Nice! SoMo is pretty technical riding. This is my backyard and I pedal these trails all the time. Getting the timing down on these trails on a 55-60lbs bike would take some getting used to. (yeah, I am hitting the way-back machine on a 2 year old post, but that people do when researching bikes - thanks for taging the Luna Z1).

@LoveItDirtyOffroad2 жыл бұрын
A quick note: I didnt wanna take a lyft to pick up my vehicle so I rode the z1 through town; on the lowest assist setting and it still feels like it does most of the pedaling for you tho its still a good workout. I rode 15.2 miles and still had about 70% battery left cruising about 30kmh or less and took 58 min.

You cant beat it. Ive been beating it up and just have to adjust the derailleur almost each time. Rides really smooth and powerful. I originally thought the large battery was overkill but its nice to have; ive never ran it out but also not a die hard all day rider. I bent the pedal and scuffed the bottom of frame when i wrecked but seems fine otherwise.

@@LoveItDirtyOffroad how much time are you usually riding and how far are you going? I am picking up a Norco range VLT but I am considering selling it because I love that the Luna has double the torque/power. Tho I don’t love the 27.5 wheels.
@LoveItDirtyOffroad2 жыл бұрын
@@NickyNicest Ive rode it enough to know its a great bike though Ive never ridden a 10k+ bike so keep that in mind. Thing about the tires is I was bummed too to get the 27.5” cuz my GT has 29” and mainly loved the look but it does roll over things a bit easier BUT what I didnt realize is the 2.8 width maxxis rekon that come w the luna stick sooo much better than the 2.6 specialized I have on my gt sensor. There are a lot of variables but the rekons feel so much better hugging the curves; im sure the extra weight might play a part.

Can you pedal with out using the battery , or is there to much drag from the motor? was not sure if it used a one-way bearing or not. Basically if runs out of battery could you pedal it for say a mile or so? Thanks.
@LoveItDirtyOffroad2 жыл бұрын
Yeah but it feels like dragging a boulder uphill, I think that’s just the feeling of going from assist to a heavier bike w no power.

Cool project. Got my own project oddly similar to yours. I have an old VW bug planning to become a prerunner. I'd like it to have tube chassis, long travel suspension, electric axial AC motors, one per wheel, making it AWD, with regenerative braking. Batteries and controllers where the motor and transmission originally goes, rear suspension outside the body so that it's a 4 seater still. Can't wait to go to the dunes with it
