I know Prodeco was thinking a year ago had concept bikes for both a police frame and fat tire with two motors…wonder why they didn't pursue that?
What happened to the Nitro line?
Peter, just to be clear .... no problem with a Nitro 48 volt battery in combination with a 36v controller and 350w motors for a 36v system? Did you notice an increase in top speed?I know you can because I was the first in the world to do it).
I have tried a Nitro battery on my euro BH Race and Jumper.

Thanks for the quick reply, Peter. Did you need a new charger for the Nitro battery, or are you able to use the one your bike came with?I have only tried it on a few trips. No problems. I know guys in Australia has ridden 1000 of km with no problems.
Yep. Topspeed increased from 30 kmh to 40 kmh.
Though the top speed drops 2 kmh pr bar you loose.
When I had 1 bar left the top speed was 32 kmh.
I am pretty sure a 36v usbike with a Nitro battery will reach 45 kmh as top speed because the motor has 350w instead of 250 in Europe.

Mike, while we do not make 26" mtn bike models anymore, the 27.5 cockpit should be a bit smaller with the EVO format battery, though can't confirm at least until I try the bike out next week when at the office when they should be back from Interbike.Thanks for the exciting new models.
I find my 26" Jumper about as large as I can handle.
It looks like the full-suspensions are all 27.5 or 29 inch tires.
Will the 26" still be available?
I'm at the time in life where I start shrinking; I used to 5'11" and seem to nearer 5'9" these days -- sigh...

I can confirm it's a very similar fit to the 26" Jumper. I had this same concern as I have a short 30" inseam. I was able to fit the bike well.Mike, while we do not make 26" mtn bike models anymore, the 27.5 cockpit should be a bit smaller with the EVO format battery, though can't confirm at least until I try the bike out next week when at the office when they should be back from Interbike.
+1That is a VERY LARGE product range!! Are they getting too diverse? Love the Nitro and the fact that they still have my Carbon with a standard 12amp battery!
