I ride two analog bikes (a flat bar roadbike and a fully rigid 90s mountainbike 26er) and the Juggernaut Ultra (26er, 4 inch tire, fork replaced with rigid). The most usual problem I have is hitting a pothole and getting a flat, the thinner the tire the greater the chance of this mishap. There...

Biktrix Kutty https://www.biktrix.ca/pages/kutty-details Biktrix is a Canadian company based in Saskatchewan. You will get your bike more quickly than from other sellers, and Biktrix is generally well reviewed on this site.

I have the same tires on my Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra 1000. On highest pedal assist, I reach about 32 km/h, which is the speed limit in school zones. On throttle, the Bafang motor gives me 1500w until I hit the controller limited top speed of 50 km/h, at which point the motor cuts back to about...

First off, ebikes are sold in multiple shapes and sizes and not "only with heavy inefficient fat tires". So the question should really be: Why would anyone want to ride a fat tire ebike? Here are some related questions: Why does the heavier Camry outsell the lighter Corolla automobile in the...

Which bike has 300+ km range?

I think there are more variables in play besides temperature for the ultimate cold weather setup. If you are cycling through deep snow then a fat tire is good. If you are cycling on slick ice then thinner tires with studs might be better. In terms of keeping warm you will need less clothing if...

Beautiful. I wish you had gotten the large frame, so I could see if you could make an even bigger battery. HPC offers battery options like yours, and I hope the Watt Wagons folks see your build.

Thanks for the heads up about Pearl Izumi heated gloves. Pearl Izumi makes my favorite light lobster gloves. For heated gloves, I like Savior: Variety of types of gloves, including armored option, and lower price. I also have a pair of heated glove liners to wear inside other gloves, but I...

I am specifically looking for the highest A possible for the Ariel Rider D-class. It is offered with only a 2A charger. Thanks.

Is it possible to get higher than a 2A charger for the D-class? I would like to do a road trip with a recharge at lunch time. I think a 2A charger would take too long. Are there any higher A charger options? Thanks.

Answered my own question, it looks like there is an 8A charger available. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1009/9108/files/HyperScrambler_2_Spec_-_Sheet1_869c7042-4525-4bf4-b300-8aa7c8067fd5.pdf?v=1600192858

I like the HyperScrambler 2, but I would like to do a 200 mile trip, where I recharge half-way at lunch time. Won't the recharge time be like 10 hours with a pair of 2A chargers? Are there >2A options for the HyperScrambler 2? Thanks.

Thanks, I didn't read the review carefully: " There was a bit of confusion for me, seeing PAS on the display and thinking that the bike had pedal assist, but really it’s just power levels for the throttle. " https://electricbikereview.com/optibike/r15c-carbon-fiber/

It looks like Watt Wagons are reduced to 750W for throttle to save the IGH according to the subforum here. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/first-ride-with-the-archon-x1-upgrade.35574/page-12 The Optibike R15C has Rohloff IGH plus chain and is described as nominal 1650W and peak...

Excuse my interjection. Is it just to save the IGH? Is the Gates Carbon Drive also a factor? The Optibike R15C has Rohloff IGH plus chain and is described as nominal 1650W and peak 2500W. I don't see anything about a reduction for throttle other than top speed (28 mph, 45 kph) according to the...

With my Biktrix Ultra, I have made an unanticipated stop without a chance to gear down first. The Biktrix has a chain and cogs, so you can't really gear down at a standstill; I have to be moving and pedalling to change gears. I am not familiar with rohloff / kidnernay. Is it possible to gear...

Can I full throttle the UC Titanium from a stop in high gear? What will be the consequences? I have done this on my Biktrix Ultra with no immediate consequences. Thanks.

If you have really deep pockets, the Optibike R15C is like a Travalanche with the battery life of a dual battery Cross Tour. https://optibike.com/optibike-r15c/

I wear body armor (shirt and pants) with just a nylon shell over top (Buy a size larger so it will fit over the armor). The armor will keep you warm, and I still have a frozen shoulder from the fracture I sustained slipping on ice in just an abrasion shirt (Hard armor is better)...

I ride the Juggernaut to commute in winter, and I ride acoustic bikes in the summer. Fat bikes like the Juggernaut excel in deep snow (including from personal experience) because of float, and also apparently in mud (not from personal experience). The powerful motor shines in moving the bike...
