spindle to ward off water splash ingress). Good idea to check tightness of everything on a regular basis...

What an enormous frustration due to an easily solved issue. Juiced should send Tronic Jon a replacement lever/line/caliper pre-bled assembly, ready to bolt on. The threaded ferrule that contains the magnetic reed switch of the motor cutoff is an adjuster, too. The depth of ferrule insertion...

Right now, practically, Tora Harris will read of your complaint and he will rectify the issue. Period. He will. Because he sees an issue of a very real nature. He is not omniscient. He cannot know of his employees' oversights until shown to him in a highlighted way, as you have now afforded...

Tell you what, I provided zero documentation and zero dollars of security. Juiced recognized me as a person of normal decency and instantly sent a new battery. I could have scammed them. The fact that I did not scam Juiced Bikes means that others can and may have done so on false pretext...

Were we to look at the automobile market of 1900 or 1908, we might see parallels for the plethora of ebike manufacturers today. The personality of an ebike company that lives is derived foremost from its creator. A creator who pushes his own, god-given persona, has a leg up. Mr. Harris does...

And I had an early failure of the battery and Juiced gave me instant and concerned response, sending me out a new battery on my mere say-so that it was bad, with no security for themselves and only a gentle request to send back the bad battery at my own convenience, with a pre-paid shipping...
