    Change tires on HT1000?

    I got the 48-21 since I want endurance rather than high speed. I should mention also that I'm a pretty big guy at 6'2" and 250 pounds. Plus, when I'm riding I have a pannier full of gear, too. I keep a second charger at work so I can charge it when I get in to work. It is always ready before...

    Change tires on HT1000?

    I've topped 30 mph, but not very often. Frankly, I've been a little disappointed in the battery life. I have a 25 mile commute each way and the one time I did the full trip the battery didn't make it all the way. And that last mile was brutal! However, I may have been using too much power when I...

    Change tires on HT1000?

    Thanks for the replies, scout and Tom. Do either of you know the 2.4 will go on the same wheel I already have? I'm not very knowledgeable about bikes in general, so I'm trying to learn. Thank you, both!

    Change tires on HT1000?

    I got my HT1000 back in October. I'm looking to change the tires, though, because I strictly use my bike for commuting. The knobs are not good on the pavement. Has anyone found tires they like for this rig? The current tires are very nice Maxxis Rekon+ 27.5 x 2.8. I was hoping to go for...

    Yukon tires: 4" to 3"?

    I purchased Wanda Fat Bike Bicycle 26 x 3.0 Tires from Amazon. Installation on the Yukon wheels was pretty reasonable except one part at the end. Getting the rear brake to line up properly was a major pain in the rear! It took me a long time and a lot of fiddling to get the brakes to work...

    Considering the Yukon 750 for my first ebike. Need some advice.

    I went with something I could get off Amazon. I don't really know much about them: Wanda fat tires 26 x 3.0 at Amazon. They were sent in a big box because they aren't the kind that fold. I'll let you know how they are after this weekend.

    Considering the Yukon 750 for my first ebike. Need some advice.

    I would be shocked if you couldn't get 25+ miles out of your use case. For me, I ride 15 miles each way for work and I put the PAS on level 9 and leave my bike in 7th gear. This gets me to work fairly quickly here in the US. I've set my top speed at 28mph using the head unit on the bike. At the...

    Uphill throttle-only test of my new Yukon 750

    Yikes! I believe that is the issue. Even though we have 26" wheels, with the fat tires they perform more like 28" wheels. I'll try it out and see. Thanks for the input!

    Uphill throttle-only test of my new Yukon 750

    It's not exactly a thrilling video, but at least it's pretty short! :p And I have to say the bike performed beautifully! The hill gets up to about a 6% grade at a couple of points. I overlaid some GPS data on the video. Now that I did this, I realize my tire size is probably set incorrectly...

    Yukon tires: 4" to 3"?

    Those look like nice road tires, as well! Are they 26 x 3.5? Where'd you get them? I don't see them on Amazon. Do they handle well? How would they compare to someone coming from a regular mountain bike? What do you keep the psi at?

    Yukon tires: 4" to 3"?

    Thanks, Mississauga. Do you think the rear tire blew out because it was smaller? And it was the actual tire that blew out, not just the inner tube? Crazy! What brand of tires did you go with? Those look like good road tires, which is what I'm looking for.

    Yukon tires: 4" to 3"?

    Hi, Dan. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question. I am grateful for learning about this new product and I do wish VoltBike every success. Despite their delivery issues they seem to be selling a quality product at a very competitive price. And I'm glad to own my Yukon 750...

    Yukon tires: 4" to 3"?

    I'm mostly using my bike for committing and I'm not crazy about the fat tires. They don't handle too great. Has anyone tried to put in 3" tires instead of the 4" tires?

    2018 VoltBike Yukon 750 Limited unboxing video on YouTube

    It was not included. I mentioned that in my video. I had one available at home, though. If you've ever assembled furniture from Ikea you almost certainly have lots of these lying around.

    For support it seems like you get a better response to phone calls than emails. I know that sounds strange in the internet era but different companies handle things differently.

    The audio isn't great, but thought I'd share because there just aren't enough VoltBike videos out there. My unboxing video on YouTube. I think the link above will take you to YouTube, but I'm going to post the link directly below to see if that will embed the video here to make it easier for...

    Wait a minute. How fast do Voltbikes ship?

    I just received my Yukon 750 Limited today. I placed my order on May 29, it was ready for pickup June 18 but was picked up by YRC on the 19th from Blaine, WA. It rode one truck from there to Harrisburg PA where it was transferred to another truck on the 26th. This truck drove to Manassas VA and...

    YRC shipment tracking

    VoltBike told me the order shipped June 18 but YRC says pickup date was June 19 with a "due date" of June 27. On June 25 I received an update from YRC stating my shipment had arrived at Harrisburg PA, but then on the morning of June 26 I received another update saying my shipment was on the...
