    That’s smart, I’ve seen some surron kids doing the mtb method for 40s but in the long run they’ll give out earlier since they’re not built for a 120lb bike, I recommend the fastace forks, 600$ and part availability is great.

    • @logan-taylor
      @logan-taylor  ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Oh sick! that’s partially why it’s so important to not spend full price on new ones haha - more money to rebuild them later! And that Fastace being made for the surron is definitely a game changer!

    I always build Ebikes like this.
    I've got a stealth bomber 84v 37Ah & with fox air shockers.
    Bought everything separate.
    All together for everything full e-bike = £380
    The only thing I can't get cheap or pre-owned.
    Is the cooling radiator
    hubsink & Statorade ferrofluid for Hub motors
    Which is £130.
    So after I buy them
    Altogether will have cost me £510.

    Nice vid but for me the coil 40s are just perfect and I am a heavy rider. I run mine with a green spring and 3 spacers. Also the forks in your video are around 550 bucks used. So buying a used dh bike is still the cheapest way to upgrade your surron and I just did the same thing like a month ago. Nice that you are keeping those code breakes. Remy Morton (Pro athlete) had them on his freeride bike which he uses for Riding huge jumps.

    • @logan-taylor
      @logan-taylor  ปีที่แล้ว

      If the coil 40s work for you that’s sick! There are some awesome deals out there. Local to me, I couldn’t find any sub-$1k float 40s unfortunately, even non-kashima. I think it super depends on your market, but pinkbike is another great option for some good deals.
      And the code’s have been great, awesome power. Semi-retro MTB stuff is so cool on surrons!

      Surrons are closer to light dirt bikes in terms of power & riding experience, but the mountain bike size makes them much more versatile than gas dirt bikes imho. True E-mtb’s to me are more about helping the rider pedal and climb trails rather than zipping around like you do on a surron. Both are sick.
