@america94 Absolutely stunning bike. Thank you for all your time and efforts for sharing. I look forward to more posts and updates from you. I'll have more comments also, but wanted to just a quick thumbs up for now. P.S. What is your wheelbase length from axle-to-axle in millimetres? Just...

I second that... Voltbike customer service is great! My power cutoff on my brake lever was sticking, and they set me a new replacement right away also.

@Joergen8 thanks for the great work, time and effort! Very informative.

I am pretty sure @Lost inadvertently received 2 long *rear* fenders, as opposed to 1 short front fender and 1 long rear fender. Looks like it fitted nicely, but dangerously close to the ground. Just be careful going over bumps!

@Lost I don't understand. Your front fender is much longer than regular fenders. I wasn't referring to your installation. It just look really long to begin with. It covers around 1/2 of your tire. Where did you buy it?

@Lost Your front fender looks really long. Is it a custom mod?

I was travelling in Ottawa, Ontario, and saw a lot of regular Fat Bikes in the trails/bike paths. I see more fat bikes in the late fall / early spring season. Probably due to the snowy slushy, muddy wet conditions. In the summer, I only see a few fat bikes. I also have the Voltbike Yukon...

@Ian in Alberta It is very easy to change the settings. Just double-click quickly to get into the setup. As you page down the menus, one of them require you to enter a password. For my Yukon 750, it is "1919". It opens a new set of advanced settings. Be sure to write down the original...

@Ian in Alberta If you don't know already, you can change the PAS from the default 1-5 to 0-9. I prefer 0-9 PAS because it is sometimes useful to have 0 PAS to disable the motor in a crowded area, and 9 PAS increments are more precise.

@Ian in Alberta From my experience, the battery indicator is not linear. See my post here: https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/new-voltbike-yukon-750-spotted.8120/page-7#post-99807 5 bars: 100% 4 bars: 60% 3 bars: 30% 2 bars: 10% 1 bar: 0% 0 bar: ? don't know, never been...

@pxpaulx Thanks for the tip. Another tip I saw on YouTube was to leave your wheel & tire out to bask in the hot summer sun to soften the rubber.

I would just say the battery design is an important consideration for "future-proofing". I know this Voltbike battery design is new and very popular, so it should be around for a long time. For example, Juiced Bikes uses the same battery type. This design has 2 types that are not...

Update: Thanks @Voltbike for revealing a pre-release picture. I like it. I think there will still be some minor changes. There will be front and rear lights. Probably more decals as well. I believe this will be the "Voltbike Elegant" line. @Voltbike also said the price will be in the...

@Cargo Bike Trailer Josh That looks good. How did you secure it? Did you just use the existing 2 screws from the front fender?

Does anyone find it difficult to remove the 26x4 Kenda Juggernaut? My Yukon 750 comes with a 30 TPI wired bead, and it is stiff. I attempted to rotate my tires because the rear was wearing faster than the front, but my standard plastic tire levers were not strong enough for the task, so I just...

Great! Please give us your thoughts (hopefully with some pictures) after you have them installed. I wonder how difficult it is to install these. The rubber looks pretty stiff.

Wow, US$549.99 on Amazon.com! Is there tax on top of that? @mrgold35 Does that sound right? Perhaps the "Street Price" is much lower?

Has anyone tried these on a Radrover or similar? They are 26 x 3.0" , US$44.50 for a pair (2 tires) + shipping, etc. There are several sellers of these "Beach Bum" tires on eBay. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists)

@BVC Does your upcoming ebike light have a horizontal cutoff like automotive projector lights?

I look forward to this, but hope the step-through design is not too "nerdy". I just really want a "normal" looking bike... regular tire size, non-foldable, stealthy geared hub motor, 48v, and lighter weight that is readily available to Canadians, and not too expensive. Even without suspension...
