Thanks! Appreciated

@hiboyofficial Where can I buy fenders and a rack

Thanks for the comment. Its been a work horse so far for my wife after we ran into issues with her regular bike.

I think the main complaint is about the brakes which is really a relatively easy upgrade. We have enjoyed riding it so far.

Thanks for the quality comment it will help people for sure. So far all I have had to do is adjust the brakes but I imagine you are right and the pads will go first. It's definitely a heavy beast. I wish the pedal assist was tunable but it's holding up so far. Cheers

I had some on my Salsa Vaya before I put the motor on it and found them to do the business. I think those were 180mm

I can’t do one that quick as I’m going on my hold. The brakes annoyed me tho so I replaced with Tektro quad pistons. Much much better. My wife has been using it everyday and likes it though.

​@@HighVoltageKitsNonetheless, I appreciate the quick reply. Enjoy your holiday.

@Lex_Lugar thanks. Appreciate it

Thanks for this. Have you had to adjust the brakes? Do you find it wants to keep steering during turns? What are your thoughts on the PAS? I'd like a faster engagement and stopping of the motor.

@@HighVoltageKits i adjusted the brake to have the back wheel brake smoothly and the front more tight to end the braking or stop right on the line . Im almost always on speed 9 or 8 and level 1 PAS so its slow to engage when pedaling but that is why i always start with the throttle and pedaling ,when im at 30 mph im just pedaling but its usually also time to brake again to not get hit by a car 😆 i admit i never tested it but i guess if you set it on speed 2 or 3 you will pedal easier and faster so PAS must engage quicker. I like the throttle ,very sensitive i can get exactly the power i need when i need it . Still have to test it in the snow and on the ice but so far i think it will work way better compared to the Gotrax i used last winter 😆

Thanks! Appreciated.

Good advice. What brakes did you go for?

TRP SPYKE they are a high end mechanical for fat tier and MTB costs $124.99 CAD ea from my bike shop @@HighVoltageKits

I don't see it as being upgradable like that mate. By the time you swap stuff out you are then in the range of a DIY bike.

Not yet. I sorted the brakes out tho.

​@HighVoltageKits I just put on cable actuated hydraulic brakes and it is night and day. The latency would be nice to fix...

Seems not and its set to 45kph. So not fast enough for my liking and not legal either.

Its pretty complete. I have gripes with PAS so I'm waiting to hear back. It's festival holiday in China so it will be a few days. I'll give a more thorough review after tweaking and more riding.

@@HighVoltageKits I think you've been spoiled by the torque sensors you've been riding lately;) With a Bafang hub I'm sure you'll get it tweaked to your liking. That's what makes Bafang so popular, the programability of their motors (as you well know). As good as it may be I'm hooked on DIY & mid-drives. I have a Dolomite ALX waiting on a conversion. For around the same price (I already have batteries) it'll get a Toseven or Photon (if they prove reliable) or an HD. I'm taking my time on this (my third) build to see what comes from your testing & to avoid the added cost of a divorce.

You may have a point. I put the DM02 back on with the latest firmware. Pretty impressed. I'll hopefully tune this Hub. No reason for it to be like this.

They supply a charger for the 48 volt battery.

Good still. I did change up the brakes though to hydraulic ones. Made a big difference.

@@HighVoltageKits Cool, thanks for the reply, did you try and get any support from the company, people critisize them for poor support, also did you find fenders as if I get one thts what I will be looking for, Cheers from Canada !

I appreciate your concern. I truly do. I declined to take part with the affiliate program they offered. There have also been lots of requests to look at budget options. This is one. I am not going to sugar coat anything. I have been offered these things many times in the past and said no. But its a Fatbike and I was curious as to how it would ride based on the cost. At least if I do it there won't be made up bullcrap about it to try and make a quick buck. Out of nearly 300 videos its the first time I have been sent a bike to review. Who knows it might be the last if they don't like it. If the brakes need adjusting after 50kms I will say that. If the tires puncture and look worn out after a short time I will say that as well. Now if in twenty videos time all I have done is product views they you can come on over and kick me up the arse yourself ;)

@@HighVoltageKitsI don’t know of any other e-bike channel on KZfaq as humble as yours and that’s what make it one of the kind. Affiliate links are evil. So glad this channel is not spoiled with this evil practice and I salute you sir for that.

I see your point but in this case the whole bike is heavy. These things I usually see getting ridden around mutli use trails and paths bymiddle age to older people that is not into aggressive all terrain riding.

If the bike does not last then I don't think it will be the hub that fails. I just got an 02 back on the bike actually. New firmware as well, so l will be taking a nice long ride out and update on that. Greg put it on the dyno with the ASI with quite impressive results so updates on all that as soon as.

@@HighVoltageKits Can't wait!

Man I wish I could say what's in the pipeline!!!!... No chance of boring. Appreciate the feedback. I am trying to attract a bit of a wider audience at the same time.

One of the things we wanted to do this year was to look at cheaper options for people that can't afford a $6000 dollar bike. So this is one. But I am not going to sugar coat it I still think the best bike is one you build yourself but if you don't have a one and you are on a budget things like this are an option. Reviewing stuff is not going to be a big feature here and never has been but like I said its a Fat Bike so I was genuinely curious. I get asked to do stuff like this all the time and usually its a hard no. But I was interested to see what you get with one of these and show other people. I declined to be part of their affiliate sales program whic was offering 6% per bike sold for this reason. You won't find me pushing things on people.

@@HighVoltageKits seriously I just wouldnt not worth it unless actual quality stuff you as well as I do know whats absolute junk by eye without even turning a wheel pretty certain on that....other than that your channels great and onto good things it will just take time as for trash like this....Absolute long and short term negative :/ if anything explore the supply of carbon frames and so on to build/punt yourself in your own branding far better taste to it as a lot of the chinese stuff component selected by component (obv alongside shimano stuff etc is excellent stuff. Trust me you are 100% onto something along with it a rosey future but it certainly ain't this leave this trash to that clown from ebike school.......

I appreciate your concern. But that's part of the point as well. I am going to push this thing hard and I will not hide it if there are problems because people deserve to hear that as well. The switches etc are the same company that CYC use. Its a Bafang hub. There will be a follow up and if its falling apart or the company won't refine PAS then I will state that. Lots of people will just do this to make a buck. I am more interested in exploring the section of the market and what it offers. We have some very cool stuff with the HV brand coming down the pipeline so rest assured this is not going to become a review channel.
