    Buyer Beware - 2 month old bike, leaking brakes and Biktrix says "wear and tear"

    Brother unless you are your own mechanic and capable of periodically inspecting and adjusting parts as needed to ride problem free utilize your LBS services and pass the service onto them. A lot of the guys on this site do their own maintenance as required or upgrades they want. If you got...

    2020 Juggernaut Ultra FS Rear Hub quality

    White Industries makes a pricey rear hub that has a shitload of contact points inside to distribute the load. My buddy has one on his ride and he's not the most gear conscious rider if you know what I mean and his is still in one piece. My Hope Pro4 is still chugging along. My rear pivot...

    Travelanche broken pivot gusset.

    A couple of e-mails back and forth to Germany and my parts are shipping Friday. Getting extra bolts and spacers etc along with the main pivot link, in fact getting two of them. Total cost with shipping is around 3 bills. Such a freakin deal. When it happened I didn't forsee it working out this...

    Swiss Cheese Crankarms

    Good job on the rework and not having had them fail on a steep climb like mine did a few years ago. Shorter crank arms a digits bonus. Been using 160's for awhile now and love em no more pedal strikes. Was using the Mirand'as but I couldn't find any 160's so I tried out a company called Praxis...

    Travelanche broken pivot gusset.

    Good news on my predicament. After sending an E-mail to the Exess bike company over in Germany yesterday afternoon I woke up today and checked my e-mail and lo and behold I recieved a response from the company. Hello Mike, Yes we still support the parts sale for the HP-180 bike. We can offer...

    Travelanche broken pivot gusset.

    Yeah that would be my guess. Have had problems with the numerous pivot point bolts backing out. Gonna have to check em like a hawk once I get this resolved.

    Travelanche broken pivot gusset.

    Just wanted to give anyone that purchased a Travelanche (Exess HP-E180a) a heads-up to make sure that ALL your pivot bolts are tightened securely before heading out on a wilderness ride or any ride for that matter. Im usually pretty good about making sure checking everything is tight but I guess...

    Undertaking legal actions against Watt Wagons

    Mr T a Sturmy archer 3 spd SXRK3 hub will do just fine with an G510 ( Ultra ) motor especially with the Archon x1 toned down perimeters on performance which seems like alot of guys prefer as opposed to the full power/torque/response available with the proprietary programming usb cable. I use...

    Undertaking legal actions against Watt Wagons

    "Speaking of which how's that Sturmy Archer hub working out for you on that POS you bought from China?" Nice, that the way to stay classy. I glad Mr. P. has responded in this thread and gave his side of the story, there's always two sides but that being said... Probably a little late to...

    Undertaking legal actions against Watt Wagons

    Mike V Another member to ignore. "Because I like the WW Company and everyone on their brave and innovative team" Pioneer? EH up in El Segundo was doing this long before WW rolled in on the scene. Ultra motors have been around for awhile so that's nothing new. The Archon X1 controller is...

    Watt Wagons Critical Product Availability Status

    Almost everyone I know that has an E-bike has had to replace their original chain that came with their bike. You would think that it would be the perfect fit right? Your chainline looks fine to me. When your in your smallest cog do those cable supports on your chain stay that support your...

    Mr. D. not to beat a dead horse but could you post one last pic from behind the rear cassette looking forward like in my second pic. What chain are you running? Cassette in good working order? Have you had this issue since you first got it or just recently? Don't you hate a guy that shows up...

    Deacon here's a few pics I took today of my buddys set-up. Like I said he has usage of all of his gears and no issues when shifting or dropping the chain. First pic is of mine just for a quick reference. I'm running a 148mm Boost rear hub and an 11spd Shimano set-up. Just the standard stock...

    Watt Wagons Critical Product Availability Status

    Mr B. it's hard to tell from your pic but what does the chainline look like when your in the middle of your cassette gearing. It looks to me your chainring need to come out farther. Put it in your most center cog and adjust your chainring in or out to have the chain line up as straight as you...

    Mr. Blues how wide is your rear hub? My friend has a bike with a 197mm rear end and is running an 11 spd derailler on it with the 3" x 27.5" tires. He's got the Ultra also and rides 90% of the time off-road and he has full use of every gear and no skipping or dropping that I can remember. His is...

    In the fine print of the sellers website (Cloudsto Andy Kirby) there is a note claiming VAT to be paid by customer. So it was stated but repeated inquiries to the company on how much it would be went unanswered. They got there answer when US Customs sent them an e-mail on needed the Tax paid in...

    Couple buddys of mine got a couple of bikes from the UK BY WAY OF CHINA and had to pony up almost 9 bills apiece for them to release the bikes to be delivered. They weren't told that " Import Fee" up front either.

    Hydra Batterie Question

    Bexamous that's lame. When Pushkar initially made his first tutorial video on the Archon X1 controller I watched it and then sent him "Suggested modification" on info from the video. One of them was the in his video he shows the "Dealer Version" with the option of changing the 48v or 52v option...

    Need Performance Controller For M620 Ultra

    Yeah I think you gotta send in the motor to be set-up with the new controller. I got a spare M620 motor a while back and talked to Pushkar at WW and asked if my existing Archon X1 controller in my current Ultra motor could be installed in the stock motor and he said yes but they needed to be...
