    Known Issues & Problems with CIVI BIKES Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Thanks. Just seemed odd that it was not fastened in place. This could result in wire fatigue, loose connections etc. I'll have to have another look to see how to solve the issue. You're idea works and is simple. Everything I do is overcomplicated and takes way too long.

    Cheetah loose speed control.

    I heard some rattling and found the electronic speed control was loose in the tank compartment. Not mounted, no fasteners. Is this normal on other peoples Cheetahs?

    Cruising Cheetah Style!

    It's a shame the cheetah triple clamps couldn't be molded to fit. I'm not in a hurry so I'll be researching forks to find the easiest to fit. Thanks for the response.

    Cruising Cheetah Style!

    I'm looking into similar forks for my new cheetah. I see some on aliexpress but, I'm not to keen on using that site. Where did you find the forks and are they air adjustable?

    Mines on the way

    I got the Black & leather version and I did assemble it. I found the front wheel bearings were too tight as were the pedals. I adjusted them, no problem since. I also added some "Stans" to the tires to help prevent the long walk home. Great bike. future may see a suspension fork.

    Brake light wiring

    The Cheetah is 48v. It has an existing headlight & switch that I can wire into for the tail light power. The brake light switching will need to be figured out using the existing lever switch, relay etc. The light I have is rated for 12 to 60v.

    Brake light wiring

    Unfortunately , I'm not an electrical engineer but, I am a tinkerer. The brake levers have a motor cut switch built in so that when you actuate the brakes, the motor stops driving. That's where I'll get the signal for the brake light. The negative connection is easy. The running light will be...

    I ordered some Stans for the tires. I'll be on the street 90% of the time and we don't have the dreaded goat head thorns in Virginia. I'm looking for a Leather rear rack pack rather than the saddle bags. Gotta have some place for all the survival gear. When I get the rack I can figure out a...
