    Known Issues & Problems with Surface 604 Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    My Colt is making noises after only riding it 35 miles. One noise is on every pedal crank in the down direction on the right. I initially suspected the chain guard, but it doesn't look very close to the chain. The other is a more persistent noise. I suspect the fenders are rubbing the tires. I'm...

    Looking for New Ebike

    Do you mean the CrossCurrent S2? I don't see a free fender/rack option. That's a great deal! https://www.juicedbikes.com/products/crosscurrent-s2?variant=13058617802775

    Looking for New Ebike

    I think mid-drive is better than hub drive. I am also looking at installing the Bafang mid-drive motor on my Giant Cypress LX. This conversion kit with battery is in the $1100-$1200 range, I think. You can get it on Amazon. It doesn't look all that difficult, but there are some special tools...

    Windows Software for Programming Surface 604 Bikes?

    Nice! All the goods in a tidy package. I am at least going to wait until I've had the bike a while to see if it does the job I need it to do already. Just got it a few days ago. Haven't commuted once yet. Tomorrow. :) Thanks again!

    Windows Software for Programming Surface 604 Bikes?

    I've read in a couple places in this forum of a Windows application that allows the a Surface 604 bike to be programmed. I have questions about this: Where does the computer connect to the bike? What does the software allow you to customize? Does using the software void any warranty? Where can...

    Looking for New Ebike

    I just bought my first ebike from surface604.com. The Colt is $1799 with free shipping from Vancouver, BC. Pretty happy with it so far, though my first commute will be tomorrow. I am expecting around 25 miles range (I'm around 240lbs). Unfortunately, they are completely out of stock until...

    Happy Summer 2019 from Northern Virginia!

    Yep. I didn't even have to put the seat at max height. It feels way different than my Giant Cypress LX for sure. But with all the adjustments on this e-bike, I've got it setup quite comfortably. This bike only comes in two frame sizes: S and M/L. M/L worked for me.

    Hello from Everywhere! Friends and Visits?

    Hi Court! Thanks for posting the unedited video from Electric City Bikes in D.C. I didn't even know it existed, but now I have a destination for my new (first) e-bike! Keep it up, man. You are playing your part in saving the world! And thanks for EBR. I am spreading the word here in Northern...

    Happy Summer 2019 from Northern Virginia!

    Thanks to the great video reviews by EBR, my decision of which to make my first ebike was easy (and fun!). I'm 6'5" tall and weigh around 240lbs. So I needed a bike that could hold more than 250lbs to feel "safe" in that regard. I also didn't want to break the bank. So many of these bikes are...

    What's up with Surface 604?

    Hi all. My first post since joining. Just bought a M/L Colt from surface604.com. It shipped a week after ordering and I got it 3 days later (FAST shipping! no tariff due on delivery). It must have been one of the last ones they had in stock because their site now says they are SOLD OUT. I've...
