I'll ditto what AHICKS said. I have a RAD ROVER and two Biktrix ebikes. Have 2 hubs and 1 mid drive. The mid drive is a larger motor, so lots more torque. Better handling too. The cost of changing either the rear gears (freewheel) or front gear (chainring) should be less than $100, including...

UPDATE on new chainring: This new 36 tooth chainring is just perfect for around Colorado Springs! This week I made a couple trips down to Cheyenne Mtn Park, to ride the single tracks there. These are narrow, twisty, trails on the southeast side of Cheyenne Mountain that I have hiked in the...

UPDATE (sorry for the delay). The LBS looked at the wheel, agreed it's slightly out of round where the rim pieces connect. They tried adjusting the spokes, that made it worse, so they adjusted the spokes BACK. I was running the 26X4.8's slightly overinflated (they recommend 20 max, I was at...

Biktrix is located in Saskatoon, Canada. I've never been there but looking at a topo map, it looks pretty FLAT. A "hill" tops out at about 350 feet (100 meters give or take). I live in Colorado Springs, at the foot of Pikes Peak, our local 14,115 foot (4302 meters) "hill". I commute to work...

As a fellow HD owner, I agree with all you say! Especially the part about the crank - OK for cruising, not for hill climbing! Al Schlafli

THANKS, Delta. It works just fine. I thought my imagination was playing tricks on me. The magnet is nice and tight, so I was pretty sure it hadn't moved. You are the first to actually point out where the magnet should be.

1. See attached 2. Working on it... Thanks, Roshan!! Al Schlafli

So it seems I have developed issues on my rear wheel... 1. I thought when I first got my bike (it's now a month old) the small silver metal piece was aligned with the sensor on the lower left frame. Now it seems like it is about 3/4 inch (about 20mm) towards the rim. Should I move it, and how...

I had a Rover for a year, and then upgraded to a Biktrix Juggernaut that came with 4.8" tires. I think these wider tires are a little quieter, and offer a much smoother ride. More important, the wider tires don't "self-steer" as much as the Rover tires did. Our streets are crowned quite a bit...

Should be an awesome bike! Any idea how much weight the rear rack will support? The geometry of the rack scares me - it looks like I couldn't haul a pillow on it!

I have a Juggernaut Classic HD, with the"SuperFat" (4.8 inch) tires. Initially there was a 10% difference between the odometer and my GPS. I spent much of yesterday's ride adjusting the wheel size in the DPC-14 until the distance traveled delta could be reduced. Setting the wheel size to 30 (!)...

You could also use one of the smart phone apps, like strava or map my ride. Course, there are pitfalls there too, smart phones are pretty expensive, and you have to remember to start the app. etc etc etc.

I recently switched from RPB to Biktrix. The DPC-18 LCD screen that matched up to there motors has data that you can reset via a key combination. - Nice! Al Schlafli

Common problem. Hopefully it failed while in warranty? RPB sent me a new wheel. Al SChlafli

Food for thought, Fred.

After four brief (<3 miles) rides... Build: - Frame: I ordered the large frame, after discussion with Roshan. I am 6' 2", with 30 inch inseam. Tall, but short legs. If I raise the seat to extend my legs properly when pedaling, I'm on tippy toes when I stop. - 26X4.8 tires - BIG tires! May...

When I am not riding, the bike is either inside our computer store, or inside my house. Yeah, the silver definitely stands out! I got their "standard" for the HD - the 4.8 X 26. I ride everything from pavement to gravel (mostly decomposed granite) to rough and tumble FWD roads, that can be...

I didn't want Black, because, everyone has black. Now that silver... it looks great, and already I have had great comments on that color!

So Santa's Big Brown Sleigh arrived yesterday, and the driver drug to the door of our computer shop a big cardboard box from Biktrix, with one end open and the front struts dangling in air. OH NO, I think to myself - this box looks like it was drug behind the truck the last mile or so!! We...

As of this morning (Friday 24 Aug) the bike is in Denver! Hopefully delivery will be Monday to Colorado Springs.
