The Marinsult is a DIY Ebike project that never worked. The front suspension hits the front tyre which means although it is super fast with a throttle and powerful motor, it can't do jumps! So the ultimate upgrade was adding the best downhill mtb forks to the bike to unlock huge bike park jumps and high speed climbs.
Legends!

Error 21H is a simple one, it's the magnet on the back wheel not aligning with the sensor on rotation. So it's throwing up Error 21H because it can't see the speedo working. 👊🏻 Got myself a custom built Stanton Slackline with a kit strapped to it! 💯🔥

If you ran a 26 rear wheel, the mullet setup would decrease the rub and increase the slack.

put 26's on there and the tire will not rub and less likely to hit cause of suspension.

go 26 inch front and back, should help with clearances and also make it look even more dorky, which is obviously the goal

Get a pair of 26 wheels and you can use more travel on the forks and eliminate rubbing on the back wheel.

@armandhammer2846 3 ай бұрын

Just put 26" front& rear. You'll gain what you need up front, plus put the rear proper like it should be. It'll ride just fine and your less likely to bury that front tire into the crown (don't worry about the battery), of that fork. Cuz you'll find out quickly how quick that front end will stop when it catches knobs on the crown. 26 will buy you space. 27.5 you'll get a new face..

If you added a switch bike conversion to the front wheel it would become 2 wheel drive!

surely modify the battery so its more out of the way, could get a more modern battery thats smaller with the same specs, or does that defeat the point of this beautiful monstrosity? you could go the other way either and run 230mm ish with the single crown attached only, what could go wrong?
