Hi has anyone purchased a Volition bike from the Sydney outlet? What model was it and what was your experience like with them? Thanks for any feedback.

Hey I’m interested in the Jet bike from Volition, is it still working well for you? What’s the fastest you can pedal with the motor assist and the 3 speed internal rear hub? Any issues with the rear 3 speed hub? I see they only have one size, how tall are you and does the bike size work well for...

Haha, I wish, then I wouldn’t need a motor

I usually do 15 miles to work, then 7 hour brake, then 15 miles home, largely on flat ground, though often against a head wind and can get hot where I live, on 47 700cc tires. If the ultra is designed to shut down if it heats up that would obviously help me, then I go to a 48t front cog might...

How many gears do you need? Ive usually used a 10 speed with a rear cog of 11 to 36t. I note some are suggesting using a 3 speed internal rear hubs for example, which seems like a good idea, are less gears better? but I’m concerned the motor would just chew through that as well. So what’s the...

I hardly ever used the throttle, I peddled as much as I could, to assit the motor and get as much distance as possible.... I was used to cruising on flat bike paths at about 30mph, maybe I need to lower my expectations with speed, yet you see many videos with the same motor going much faster...

Are you suggesting the 52t cog then is also too large? What is the largest you would recommend and how do I best manage to maintain pedalling motion at higher speeds?

@TForan Thanks for your feedback, can I ask how many kms or miles have you done using the 52t on your ultra motor? Why are you thinking of dropping back?

I’m not sure, they guy at the shop said it could be done, I’ve done it with an evo motor, that i also burnt out 3 of those dodgy motors, motors seem to fail on every bike I ride, yes must be really bad luck or they just can’t take the 50km rides I do daily, I thought that’s what bikes were for...

so you suggest I can’t use a 52t front cog? Not even on the ultra?

I have gone through 3 bbshd motors in 3 years with a dual battery set up on a 52T front cog, my last motor lasted less than 6 months, the first motor had a gear issue replaced under warrant, the last 2 burnt out, not sure what is going wrong in my circumstance, I thought they are supposed to be...

This bike looks awesome, dual battery, easy access, the prefect travel machine

I had a belt drive on the intergrale kalkhoff and it came off a couple of times, that wasn’t the only thing wrong with this bike, like everything didn't work, I Iike the idea of the belt drive though, after going back to a cassette chain I miss it

I had a kalkhoff a few years ago with the impulse motor and went through 3 of them from the quackking noise before I’d had enough, Kalkhoff knew these motors were faulty and pushing them out the door, disgraceful, warning dont buy a kalkhoff, I’m a big fan of bafang motors now.

I had a kalkhoff a few years ago and was sadly disappointed,however it was with the impulse 2 motor which was notoriously unreliable, but that was enough to realise Kalkhoff don’t stand by their products and happy to push out products they know are faulty, id pick the alternative bike, I really...

Don’t buy a kalkhoff with an impulse motor you’ll be sadly disappointed as I was, I’ll never buy Kalkhoff again, go for Bafang much better

Not prefect is an understatement for me regarding Kalkhoff engines. I spent 6k on my Kalkhoff bike to have 2 motors fail and be replaced with the quacking condition and the problem still persists with little support from Kalkhoff, I’m about to start legal proceedings against the shop that sold...

I have the Intergrale 8 as well, I had the front cog replaced with a bigger one and commute 25km each way to work every day, it's amazing, apart from a few nigglimg problems but I'm pushing it hard, it goes like the wind

I have a khalkoff with an Evo motor with 80kn of talk, a throttle is not required, I always try and use bike paths, I can understand maybe when you get older it would come in handy but you have the best of both works with pedal assist power and exercise

No news is good news I guess?! I'm beginning to suspect it's not the engine but something else. Has any used the badass box at all on an Kalkhoff Intergrale and can provide any feedback? Any service issues with your Intergrale? The guy I bought it from don't seem to have a clue how to maintain...
