    What's the thinking behind a torque sensor?

    Thanks for the replies. I understand all the workarounds ie: increasing assist % etc. I was just curious as to why the torque sensor works based on how hard you pedal due to the reasons mentioned. I wasn't asking what I should do about it. I already have my assist setup accordingly. I'm just...

    What's the thinking behind a torque sensor?

    torque sensor works based on how hard you press on your pedals right? This is great if you're just starting your ride and feeling fresh and full of energy but, when you're tired and legs are getting sore, you can't pedal that hard anymore. To me this is where I should need the most assistance...

    50t vs 52t chainring?

    I upgraded my stock chainring on the ultra eagle to a 50t wolftooth and I like it so much that I am wondering if I should have just gone to 52t. Would I notice more top speed? I will probably leave it as is for now but later on or if it starts wearing out I may consider it for next time. I can...

    Anybody interested in buying a 52v 14.5ah downtube battery? (ultra eagle, juggernaut hd duo)

    I have the Ultra eagle and it came with the 52v 14.5ah downtube battery which is also compatible with HD duo. I am wanting to buy the 52v 17.5ah battery and would like to sell the 14.5ah battery I have now. I can provide whatever info you need from the display but for now I will say I bought the...

    My battery is stuck won't disconnect!

    This past week I finally received an empty return box from juiced to send the defective battery back. Seriously slow is an understatement I guess they are still blaming covid. I don't understand how other bike shops are operating just fine and they are seriously slower than China. Imagine if I...

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    If you haven't noticed anything then I would just leave it as-is because if you start increasing your pedal assist power then you're just going to use up your battery quicker.

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    I don't know what the deal is but they might not even know about that setting honestly. It doesn't make sense because they do give you full 100% throttle. They actually have it set in the aggressive mode by default. Which means if you peg the throttle you will wheelie which is what happened to...

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    THE BEAST IS ALIVE FOR REAL NOW!!! I updated my assist settings it still felt like it was lacking to me and I was still preferring the pedal assist on my rear hub. I complained often that I didn't like having to rely on the throttle so much!!! I don't have to on my rear hub and I didn't like...

    What's your plan for a flat tire 10 miles from home?

    Interesting I also go on long rides with my 52v 19.2 ah because it's my primary commuter since 1.5 yrs I go far enough to come back with a couple bars remaining pretty regularly. I have to be near 7500 miles by now. First year I did 5000. I would go farther if I had more range. I have never had...

    What's your plan for a flat tire 10 miles from home?

    This is so crazy how much stuff you have to carry for tubes. This is a great reminder I am so glad I switched to tubeless and I don't own a car my ebike is my primary form of transportation and I'm in Colorado I go off road and through the trails and wherever I use it for everything I don't rely...

    Which brake systems are compatible with Ripcurrent S?

    Appreciate the info. Any particular reason you only upgraded the front?

    Which brake systems are compatible with Ripcurrent S?

    Did you put Magura on your RCS ? Also can you tell me what are the noticeable differences? Are you able to stop quicker or easier when you're going fast? Do the pads last longer? I have never used a bike with high end brakes like that so I'm curious.

    What's your plan for a flat tire 10 miles from home?

    This is exactly what I was going to say AAA tells you very clearly they will not go in the middle of nowhere meaning if you were stuck on a trail somewhere and there's no access to roads they are not coming to get you. I forget where it's mentioned though but I remember seeing it. Might be when...

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    Well I wouldn't necessarily compare my experience with yours. Do you already have a rear hub ebike? Or ever ridden one? I was already riding a rear hub ebike for 1.5 yrs as my primary form of transportation. So I was already accustomed to a particular riding style. If you don't already have a...

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    That's one thing I will continue tweaking is the programming settings. I haven't really tested my range but in level 1 it seems like its lasting pretty close to my 52v 19ah but of course less because it's 14ah. Now that I have all the major stuff sorted I can mess test how far I can go and in...

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    Haha no worries! I am pretty sure I am going by what my bike shop recommended but a little higher I believe I'm at 20 psi front and rear. On the tire it says max 35 psi.

    What tire pressures do you recommend on pavement? I was wondering about that. I am mostly on pavement but cut through trails/dirt/offroad for shortcuts.

    Just got the ultra eagle - getting used to the midrive?

    It makes total sense. I can't really switch to slicks either because of the trails here but it's ok. Probably shouldn't be going that fast anyway haha
