This is a problem with all bikes, it seems nowadays that even minor repairs are impossible for many folks. I have a neighbor who has a high end e-bike that was “broken” all last summer. No bike rack and not enough room in the car to take it to the shop who had a two week wait . So one...

One of Bolton’s recent videos compares two bikes that are similar but with two drive types.

It’s different, more involving bit like driving a stick shift over a slush box.

Better components and assembly, performance wise (my Rover had the 35A controller and bigger motor) pretty much the same.

Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra

That's what I did, the missus would have been pretty ticked off with me if I had spent $6K on a toy and it sat collecting dust. My also senior cycling buddy did the same thing. "Happy wife happy life" Rad resale prices are good here in PNW A week ago I sold my upgraded well maintained Rover...

Biktrix is very responsive . The owner of the company often responds on EBR

I have the juintech cable/ hydraulic calipers upgrade from Bolton, wasn’t that impressed but after bedding in they are an improvement over the tektro mechanical . I am 170lbs. IMHO to get better response the cable housing is also a limiting factor. You need non compressible housing.

I had exactly the same thing happen , the lever made a weird noise . At first I just thought it needed some grease.

Thanks Roshan

Not on the Biktrix web site, but found it in the full DPC-18 manual. Lights are automatic, it's really grey here and guess it was just dark enough that they turn on.

About 2 secs after turning power on, lights come on and stay on. I can turn them off with the button. Then next time I power up it does the same thing. I figure I must have accidentally "fat-fingered" some hidden setting somewhere. It's not in the basic settings. Not a big deal, the lights...

My current Rad has the Bolton Upgrade, although it's capable of 1500 watts or more, I have it set to max out at 1200 watts or so. More than enough for me. The Biktrix current limit is set to 30 amps, thinking of moving it down to 25/26 amps to restrict it to about 1200 watts. Is reducing that...

Yes was able to back up everything, looked at the settings didn't tweak anything yet. Didn't examine the torque settings yet different program required, I have it, but didn't bother with that yet.

I was able to get it to work, COM4 (no space) 1200 baud (it sets itself).

Yes I read that, but he says "Plug in the battery of your e-bike (and turn it on)" . The battery has no ON button and the key only mechanically locks the battery. Thanks for all the suggestions, will try it again tonight.

Wanted to read my Ultra settings and back them up, no changes needed at present. I have my USB cable, it seems to check out . I show a COM 4 port , software is loaded but but it's not seeing anything (greyed out). Cable plugs in OK. So the motor controller is probably not powered up. How do...

Looking at a pic of the current RoverI can see what u mean. Brake light needs to be about 3 ins higher . With the optional rack which comes with an extension cable to relocate it doesn’t, have this problem. Rad should consider a taller bracket for the stock install. Would take no time at all...

If you do let the smoke escape do not use this.

Sounds like you have gained some expertise and have a facility to build batteries. I am a bit more cautious . Working with reading glasses doesn’t inspire confidence. OSHA says anything above 50 volts is potentially lethal, there is some major wiggle room in that. If u look at Biktrix...
