    Occasional clunking on RipCurrent - Bottom bracket?

    It's not the pedals, the sound is from the drive chain and happens intermittently when torque is applied to the crank arms.

    Occasional clunking on RipCurrent - Bottom bracket?

    Did the replacement wheel solve the clunking issues?

    Occasional clunking on RipCurrent - Bottom bracket?

    The clanking sound came back. I put the bike on a repair stand and rotated the crank arms but could not reproduce the sound. The clanking sound starts when moderate to heavy torque is applied at slow speeds as well as fast speeds when I’m really pushing he bike hard. It is very annoying...

    Occasional clunking on RipCurrent - Bottom bracket?

    The drive chain clunking was minimized after I wiped the chain dirt off the chain ring and cogs . I did not reapply lube because only used a dry rag to clean it. I will advise if/when the noise comes back.

    Occasional clunking on RipCurrent - Bottom bracket?

    I'm experiencing the same thing on my CCX. The noise seems to be coming from the chain/chain ring. The bike shifts fine. It seems to happen when I put pressure/torque on the pedals and then when I back pedal it goes away. Sometimes shifting to another gear makes it go away. This happens in...

    Electric Bike Lights

    I wired the leads in parallel with the stock lights from the controller on my Juiced CCX. The IQX-E needs a certain amount of current to operate. I am not familiar with the electronics of your bike. Perhaps another member can chime in.

    How many miles do you have on your ebike?

    Since December 2018 I'm closing in on almost 600 blissful miles on the Juiced CCX! :p

    Juiced Bikes CrossCurrent S Battery Information

    I believe the narrow format battery packs have the handle to assist in battery removal. The wide format battery packs (52v versions) do not come with the handle.

    Don't charge your bike battery above 80% and don't ride below 20%. Maybe, maybe not.

    I use a multimeter to measure the voltage directly from the pack. It is a crude way to do it but gives a more accurate reading. The LCD display on the bike gives a voltage about 0.8 volts lower than the reading from the multimeter.

    Don't charge your bike battery above 80% and don't ride below 20%. Maybe, maybe not.

    That's what I do. I keep it at around 50% and top it off to 100% before riding. That only counts as half a charge cycle, right?

    Charging to 80% without a Satiator

    Well said! I have been charging from 50% to 100% or 40% to 90% and enjoying the riding experience. I do not like the saggy motor response when the voltage levels drop lower.

    Charging to 80% without a Satiator

    I enjoy the power of a topped off pack on my CCX. Does it make a difference (longevity wise) if I charge from 50% to 100% versus 30% to 80%? Does that still count as half a charge cycle since I’m only adding 50% charge?

    Electric Bike Lights

    Check out the B&M IQX-E headlight. It has a well defined cutoff beam and a wide voltage range (6 - 60volts I believe). It’s rated at 150 Lux.

    New CCX - Love it

    Yes, a moustache style handlebar that is slightly swept back solved the same issue I was experiencing. I also installed a 45 degree stem to raise the handlebar height perfectly. The bar grips fit perfectly...

    Yet another CCX owner

    Thank you for the in depth information. ? Perhaps I’ll give it a try after the stock Schwalbes wear out. ?

    Yet another CCX owner

    Did you experience any problems with fitting wider tires on the CCX’s already narrow rims and would it be a safety issue? How hard was it to remove and put the rear wheel back on?

    New CCX Pictures

    I'm closing in on 500 miles on the CCX and so far so good (knock on wood). I got a Topeak pannier rack and Ortlieb front roller classics. I use the B&M headlight as the primary and the stock headlight I have hooked up to a separate switch to use as high beams to notify oncoming vehicles if I am...
