    Greetings, another newcomer here - CCS hopefully on the way soon

    Large Silver - they've got the money, and I've received confirmation from them for it and the order - which also states "in stock". Time for an initial "what's up" inquiry, I guess.

    Greetings, another newcomer here - CCS hopefully on the way soon

    Well - I'm exercising patience. Coming up on two weeks, and my listed as in-stock bike has not shipped. Many ebike vendors are overwhelmed, sales volume-wise, I think - which is good.

    Three months with CCS: Good and Bad

    My apologies - I was the one who mentioned Stromer. I meant no offense. There's a lot to be gained by fortunately having so many engineers in the e-assist bicycle pot. I hope it leads to some design standards, as it's a bit of a "wild west" right now (and some really shady businesses and...

    CCS Tire Upgrade: Schwalbe, Conti, Maxxis...

    How about their new pinion drive bike, the 600, with 47mm 650B tires? https://www.prioritybicycles.com/products/the600 That super-wide range pinion drive with a added hub motor might be pretty sweet. My current ebike is a Priority Eight, and the tire size / clearance has been less than I'd...

    Three months with CCS: Good and Bad

    jinim, I think you've mentioned them before, but the use of velcro straps is common for the bottle-mount battery systems, as are unfortunately melted contacts. Some systems, such as the shark bottle-mount pack, double up the contacts and there are still issues, especially for those drawing max...

    The +$300 19.2 AH 48V Battery Has Been Replaced by the +$600 19.2 AH 52V Battery for CCS, RCS

    Thanks John - a question on your 21AH battery, is it 48 or 52 volts (nominal)? On my current ebike, I use a pair of 13.6AH 52 volt shark packs. On the long hauls I carry both.

    The +$300 19.2 AH 48V Battery Has Been Replaced by the +$600 19.2 AH 52V Battery for CCS, RCS

    As a newcomer, I'm confused at what battery capacities are truly available from Juiced. I'm mostly interested in the 2018 model year downtube fitment batteries, but prior year / other model battery size history / compatibility knowledge is good ... I see mention made in various places 8.8 12.8...

    Howdy from Raleigh, NC

    Hi Sean - I'm also in the Raleigh area, and awaiting a CCS. Hi Gator - on your Dragon/Route 129 via bicycle question - although I'm a ex-motorcyclist, I never got the change to ride it other than couch-ridding in via the YouTube videos. It's not a road I'd want to take my bicycle on because of...

    Greetings, another newcomer here - CCS hopefully on the way soon

    Thanks all. LS3Miata, speaking of the Bafang Ultra, I came really close to buying a FLX Blade. I also lusted after a one-off Rodriquez / Rohloff / Ultra built, way out of my price range. The Ultra motor is awesome, albeit seemingly not widely accepted / supported. I hope the rest of your Biktrix...

    CCS owners who have changed the length of your chain

    Hi - new CCS purchaser (not received yet) - I've seen the chain drop topic here a few times, and have been wondering if/why a long cage derailleur is needed in this application. I'm not positive, but I think 21 teeth is within the capacity of short cage derailleur.

    Greetings, another newcomer here - CCS hopefully on the way soon

    The CCS will be my second electric bike, the first being a Priority Eight mid-drive conversion with a Bafang BBSHD. I've been reading the threads, looking for potential trouble spots - thanks all for all of your provided experiences. I expect there will be some issues, and hopefully am well...
