You need to mention the drive side bottom bracket cup needs to be turned clockwise to be loosened. I stripped my going counter. I don’t think it was ever mentioned in this video...only about the peddles. Also not mentioned in the instructions. It’s was hard to notice the directions being turned when it was sped up.
I completed my own 10-speed install on my S2 in Aug 2020 with my own parts. It is a great upgrade to allow pedalling on hill climbing with the low torque motor on the S2 and R/RX.
@@stephengauntt574 I think I bought a spacer back on Amazon. I think it had 1mm 2mm 3mm 4mm. Or check with a local bike shop they might have some lying around
Can someone who really knows bikes please explain to me the point of having a 10 speed cassette on a GEARED HUB motor with a CADENCE sensor. It sure won’t help with torque nor top speed. Isn’t cassette gears only useful on a MID DRIVE motor with TORQUE sensor? That’s why you often see them on mountain bikes. I could very well be mistaken that’s why I want someone to explain it to me. Thanks.
I like it for the exercise when not relying on the electric motor. Sure, a proper pedal bike is better for that, but it's nice to have options. I have a Juiced Hyper Scrambler with gearing and it helped me drop like 50lbs so having this option on my RX is awesome!
better pedal use on hills and therefore lower battery usage overall when using pedal assist modes. Check out Tristan Ervin's video on it, he did a test ride and it seems like a huge power savings.
Can someone please explain to me what this installation actual does? does the 10 speed gear kit basically mean it can go faster now? can someone please just tell me the differences from a base RX and then an RX with a 10 speed kit?
I just installed this kit on my Neighbours S73. It took a few hours as it was my first S73 upgrade. I live in Venice and build ebikes if any needs help with their install....
if you know how to replace your brake pads and rotor then this is a peace of cake, tools maybe around $30 bucks plus the parts, you can even put a 8 speed.
Is the FR 5.2H required or can this also be done with the Park FR 5.2? In other words... will the pass thru hole on the FR5.2 be large enough to accommodate the axel on the bike? I ask as the FR5.2 tool only costs about $8 vs. $44.
@@TheGameTiger I followed this video-- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eXcxsCHo-Rk.html It took a while to find a deraileur but I managed. Even though it is on now, I still haven't really adjusted it correctly. That is probably the hardest part for me, but its there and it works.

*BEWARE* this company WILL NOT respond to you if you have problems with your bike! They only respond if you want to make a purchase. All the new motors have issues, V1, V2, and V3 🤦♂️
