He was averaging higher speeds on the Commander Pro too. There are a bunch of variables that affect range besides he stats he listed, but for me personally I'll gladly lose a few miles if I have more power and hill climbing ability on demand. CP is still powerful, but it's still not a C40 motor, which still feels different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are high-speed street wheels. .02 plus eevees said in their review if you run the suspension with the buffer ring at the top of the suspension sliders, you lose a bit of suspension travel, but won't bottom out (not that they did with the stock suspension anyways) and hit the battery corners It's a non issue for a heavy street wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically any off-road rider who wants a long range wheel. Current long range ones are practically all heavy street wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For most stairs you're fine, only issues could be deep stairs, and if that's really an issue for someone they can detach the kickstand. 2. While waiting for my Grizzla fairing set, I cleaned and glued loop velcro and a $15 thin plastic board that I also velcroed, no issues with over 1k miles. 3. A good fairing set from Grizzla or Clark covers that up, although that isn't cheap you can also just buy the plate and ergonomic top for about $100. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CrabChampion Posted April 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2023 Big batch of EX30s arrived in Cali. Talks in the EUC Underground telegram says this batch has fixed charge distribution boards. Wheel is able to charge to full, not sure if they still have vampire drain when off. Also new EX30 color firmware that gives the EX30 RGB tail lights like the mten4 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nekko Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) I'd like to make some side panels for my EX3O (can't get the Grizzla panels on time for what I need) and I don't know the measurements I should use to make side panels that would cover both battery cases on either side of the wheel. Can anyone help me? I should clarify that my EX30 is waiting for me abroad for a road trip, still unboxed at my family's where nobody knows about wheels which is the reason why I haven't even asked them to unbox (elderly aunt type of situation).

Didn’t Marty make some side panels, or maybe this was for a (past) Master? I’m sure someone who owns one will oblige, it seems that few if any can get anything to stick to the battery boxes, so you’re unlikely to be alone in this regard. It should be possible to make a rough estimate and cut a couple of plywood panels, though you may well need to source longer fixings in order to attach them. Metal screw strapping band with holes all along may also be useful for a temporary fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using some kind of silicone glue with great success on lots of my wheels so I suspect it might work even on the slippery surface of the battery cases. It's very gooey when just out of the dispenser but hardens after a few hours while remaining kind of springy. And it really sticks to surfaces powerfully. I intend to go from the North to the South of Vietnam and document on YT, putting the EX30 through its paces.

I've hit the kickstand going down stairs, only an issue with steep stairs. I've also hit the front corner of the battery boxes bonking curbs. Because of that issue, I'm more selective on which curbs to bonk. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just updated to the (LU) from my original SW version it was shipped with. I did have an oscilation starting in the mid to upper 30's (which had gotten better after re-seating my tire but never went away 100%.), which now seems to be gone! My tail light also changes colors...was pulsing Blue, now it still pulses, but color fades from one color to the next cycling thru them all.
