Shiva, a multitude of thanks sir! This little bike has changed my world and your videos greatly enhance that experience. When walking with my cane, I resemble a stumblebum. On my Jetson Pro I am a graceful daring youth! I am able to maintain a high cadence despite hills, navigate traffic and look sorta semi cool doing it! My blood pressure and pulse rate have plummeted, hypertension meds reduced. Thank you again sir! Best regards, John Hrichak

[@johnhrichak3451]

Greetings Shiva, Several months later and a report for newbie Jetson Pro owners. The battery supplied does NOT (apparently) have a LVC, or low voltage cutoff. DO NOT run it till the battery expires! Destroys the battery, as I experienced. $150 later, a new 10 ah battery (your recommendation) with LVC included. Now confidence with 60% more capacity. Truly enjoying my ride. Namaste Best regards, John Hrichak

[@elantric]

I observe the stock rear gear is 12 teeth, while this 6 speed gear cluster's smallest gear is 14 teeth - = this means the stock rear gear has higher speed when pedaling.

You are the GOD of Jetson Bolt Pro vids. Not sure I'll get this but I think this is the first YT vid where the motor of this bike was changed, which I'll do when my original motor goes. Question though, you mentioned that you should leave the pin halfway thru on the old chain. Why is this if you are using the new chain? You shouldn't have to deal with the old chain, correct? Always enjoy your Jetson Bolt Pro vids!

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thank you very much for your continued support! You are so kind. The reason why I would recommend leaving the pin is in case you need to revert back to your original system. The new system comes with its own chain but if you don't like the gearing system and want to use the regular chain, that pin is really hard to insert if fully ejected. Thank you.

[@3dlll]

Nice video. I'm from France and I didnt find a proper channel about this product and you are the only guy who does complete upgrades on the Jetson Bolt. Here its branded as Eslide or DUY but its exactly the same chinese product. Cheers

Thank you shiva, you really are the best at explaining detail and being helpful. I'm looking forward to your opinion on the 48v upgrade, the bolt pro was my only option price wise, im in my 50s 6'1" and 220lbs, this bike exceeded my expectations. i get about 9mi. using peddle assist in moderate terrain with a couple steep runs. Im planning on doing any upgrades to extend distance that i can, including dual battery that you have done. Thank you again. from kansas city mo.

[@danibles1648]

Wait, you said the new controller allows the 19mph card unlock? Because I have the new bike w the hardware lock. Also one of your other videos you said the controller can probably handle more amp hours. I think you said up to 20. I would love to see a final result. 18mph 20ah battery multigear and some clocking estimates on road and off-road. You rock!

[@mugentruggy]

Does the gears help on hills only on motor, or help with pedal assit?

[@jb1934]

The number one thing jetson needs in the drivetrain is a freewheel so the bike can be pedalled without having to overcome with back emf in the direct drive hub motor. Here's a tantalizing mod with a freewheel... but does it work around the back emf?? If it does, it's worth every penny. If it doesn't, then it's the wrong solution for the problem.

[@MyHealingGarden]

Hello Shiva. Your videos are great! Do you have video - How to realign wheels to handlebars? Jetson Bolt handlebar Realignment? My bolt is really tight I can’t loosen it? Thank you ! Jane

[@ShivaSapkota]

Hello, thank you very much! I don't have a video but if you fold the stem and look straight down you will see an ellen screw (I believe this is 10mm), you just have to loosen that screw and you can align the wheels with handlebars. Make sure to secure that screw when the alignment is completed. If the screw is stubborn, use a long extension to the allen key.

[@MyHealingGarden]

@@ShivaSapkota Thanks! It is very stubborn - I am a girl - do not have force 💪 and afraid it can break if i force it to much

[@ShivaSapkota]

@@MyHealingGarden It shouldn't break (may be the allen wrench might break lol). You can also get longer keys like this one to put more leverage. amzn.to/38PelwV

[@taidriscoll1580]

Hi Shiva I’ve been looking for an electrical bike for a while now and I just stumbled on your video after my uncle showed me a photo of the bike and it’s price. I was wondering how well it does on hill’s because I live at the top of a hill that’s almost 2 miles and very steep at some parts and I want something to help me get back up it after school. If you could do a video on that or just let me know about it that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

[@liamwinters298]

The bolt pro with only it's single default gear is quite hard to get up hills. If you add a 6-speed gear assembly like the one in the video, however, hills will be a lot easier to manage

[@otherallies]

I would like to see how Jetson or Fiido d4s can be made removable battery with Key lock..There are battery in case shell with Key lock in the market, with similar specs as Fiido D4S 36v 10.4AH but I don't know how to install that in my bike.

[@ShivaSapkota]

Thank you very much! Yeah it should work with DYU d3f but not sure about the motor connectors. Make sure they match. Torque comes with higher voltage and I am currently looking into upgrading my bolt to a 48V system which should give me a lot more power. Thanks!

[@dubmob151]

Is there any kind of standard to the front chainring that might allow that to be swapped with a higher gear ratio?

That looks like a fourteen tooth high gear. I've got a seven speed freewheel that has an eleven and a thirteen tooth plus the lower gears. Need 48 on the front to make this kit meaningful.

[@user-pp6if7wl9q]

Hi Shiva, greetings! Amazing, amazing videos! I live in Toronto, Canada and am wondering if I could hear your expert opinion on whether the Jetson Bolt Pro or the Everyday Minnow 16" electric bike is the better ebike. After watching so many of your videos, and your truly mechanical and logical and analytical approach, I am sure that your feedback will help me decide on which ebike to purchase...to be honest, I have ordered an Everyday Minnow as it has bigger wheels, however, I don't know if the Minnow has full throttle option (I suspect that the Minnow only has pedal assist) - would love to hear your thoughts...should I cancel the Minnow order and buy a Jetson Bolt Pro? Thanks a million, for helping all the Jetson Bolt community out there, God bless!

[@ShivaSapkota]

Greetings! Thank you for your kind words. I personally haven't tested the Minnow ebike but looking at their spec, it does have a throttle option. It also has an electronic horn and a front screen to show speed etc. For the larger wheels and those extra features, I would go with Minnow over Jetson if the price is not significantly higher for the Minnow. Hope this helps!

[@user-pp6if7wl9q]

Hello Shiva, thank you so very much indeed for your prompt reply - it really helps! I will take your advise and go with the Minnow...re the throttle option, I am hoping that it is not just to start moving but that it will allow riding without pedaling...irrespective of this, yes, I will go with the Minnow coz of the larger wheels and extra features - the price is actually around CAD25 cheaper than the Jetson Bolt Pro here in Canada...not a significant difference...however the Minnow does not seem to have a following such as the Jetson does...and you are most certainly helping make a HUGE difference for the better, for Jetson followers - and for me too, thanks!

[@yohan2437]

How is the free play on the folding handlebar hinge on your bike? I am finding that after one year that there seems to be more play in that it clicks and moves more at the hinge than when new when you gently push/pull the handlebars when stopped. And I never unlatch the hinge. I suspect the bumps from normal riding is causing the clearance on the hinge pin to wear and get more play over time?

[@onlywenilaugh6589]

I only paid about $110 more than this kit for the entire bike.

[@flitsies]

Not sure i would say this mod is worth the extra weight and effort to fit it's not really a hard bike to pedal except when the battery is dead. What would be a good upgrade is a smaller free wheel, and a larger front sprocket with shorter crank arms, which would give you more top speed even if less hill climbing, but then that's what the motor does, makes hill climbing a little easier. As it stands when you pedal you just about get up to around 12 to 14 mph and the legs are moving very fast, with a smaller free wheel it may take it to 15 or 16 with the same result, with a shorter crank arm and larger crank sprocket you might increase to 17 to 18 but only on the flat. But for all this it's just as easy to swap out the controller and if you feel flush the motor for a 350 watt motor which will give you much better performance all round, except hill climbing, these bikes seem to hate hills.

Yes, you could spend thousands of dollars on an eBike kzbin.infoUgkxUiL0GnyDjP32RJdd660sP8mZk4CRLTCJ and get something much higher quality. However, if you're looking for a basic model to try out eBiking this is a great choice. The assembly is easy as far as bikes go (took about an hour for me to do, I'm not an expert). All tools needed are included. I added the plastic mud guards you see and a more comfortable seat. The other reviews are correct that you're probably going to want a better seat (Giddy Up! Bike Seat is what I got - super comfortable). The battery easily handles a 2-4 hour ride if you add some of your own pedal power. I haven't even gotten it up to top speed yet - it is very fast. Components are not top of the line, but decent for the price and work just fine. It works great on dirt roads and singletrack and pavement although too heavy to do tricks or any serious technical mountain biking. I'm looking forward to using it a lot over the summer. Tons of fun!
