Hi gang, I was wondering if any of you get leg cramps during the night when you’ve ridden during the day… On average, I’m on the bike about 1.5 - 2 hours when I ride. I occasionally get hamstring cramps at night (sleeping) which are sometimes a bit shocking and they can takes about 15-20...

Are clipless pedals out of style or is it an ebike thing? I don’t see many (any?) of us using them. I was never much of a fan, but I did use them for a while back in the late 1990s and early oughts.

OK, gang. What’s the deal here? I was looking at the RadRunner (not the “Max”) and it’s a single-speed hub drive. I realize this is supposed to be a cargo bike, but I don’t really understand how this would work in practice. It’s a bike, after all. Maybe my thinking is wrong. Is the motor...

Hi folks, I’m starting this thread to help folks find stuff for their Juiced bikes since Juiced went kaput last year and is now (hopefully) rebuilding under Lectric’s ownership. Please add to your sources below, if you care to. It’s tough keeping these bikes going without the brand’s access...

Hi gang, This new RideWithGPS trip planning feature might be of some use. It’s available for all users. I know some/many of you use RWGPS. FYI, I haven’t tried it yet as I haven’t done any planning with RWGPS. Their map overlays have been very useful for me for my local riding.

Bought Fättie about 6 months before Juiced went under in 2024… Is anyone (else) still putting miles on their RipCurrent S? I just rolled over 3000mi today, which is not bad for a year and a half, with about 2 months of downtime from needing to get parts, etc. Due to failures, I’ve had to...

So… When I asked about solid state a while back I got crickets. I wonder if anyone will chime in here regarding LiFePo4: I’ve been reading up on lithium iron phosphate (LiFePo4). This technology seems far less prone to fire danger than current lithium ion batteries. I know a guy who built a...

Hi gang, Just a heads up, FYI. No association here with Velowave other than I just bought something from them that was properly delivered. Velowave is getting rid of their remaining Juiced stock… This could be an opportunity, but of course only if you want to get in bed with a failed bike...

Hi folks, I see the following frequently. On another forum, it was noted that A.I. bots (or should I just say A.I.s) were putting a tremendous load on that forum. I wonder if the same is happening here? I was just wondering if I was alone in seeing this (could be a networking problem for me)...

Hi folks, I’ve been studying these Lankeleisi dual-motor bikes a little bit as I find them very interesting. I was wondering if any of you know/understand what is going on here at the crank / bottom “bracket”. Note, these bikes have front and rear hub motor drives; they are not mid drives...

Hi Gang! I recently contacted one of the ride mapping software vendors about integrating some sort of emergency button in their app. I’m basically talking about the need to contact emergency services in the event of a serious bike accident. The upshot of that conversation is that pretty much...

Hi gang, We are having an interesting discussion about some stuff Urtopia has done to a recent ebike for security and I thought this discussion of ebike security/theft protection/recovery mechanisms was worth its own subject. Started here...

Thank you new owners! The Juiced web site is back up and it looks like all the manuals and specs that used to be available for each bike are up too! This may or may not be helpful to some of you, but FYI. The main page mentions that the site is for informational purposes only as there are no...

Hi gang, As some of you know, I/we were left high and dry by the demise of Juiced last year. I’d like to replace the chain on my RipCurrent S (fat bike) as I clean everything up after quite a bit of riding. Any idea how I order a new chain? The documentation in the owners manual mentions the...

Hey, gang, I was wondering if folks here do the same thing I do. Namely, whenever I’m at rest on the pedals (coasting), my left foot is the one in front. Even when I stand up on the pedals, same thing. I’ll note that I’m right-handed, but in any sport where my feet have been perpendicular to...

Hi Giant fans, I was wondering if Giant ever made a fat-tire (4”) ebike. I was looking at Giant bikes after watching @RabH put crazy mileage and ride time on his Road E, and I got curious. Is/was there such a thing? I notice the Stormguard bikes (...

I was just about to post this to preserve this table for posterity before I saw the wonderful news about Juiced’s new owners (Lectric)!!! https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/new-juiced-bike-owners.57543/ But here it is, anyway, for posterity. Hopefully the Lectric guys will be able...

Is anyone working on solid state battery technology in the e-bike space? Maybe something in the 18650 cell size? I’ve been reading about this elsewhere and (pardon me if it’s already being discussed) but it looks like it could be revolutionary for us. I think lithium is great, but would love...

Hi gang, I tried searching around a bit, but I’ve been wondering why Specialized isn’t (still) making a fat-tired e-Bike. I think there used to be a “turbo” fat-tire model. While I’m on the subject, do they still even make the (unassisted) Fatboy model? I can’t really tell from web searches...

I realize this is mundane as hell, and it’s really just a rant, but it bothers me that every hair dryer in Wal-Mart is too powerful to actually use in a bedroom with a 15A fuse (like much of the world uses). That is unless you like tripping and resetting breakers. Fine… you want to tell me...
