My throttle broke, the casing crumbled around the bolt that holds it in place. Since there is lots of cable I am going to use the part that held the handlebar on the throttle, and my dremel, to put the cruise on the left where the start button is now. Start can move over by the gooseneck, out of the way. And now I dont risk broken fingers or carpel tunnel.

[@mikeemmons1079]

Update, FWIW: I was unable to salvage the OEM display. I might have been able to, but that would have required a longer set of handlebars. On the bright side, I was able to splice it together right below the bars, and leave those wires available for future use. I had to replace the grips themselves, but they matched the novelty mirrors I bought so all in all, it was the fashionable choice.

[@lmarcos53]

Thank you so much for your video on this! My son's Jetson had the throttle go out on him. Throttle handle just spun around. Saw your video on installing a thumb drive, ordered the part, and some wire connectors, followed your wiring diagram, and though the colors weren't an exact match on my harness, I still followed your diagram, and it worked!! Works perfect. Thank you so much!

[@ShivaSapkota]

Awesome! I am really glad it worked out for you.

[@rhino8422]

Great video. I bought mine for $20!! because the person thought it was unrepairable. Me knowing nothing about this bike, I found your video and now it works perfectly! Thank you

[@johndoe-id2uh]

Jetson needs to sponsor you at this point

[@ShivaSapkota]

Believe me or not, they have been very silent. They don't respond my emails or calls. I am kind of disappointed that instead of recognizing the work I am doing to provide customer support (which they should be doing), they are not even answering my queries. But, I make these videos to help my viewers out, so its all good :)

[@jimkahn5107]

I watched your videos on taking out the battery, replacing the rear disk brake pads and rotor, and a few other videos. These are excellent teaching vids for people like me, who would otherwise be clueless about fixing problems with the Jetson Bolt. I had a lot of fun replacing brake pads and rear rotor, even though it was (for me) a complicated job. Jetson does nothing to support this bike - I cannot even get a new rear fender! - so your work in this regard is very much appreciated. Thank you! (By the way, I purchased a set of brake pads from Amazon that turned out to be a fraction of a millemeter too big, and would not fit in the brake pad housing. My solution was to buy a Shimano disk brake caliper, which included the pads. It would make it easier, and ultimatley cheaper, for me to get replacement pads in the future.)

[@thestormthatisapproaching_]

honestly i was super skeptical about this working but once all the wires were connected and it worked i lit up. thank you so much!

[@ronbush9780]

Best bike video ever Shiva. My throttle broke during long bouncy ride in my boat. Bought a three wire thumb throttle on Amazon and hooked it up to the red black and blue and now works like a champ. Other wires on my harness were different colors but didn’t matter as I did not have to hook up the battery voltage wires. By the way, I hooked the thumb throttle to the right of the break leaver and cruise control. I did this by. Cutting off the grip, shortening it by the width of the throttle then putting in back with double stick tape like you use for attaching golf grips. Now have the best of both worlds. A thumb throttle and a grip that doesn’t rotate. Will not accidentally power this bike with the standard grip throttle which has caused me to flip a bike in the garage a while back. Thanks man. It is a wonder that you could figure out which wires to tap into. I’m a fan. Ron

[@edwinmizrahi]

Thank you Shiva. I bought the thumb throttle and finished installing it after several days. My Jetson Pro is the older one and the color scheme of the wires did not match yours. So I tried many ways to match it up. After hours and hours of trial an error, I finally got it to work properly. A couple of notes for novices like me. The brake cable is easy to take off, but I found it really hard to get it back on to the brake lever. Also, snaking the wire through the frame was a bit tricky, but doable. Last but not least, do not make the same mistake I did by cutting the wires for the 6 pin throttle connector too close to the connector. You will have a real hard time splicing the wires together. BTW I also used your tire replacement video to help me replace my rear tire. Thanks again.

[@IdGoBackIfICould]

Thank you so much for doing these Jetson Bolt Pro modification videos! I’m so glad that I found your channel and I really appreciate what you are doing for the Jetson Bolt community.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thank you very much for your support! I love making these videos and sharing my knowledge. These videos will keep coming :)

[@LSVBolsaChica]

I just bought a Jetson and subsequently found your channel. You're doing a great job providing useful tips and info. Thank you. I want to mention that my bike came with the folding latch so tight that it was extremely difficult to unlatch. After some tinkering, I figured out that the latch can be adjusted by rotating the bar in the latch.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, thank you very much for your kind words and thanks for sharing that tip. Many people go trough a tight latch issue, I will recommend that tip for them.

[@Crash5545]

Didn’t originally want to do this mod, but on my way to my last final before graduating my throttle snapped. Thanks for the video, seems pretty straightforward. The OE throttle didn’t last all that long so I’m not convinced spending another $50-60 on a throttle that’s liable to snap in the same manner. Thanks for the videos on this bike, they’re about the only thing letting me maintain it myself on a tight commute budget after we had to scrap one of our cars due to insane back-to-back maintenance costs.

[@NguyenThu-cf9gx]

This is a well made video. Thank you for making these great videos. I wait for the new video to hide the cable, then I'll do both job at the same time. You're amazing Shiva.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thank you very much for your support. I really appreciate it. I should have another video out on battery switch hopefully middle of next week and many more videos in the future.

[@johnbell6477]

Thanks so much for your videos. I needed to add extention bars so that we could sit upright while peddaling and this video help me understand how to remove the throttle and brake cable. I slipped on my boxer Bar ends and it was a game changer for us. You're the best.

[@ShivaSapkota]

I am really happy to hear that my videos have been helpful. Thanks for your feedback and support to my channel.

[@toxicmetalgearlance3104]

Thank you for this, my little nephew was having a hard time riding this, and broke the throttle. So this is going to be a great fix for this, thanks again

[@barryallen8887]

Me and my uncle are working on it rn thank you so much, your videos have the easiest instructions

[@ShivaSapkota]

Would you install a thumb throttle on your Jetson Bolt Pro after watching this video? Let me know your thoughts. Thanks for your support to my channel. Parts needed for this installation are listed in the description of my video.

[@darienbien611]

You should install a mid-drive on ur jetson bolt pro

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@darienbien611 That would be a fun project. I might consider that in the future. Perhaps move my hub motor to the front and put a mid drive to run the rear wheel. Thanks for watching my video.

[@clcobillas]

I enjoy your videos about mods for the Jetson Bolt Pro. I am interested in just adding the battery voltage indication but I don’t necessarily want to change from the twist throttle to thumb throttle. Do you have any suggestions for a “stand alone” battery voltage indicator? I like the size of the one built into the thumb throttle and the fact that it mounts to the handlebar but would prefer to not have a thumb throttle. Is it possible to separate and eliminate the throttle from the voltage display? As I said, I enjoy your informative videos. Keep them coming!

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@clcobillas Hi Chuck, thank you very much for your support. What if you just tap into those lines and have both throttles? You can just not use the thumb throttle. Or you can connect the power, ground and voltage line and not connect the throttle signal line of this thumb throttle. That would be the easiest way to have that voltmeter and still have your original twist throttle. I think I found a product that you are looking for but I do not know where you would connect those cables. Without actually having this product in hand, I wouldn't be able to tell you where to connect the red and black wires. You can check out here. amzn.to/2P5YfFb

Thanks Ray! I appreciate the support. I am working on that video for next week.

[@JS-ji5fl]

Thanks Shiva for this video! I should mention, this also works with replacing a regular throttle (my stock one broke), and doesn't require the yellow wire.

[@moovintruespace994]

Brilliant tutorial buddy. I personally find this more dangerous. I used to have it on my scooter and it was much easier to fire that lever when you didn't want to! I got into serous trouble. I'll always stick to twist and go, for that reason. Each to their own right.

[@charliemik7284]

You are right about to each their own. One friend, my wife, and I all switched our ebikes from twist to thumb throttles for the same reason. It seems we all like to twist the throttle when mounting and dismounting which dangerously sends the bike shooting off uncontrolled. Each of us sustained minor injuries at least once before making the decision to switch to the thumb throttles.

[@dubmob151]

coming from a motorcycling background, throttle grips are better because they allow you to properly grip the handlebars. Opposable thumbs make that possible, but if you need the thumb to operate the throttle, you're basically just holding on with your palm and a few fingers. It's fine for smooth roads and slow speeds, but sometimes a more secure grip is warranted. That said, it was evident who was a novice to throttle grips at a Can Am demo ride, because they would turn the throttle grip and once it started accelerating, they just grabbed it harder to try hanging on as the bike left them behind, accelerating even harder in the process in a vicious cycle 😂. Experienced bikers will put a finger on the brake lever as a reference point for the throttle grip angle.

[@elleseven71]

i definitely need to do this because my daughter was falling and was still holding the throttle, fell and broke her jaw and she's 30; it'll be advantageous for all of us: myself, daughter and grandson! she's doing better. didn't have to get her jaw wired or anything, but had to eat stuff she didn't have to chew. **be careful & ride on**

Hello, thank you very much for your kind words. I will consider that as my future mod. Thanks!

[@fluffy5980]

@@ShivaSapkota alright sounds good! Any reason you personally haven't did the mod yet ( changing the crankarm?) are you afraid of it being to hard to pedal or even losing pedal assist?

Hi, my throttle grip had loosened on it's own. This video showed me how to tighten it back up. THANKS!! I think my Jetson Bolt needs a new headset. How would I replace it and where would I get the part? I've done that on regular bicycles years ago. Basically disconnect steering from fork.

[@yohan2437]

Hi Shiva, great video! If I want to disable the throttle, which wire should i disconnect at 14:45 in the video? I want to put a toggle switch inline so that I can easily disable the throttle. Would you recommend the switch go on Power, Signal, or Ground?

[@ShivaSapkota]

I would recommend you put the toggle switch on your signal wire (blue). That way, you don't have to worry about power and ground. You can use a very simple one wire toggle switch for that. Thanks for watching my video. Let me know if you run into any issues or have questions about your upgrade.

[@viernesb]

Following this video, i did add a switch so that the throttle could just be turned off. When I opened it up, my wiring harness ended up being black with a green signal wire. Using your diagram i was able to easily find it though. Thanks!

[@rfriedman2823]

Mr. Sapkota iam a huge fan and a subscriber. I can't begin to even explain how helpful your videos are...Gratitude. I have one quick and pertinent question. If one were to upgrade to both above mentioned thumb throttle & the controller upgrade mentioned in a previous video at the same time, knowing what you know, is there one that you would install before the other? 🙏

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thank you very much for all the support, I really appreciate your kind words. I would do them at the same time and instead of connecting to the original throttle, I would connect the new controller to the thumb throttle. Sometime people accidently burn their original throttle, so at least installing the thumb throttle would insure that your original stock throttle works in case you need to revert the modification. Hope this helps. Thank you.

Nice shiva . I have had success cutting the throttle on my ecotric bike to make a half throttle and a regular grip. I wrapped the handle bar so the outside of the grip would not turn. How do you get off the throttle on the jetson. Thanks. Ron

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Ron, there is a screw in the back left corner of the right handlebar to loosen the throttle. I am not sure how you can do that with this bike. Thanks for watching my video.

[@ronbush9780]

@@ShivaSapkota love your videos. They show the mind of an adventurer. The splice kit with internal solder is a new one for me……..I got three of the jetson bikes for my grandkids but finding they work well for adults also. Bought a longer seat stem so that I could get more engagement when raising the seat. Bought a 9 dollar stem that is 350 mm long by 28.6 in diameter. It gives me an extra 1.75 inches of length to engage the seat clamp…….I found the screw and bought a metric Allen set. Today I cut the existing throttle handle 3” from the end of the grip. I wrapped the handlebar for the piece I cut off with about 6 wraps of duct tape. Now I have a split throttle with a cost of zero. I am a retired nuclear plant engineer and piddling with e bikes is a source of entertainment. How can I contribute to your channel. My best friend is ramachendren gillella reddy.

Hi Is it possible and correct to be connected both Thumb Throttle? (parallel connection) ?

[@jonog8967]

What are your thoughts on the stability of the handlebar/steering given small wheel? I am going to do your thumb throttle install next week and that might be a good time to address the handlebar. I saw a vid where somebody replaced the stock bar with one that was a bit longer. Would that help with stability/steering given small wheels? I saw another video where a guy actually loosened the stem (at the point it folds) and then turned the stem completely around the other way to have the grips closer to the rider (not on the Bolt Pro, but similar e-bike with folding stem). So I think I can rotate the Bolt stem. Of course in the rotating the stem approach need to re-orient the brakes.

1) it will be easy if you loose the middle bolt and slide the handle one side and u can easily take out the brake assembly. 2) removing of left hand side is easy as there is no throttle and grip can slide off easily.

Thank you Jay. That is a great idea. I didn't even think about loosening the middle bolt.

Hello dear Jason it's okay I'm ready to learn. 😊😊

On the upgraded controller where did you put the voltmeter

Hey Shiva, I've hqd a Bolt Pro for about a year, now the throttle is working intermittentantly. when I twist the wires in the stem it works.. that seems like a loose wire. I took the battery cover off and everything looks good.. so its probably in the stem.. .. (the connection).. you think?

Great video. Thank you!

Hi Shiva I want to install a thumb throttle with a key lock one. Could you please advise which one in Amazon Canada is compatible to Jetson Bolt Pro? Please also tell me how to match colour wires of the keyed throttle wires with the Jetson Bolt Pro wires. Thank you so much!

Sadly, mine didn't work. Bought the same throttle, but even if I connects it directly in the female connector like a full replacement of the original throttle, pressing the thumb doesn't make the wheel spin. The screen does show the voltage thought. Any thoughts on this? Should it work like a full replacement? Can the throttle be bad? Also, my original throttle doesn't have the same colors. The cruise control cables are white and blue, the voltage is yellow and the throttle seems to be green, red and black. Edit : and just like this, I totally forgot about the brakes. As I was testing, one of them was in the engage position. While this was fix, the rest went fine and now it works!

Hey Shiva! Can you send me the link for the chain tightening again please? My tool finally came!

[@michaelhays2158]

Do you know where I can get a bigger crank sprocket so it won't be so hard to pedal when the battery goes dead?

[@canli9048]

Nice mod. Is it possible to add a rear derailleur to this bike?

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hi Can, I don't think you can add a derailleur without first modifying the bike. The entire chanring assembly will need to be updated and I don't think there is even room there. Thanks for watching my video.

Do you know if disconnecting the white wire disable the speed limit?

[@ShivaSapkota]

No it doesn't. You have to reprogram the controller or replace it. Thanks!

Ever thought of switching the handle bar to regular bmx bar? I’m trying to figure out the size of the quill stem. Do you by chance know the size?
