Thanks for the great video! I see you’re running the 45NRTH Wrathchild tires on your 2023 Norco Bigfoot VLT 1. I’ve been using 45NRTH Dillinger 27.5 x 5 studded tires on my acoustic fat bike (2022 Trek Farley 7, which I’m planning to sell) and have had a good experience with them. However, I’m considering switching to Wrathchilds for my 2025 Bigfoot VLT. I’ve read that Wrathchild tires may not hold up as well on e-fatbikes due to their more aggressive stud pattern and potential issues with stud retention and carcass durability under the higher torque of a motorized drivetrain. Dillinger tires, on the other hand, seem to handle e-bike torque better with a more durable carcass and stud design. Have you experienced any of these issues with the Wrathchilds on your Bigfoot VLT, or are they holding up well for you on climbs and descents? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
@emtbadventures_ca28 күн бұрын
I apologize for the delayed response. I encountered some issues with my Wrathchild tires, but I managed to replace them under warranty because the sidewalls were leaking sealant. I ran them with 4-5 PSI on soft snow. A friend of mine uses a Dillinger tire at the front and a Wrathchild at the back, but I don't have any long-term feedback on how the Dillinger performs with eBikes.

I'm considering this bike. I saw your voltage issue from a year ago. Can you give me a rundown of whether you would recommend I buy it and why? For context, I have been riding a Norco Bigfoot 2 since February 2020. I use it exclusively in winter with studded tires to bike to work in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. The bike functions well even at -40 C. With an upgrade to electric, I would use the bike for commuting (our roads are snow packed from November to April) but also start off road biking on snow packed trails at all temperatures, and I would swap to non-studded tires and use it off road on dirt trails and gravel/solid rock surfaces in summer (but I ride a motorcycle for the streets in summer so wouldn't commute with it in summer). This bike is at least twice the price of other brands out there, but I favour quality as number 1 and don't mind paying for it. I want the 900 battery as well. The bike would be stored in a non-heated shop, so if it is -40, the bike will be -40 C - however I would bring the battery indoors every evening. Love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
@emtbadventures_ca9 ай бұрын
Norco was the first Canadian e-fat bike brand, and this year, Rockymountain joined the party. As you can see from my videos, I had a power issue after I purchased the bike, but after the last fix, I haven't had any power problems. I like the 900w battery, especially in the cold weather when the battery drains faster. I rode about 50km with 1000m elevation on turbo mode before it dropped below 10% with the 900w battery. The coldest I rode with this bike was -28°C, and I had no issues except after riding for an hour. I left the bike outside and got into my car to warm myself up for about 30 min when I had a problem turning on the bike. The power button battery needed to warm up for about 10 minutes inside my van, and it worked again. Rockymount is also not trouble-free. I heard from some friends who bought it that RM throws an error below -20°C. Because of my latest experience, I do not recommend leaving the bike in cold storage. I'm thinking about selling my bike with many upgrades. Let me know if you are interested. I'm in Calgary, Alberta. I hope it helps.
