    Can I Ditch the Car? Speed Commuter with Some Cargo Needs

    I use a topeak rack and single pannier bag, but all I need to take is my coffee/breakfast/change of clothes. You might have a better time on r/ebikes if you want to DIY, they are extremely helpful over there. For my ride I usually average 20mph with reasonable low personal effort. After that...

    Can I Ditch the Car? Speed Commuter with Some Cargo Needs

    If you're mechanically and electrically inclined, you could convert that bike DIY style and save money, definitely. I have a 52V Juiced CCS and commute 15 miles each way daily, takes me about 40 minutes. It's got suspension in the front, but I'm upgrading to a suspension seat post. Even with...

    NEW Juiced Models: Rip Current, and Cross Current X; Tariff Pricing Announced

    Or in some cases with the CCS, they ship the fender and no support bars, and can't find any laying around for months :(. Still waiting on my front fender bars... Edit: Right after posting this I got an email that they were on their way. I take back everything.

    Folding E-Bike Work Stand

    I put my CCS in this every day to store it, besides using it to clean and lube every week. It's a 53lb bike. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00D9B7OKQ?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title

    Juiced Bikes CrossCurrent S Aftermarket Rack Help

    I put my topeak explorer rack on it and attached it to the seat post with a plethora of zip ties. Works fine for me.

    Peripheral Neuropathy and Ebiking

    This thread actually got me thinking about some wrist pain I've been having. I'm 6'3, and the seatpost on my CCS is super high, but the ergo grips are defaulted to flat. I rotated them to a high angle, in line with my wrists, and it's so much more comfortable. I never thought about adjusting...

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

    My wheels were very untrue when I unboxed my CCS, but my LBS fixed that cheaply and quickly. It's a problem I would expect of any prebuilt bike. Since then they've been fine. My brake pads rubbed the rotors a little on arrival as well, easily fixed in a few minutes by myself. Other than that...

    Peripheral Neuropathy and Ebiking

    I hadn't thought about a riser bar, but it might help me out. I'll look into them.

    Peripheral Neuropathy and Ebiking

    I severely damaged my ulnar nerve a few years ago, leading to neuropathy in my right arm. Riding my standard bike with tubes for handlebars was very painful after a few minutes, I didn't know there were any other options before I saw the ergonomic grips on the juiced ccs. The flat spot there has...

    Last minute questions about CCS

    I think the people in the port melting/warping thread agreed to slightly loosen the connection on the frame side, so the socket can 'float' with bumps that might cause the battery to wrench away from the frame. That's what I did. As a side note, I love mine. It feels like a big step up from my...

    Charging to 80% without a Satiator

    I use 55% of my charge with both legs of my commute combined, so for my use case it's very useful to be able to stop charging at 80%, get back home at 25%, and repeat, letting me get those extra cycles essentially for free. I agree, a lot of people will want to top theirs off for the extra speed...

    Charging to 80% without a Satiator

    Greetings all, I just did some math to figure out how to charge my battery to 80% based on timing the charge cycle on the basic 2 amp charger. Here's what I came up with: The 52V, 19.2AH battery is actually listed as 52V, 19.2AH on the label, so that's good, I'm not sure where the 52V, 21AH...

    I used a 15/16th socket and hand loosened it yesterday. They are not on tightly.

    Have you guys with the arcing error tried loosening the socket a little bit, so it can travel with small bumps of the battery pack?

    Tariffs and eBike Prices

    Anyone have an idea how this will affect Juiced's Scrambler Indiegogo campaign? If all of these bikes are being sold at $999 and Tora doesn't have a 25% profit margin, they could end up losing money on all the bikes already 'sold' (because they're still being built right now in China and have...

    My RipCurrent S Experience

    I'm prepared for my upgraded battery pack to not include the adapter when my CCS arrives. Which adapter would I need for the standard charger? http://www.ebikes.ca/shop/electric-bicycle-parts/connectors.html

    Greetings, another newcomer here - CCS hopefully on the way soon

    What size and color did you go for? I purchased a large, red, CCS two days ago and received the tracking number this morning.
