    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    I completely agree with your observations. I am new to the ebike world but my initial reaction to so many PAS systems are lower PAS settings are way too fast and if the lowest setting are slow, on level 1 and 2 by the time 3 kicks in its off to the races. Why cant these manufactures of ebikes...

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    Thats a good thing about being in PAS mode and being able to not pedal the bike but start with the throttle but........when you first kick in the throttle can it be fairly subtle as you barely engage it or does it whisk you off pretty quickly no matter how little throtle you use.

    Group Order suggestion for RAD Power Bikes to save money

    You can test ride a Rad Mini in Newport Beach at this bike rental place on Balboa Island.......I forgot the name of the place but the company will have the name of the place. It cost $25 to take it out for an hour and then they give you a online voucher for $50 off your purchase.

    Cnugget , did you ever hear back from George about the throttle only option on your bike or just the newer ones now being released? Also, Can you be in a selected PAS level of your choice at a complete stand still , not pedal and use throttle only to get the bike started then once you get going...

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    I am sure that 20MPH is fast enough on a 20" fat tire bikes.........I know on my wifes bike the motor wont go faster than 20 MPH on flats but if you are doing a bit of a smooth downhill a you inch into the 21-23 mph and not using much motor the engine doesn't just shut off , which could be more...

    I wonder if there is anyway to override the governor limit setting somehow within the system setting? PAS hack you could call it.

    Cnugget do you have the latest Mariner 500 watt limited edition? If your not sure, go to Volts website and look under Mariner new section and see if that is the version of the Mariner you have. Make sure you report back and let us know if your version incorporates the throttle only feature. If...

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    I just heard back from George at Volt bikes and he says the Mariner special edition does have throttle only mode , maybe this is a new feature on the 500watt special edition thats just now coming out. I really like the ability to just barely touch the throttle at a complete stand still to get...

    Has anyone tried an Green Bike GB-1 USA ebike

    Maybe I should be looking at more of the advantages/disadvantage of a foldable 20' fat tire (4" wide) bike with a bit more power compared to a regular folding 20" (2.125 " wide) slightly lower power Ebike.

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    Thanks Cnugget for the replies. Pas settings 1-3 are they fairly mild and gradual order do the kick in and ramp up pretty quick? How is the throttle mode with lower levels of pedal assist, is it gradual or does it kick in fairly big when it is first engaged a little?

    Volt Bike Mariner 2016: So far so happy! Observations as they happen.

    Interesting post about lower PAS settings and too much power. I was deciding between the Radmini and the Mariner limited 5oo watt special edition. I drove an hour up the coast to demo a Rad Mini. Thought it look super cool but on the flats it seem to have too much power at the lower PAS...
