Sur Ron top speed BOOST with CHEAP chain upgrade (more range too)

The only reason your top speed changed is due to what you yourself pointed out; the inefficiency of the old chain due to ingress of dirt/lack of oiling. The increased rolling resistance/drag will remqin constant hroughout throttle range if anything increasing, thus reducing top speed. Greater efficiency less rolling resistance = less drag = easier for motor to spin up & keep on spooling = more top speed

A "non O-ring" chain does require more maintenance that an "O-ring" version. But the added power to the rear wheel is why I raced with "non O-ring" chains.

Just bought a Renthal R1 chain after watching your video :) Going to use it with my 56 Tooth Sprocket

I'm glad girls are joining in the sur ron world!

Have you always been so good at making videos?

i had the same experience , way quieter and reaches top speed faster, considering that you can get it for 20 bucks its prolly the best upgrade you can do to a surron.

Stickers for horsepower 😂

I like you’re video

I love your content bro I can’t wait to buy mine I got 1,300 saved up for far lol I’m obsessed

O ring chain just seems better tbh, less maintenance is my main thing, I want a belt but they're expensive as hell

Manufacturers of X-ring chains claim to have less resistance than o-ring chains and saving power while providing for less maintenance. X-ring chains remain quiet. Non ring chains will provide the least amount of friction resistance.

You have clean the chain every now and then.

Thanks for the vids, purchased a few mods after seeing your list. Did you notice the chain get louder after breaking it in?

i ordered a 120 link chain for my bike as someone told me it is possible to get it to fit on the stock 48t sprocket is this true? in addition will adding a longer chain increase or decrease my top speed?

Great stuff man! Does this chain work with a stock sprocket? Thank you

Could the stock chain have dirty grease on it that's why it does that?

That is normal resistance in an o-ring chain. Your new chain may be smoother but will require more maintenance

you rock with your willies. say you think this works with mt ariel rider x-class 52v? Keep on rocking.

whats the bag you got on the battery cover?

Oring chains last longer and are usually quieter. I don't think I would change mine. I have 2600 miles on mine with little wear...I have a 52 tooth sprocket and top speed is 46....Way fast enough as I'm in the woods all the time. Once your new chain is broke in it will get noisy.

The original chain is stuff af probably due to lack of maintenance. Cleaning oiling etc.. regularly

yes bro that old chain needs to go in the bin never to be used again 😊👍🏾

I got my surron used and the chain has so much slack that it sometimes touches the frame. So I’m thinking of just going straight to a sprocket and chain upgrade. The tension is max already so I hope the reason why it has slack is because of wear.

What type of tires do you have installed?

Is this Miami FL? Just wondering about your ebike laws.

I've hit 50 on mine with stock battery and controller. So your bac4000 basically does nothing?

Quick question with Sur rons, when do you start noticing the power and top speed to dip? What percentage roughly?

The THEORY is that the o-rings keep the factory grease in and dirt out. It's typical for an o-ring chain to be stiff when it's cold, but after getting it up to temp it loosens. So, what you're seeing and feeling with the bike cold isn't fully indicative of an o-ring chain's "inefficiency." Whereas any new non-o-ring chain will definitely give an instant boost, which you show. The question is what happens in real-world usage where dirt gets into a non-o-ring chain vs an o-ring one. Then the efficiency differences may be measurable the other way (with non-o-ring losing efficiency), but for those of us who just want basic reliability an o-ring chain will probably serve us best. In motorcycle usage what most street bikes will experience is that a non-o-ring chain will wear, and stretch, a lot quicker than an o-ring chain due to the loss of the factory grease and the intrusion of dirt. I've found in my various forays into skateboarding and inline skating and bicycling that there's lots of mumbo jumbo about bearing and chain efficiencies and the types of lubes used and how they're applied, and a lot of the science and real world numbers can show improvements WHEN VERY STRICT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES ARE ADHERED TO. If you don't want to do intense cleaning and lubing every single session then, yeah, you're gonna go slower. Is the extra work worth the extra speed? You have to figure out for yourself how much effort you wanna put in. So, put a couple hundred miles on that chain and let us know how it works for you. It might be the hot ticket, or maybe it might not.

Did I hear you tried a bypassed stock battery w stock controller? Was there any benefits?

You really need to put on some riding gear or something 25-53 mph on asphalt probably wouldn't feel good on those bare knee caps hell even 4mph wouldn't feel good 50 mph u might loose a body part and that shit don't grow back

I use Traxxas Marine Grease on my chain. After watching your vid I can see the 20 weight shock oil isn't gonna do it for me.

Cool vid. How do you like those tires?

Why is ur top speed so slow if you have a bac and a bypassed battery?

The original chain in a bath of oil overnight would make a difference.

Look up the purpose of the Oring chains there far better hence why most of the big boy bike use them. I've got 2 stings both standard ones Oring one not and no differents what so ever

don't forget to lube your chain bro,😊

Is it. A 420 chain size

I just have to say that it really bothers me that this guy is so paranoid about getting his hands dirty lol. It’s just grease lol.

No chain slack..? Good luck with compression of the back suspension..
