Mine has arrived in Australia great bike every body should have one enjoy

[@skytalon74]

nice! get some good rides in!

[@Flyingaceful]

Great video! Thinking about getting one.

[@skytalon74]

Go for it!

[@Flyingaceful]

Do you think the handlebars on Billy Goat can be changed to a regular MT bike handlebars? That handlebars is too high for my taste.

[@skytalon74]

@@Flyingaceful Yes, you can. I almost changed mine to MTB ones but you'd may want to find a stem with adjustable height. I tried a stem with 90mm length at 45 degree and it was too low. I also ride MTB but think the handlebars that come with the bike are about right.

[@Flyingaceful]

@@skytalon74 Got it. Thanks again!!! 👍

[@Bink4]

I ordered one but Im still waiting. should be here this or next week, got me worried with all the delays I’ve been reading sometimes not even getting it! I want to write a review once it’s in my hands will post it on Reddit. R/ebikes

[@skytalon74]

Hopefully soon!

[@nickmorgan8434]

I really want a Billy Goat but am in the Ghostcat f2.2 price range

[@jslllppspp]

I liked the wolf king until it started to break left and right and rear brake never worked for shht. I even flushed out the fluid , pads... still rear brake was trash. I got the king upto 67.4 mph but it only lasted 4000 miles and had to throw it away. Not worth the investment... i have the billy goat on the way, hopefully it lasts more than 4000 miles.

[@aychfriday]

Is there way to cover the red lights on the floor Maybe with electrical tape?

[@skytalon74]

yep, the tiny LED is just under the blinker.

[@darrylphillips6301]

Can you just throw some 20x4 tires on it like most of these bikes? Appreciate the vid👍

[@skytalon74]

That might be possible as long as the inside width to the rim is the same. I'd have to check that out!

[@rickymahoney6664]

I feel they should have realized that as a company, especially when these dont fit. They say they're gonna extend the fork. Why not just use 20x4 tires like every other bike? It seems like a strange business decision when they already knew this was an issue and sold them anyway

[@baggerbenn]

On the motor goat and I’m assuming any of them with the clearance issues are changing to a 20x4 front tire.

[@skytalon74]

@@rickymahoney6664 my understanding is they were all presales and they didn’t even know for sure till they got to USA. I found 25 PSI is the max up front.

[@skytalon74]

@@baggerbenn i hear they will get a wider fork.

[@LeeAyzahn]

Do you have or know anyone that has a 2024 Wired Freedom ? The reason I ask is because the battery for the Billy Goat looks very similar to the Wired Freedom's battery. And if the battery is compatible between the 2 bikes, it would be cheaper to get a spare Goat battery compared to a spare Wired battery and drop it into the Freedom.

[@skytalon74]

I do not know anyone with the wired freedom but would expect them to be different. I believe The Billy Goat battery has a 3 prong plug and WF has 4 prongs but they do look very similar.

[@LeeAyzahn]

@@skytalon74 ah ok, thanks for replying

[@darrylphillips6301]

Def not the same batteries.
