I have fitted juicy bike conversion

I take it its now gone

Well test cycled two bikes this weekend, very surprised seemed slower than the lifecycle, seemed as if they had followed the rule book 100% at 15.5 bang the motor cut out and did not offer any further assistance making the top speed very limited.

Am now thinking a conversion will be best, has anyone fitted a juicybike.co.uk conversion?

I fitted a conversion to my hybrid around Christmas. Fitting it took about an hour - but I didn't bother with the pedelec system. I'm pretty useless mechanically but I found it dead easy and obvious. Just put on yje front wheel and put the housing on the seat post. connect the wires to the control unit and put inside the housing. thats pretty much it. I had to check a couple of points - i needed to connect two wires wirh one of those little plastic connectors-but the guys at juicy bikes talked me through it very patiently. I had an issue after about a month where there was intermittent power loss. After speaking to them I sent back the control unit and received a new one and now the bike is very fast and powerful - I'm 6 foot 2 and it gets me the 7 miles to work and three big hills effortlessly and like a rocket. The guys at juicy bend over backwards to help you and this was a big decision in who I went for. I know I can go to them with any advice or help whenever it is required. There is a wire that you can disconnect to not use the limiter, which is handy. I find using the throttle very intuitive so wouldn't want to fit the pedelec part. You would probably be best to fit that at a bike shop unless you have a crank tool etc or leave it off like me. I have been around 25miles on a charge. If you cycle half way and motor assist yourself back you can get a long way on a day out. It's also very quiet. I would give juicy bikes 10/10 for the kit and the service. I feel in good hands. Hope that helps!
