    Should I keep the box?

    My CCX is finally here!! My wife asked me to recycle all the boxes and shipping material before she gets home (we live in a small condo with no garage). How long did you keep the shipping box? Do I need to hold on to it for the length of the warranty in case I need to ship it back? I know I...

    Affordable bicycle repair stand?

    I'd love some recommendations on an affordable bicycle repair stand that can take the 50-60lbs of an ebike. I don't want to spend the $$$ for the Park Tool if I don't have to, but also don't want to waste money on junk that won't work.

    Known Issues & Problems with Juiced Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Thanks John, your enthusiasm on this forum is awesome! I happen to be in Seattle as well. With all your spoke expertise, hard earned, maybe you could help me check out the tension and lacing when the CCX finally arrives (still no update there). Otherwise I'll plan to take it to a LBS for a first...

    What is the frame size? Wondering if this might work for my 5'4" wife.

    Known Issues & Problems with Juiced Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    After going back and forth and obsessively researching for over a year (and canceling a CCS pre-order due to unexpected vet bills), I kept returning to the CCX and finally pulled the trigger last Monday morning. I'm bummed that is has not shipped yet, since I was led to believe it would be to me...

    Juiced Releases new Electric Scooter

    I also don't get the appeal of a high speed scooter, seems like a death trap and not very comfortable. But they are apparently all the rage. The specs on the Turbowheel Dart appear better in every respect than the Juiced, and $200 cheaper...

    Anyone tried a Bolton Ebike in the wild?

    I just discovered Bolton Ebikes thanks to owner Kyle's video breaking down the supposed 750 watt motor on the Rad Rover. He also sells a seemingly well-spec'd fat bike (1,000 watt mid-drive, $2400). I'm curious if anyone has ridden one of these IRL. The price is quite tempting! Sorry if this...

    Brian's CCX Journal

    Thanks for the reply, Brian! It seems a shame to spend so much on a bike and then wrap it in saran wrap :( But I get that this is a preventative measure for you.

    Brian's CCX Journal

    RE: #10, is this really true? And is this an issue specific to Juiced? I want to ride all seasons in Seattle, and this gives me serious pause.

    Juiced Crosscurrent x - review rev. 3

    I am so sorely tempted by the CCX, it seems to have almost everything I could hope for at a great price. But I hate hearing that it may need fixes like velcro straps to properly seat the battery. I am not particularly mechanically inclined, and am very much hoping for a bike that will work well...

    It seems this is gone from the iZip website. Are people still finding it for $1700?

    Has anyone received their May pre-order?

    Bummer! What was the damage? Hope the replacements come quickly!

    Has anyone received their May pre-order?

    I just got the confirmation of the order cancellation. I wanted to point out two small things. The order title itself had been changed to "CrossCurrent S (650W) - Pre-order for Mid-June '18 × 1", but when I purchased this in April it was for the May pre-order. I think that is pretty sneaky, to...

    Has anyone received their May pre-order?

    Whelp, I am throwing in the towel and cancelling my order. I know the CCS might be ready to actually ship soon, days or weeks. But I can't have the $2k tied up that long with nothing but a few emails to show for it. I hope more patient people enjoy their bikes, and I hope Juiced fixes their...

    I Disagree with the Majority - My 2 cents

    My biggest concern at this point is how much I can trust them to help or respond in a timely fashion if an issue arises when I finally do get the bike.

    Has anyone received their May pre-order?

    I did finally get my update email 2 days ago, and they are supposedly waiting on 19Ah battery shipment on 5/14. I still think they could work on more transparency and better communication. I got 2 separate emails, one from the ticket I created, and one from the order itself. "We apologize for...

    Has anyone received their May pre-order?

    I'm starting to have second thoughts. The terrible communication from Juiced makes me nervous should any issues arise with the bike. I'm considering spending more and going to a local bike shop for peace of mind and ease of service.

    When did you put in your order, Chuck?

    Has anyone received their May pre-order?

    I haven't been so lucky. I've generated tickets for an update on my order, they said warehouse would get back to me, and it has been a week of chirping crickets.
