The position is quite relaxed, with a very open cockpit. As you can see in the video it's much easier than standing on a motorcycle. I'm 6'3" and I'm not hunched over at all, just leaning forward to counter acceleration. You stagger your feet so you can move your upper body, along with moving...

This is my new CRAnger, but my builder is making more of them and calling them a Quasar Lithium Commando. It's a ridiculous scooter type thing modeled after a Kuberg ranger. Custom built frame by Manny Guerrero out of a CR80R with adult size springs, 20s8p molicel P42A, custom built battery...

Cool, I look forward to seeing them.

This is amazing, any chance you might want to build another? I've got some battery upgrade money around, and this is the best setup I've seen for my application by far, when I need the range I'm almost always on the road, and carrying a second stock pack is ridiculous. If you aren't interested...

Luna doesn't seem interested in being involved in a conversation they are not in control of... They should not be the exclusive distributor of anything. It takes them over a week to ship out a part, and that's after waiting months for it to be in stock. This is something EVERYONE on Amazon...

Compared to what? Where are the bikes that go 40mph with 30 miles range for $3,000 out the door. Ebikes are stupid expensive if you don't build them yourself. Although the Zero is getting to be a great deal now. Still, they are completely different bikes. You can't take a zero on bike...

Dyno runs are done at WOT with full acceleration though, right? That's the power used to accelerate through that mph, but certainly holding at that mph (say 20?) should draw less?

25 miles to 20% (Sur-ron miles, so minus 10%). And this seems to be about what everyone is getting in sport mode, regardless of riding type, on or off road, riding 20 mph the whole time or riding 40 mph/top speed the whole time. I have documented 35 runs all within a 2 mile range, all sorts of...

You can 3d print out of many different materials, but even the cheapest 3d printer should be able to print a box strong enough... The cells shouldn't move much in the box, and the box shouldn't move much in the frame, there shouldn't be much stress on it.

Interesting, is that a regular or an x controller (and does an x controller really make 20% more power, a spurious claim I believe)? I also find it odd it's getting the same top speed on a dyno, without wind drag or rolling resistance of the front wheel, somethings I've always suspected were...

After about 1000 miles I've logged every trip and how many miles I'm at when my battery hits 20% (I use it for work, so I pretty much do this daily). And it's 24, 25 or 26 miles, and it's 25 miles 90% of the time. (That's Sur-ron miles, so minus 10% and obiviously fractions of miles aren't...
