When we did the test we did add the rear rack. That rack is 1lb at best. Same Bafang 750 motor. The power of the aventure jumps off the line better. The juiced RCS is heavier and a little slower to 15mph.

Throttle only 0-15mph drag race on flat asphault has the Aventon faster by 1 bike length over the RCS. Same rider back to back the Aventon did feel like it was putting out more torque. My butt dyno tells me so.

The small/medium seat post is an odd 30.4mm no one makes a 30.4mm seat post. Can't figure why Aventon chose that tube size for the small/medium seat post. The Med/Large uses a 31.6mm.

Just got a Step Through Aventure and wanted to know if the front Zoom fork has a schrader valve to add or remove air pressure for proper sag. Anyone Know?

I wanted to start this thread just because I have both bikes now. First impression of the Aventure fat tire ebike is more critical of the experience when riding. Cadence vs Cadence and torque is a big difference when riding. The Aventure riding under 10 mph is not easy to do. Nothing feels...

I just got the Aventure Step Through fat tire for my wife. She loves the step through and the size. The cadence only sensor will take some getting use to. Switching from the Juiced RCS torque and cadence sensor then hoping on the Aventure makes you miss the torque sensor for sure. The cadence...

750 watt Hub drive has the power. I own 2 RCS for the last 2 years. Smooth power assistance and quiet motor. I have done green, blue and some black trails on mine. 65lb ebike is heavy on techy trails!

Small change from 52 tooth to 48 tooth but has made a big difference when trail riding. I can keep my cadence up easier. Running 10-15 mph on trails is a better experience now. Less effort pedaling. Only 1 chain link removed after the change needed.

Are there others out there riding their RipCurrent on trails. I love the single track trails. I have taken many drops that a fat bike should not do but so far the bike holds up well. The biggest drop was about a 40ft drop that took me 10 min to get the courage up to do. The bike was in Assist...

Rear Wheel is at the LBS and will have it all done by maybe next weekend. I have the spoke calculator done. The LBS is supplying the spokes, nipples and is lacing them.

I had a LBS damage two wheels Alex35 rims trying to install Tannus Armor. I have now replaced the wheels with Bontrager Line Comp 30 TLR Boost and gone tubeless. IMO just go tubeless Tannus Armor is a nightmare.

Where Motor power and Torq meet. 13-15 mph is the best speed to get the most out of the motor.

I did not see you listed the gear you were in when climbing in. Any steep climb gear down to 1st you need to keep the pedaling cadence speed up. At 3-15 mph mph you get the best power. 13-15 mph is the sweet spot for max power. The graph below is to show how the Bafang hub 750w and your 7% grade...

Front wheel hub and rims are in so I took them to LBS for lacing. This is a 36 hole setup front and back. Next week I will get the Maxxis tires and tubeless setup completed. Next up will be the rear wheel build.

Since I cannot find documentation to guide me I will be posting as I go through this process. First up I know I will have to build the wheels. No one sells exactly what I need which starts with rims. 26 rim 80mm wide 36 hole Tubeless Ready. Sun Ringle Mulefüt 80SL 36 Hole Rim For the hubs I...

I am starting to research new rims for my RCS. They have to be Tubeless ready rims. I would love to get rid of the 9mm qr front hubs and find something like 15mm setup. Has anyone a parts list for this?

I am back to trying the tubeless setup on the RCS. The yellow caps are now removed and the new tape is applied. Stans 8-10 oz of sealant in each tire. Tires are holding air for that last 2 days. Today I lowered the pressures to 17 psi and road for a mile to get the sealant coating the inside...

I reversed course last week. Canceled the RCST order and purchased the Aventon Aventure Step Through. Keeping the 2 RCS bikes we already have. I just liked the look and components of the Aventure fat tire bikes. The battery mounts inside the frame.

Just ordered the RCST in white for my wife. She is 5'2" and has had to live with the high top tube on the (M) RCS for 2 years. Now we wait til end of June for shipping.
