    It's a geared hub motor. It has a freewheel.

    CrossCurrent S - New Model

    Where can you do better? It's not a 17AH battery like a power bank that has a few tens of watt hours, it has 78 18650 cells in it and over 800WH. You can get something similar from Luna for about $650 shipped: (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) but it can't deliver as much current, doesn't come...

    Powerful Fat Tire E-bike w/ Torque sensor from Juiced Bikes

    I don't recommend going from Juiced to Luna expecting better support. I have ordered parts - not bikes - from them and had a problem every time. On top of that, their support often gives attitude when you do have a problem. Up until now "Luna" bikes were just stock commercial bikes with a BBSHD...

    The other bike isn't electric, no.

    [CCS] Electrical "static" sound when applying front brake

    I get this too (I have the 715s as well). My other bike with hydro discs does this too. I think you just hear it more up front and they all do this.

    Caveat emptor: my experience preordering with Juiced Bikes

    They are not very good at answering but generally pretty helpful when you get a hold of them. Not excusing their behavior, just describing it. Keep trying at it. The website live chat has worked best for me. If you are after a discount/consideration I suggest trying during CA business hours but...

    CrossCurrent S - New Model

    Yes, I agree with most of what you said. They did say they anticipated selling out the first container from the start, though. http://prioritybicycles.com/ I have a bike from these guys, the Continuum, which was just an incredible value - gates belt drive, nuvinci hub, hydraulic discs, fenders...

    CrossCurrent S - New Model

    They really have a knack for not answering questions completely. So was the first container the only one that got 715s, or did anyone that made the late summer/early fall preorder get them? That was what the website said would happen, but this statement is ambiguous. I think most people honestly...

    CrossCurrent S - New Model

    The complaining totally stopped. It sounds like pretty much everyone with a preorder has a shipment now (I do, 20xx). I saw two containers on the Juiced Facebook. They had a guy's order slip posted with something like 2250 (none of his info anonymized - incredible - there was actually a comment...

    Custom Rear Bracket for CCS - replace reflector with tail light.

    Please keep us posted - I will likely do this but have it done for me so would like to get it right the first time. Did you do this in PLA, ABS, Nylon?

    Replacement Rim for crosscurrent

    I see the 20" cargo rim but not the 29er CC rim.

    Juiced CrossCurrent S initial review

    I believe the USB power is disabled since it was draining packs. I suspect you might be able to tap into the headlight's power with the right adapter cable and voltage regulator. This seems like the kind of thing Juiced might eventually offer, but given how overextended they are, this might be a...

    I was puzzled by this too. I found this - https://www.electricbike.com/lace-hub-motor/ - sounds like it's not uncommon.

    CrossCurrent S - New Model

    About ready to cancel. I keep getting assurances it's about to ship but get jerked around by the reps at Juiced. I am not impressed. If all they have is "we're the cheapest with this capability on the market" I suspect they'll quickly find a lot of people with $2K to spend on an ebike have $3K...

    Maintenance tip/reminder

    Length shouldn't matter too much. I think they switched to TD or Sapim recently. I would be frustrated too but it might be worth asking. http://www.ebikes.ca/shop/electric-bicycle-parts/spokes.html Grin Tech sells motors far more powerful than even that on the HyperFat and they manage to get...

    Maintenance tip/reminder

    If you haven't - have them check tension. What often happens with wheels as they go out of true is that the tension becomes uneven on the spokes. If you're paying $10-15 for a true/spoke replacement, the shop is probably just turning a few problem nipples until the lateral runout (side-to-side...

    Powerful Fat Tire E-bike w/ Torque sensor from Juiced Bikes

    It was a reply to Rob Krull's visitor post at 1:48PM yesterday. No update has been posted to my knowledge.

    CrossCurrent S - New Model

    I see your point - but oddly, most, if not all, of the few pictures I've seen of CCS in the wild seem to be black ones.

    Powerful Fat Tire E-bike w/ Torque sensor from Juiced Bikes

    I don't blame you. Based on assurances from Juiced my CCS will ship next week I have kept my order open. I would have preferred a hyperfat. I am toying with the idea of a QBP (e.g., Surly) fatbike + BBS02/BBSHD if we have a snowy winter, and/or if Juiced fails to deliver on their second...
