    Torque sensor seems optimized for higher gears

    Sweet! Would not even identify that as an ebike. You are obviously miles ahead with knowledge and experience. Lends credibility to your "silly" suggestion. Will give it a shot.

    Torque sensor seems optimized for higher gears

    Interesting. I remember seeing something somewhere from Juiced that turning on the bike with foot pressure on pedal could have negative impact on torque sensor calibration for that ride. Rolling bike backwards does sound a bit silly, but certainly will make for an interesting experiment to...

    Torque sensor seems optimized for higher gears

    @rjp7 After riding an ebike with cadence sensor only for a few years, I had a similar negative first reaction to the torque sensor when purchased CCS2. As you mentioned, torque sensor seems to deliver more power at higher gears. Seems counter intuitive to switch to a higher gear when going...

    Crosscurrent X headlight on/off toggle function not working

    @Dan Mulholland I'm pretty sure there is a setting in the display to always keep the light on, or toggle on/off with + as you described. You may have it set to always on. Been a while since I've gone into the menu, but I think you get in by holding + and - simultaneously for a sec or two, then...

    Cross Current S2 recomendations

    @wings02 I would also add that believe it or not, 2 years ago when I made my CC S2 purchase, there were not nearly as many viable e-bike manufacturers as there are today. At that time the S2 stood out to me based on features and price. I don't envy anyone trying to comparison shop for an...

    Cross Current S2 recomendations

    @wings02 Four years ago I put a conversion kit on my 20 year old mountain bike for running errands and work commute on streets and sidewalks. Was pleased with the results, but two years ago decided to get an S2. I was attracted to the extra class 3 speed, front shock absorbers, and torque...

    Seat Post diameter of a Cross Current S2

    Below is conversation I had a while back with Juice customer support. My seat post would gradually slip down. Google oddly enough recommended grease to solve slipping issue ... it worked. Jan 17, 2020, 10:47 AM PST I can see from the detailed spec sheet that the seat post is 31.6 mm. There is...

    Chain tensioner/guide after crash?

    Sorry to hear that but glad you came through relatively unscathed. Do you recall what gear you were in when the chain came loose? Were you shifting at the time? Just hit a bump?

    RipCurrent logo

    Personally I like the subtle branding on my black RCS2, and on other bikes I remove as much branding as possible. The thought being it might be a bit of a theft deterrent if a would-be thief does not know what it is they are attempting to steal. Along the lines I have seen other take by...

    S mode on RC-S?

    Think of S as "4" with special branding. ;) And of course there is R (racetrack) mode. Each successive step will deliver more power and hence use more battery. I tried out S and R when I first received my CCS2 but since then have never gone beyond 3. More than adequate to get me in the 25 -...

    Known Issues & Problems with Juiced Bikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    @Tawn Midkiff This is a long shot, but since you mentioned the issue with display resetting to random values, perhaps it is setting your max assist speed to 15mph and/or turning off torque sensor? In which case installing the new display Juiced is sending might resolve the issue. I don't...

    How does the 1up USA bike rack work w/ RCS fenders?

    @Doug Goodenough Hate to show my ignorance, but I have never seen convex face plates like that before. Look pretty bad@ss, but what is the intended purpose?

    My battery is stuck won't disconnect!

    I have a CrossCurrent S2. Coming up on a year. My second e-bike. Love it. Especially when cruising comfortably in the upper 20mphs. Biggest complaint is seat post shim. :rolleyes:

    Yet another CCX owner

    @linklemming Makes sense. Not a big throttle user either, occasional short burst, usually only if showing someone the bike capabilities. Cheers.

    Yet another CCX owner

    @linklemming I second your thoughts on seat post shim (have also been using grease) and stock grips. My CCS2 came with the throttle mounted to the left of the display and I had considered swapping positions as my intuition was the throttle would fit underneath the display. Your picture...

    CrossCurrent - need REALLY upright riding position - advice before purchasing please!

    @wrangler6061 If your current setup is comfortable for your back situation, have you considered just putting an electric kit on it? I installed this on my 20-year-old Diamondback about 4 years ago and have had no complaints...

    CrossCurrent - need REALLY upright riding position - advice before purchasing please!

    ... and @wrangler6061 I am not mad at your current handle bar setup. Thoroughly impressed with your ingenuity. :cool: Not to mention your bike appears to be so perfectly balanced it can stand upright without a kickstand.

    CrossCurrent - need REALLY upright riding position - advice before purchasing please!

    I am 6'5" and have been riding a CCS2 XL frame since Nov '19. I wish there were a larger frame as I need to raise the seat post to the max line in order to get near full leg extension on the down stroke. Also asked about riser stem/bars when I purchased and was told "no", similarly citing...

    Torque sensor performance

    @CityExplorer You have captured my thoughts perfectly. I have a bike with a cadence-only kit and often enjoy the zippiness over my CCS2 with torque sensor, although I have gained an appreciation for the latter. The torque-sensor was a factor in the decision to get the CCS2, and my initial...
