Grizzly chainring change out?

[Lammie200]

Has anyone been able to change out the chainring to a larger one? I am new to all of this and considering getting a Grizzly. Wouldn’t mind being able to pedal at higher speed. I apologize if this has already been discussed.

I have worked on the Grizzly twice. In my opinion it is a bike to avoid. Most of my bikes are 350W, have a three pound battery and will eat the Grizzly alive while staying under 40 pounds. That said yes you can install a larger chainring. Measure the BCD before ordering. I think is is 130 but confirm first. You will also need a new chain that is fit to size. The grizzly has a long chainstay so two chains of equal length may need to be joined in that case.
