    HEB ALLSCAPE Tires

    I've put my first 100 on these 26x4's, and have to say they're my favorite to date; completely silent, I only hear my motor and wind even at 35mph, and have great traction. A worthy upgrade

    2023 - 48V & 52V 60Ah Batteries hit e-bikes for 100 mile range on throttle

    "The Beast" (Aniioki V7 Dual Motor 26" fattie) arrived yesterday. Assembled it, my back will never recover... The battery on this thing weighs over 30lbs. Methinks the 1500w front wheelset weighs the same, and that front brake...WTAF? It's like a minimally hollowed out thick piece of plate...

    2023 - 48V & 52V 60Ah Batteries hit e-bikes for 100 mile range on throttle

    I'm weird: it's not the range I'm interested in (though I am somewhat) as the power on board to run stupid s*it like lights and sound. Also, it is hilly here (PDX) and I'm huge at 6-6 and 230#, so the dual motor thing will be fun to try. There's a local couple that tandem on a dual motor...

    2023 - 48V & 52V 60Ah Batteries hit e-bikes for 100 mile range on throttle

    Ordered an Aniioki V7 dual motor just a little over a week ago, will report how this goes...

    Is there any Ebike for a 6"4' Bigger guy?

    Following this thread, 6'6" and the struggle is real... Currently have a 'cheap' XPremium set to max, but the geometry sucks. Needs include fat tire, lots of battery, and would be nice to move to full suspension, possible belt/igh on the next go-round but know it won't be cheap

    Got an Lectric Premium last week - in Central tx- Howdy ;-)

    Hi there, and welcome! We have two XPremiums since March, now heavily modified. They've worked more or less flawlessly, but have their warts (everything is a compromise, y'know) Mods: Lots of electrical, such as locking throttle w/voltmeter, turn signals, LOUD horns, a real DOT headlight with...

    XPremium Kickstand, Center stand options

    No, still an issue. I have a stand for a grom (small yamaha) which seems beefy enough, but have yet to sit down and machine an adapter. In the mean time, we make sure to set the bikes next to something to keep them from falling over (even each other).

    Nasty decals

    worse come to worse, use an eraser wheel; they attach to a drill motor, and make a huge crumbly mess, but the stickers will be toast. I used a couple to remove the big decals from an RV, stickers will be no big deal

    XPremium Kickstand, Center stand options

    Ended up cancelling after getting product details; bottom bracket mount points between the two bikes are different; S73 is well forward since it part of the frame ahead of the trailing arm suspension. What this means is the 'Y' leg spread of the stand when retracted will clear the fat tires...

    XPremium Kickstand, Center stand options

    Thanks for this, ordered, will report if it works or not!

    XPremium Kickstand, Center stand options

    Interesting idea, though the bike has 3" tires rather than 4", and the bottom bracket mount problem would have to be solved: there's a company duluth-cycle.com, that has an adapter plate for fatty's that is made from milled aluminum which is $50, seems like a lot for something I can cut and...

    XPremium Kickstand, Center stand options

    Of all the mods and things I'm doing to these bikes, I'm already seeing the silly little side kickstand is inadequate. Loaded up with cargo racks and eventually the junk they will carry, I can see future expletives especially where uneven ground or soft soils are involved but I'm not even sure...

    Xpremium: Power tap for accessories

    Solder + waterproof shrink will be my fallback if I can't get OEM-compatible connectors, totally not afraid of getting my hands dirty so to speak, but reluctant cutting into a brand new bike's harness when we've not done the warranty shakedown, ya'know... Assuming someone here does not pop off...

    Xpremium: Power tap for accessories

    I've used WAGO's quite a bit, great for protected places, but not water/dust proof. In particular, the dust where we go is alkali and when it gets moist it eats copper like nobody's business, then there's the beach so you have salt to deal with which is nearly as bad. What I'm hoping to do...

    Xpremium: Power tap for accessories

    Have yet to see a thread for doing this on an Xpremium; adding an 12V converter and 12v accessory bus for a phone charger, led lights, radio, etc. Does anyone have a lead on the battery connector? The auxiliary battery connector does not look like an XT60, Dean's, nor an Anderson, instead it...

    Electric Bike for Really Tall Riders.

    Build quality looks somewhat decent, and me being 6'6", and most anything out there is seriously uncomfortable... Just wish the tires were closer to fats, sand and playa is important. Really, on 36's, plus tires would likely be a similar footprint and work the same as fattys

    Electric Bike for Really Tall Riders.

    After some more digging, https://bikerumor.com/is-the-dirtysixer-36er-ebike-the-worlds-largest-electric-bicycle/ pegs them as Vee Trax Monster's which are 2.25"

    Electric Bike for Really Tall Riders.

    Hard to judge proportions, how wide are those tires? They look like pluses

    Watt wagons Helios (super commuter)

    Most of my experience has been hardtail manual (fat), fs manual (mountain), and a one-lung trail bike (250cc, fs on steroids). The latter is the most fun, but can't take it many places, can't carry crap (other than a backpack) and is HEAVY to load/unload. We're looking to reduce our travel...
