    No Zooz owners ?

    Doesn't look like anyone has bought one. I suppose it is a bit pricey ($2350 for the 750) but they sure get good reviews. Maybe a fun bike bike for around town.

    getting a slight rrrr rrrr from my Ultra

    Could that be the motor telling me "grease me please", which I haven't done in four years. Still with the nylon gear.

    Converted my Juggernaut Ultra to single speed

    No, not choice but some jackass rode my bike and destroyed my derailleur ,hanger and chain. At full power, he shifted from the smallest to the biggest gear at once and what a mess. Anyway, parts are back ordered, so to keep riding, I put the chain on the third gear and it works fine. Only went...

    Bafang Ultra Noise ?

    I have read a lot of comments regarding noise. Is it because of the steel gears ? My three year old Biktrix still have the nylon gears and it is nearly silent. I have replacement steel gears on the shelf but won't change them unless they fail.

    Swapped my 44T chainring for a 52T

    on my Juggernaut Ultra and I sure like the results. It went from a two speed to five unusable gears. I still won't use the lowest four gears but it did exactly what I wanted. Not sure on top speed but I'd say around 37. I personally don't want to ride a bike at 37 mph, so I'm guessing. New SRAM...

    New chainring for Bafang Ultra ?

    I'd like to go to a bigger chainring and was wondering where to buy one and what brand. OK, dumb question- Will I have to increase the length of my chain ? Going from 44 to 50. I also plan on a new chain and cassette.

    Review of the Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra

    They seemed to like it quite a bit. I have one of the first and I love it. Mine is close to 15lbs lighter than the FS model. https://electricbikereview.com/biktrix/juggernaut-ultra-fs/

    Converting a 9 speed to a SS

    I have a Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra and I have found in my riding environment, I shift because they are there and not because I need too. I was think a SS might work just fine for me. I'm big on simplicity, so this sounds tempting. What do you think ?

    Two person "Rickshaw" ?

    Does anyone make something like that ? I live in tourist town and know people who use a standard bike and I told them I'd check and see what's available.

    Battery and Charger woes

    I brought my battery into the house for the last few months with a 70% charge. I installed it on my bike the other day and it was dead. Put it on the charger for a few hours and the charger is also dead. I sure hope I didn't brick this battery. Will it come out of its sleep with proper charge ...

    2017 Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra

    With winter coming and no desire to ride in the snow, I decided to list my bike. I just haven't found the time to ride it, like I thought I would. Around 400 miles and in near perfect condition. Extras include two sets of tires, Ergon grips, bar end mirror, Tektro e725 hydraulic front brake...

    Who has had premature drivetrain failures with a Mid drive ?

    And at what mileage. I've been keeping an eye on chain wear and as of yet, nothing measurable. Keeping everything clean and lubed. I have the Bafang Ultra, which puts out a lot of torque, so I'm thinking if any bike will blow a chain, it's this bike.

    Street tire recommendation for Ultra

    I found out that I like riding in powder snow but not in slush and ice , which is the condition the majority of the time. So, I decided when spring comes, I want to switch to a smoother street tire. The noise with these Kendas is really annoying to me and everybody around me. I'm looking at...

    Replacement steel gear

    Read this today "Bafang has finally decided to abandon their crappy ass nylon gears on the Ultra Max. They are offering free steel gear replacements for anyone who purchased an Ultra Max with a nylon gear". Has anyone heard of this ?
