Juiced plus Grin, great things to come.

Juiced plus Grin, great things to come.

2016 Mar 20th

Two dynamic young minds at the forefront of the electric bike industry came together recently in China.  Tora Harris, founder of Juiced Bikes, and Justin Lemire-Elmore, founder of Grin Technologies met up at the factory that builds Juiced bikes.  

Both are passionate advocates of car-free transportation. Tora was presumably behind the camera taking these shots, so you are only seeing the Grin guys, Justin and Robbie, in these photos.

 

Justin has been working on a new motor controller, and a quick test proved that the PhaseRunner controller will get more power and speed, and less noise, out of the ODK U500 cargo bike without changing the motor or battery.  Plans are afoot to produce a special Juiced version of the PhaseRunner that will be plug-and-play on the ODK U500. This controller will also be plug-and-play compatible with the Grin Cycle Analyst digital dashboard, and this upgrade will open up a whole bunch of options for the ODK.  

The CA is an indispensable tool if you are serious about using the ODK to its full capabilities.  You will know exactly how far a charge will take you, and you can monitor the health of your battery along with a bunch of other useful info.  The CA3 can also be part of an upgrade to torque sensing pedal assist, and other accessories such as lighting that is powered from the main battery.
