    Hyperscorpion Motor or Controller Noise

    I know they don't manufacture the E-Bikes Tora Harris has designed. They're made (mostly) in China. One of the reasons I chose Juiced in the first place is that Tora Harris is a Chinese/American. He's kind of the "Jimmy Hendrix" of the E-Bike world in that one of his Parents is Chinese, and...

    Hyperscorpion Motor or Controller Noise

    Thats more than reasonable, I thought the bike would have been newer but thinking about it, 68 miles in 2 yrs may not be far from average for most. What makes this even more note worthy is that Juiced doesn't manufacture the Motor. If it's a Bafang, any warranty questions kind of point their...

    Hyperscorpion Motor or Controller Noise

    Nice! . . I'd bet Dollars to Doughnuts that the Planetary gears are making that noise. I've worked on this type of drive system many times, but not this particular motor. If it's a Bafang motor it's likely to have Delrin Plastic gears, meaning it will go to pieces slowly ( and possibly continue...

    To EBR, Where's my Draft Review?

    Thx Court, it's looking as if I may not have saved this Draft Review correctly or it may be tucked away within a Thread Reply (if that's possible). It turns out there aren't that many Forum's I'd have tried to save this Review, so finding it shouldn't be difficult. If I did save it correctly, I...

    To EBR, Where's my Draft Review?

    Thx for the Help on this Tom. I can answer YES to the first two questions. I didn't think it mattered which Forum page I'd started this Review on. I Did save it properly according to your qualifying questions, but I guess I thought I could locate a saved draft from my login page since it wasn't...

    To EBR, Where's my Draft Review?

    Hey EBR, I started a 10K mile review of the Juiced Bikes RipCurrent S about ten days ago. It was rather detailed and a bit lengthy, so I don't want to start over, just finish it. Where do I find Saved Drafts I've started. This one seems to have disappeared into the Either. It's also possible...

    Juiced Ripcurrent S Cassette Swap

    Yea, this guy says for a little over the $200 bucks (the cost of the Original Cadence Sensor issue) he can make this a "nice" bike for $700+ dollars and exclaims "We just replaced the Motor"! Then he proclaims there's no reason for a "Hub" drive motor except to save money. "Mid Drive" motors...

    Juiced Ripcurrent S Cassette Swap

    As I was saying, I've got 10K+ (10,000 miles) on this RipCurrent S and Motor in 2 seasons of riding. I'm in the Pacific NorthWest & it rains a Lot here. I may get 9 months of riding per season at most. I bought the RCS in Nov 2019 and didn't start with a tracking App until I'd put at least...

    Juiced Ripcurrent S Cassette Swap

    Appreciate the inputs . . . got a few tork wenches that read in nano newtonz & foot Lubs plus I've watched a YT vid or two on the "Freewheel" vs the other kind of casette'z . . . which is what I think this HG2000-Hyperglided+OptislickedOutCassette is. Sounds like my generic tool will work for...

    Ziponator! Hope ur Holidays are Florida . . ish and Happy New Yr's to you and yours! Got a quick question . . . I'd purchased the same CS-HG201-9, 11-34 tooth Cassette not long after getting my RCS because of some review I'd read at the time. I plan on changing Cassette's to possibly...

    Fat Tire Exploded while seating

    WoW, glad ur OK Dude! I was going to ask if there was more to be discovered. Again, it's valuable experience for those who are interested. And, BTW, I've NEVER overserviced my car's Air Conditioning System and had to deal with the expense of a burned out radiator fan that was forced to work...

    Fat Tire Exploded while seating

    Just visited VEE Tire Co's webpage for this tire. ALL of their Fat Bike tires are rated @ 8-20 PSI which is typical as you'd already mentioned. https://veetireco.com/product/fat-bike-mission-command/ I've been running the Vee Zig Zag's on a Tannus insert (rear only) for the last half of their...

    Ripcurrent S Replacement Chain

    Thx & Roger That! Makes much more sense, and provides good intel I wasn't aware of. And, that's a good price for the stock chain, will prob purchase when available & carry one as a spare. Am Not in a hurry since the bike is going thru an "A-Check" in my living room at the moment : / I'll...

    Ripcurrent S Replacement Chain

    So, if I understand correctly, your using the Stock chain and not the KMC e9 EPT from Amazon. And you have 500 miles on a shortened KMC. So, have you replaced the stock chain ? And if you've shortened the one your currently using, does that mean you've shortened the original or a replacement...

    Ripcurrent S - can the shocks be upgraded?

    Good Stuff ! . . . you've answered a couple other questions I'd forgot to ask : / I suspected that the Rotor's 6 hole bolt pattern may be (somewhat) standard but there's often not alot of shared standards w/ bikes. This would be Hard without satellite's ; )

    Tektro 203mm Brake Upgrade

    So there I was, looking at how worn my RCS Brake Rotors have gotten this season and wondering why Juiced didn't use Tektro's larger Rotor ? These 180mm brakes are minimal at best. Mine are getting pretty well worn even though I've only ever used Organic Resin Pad's And . . . was amazed how...
