If you fill the reservoirs with water you never have to worry about water contamination

I have 1,250mi. on my ultra motor and it's just as quiet as it was on day one. I do plan to open it up and re-grease it but I'm in no rush as long as it stays quiet. I see no reason this motor couldn't go for 10,000mi. or more

My ideal surface is pavement but on a dedicated trail through the woods. Next would be packed dirt or gravel trails. I like keeping the bike clean and that is hard to do on dirt requiring more chain maintenance

The difference when I switched out my knobbies for the super moto X's was incredible. If I'd known how good it was going to be, I'd have done it MUCH sooner

I can vouch for the Schwalbe super moto X tires after riding 1,000mi. on the stock kendas on my Rize RX, I got a set of the super motoX tires and wow, what a huge difference in smoothness, rolling resistance and noise (or lack thereof).. I don't ride much off road so I didn't need those knobbies...

No idea about durability but I would hope for the cost, the tires would last a long time. I see some schwalbe tires "value" priced but certainly not the super moto X with greenguard. I know some have reported getting 6,000mi. out of a set and that sounds good to me. I'm guessing pavement might...

The first pic appears to have less tread than the second pic but both show very minimal wear

My bike tires are identical front and rear. I did consider rotating the kendas and probably could have got 4,000mi. total out of them by rotating but that constant buzzing on pavement was really annoying and the high rolling resistance was a bummer. Really happy with the schwalbe super moto X...

The Kenda knobbies were indeed wearing well, 1,100mi. and the rear looked like it was about half worn out.. That said, I've read the super moto x lasting as long as 6,000mi.. They do have "green guard" whatever that is so hopefully flats won't be an issue. I also use flat out

I have a RIZE RX ebike that came with Kenda knobbies. I got the bike middle of last summer and rode with the knobbies the rest of the season. They were loud tires and it always sounded like an angry swarm of bees was around me. I just had my local shop install Schwalbe super motor X tires and...

Yes, the trail from Petosky to Charlevoix in MI. is not longer much fun to ride. A big section of the trail fell into the lake and they decided it was too expensive to repair so bike traffic is now directed up onto the highway.Sleeping bear dunes is by far the better ride. There's some new...

I don't like travelling far with the ebikes on the back of the car (hitch rack).. Bad weather, dirt/dust etc. are just some of the reasons. With our SUV all the road dirt seems to accumulate at or around the rear glass and hatch and that's right where the ebikes go. I will transport them short...

All I can say is this is such a shame as the care and thought put into these bikes was incredible. I hope Pushkar can find a way to continue his business as we would all benefit from such high quality offerings.

I'm sorry but I have to say again that since getting my ebike, I have gained weight. I used to ride an acoustic bike but my bad hip isn't getting any better so I switched to an ebike. I do NOT use the throttle ever but I'll admit to using "turbo" mode frequently. I will also admit that I am...

I guess I'm a dodderhead cause' I love me some GPS equipment

This is why I got a bike with the bafang ultra motor.. Sure it's "illegal" but it looks like any other ebike you'd see on the trails and it's a beast going up hills. I can't stop grinning when I ride it. No more hard work on steep hills with 80NM of torque.. I have no idea why this is against...

I just love the pure joy of not having to work going uphill.. My 1st ebike only had 80NM of torque from its middrive. My new bike with bafang ultra has 160NM of torque. The old bike made me work uphill.. Not the new one

FWIW, I never use the throttle either

I bought an ebike with the bafang ultra motor so I would NOT have to work! BTW, that's been working out great. No weight loss and no worries. I do give credit to those who can keep their assist in eco mode or whatever

I'm going from 44 to 48... Ali ring was junk unfortunately but hey, it only cost $1.86 :)
