Yeah I'm not a big fan of these you have to get the pad in at just the right angle and there's not much room to get the second pad in. There is another pad that uses 4 individual pads and a pin/bolt that holds the pads in but I haven't tried it yet.

Totally agree. Big pain in the ass

I used thr NXT display to adjust field weakening

There is someone in SF that can repair the batteries so I'm no too worried if mine fails. From what I hear the A packs are more reliable than the R packs also and my SM has the A pack. It would be nice if the batteries could be upgraded like with 21700 or higher capacity batteries. I haven't heard of anyone doing that though.

They're the same I like them both the Warp9 looks cooler.

@@hadesomegamoto7639 thanks. I mainly go on trail rides in San Gabriel mountains. I have a stock 2024 Surron LBX (60v 40ah). Only thing I changed was the tube because got a flat on day 2. But, honestly think it’s because psi was at 30. Now, run it at 20 psi and no flats. Any upgrades you recommend for my activity or should I just leave it stock and just buy pads, tubes, and tires (as needed)?

@@Alex-oy6wb If you do a lot of trail riding and very difficult trails I would suggest getting a 16" rear wheel and run a rim lock. That's what I have for my dirtbike setup. I run 12psi, the Light Bee is so light that 12psi is plenty of air and gives better traction and shock absorption. To run it that low you need a rim lock though. Also the wheel will be smaller and wider you'll get more torque. Also for a stock sur ron I would suggest a larger sprocket like 54 tooth or even 60 tooth if you stay on the dirt all the time. It will climb steep trails much easier. Climbing is not one of the Light Bee's strong suits. Also get handguards, the full ones with the metal bar to help protect your brake levers if you drop your bike. Tusk D-Flex handguards is what I use. Also keep and eye on the headset bearings, make sure they are tight and don't have play.

@@hadesomegamoto7639 thanks… so keep the stock front wheel/tire? Also, which 16 inch wheel/tire do you recommend? Note: I heard the new tusk 19 inch ground wire e moto tire is good. Have you tried? czcams.com/video/lio2E5scy2A/video.htmlsi=lZzGzelKEgfQJBJb

If it's not copyrighted I use it =P I love Armored Core

He's just a really fast rider he races against the pros. Also this track favors bikes with fast turn in it's a really short track. The 65s have 12" wheels and short wheelbase so they turn in faster. Make no mistake 65s are fast with the right rider but they don't have a lot of torque so that's how I can smoke em on the start and keep up with them. They need to maintain corner speed. The flat tire I haven't looked at I'm gonna take a look at it tonight I have a new tube to put in it already. I'll probably post a video about it.

Yeah its terrifying riding this bike with this much power with these brakes and it messes me up riding the Redshift because that bike has fantastic brakes. I have to brake really early with the Light Bee and it allows others to outbrake me. I'm running Magura MT5 brakes with a stock sized floating front rotor. I've neglected upgrading to a bigger rotor because I would have to buy 3 rotors because I have 3 sets of wheels but I think now is the time to get the rotors. And yes the regen is a double edged sword. It helps you slow down and recharges the battery but yes it heats up the battery. So it's good to use the mechanical brakes if it's getting hot. But the Chi battery is incredible its taken everything I can throw at it won't overheat. I can only imagine how good the Max battery is.

Aww that sucks. That was a steep hill at least my bike is a lot lighter. Thanks for watching. Did you get it all sorted out?

@@hadesomegamoto7639 So basically my bike seized pretty far down that hill. I left it there and walked up to tell my dad what happened. Since my bike was still on that hill, I walked back down from the pits (this is what i’m doing in the vid), to get my bike. I waited by my bike till the checked flag was out and walked it up the hill so I could get a pin and not a DNF.

That's the way they told us to grid. I guess since there were less racers in this class they spread us out more. I didn't put the bigger battery because I was saving it for the main races. It didn't get me very far though... I didn't miss the turn I couldn't slow the bike down fast enough. The brakes are awful on the Light Bee it's terrifying trying to get it to slow down after a long straight. I think I'm going to have to at least get a bigger rotor soon.

219 chain is quieter but I hated it. It was high maintenance and didn't last long. Every time I ride it needs to be tightened and lubed. Also 420 chains are much easier to find and easier to install because you can easily break them.

@@hadesomegamoto7639 Thanks dude, exactly the kind of answer I was looking for. So many other people were like "either is fine" but it didnt seem like they had experience with both. I'm about to dive in on wiring up my Domino throttle, which is how of course I found your channel. Is there anything that can be done with the extra 2 wires and the microswitch? I have an EBMX-9000 controller.

@@JESSEverything I was thinking of doing something with the wires but I never did. I have an X-9000 now also and it works fine EXCEPT for some reason when I am calibrating it doesn't record the voltages right. I kept on trying until I got the voltages close to real voltages. If you can get the password you can manually input the voltages also. It's easy to check the min and max voltages using the diagnostic mode.

@@hadesomegamoto7639 What did you expect the voltages to be at vs. what they registered as? I did the throttle setup on my stock throttle as well as with the regen brake and one ended up at like 0.85 min and the other was like 0.86 and a maximum of 4.30 on both. The default settings in the controller before I did the setup was 0.9 min and 4.30 max.

@@JESSEverything It differs between throttles. That's why you need to do a recalibration.

Yeah unfortunately the straights not very long at this track. Just enough to open the throttle up for 2 seconds. Tough competition too.

Luckily since they came out with the phone app I never used this again. You'd probably have get the cable through KO.

Hmm interesting never heard of them. I'll check em out
