Hey Jack I love the SUR RON content! I have information to share. I race downhill mountain bikes, and I am very familiar with brake setup. The bigger Hope rotor along with the Shimano pads is a great setup. However, if you ever feel that you want to run the Hope calipers and levers, I would advise against it. I used to run Hope levers, calipers, rotors, and pads on my DH bike and was constantly bleeding brakes after each ride. I went with the Shimano Zee levers, calipers, rotors, and pads. They have been doing great for me. I love the way they bite and they are very low maitence wise. I look forward to more vids on the SUR RON!
*video starts with violent camera movement* My first thought: "yeah this is gonna be Rudnik" Rudnik: "Hello all the Jack fans here" Me: "begone foul beast"
OMG. Switch to the complete Hope Brake set up! Hope make the super powerful, highly adjustable, beautiful components. I've purchased 4 sets over the years for bikes I've owned.
Jack, you could do a video going over your dust bunnie collection and i would still watch it, you do a great job of being informative and entertaining at the same time.
Great to see a belt drive secondary. I did that to my Triumph Bobber last Christmas. Made a HUGE difference for the better. I haven't seen one yet for the Sur-Ron. This is dope! Has it been durable?
on my mtb to align the brake caliper so it doesnt rub i loosen it so it moves somewhat freely and then hold the brake in and tighten down the caliper without letting go of the brake, bike has to be off the ground to do this
JACK YOU GOT THE SAME COLOR ROTOR AS ME! 😉 You won’t regret the power from that rotor:edit you should up grade the rear rotor as well but go with the same size In the rear
Those adjustments made a big noticeable difference. That was one thing I didn't like about these bikes, although it performed well, it to me was just a bit still noisy, whenever it was rev'd up. Its not like you could come down your street unnoticed, people could still hear the noise of the bike, but now I can definitely tell a 75% noise reduction, even at lower speeds. But I think it should come from the factory like that. I want one, but i don't feel like putting time into setting the bike up for quieter performance, for 3500, it should already come that way. When you think of something being " electric " you automatically think of like a golf cart, and it being quiet. But this was a good video, and I hope someone from the manufacturer sees this, and make these modifications.
they have a chain on them because they are more durable for jumps and the surron is a electric “dirt bike” so they would naturally care more about durability that sound
My only criticism or concern is those spacers look like they might cause some extra flex making the braking feel a bit funny. I'd rather a solid plate that sits against the fork to space the whole bracket out.
I am surprised jack was okay with using those wee little spacers, they will definitely cause some play in the brakes, in the mountain bike world when you add a bigger disc/rotor you would not use little spacers you would buy the proper sized mount that bolt directly to the fork then to the caliper
I dont have any actual knowledge on the surron because I never worked on one but a good friend of mine runs a non-electric bicycle with a belt and pinion gearbox, and he needs to change out the belt pullys every 3k miles. (He rides his bike like a mad man, hes been doing 150 miles every week at a high pace)
@7.04. looks like you have not installed the chain stay brace repair. The holes for the four bolts were drilled, but the plate didn't look like it was installed.
Thanks for the post guys !! Going to get one soon !! How did the Hope 225 work with your spacer mod ? I will be doing off road alittle and some down hills so I know I want to get the biggest disk I can for the front.
I thought you said I was gonna get one!!!!! lol... these things are the shit they should be me a free one I work 5 miles away I would daily this thing unless we have snow! so cool. PS.. please mine your inactive at the moment ha
Jack, at 4:07 you can see there is a bracket that bolts the caliper to the fork.. please get rid of those spacers and buy yourself the proper sized bracket for your new rotor I am a mountain bike fanatic and i know if i used little spacers like that on my mountain bike i would feel the flex/play in my brakes
If you want a 4 gears with a manual clutch that's full size electric dirt bike then EBeast is the one. We also have a 4 gears electric dirt with a manual clutch that's mid size similar to the ET Time Moto called the EFox! Seen on my Channel
The purpose of the light bee is to be small, compact, and easy to manage. If you want a big dirt bike, buy a big dirt bike. I wanted a small compact bike to commute with.
I'm curious why you went for the hope floating rotors over the Ice Tech ones as some past experience with DH bikes them hope floating rotors start to rattle after some heavy braking
If you want to show off your craft, my name is Damian...? boy I would really love a SUR-RON e-bike to ride around the city and show off, the real fast car with a real fast rider... You see, I know I'm on time

where did you order your sur ron im trying to get one on alibaba but they want to communicate on whats app . i dont want to get scammed please help thanks steven visca
Link to rotor? Also, Just saw a vid yesterday that all Chinese ebikes no longer get the 25% import tax.. is this gonna drop a chunk on these bikes now?
Agreed. It's pretty cool technology and the fact that you can ride it virtually anywhere is cool but I'd still rather a motorcycle or dirt bike for the money.
I need to build mine and I spent over 13,000 in aftermarket parts. How can I get in touch with you so if you agree I can pay you to help me build mine?
That is a very sketchy thing that the instructions actually tell you to cut and make a weak point in the frame to attach the belt. I would like to get the belt one day but dang I didn't know about that.
Motorcycle Modders : Let's see how loud we can get!
Sur Ron Modders: Let's see how quiet we can make it!
Love seeing jack getting mechanically inclined with all his toys. 👍
Damn you know youre living in 2030 when you have to download an app to tension a belt
Drooling here for the Sur-Ron & The Mazda RX-7, Remembering me my old and beautiful RX-3 AND RX-7 BEAUTIFUL CARS 😢
Finally. been excited to see the belt up grade
e bikes are fucking awsome, i cant imagine what eBikes/eCars are capable after 5-10 years. future is electric and thats for sure
I like the sound of it now!! They are too much fun.
Hey sup Jack Cecil from SW Florida have a nice day man Keep make more CZcams videos it is very good and I like it A lot of your car and I love Japan ?
Nice upgrade with the rotor. Hope quality is also awesome

Loving the videos on the Sur Ron jack , The Hope factory is about 10minutes from my house in Lancashire England
That’s very cool! If you ever go over there let them know we are using the rotors!!
Jack, you could do a video going over your dust bunnie collection and i would still watch it, you do a great job of being informative and entertaining at the same time.
Thank you lol.
Way to go Jack first make sure you can stop before how fast can you make it go your a wise man 🚲⚡💨💨💨🛑💥⚰️
Thats much better jack . Should have come from the factory like that !
Good stuff bro keep rolling 💪💯👍👍🆗😂
That thing seems so much quieter. Nice.

Finally 😭😭❤️ jack got ruddy to man up an get one
Remember the cartoon The JETSONS sounds like a car off there 😁👍
cool seeing those mods! This needs a body kit! ha!
Just need to add a speaker that plays the Jetsons car sound when you are moving!
And Diony soon gonna have one too!! 😂😂 STOKE !

they have a chain on them because they are more durable for jumps and the surron is a electric “dirt bike” so they would naturally care more about durability that sound
Top Mod With Brake 😎.👍
Patiently waiting for my Sur Ron x to arrive with my belt drive already installed on it
why dont u make a video with ur bike?
Thanks Jack Cecil for vidéo on sur-ron !

Those hope rotors are floating and that makes more noise those will also go bad faster. I used to run them on all my dh bikes but not that good
I love this thing
@7.04. looks like you have not installed the chain stay brace repair. The holes for the four bolts were drilled, but the plate didn't look like it was installed.
When you gunna do big power upgrades
You should do a give a way with 1
Give away a surron? Damn
@3:20 "these come off pretty easy" - lol yeah, maybe in Hait. I stripped my stock rotors to shit trying to get them off.
May I ask what app you used to tension the belt?
Thanks for the post guys !! Going to get one soon !! How did the Hope 225 work with your spacer mod ? I will be doing off road alittle and some down hills so I know I want to get the biggest disk I can for the front.
Milo 158 I can’t find the spacer kit
get some upgraded brakes aswell any high end mtb brake will work id reccomend some 4pot hope or magura , would seriously increase braking power
mhhhh...hearing this, think I need that belt too, but first have to rewire mine for the new controller and get that Magura MT 7 in.
Still recommend the bike? You take the Moto tires any off road? Ie light sand dirt etc
So much better with the belt.
Hello. Have you tested this belt drive kit with 72V battery and BAC8000? If yes, is the belt strong enough?
Good question!
So these don't cut the motor when braking? Regen thru the chain/belt by any chance?
Where did you find a 225mm? Can’t find one anywhere in stock or that will ship to the US, been looking for like a year lol
Hey quick answer where can I get those spacer and bolts to buy?
How much improvement did the rotor make?
Do you have the X controller? The X controller is quieter then the stock one. Good upgrades how is the front break better?
What's that going to cost me to get all the top upgrades and the beefed up battery pack, shipped to the USA? To see which kidney I've got to sell.
JACK... WUT IS THE CORRECT TENSION ON THE APP FOR A SURRON ?????????
Rodnok hasn't got the Gucci Belt yet lol
Needs top speed mods. I wanna see 100+ out of one of these with proper mods
and what are you really gonna do with a 100mph Sur-Ron besides go straight???
I thought you said I was gonna get one!!!!! lol... these things are the shit they should be me a free one I work 5 miles away I would daily this thing unless we have snow! so cool. PS.. please mine your inactive at the moment ha
Def not inactive lol
Does the belt kit reduce weight materially ?
In my mind anyway it might be more efficient with the belt drive
There is a YT video covering all pros/cons about street legal eBikes, I believe it may be @lunacycles but I could be mistaken.
do you think a smaller than 42 teeth in the back will achieve higher top speed
Where did you get that spacer kit for the 225mm disk , I can’t find anything 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 thanks so much
I know how frustrating this is....why can't the guy just put the links for the parts that he does the video on???
Jack, at 4:07 you can see there is a bracket that bolts the caliper to the fork.. please get rid of those spacers and buy yourself the proper sized bracket for your new rotor
I am a mountain bike fanatic and i know if i used little spacers like that on my mountain bike i would feel the flex/play in my brakes
I Like Chiken does hope do the 225mm bracket mate ? Thanks
How much do you want for it I want one just like that, powerful,fast and quiet, please lmk
What brake claws are that

jack put on a big brake kit on a bike
The way you align the disk brake is by losing the bolts of the calipers, push the lever and tight the bolts at the same. Thank me later :)
It gets you close but never perfect. I use light and gentle adjustments to find center.
I'm curious why you went for the hope floating rotors over the Ice Tech ones as some past experience with DH bikes them hope floating rotors start to rattle after some heavy braking
This bike will never see heavy braking. And i couldn’t find the ice tech in a 225mm

No
