    Standup rack for a pickup.

    Maybe someone can help with this. I have a 2006 Toyota Tacoma pickup and I am in the market for a standup rack for the bed. I will need something that will accommodate a Voltbike Yukon with 4 inch tires and a Surface Colt. Not interested in removing the front wheel or hanging the bike over the...

    Interchangeable batteries

    I don't know which will be my preference but I'm looking forward to finding out. I'm just really happy to be riding again. The second bike quickly became a necessity because anyone riding a standard bicycle is at a total disadvantage going out togethe,r so it seemed like a forgone conclusion. I...

    Yukon Headlamp.

    Yes AguassissiM, That looks like a solution. I just wanted something that didn't clip onto my handlebars. I believe I found it but it took some work.

    Interchangeable batteries

    Hey Larry, battery compatibility would be nice but it wasn't essential to my decision making. That Surface Colt looks like a really nice bike also and I wanted to diversify a bit, try something else. I like the torque sensor on the Colt, the hydraulic brakes, the chainguard and the adjustable...

    Yukon Headlamp.

    Hey Bob. I bought the lamp from Dime City Cycles online. Search "old school Headlamps" on their site. The headlamp was around 60 bucks. I then agonized about how I was going to go about this. I didn't want to run it off the bike battery and I wasn't sure I could. The bulb that it comes with is...

    Yukon Headlamp.

    I don't do a lot of night riding but there is something anemic looking about the headlamp that comes stock with the Yukon IMHO. I saw someone else had really beefed up their headlight and I liked it so I took a swing at that. I kept the stock headlight also as a Highbeam of sorts. I love the...

    Interchangeable batteries

    Thanks fellas. I know what ya mean Alex but I was just hoping to be carrying a "free" spare when I'm out alone. And JRA, I agree but ya can never tell with the perspective in these pics. The battery on my Yuke could end up being bigger lol.

    Interchangeable batteries

    Been having so much fun with my Voltbike Yukon 750 that I decided to add another bike so I can tandem ride with a friend. I purchased a Surface 604 Colt which is in transit. My question, if anyone knows off the top of their head is; is it possible the batteries on these 2 bikes are...

    Any Colt owners, a quick question.

    Hello all. Looking into this bike. Presently riding a Voltbike Yukon 750. My question is; at my 230 pound 6 foot size, in your opinion is the 500 Watt motor going to be enough. It is fairly hilly where I live and the Yukon is fine. Really peppy uphill actually. The Colt looks like a great bike...

    Congrats on the bike! I can tell you that whatever the battery is rated at after one week ... it just goes and goes and goes. On my first long ride last weekend I went 14 miles. I pedaled along most of the way using pedal assist 1 on the flats and pedal assist 5 on the steep hills. At the...

    Converting a Micargi Mustang NX3

    Hey , thanks John. That's why I'm here. I'd hate to buy all the parts and then hit a wall, so to speak. Looking forward to to more input from the community and I agree , I think it's a cool look!

    Converting a Micargi Mustang NX3

    Hello all. Thinking about attempting this project. Has anyone else done this? Thinking about using a Magic Pie front wheel hub motor. Any thoughts from the group would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hey @SuperGoop . I doublechecked and there are no markings there either. Either way, summer has finally come to my neck of the woods and the bike got here just in time. I swapped out the seat for something a little less rugged and tomorrow is going to be another beautiful day!

    Hey there, the battery doesn't clearly state what it is but it is a Samsung and I believe it is 48V 10 Ah. That is what George said at the time of purchase. Yes I am in New York, shipping took 15 days from sale. That included a Holiday weekend. I believe I will have to square up with the tax...

    Exactly 15 days... including Memorial Day Holiday. Well worth the wait. The bike arrived in perfect condition despite the shipping carton being speared by a forklift. To me it looks like I got very lucky. I think this is a really nice bike, well made and particularly well packed. Thank you George!!

    Hey everyone. I ordered a new Yukon 750Ltd yesterday and I am excited to begin my new riding experience! Any idea of how long a wait I can expect? Does stuff get shipped on weekends at all?
