    I can not wait to getting the kit from you. I have a 2023 Wired freedom. I tow a Rambo trailer with my camping gear. This kit will be a game changer

    CitizenCycle Guy, you were one of my major educational sources when I was searching for an ebike. It's been 2+ years since I got my bike. Great to see you continuing to evaluate ebikes and sharing your experiences. Much appreciated.
  • @SMG-lz1zq
    This kit is great! Good idea doing it. I've been enjoying all your videos.
  • Impressed! There ya go if you have friends that you ride with but can't keep up or go as far 😂
  • I am ready to order the kit for my bike channel. I am putting it on my Cyrusher Kommoda 20x4 inch fat tore bike!

    ​ @CitizenCycle925 Just put in my order!! So excited. Any chance of them shipping sooner? lol!
  • @buffalomind6838
    That’s the wise way to utilize the extra motor. If not you’d have to have twice the amount of batter if not more to equal why you get with half the clutter/weight. Awesome job, Citizen,

    The power difference is amazing. The Aventon was a bit more efficient stock, using only 23.2 watt hours per mile. With the kit, the bike used 28.3 watt hours per mile, but that is expected due to the extra weight and higher power peaks. Totally worth it though!

    I have almost the same set up on my rad mini step through and is one of my favorite bikes that I have My number one bike out of nine that I have is my new Wallke H6 MAX that I am currently in the process of adding front motor Great video as usual, my friend ✌️😎
  • @totoroboto
    A while back your dad mentioned not caring for the "fish-tailing" effect of a step through ebike. Maybe sometime you could explain exactly what he meant and how adding the front motor affected that on your Aventon? Thanks!!
  • Yeeeaaa I'm sold ! I'm down dude! I ride mostly in the first 2 modes so I'm sure this will be plenty for me!
  • @alexfletter2844
    I pulled the trigger and just preordered. I see theres a charge... Looking forward to installing!!! Says ready in May?
  • @RobotboyBob
    I'm wondering why you went with the RST Guide forks? I'm looking to upgrade my dual motor bike and all the forks I see look to be the same with different stickers. I need to find one that's not going to leave me stranded or worse. Thanks! Keep up the vids, always a good watch! 👍

    Very Cool! Range is my first interest, acceleration is second and I don't care to go any faster than 40 MPH on a bike... 🙂
  • @conceptualarts1
    I think the Hemingway Cobra could benefit from this front wheel assistant

    I got 44 miles on my first range test with the Aventon, using a mix of throttle and non-throttle on mostly hilly ground, and trying to do a lot of max-speed riding. I experienced the same drop off in battery power as you did when it got down to the low meter reading. Strangely, I also saw the meter rise a couple of percent a few times, then drop. Aventon should look into their metering. Currently I'm doing another test using just Econ mode and riding on flat ground, at normal speed. So far, I'm at 15 miles and 89% remaining on the battery. Test is on hold, until air temperatures get back above 50 degrees here. I can see where the 2nd battery/motor help your range. But would it be any better than just carrying a 2nd battery that could be swapped in to go further and get me home? I'm thinking about buying the 2nd battery, to test that out. Of course, your system has a big attraction ..... you can use the throttle at higher speeds than my single throttle will do, and you accelerate better.
