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...

Hi gang, I wrote the letter below to summarize my thoughts and information on fat ebikes to my eye doctor who’s interested in going down the same route I have. I thought I’d post it here to see if anyone feels there’s elaboration/correction I should make. I express a lot of my fairly novice...

Hi gang, Does anyone have a clever way to transport extra Juiced battery(s) for long rides? I have a (final) RipCurrent S model, shown below, which came with the rack. I’d think that securing an extra battery to the rack would be good, but I don’t know a great way to do that. Any ideas or...

Hi gang, I just bought a used 52Vx15Ah Juiced battery as a spare. Does anyone know the cell configuration of these? I think this was the generation of battery that just preceded the 2022 introduction of the “G2” battery. I have the specs for the G2 (52Vx19.2Ah) battery, which has 84 cells...

Hi folks, I’m wondering if anyone has used Bafang’s internally geared hub (IGH) products? These apparently shift based on wheel-spin rates and are not controlled by the rider, i.e., there’s no gear shifter. I’m curious about the riding experience of using an e-Bike without a...

Hi again, folks, I bought the performance upgrade controller for my RipCurrent S (RCS) last year — the 12 transistor model vs. the stock 9 transistor — and installed it on my RCS. Recently it failed on me and I’m wondering if anyone has any knowledge/skills on how to diagnose and fix it. I’d...

Hi everyone, I started riding mountain bikes in the early 1990s. In recent years, age, weight, and real discomfort made me pretty much abandon riding as an activity. Last year, I bought a fat bike (Juiced RipCurrent S) and it has transformed my life. I am a true convert to the fat e-bike...

Hi gang. Just joined and happy to be here. I live in central Massachusetts and I own a Juiced RipCurrent S (RCS) that I bought about a year ago. I adore this bike. It’s been transformative to my lifestyle and I can’t say enough about it. Thank you Juiced (R. I. P., Juiced) for building such...
