Excellent review Kyle! But when you road tested the bike, you stayed in Eco and never switched to SPORT mode. Hold the + button and the screen turns red to sport. That's where you can really feel the difference with the torque sensor on PAS!! I bought the Ultra 1000 with the 52V battery and love it so much! Also added a seat dropper post!! I'm glad you agree that this is an excellent ebike!!
Awaiting on Juggernaut Ultra Duo delivery late March.. 1500w And 750w mid drive..but mines looks 🤔.. great video Kyle, I think these are great bikes. I like the company.... also I got to show a lot of respects to CITIZEN bikes who actually brought this to my attention a while back
Hah. This is awesome. I've been looking at the Bikrix pretty hard this year due to them being in our city. It's great to hear feedback about them from somewhere that isn't local!
When I learned the Foxbat was delayed again I have to admit I started looking around at some other options and the Biktrix Juggernaut was one of the ones I considered. While Kyle thinks it looks a lot like the Foxbat it was actually the looks that made me stick with my Foxbat order, that giant logo on the top of the frame would really bother me. I've also become such a fan of Bolton through these videos I really want to support Kyle and Bolton so I'm sticking with my original purchase.
I'm considering a purchase of the Juggernaut Ultra 1000. However I have a 48 volt rack mounted battery from my rear hub bike. Is there a way I can use my existing battery as a 2nd or back up battery to the supplied battery on the ultra? Maybe a separate plug cord or?
For me, the torque sensing motor is the only way to go. With TS, the bike remains a bike, it is just and extension of the rider, instead of something with a mind of its own.
I think the Juggernaut Ultra by Biktrix is an awesome buy, blue is my favorite color by the way, I am however dismayed at the 14/21ah limitation on these battery packs. I live in a very hilly area, I live in a valley and all roads around me go up for anywhere from 1/2 mile, very steep to a mile, still very steep and when I say steep I'm talking about 45 to 50 degree incline on the average, some areas are as steep as 65 degree incline and those battery packs would be eaten up pretty quickly. That is why I'm building my own instead of buying a prebuilt E-bike. I live in south western PA, I'm about a half hour drive to West Virginia, so I have nothing but long windy hilly roads to ride on.
This bike is very similar to my Nireeka Prime bike. I have the same bafang ultra motor, 11 speed cassette, torque sensor, fat tires, carbon fiber frame, 50 miles range, and a more unique striking design and I paid under $3000. I was able to hit almost 35mph on mine on sport mode! It’s a beast. Please review the nireeka prime. It’s an even better value honestly. Tons of upgrade and Color options too. Here’s mine ibb.co/hRqvzfh
Just bought the Juggernaut Ultra 1000 3 weeks ago and am very impressed by the facility to use it and mid drive very strong and fast responsive motor. Just a great ebike !
very nice. I have just never been a fan of step through bikes. Obviously that is just a personal preference. I ended up ording the Blackbird because I love all the components on it. Though a mid drive might have been a little better for me, I just liked what you get for the price. Plus I love the name of it
Bought this from biktrix directly last fall. My first dive into electric biking. Mine has the sram 11 speed. I have been happy. We did have a few issues which were covered under warranty, but with COVID economy and shortages, it took a while to get things/parts worked out. I use it as a daily driver and being off the bike for a few weeks at a time kind was rough. (To keep it street legal, I bought your 750watt sticker for the frame. Wouldn't hold up under scrutiny, but might help out. I never run it over the lowest setting anyway.)
Great review! I am not only learning about what constitutes better quality when it comes to components, but getting a better idea of how much higher I am willing to go in cost on my next ebike purchase. We bought online from a company called Greenbike USA for our first ebikes. While we LOVE our folding 500W bikes, I never see any reviews online about this brand and I am seeing a lot of complaints. So far we have been satisfied but we think we want to also get fat tire bikes and ours have 20 x 2.125 tires. I'm not sure I want to go with the same company since I've not seen any reviews ...and other brands like Himiway , Bolton, Biketrix, Juiced are getting coverage online. When we bought the first time we thought we were getting quality because we have magnesium wheels and hydraulic brakes. I don't understand why some people seem to talk about 500 watt motors having to work to go up hills. While I live in Florida there are hilly areas and I have never had any issue losing speed or feeling like I had to work a bit harder going up a long grade in pedal assist 4 it kept a constant 14+mph. Sorry to ramble, but I am so impressed with how you comment on other brands and talk about ebikes not in a way that is in any way self-serving but with concern for meeting the RIDER's (customer's) needs.
Please dispense with the flashy and cheesy graphics and transitions, and please, get to the point. You talk too much. Already two minutes into the video and you're still not saying a thing.
Great video Kyle! I love that they upgraded to a torque & cadence sensor. As a heavy rider myself (280lbs) would you suggest the 27.5x3 tire vs. 26x4 to save some rolling resistance and weight? I pretty much stick to pavement or gravel, hard pack dirt roads, and maybe occasionally sand for a beach access. Also, do you think with the lighter 3" wide tires, is it worth upgrading the brakes or will the oem stock ones do the job? Lastly, any preference in batteries such as the 48V 21ah 1008Wh vs. 52V 17.5ah 910Wh? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. I will need a 19" frame so just waiting for those to come back in stock before making a final decision.
Rst guide is a horrible fork, even on the street it’s got a sticky feeling and just isn’t up to today’s standards. I have seen spring forks on Walmart’s bikes that feel better. I threw mine in the trash!
I absolutely hate tourge sensors. Uphill u cant produce enough tourge the bikr backfires and you just come to a stop cos your legs cant produce no tourge to bebhelped with.
I love the bike, due to it offers two sizes of frames!!! I still love Foxbat, but Kyle said the frame is to large, but it comes with bigger battery for same price....
?HUH? 1000W at almost $3K?!? PEOPLE, build one yourself. Get a BBSHD with the Ludicrous controller from Lunacycle, and 2 15ah 52v packs and make any bike 10x better than this video bikes for less $$$$. I built a bike that looks just like the Ruffian from Ruff-Cycles for $2500 with the above motor and it beats any bike I have tried, which is close to 60. Oh, and with the Ludicrous/ BBSHD I get just over 50MPH top speed on flat surface. And the dual 15ah packs get me around 100miles. Telling you, build one yourself. You will learn everything about your bike, and get to customize it to YOUR liking.
Kyle, Please compare this Biktrix Ultra 1000 with the Bolton Blackbird. The price is almost the same within $100 ($2599 Biktrix Ultra 1000, tax and shipping included) ($2518 Bolton Blackbird with tax insurance, and shipping) . Mid drive verse the hub drive. This time put the Ultra 1000 in SPORT mode and really show how it climbs hills and accelerates on the flat road. Show how well the Blackbird performs and how it's worth the wait. I challenge you to do it!
Tax isn't a fair comparison as that only applies in certain states or areas. The blackbird has a better fork, brakes (stock), etc, but the juggernaut has a bit more power with the ultra motor.
Wow Kyle, what a virtuous, altruistic, knowledgeable video. I’ve learned n Njoyed from ur clear xplanations n xcellent camera angles/perspectives! I really wanted to support/purchase a ebike from u but had to go with Biktrix for the reasons u xpounded upon!...I needed a bike right-a-way n purchased the juggernaut ultra beast (that arrived in 5 days/with superb packaging) n hav been testing the quality, power n range with satisfying results. I hope u n Roshan (Biktrix) work something out because I would lov to hav someone like u (in the US) to work with on my future ebike needs! Kudos again to u for ur selflessness n sharing ur knowledgeable enthusiasm!
Question, I absolutely love the upright seating position on my Luxe Folding fat tire ebike. Regular mountain bike riding positions are uncomfortable for me anymore. Is there anything else that has a similar position such as the bike I own?
WERE YOU TALKING TO ME? Sorry for blowing up your website messaging with rookie questions, and you answered most of them with this video along....thanks! Yes, I'm a total rookie when it comes to ebikes, but I want something really nice for my wife that won't break the bank for our first ebike; one for me will have to be later. As always, your videos are informative, honest, and enthusiastic. Thanks again for giving us more choices and avenues to explore and learn more. Keep it up and your business will continue to grow exponentially! "HOOP"
I want to enjoy the feel and ride of a real bike...ride 1 up V2...could give me a professional opinion on going with wider tires and an extra battery to carry ,xbattery is only 190.00 Can I plug in an extra battery to dead to charge it on the fly? mounting the extra battery on a bottle custom mount ,would be easy if works...I read 9 in 10 bike manufacturers/retailers fail 😳
Hey Mr Bolton ebike I really enjoy your videos.Is that code to change speed for all ebike or just yours.I have brought two ebikes ,and still looking. I'm not satisfied. A Speedrid and a step thru Sohoo ebike.Now I figured my mistakes because I'm still looking for my true ebike.I do ride the step -thru.
Good bike and price. Looks similar in specs to the Foxbat but for $100 more the Bafang Ultra is a steal vs the BBSHD. If you want an ebike for for trails, I think you will want a full suspension.
Just subscribe. I watched like 10 videos awsome work man. I bought a addmotor m70 do you do battery upgrades. And do you know what that bike could handle
Please let me know if Bolton Ebikes will sell a bike similar to this in the future. I prefer to buy one from Kyle. Thanks for your informative reviews. I will go onto the website and see what you've got coming.
Love the content! I ordered all the rad rover 5 upgrades for all 3 of my new rad bikes lol We live in Seattle (wife father-in-law and myself) and love ripping around on this new found hobby of ours!
Off topic but I now have my Raptor in my hot little hands. I wrote a review for Kyle but it's not up yet. Long story short .... it's awesome. I am in rapturous love.
I wish you had reviewed the entry level juggernaut duo with the 750w motor and the 48v 17 battery. I am on the fence. I only wish it was foldable. Is there anything around $1500 that folds with a 750 w motor, torque sensor, 27diameter wheels, and a decent battery size?
Kyle You should really build an AFFORDABLE ebike! Low income people Can not afford $1000$'s + A more Affordable price would be around 499 u.s.d. Keep up the good work!
There are ebikes out there in that price range, but they are limited in power and usually have barely acceptable quality componetry. The batteries have costs that, as of now, can't come down with volume, manufacturing efficiency, or anything else in the control of the bike builders.
@@blakeberlin6295 yeah I know that there are Ebikes out there in that price range, BUT not for Bolton Ebikes! They are all $1000's+. When you are a low income person No one in this world would be able to afford that
@@SmokinTaz07 I certainly understand economic limitations, but my guess is that Kyle wants the Bolton brand to be quality (not highest performance or even best) with compelling prices for the quality, with customer support that draws and keeps customers. I don't think he can offer what you need while still meeting his goals. Besides, if your needs CAN be met elsewhere, why must your choice be a Bolton? Good luck. Btw, I have been dirt poor and quite wealthy. I am thankful to be in good shape now, but experience has taught me that while I can never control what happens to me, I always control my response to circumstances.
@@blakeberlin6295 Yeah I know where your coming from, although Kyle with being the owner I'm sure he could be able to make a quality product and still be able to make a ebike for around $500 usd. I'm not saying the bike has to have expensive parts?, but better made then what other ebike companies offer.
Good review...I was considering this bike but opted for the Blackbird. Eventually deciding on the bafang hub drive vs the mid drive. One thing I was concerned about was the loudness of this mid drive and you can hear it some on the ride sequence up the hill. Ok on trails but thought it might be too much on the road even with knobby tires. What did you think Kyle...on the bikes road noise? Thanks again good review and glad you will be carrying this brand👍🏼
I thought the same thing when I ordered the Blackbird, but good thing they were back ordered for so long I cancelled and bought the Biktrix Ultra 1000 with the 52V battery. It has cadence/torque senors with 1500W and 160Nm of torque in this motor. It would be nice to compare the mid drive to the hub or not! The motor has a little bit of sound but not noticeable when riding 40MPH!!
David that’s cool. I’ll eventually get a mid drive full suspension ebike...decided I’d like to try the Max but first things first waiting on the Blackbird...soon. I have a folding bike from Driven to ride/tide me over and I’ve enjoyed it on my hike trips as the Get around the small town vehicle
friend has a juggernaut duo classic step over, he loves it and loves the lifetime frame warranty. But seems many of your bikes at 2800 like his are better bikes.
Interesting I should see this video now as the Ultra is one of my final choices before I make a purchase. I wondering why Bolton is carrying this line, with limited options available, when I can purchase this bike directly from Biktrix at the same price with more customization?
@@Area13ebikes Your link shows only the small frame available? I need the large. Are the bikes shipped from your facility if I order one from you? Thanks.
@@garygrow8373 Go to the Biktrix website. They have large frames in stock! www.biktrix.com/pages/ebikes?gc_id=10923067117&gclid=CjwKCAiAoOz-BRBdEiwAyuvA645Glwk2kftRLQ6a03Z-FBSRUVakanL5JE1OexsjiGnkpDPrnlgtrRoC3lsQAvD_BwE
@@davidyamashiro3319 David, I noticed that also. Why is the large frame in stock at Biktrix but not available via Bolton Bikes, yet they are all shipped from Biktrix in Canada? I guess I am missing something......
@@jamesstacy9825 160 Nm will snap a 9 speed chain almost instantly. I've ridden that motor it feels closer to 65 Nm. Bafang is notorious for not updating their specs.
@@davidyamashiro3319 You're only getting 65 Nm. Bosch and Shimano performance motors produce more torque. Along with being much more reliable and better performing with increased range.
@@stratostear Thanks for the info statostear! Please send me a link showing 65Nm for the M620. I had another bike that had a Shimano e6100 with 70Nm and there is a big difference. I sent the other FS ebike back after one week!! What are the model numbers of Bosch and Shimano with more torque??
Biktrix are a bunch of crooks. Roshan Thomas will quickly change his bragging of power and speed, to bogus accusations of user misuse and abuse to avoid warranty claims. After the warranty runs out you will find out what a real liar he can be. I waited over 3 months just to get it in the shop for a $90 clutch repair estimate and after he gave me the run around for another 3 weeks, it suddenly turned into a $380 main rotor replacement. I wouldn't pee in his mouth if his head was on fire.
Although your irrelevant comment based on the subject of this video might have some merit, there's always two sides to each coin. No need to get aggressive on this public forum. I hope you was able to take care of your repair issues.
@@DHooperIV Just doing the same thing he did to me. "Biktrix facebook owners group" page is run by the owner of the company. Say anything negative and its a instant ban. This is a local bikeshop literally in my front yard and i've never had such bad service before.
Oh Chris. It's easy to recognize your creative vocabulary. Unhappy because we said it'll cost you $380 (that's under our cost + free 2h labor) to replace your $980 retail bbshd motor as it wasn't under warranty anymore. Unhappy because your uncouth comments got you banned on our Facebook forum (as you still hold the record for most reported comments on the group ever). Unhappy because I don't think my staff of any staff should have to deal with someone like you. Your comment shows your behavioral pattern. It speaks more about you than it does about me or Biktrix. You can instigate, but I'm not getting into a pissing match with you. I'll leave that up to you. Enjoy your holiday season.
What do you think of the Biktrix Juggernaut Ultra? (We love the blue color)
Excellent review Kyle! But when you road tested the bike, you stayed in Eco and never switched to SPORT mode. Hold the + button and the screen turns red to sport. That's where you can really feel the difference with the torque sensor on PAS!! I bought the Ultra 1000 with the 52V battery and love it so much! Also added a seat dropper post!! I'm glad you agree that this is an excellent ebike!!
Is he your new supplier?
Great review. I wonder what they have for a full suspension fat tire.
Looks like the Foxbat
Nice looking bike it would of been interesting to know the top speed of the bike.
Great review. Biktirix looks like they have figured out high quality at reasonable prices. Cant wait to see the other reviews.
Awaiting on Juggernaut Ultra Duo delivery late March.. 1500w And 750w mid drive..but mines looks 🤔.. great video Kyle, I think these are great bikes. I like the company.... also I got to show a lot of respects to CITIZEN bikes who actually brought this to my attention a while back
I have the Juggernaut duo and I love it.
I was one of the people who ask if you could do a review on Biktrix, I am glad you like it
Hah. This is awesome. I've been looking at the Bikrix pretty hard this year due to them being in our city. It's great to hear feedback about them from somewhere that isn't local!
Talk about timing. Thought to myself, "I wonder what Kyle will post next" and then this pops up not a minute later 👍

Haha, Kyle answers the one question (at least myself) we all wanted to know, how fast does it go?! Awesome!
Very nice bike👍As usual a good review tho' I am curious about the packaging. Thanks Kyle 🤗
Beautiful! How did it go so fast? I thought class 3 only went to 28 mph...
You can unlock the bike in the settings on the display
For me, the torque sensing motor is the only way to go. With TS, the bike remains a bike, it is just and extension of the rider, instead of something with a mind of its own.
sharp looking and 1000watt ultra-tastic
How much? Can you ship to Portland OR?
Biktrix ships northamerica wide, plus your US dollar is worth more then CA.
Only the small size is currently available? I assume the other sizes will be available, but when?
Excited about this bike line however do you realize we have more info about the Ultra than we have about the Raptor?
Dear Boss,,how much first Ebike in Blue one??
That looked awesome!☺
Also is it blue one in folding, possible??
Jugernaut Ultra is a great E-bike for 2,599.00, wish I could afford that, must save. 😎⚙
At least you will get what you pay for. Personally, I want more and will pay for it.
I think the Juggernaut Ultra by Biktrix is an awesome buy, blue is my favorite color by the way, I am however dismayed at the 14/21ah limitation on these battery packs.

Well.... I asked for the Lectric XP fork video.....
What was the price foo this nice bike?
Right around $2600 as equipped. Waiting on mine to be delivered.
Not my size bike but good
Wow the zoom in then right back out is out of control...
I don't know how you ride going 39 MPH single handed. I would of thought those big steel balls you got would slow you down.
This bike is very similar to my Nireeka Prime bike. I have the same bafang ultra motor, 11 speed cassette, torque sensor, fat tires, carbon fiber frame, 50 miles range, and a more unique striking design and I paid under $3000.

Off topic but I now have my Raptor in my hot little hands. I wrote a review for Kyle but it's not up yet. Long story short .... it's awesome. I am in rapturous love.
Great review! Did I miss you talking about possible range?
Ordered the new 750w mid duo for $1700 shipped. Seems like an excellent value.

I'm contemplating between the biktrix juggernaut classic, and the dost kope...
Looking at rize rx too...
🟥

Wait a second though,,
You said mid duo for 17?
What bike are you talking about exactly? Is it mid drive ?
🟥
I have the 1000w bafang in the same kind of frame, would I be able to mount the Ultra in it? Thanks.
I enjoy watching the power because I am waiting for my Saber with BBSHD 1000watt motor!!
Is the clock on the display really a clock or just a timer? Does it stop working when you turn off display?
Nice bike overall. Been doing some reading on the Sr 71 Blackbird that you mentioned on your Podcast.
Jees i would love a comparison of all the mid drives bafang, Yamaha and bosch
Expensive
Seemed a little louder than the hub motors...
The blue is attractive.
I like that you can be honest about other bikes. It takes a good man.
I wish you had reviewed the entry level juggernaut duo with the 750w motor and the 48v 17 battery. I am on the fence. I only wish it was foldable. Is there anything around $1500 that folds with a 750 w motor, torque sensor, 27diameter wheels, and a decent battery size?
The ride one up limited would be my best bet.
I didn’t hear or see anything... thanks Kyle!
I love the "Noisy Heater" that points at "You know you want one"!
Another awesome informative video. Thanks
Big like! Thanks for the review. 💯😊
Did you already give the other bike away?
What brand of helmet is that you use? Looks like it has great visibility.
Pretty sure it's the The Tommaso Sole with the retractable lense/visor. I want one too been looking but it's been out of stock for 3 months.
Great review. Seems like a solid bike.
His bikes are to high
I like it! Happy holidays!
They all look nice.
how fast is it
I like it
Pretty sweet
Kyle You should really build an AFFORDABLE ebike! Low income people Can not afford $1000$'s +
A more Affordable price would be around 499 u.s.d.
Keep up the good work!
There are ebikes out there in that price range, but they are limited in power and usually have barely acceptable quality componetry.
The batteries have costs that, as of now, can't come down with volume, manufacturing efficiency, or anything else in the control of the bike builders.
@@blakeberlin6295 yeah I know that there are Ebikes out there in that price range, BUT not for Bolton Ebikes! They are all $1000's+.
When you are a low income person No one in this world would be able to afford that
@@SmokinTaz07 I certainly understand economic limitations, but my guess is that Kyle wants the Bolton brand to be quality (not highest performance or even best) with compelling prices for the quality, with customer support that draws and keeps customers.
I don't think he can offer what you need while still meeting his goals. Besides, if your needs CAN be met elsewhere, why must your choice be a Bolton?
Good luck. Btw, I have been dirt poor and quite wealthy. I am thankful to be in good shape now, but experience has taught me that while I can never control what happens to me, I always control my response to circumstances.
@@blakeberlin6295 Yeah I know where your coming from, although Kyle with being the owner I'm sure he could be able to make a quality product and still be able to make a ebike for around $500 usd.
I'm not saying the bike has to have expensive parts?, but better made then what other ebike companies offer.
Thank you for all the information you provide. Do you have any recommendation on a trike?
I'm going to give Kyle an E on audio quality sources. E for Excessive.
Bolton has a trike.
Nice
Good review...I was considering this bike but opted for the Blackbird. Eventually deciding on the bafang hub drive vs the mid drive. One thing I was concerned about was the loudness of this mid drive and you can hear it some on the ride sequence up the hill. Ok on trails but thought it might be too much on the road even with knobby tires. What did you think Kyle...on the bikes road noise? Thanks again good review and glad you will be carrying this brand👍🏼
I thought the same thing when I ordered the Blackbird, but good thing they were back ordered for so long I cancelled and bought the Biktrix Ultra 1000 with the 52V battery. It has cadence/torque senors with 1500W and 160Nm of torque in this motor. It would be nice to compare the mid drive to the hub or not! The motor has a little bit of sound but not noticeable when riding 40MPH!!
David that’s cool. I’ll eventually get a mid drive full suspension ebike...decided I’d like to try the Max but first things first waiting on the Blackbird...soon. I have a folding bike from Driven to ride/tide me over and I’ve enjoyed it on my hike trips as the Get around the small town vehicle
@@stevepadua Hope you get your Blackbird soon Steve!
How does that work with both cadence and torque sensor?
I thought I read the Ultra has only torque sensor.
Great review.
Glad I went with the Sabre I prefer the cadence sensor.
friend has a juggernaut duo classic step over, he loves it and loves the lifetime frame warranty. But seems many of your bikes at 2800 like his are better bikes.
Interesting I should see this video now as the Ultra is one of my final choices before I make a purchase. I wondering why Bolton is carrying this line, with limited options available, when I can purchase this bike directly from Biktrix at the same price with more customization?
Same options available. Same bike, 2x the support. ;)
@@Area13ebikes Your link shows only the small frame available? I need the large.
Are the bikes shipped from your facility if I order one from you?
Thanks.
The large is out of stock. Please see the details on the order page for how they ship.
@@garygrow8373 Go to the Biktrix website. They have large frames in stock! www.biktrix.com/pages/ebikes?gc_id=10923067117&gclid=CjwKCAiAoOz-BRBdEiwAyuvA645Glwk2kftRLQ6a03Z-FBSRUVakanL5JE1OexsjiGnkpDPrnlgtrRoC3lsQAvD_BwE
@@davidyamashiro3319 David, I noticed that also. Why is the large frame in stock at Biktrix but not available via Bolton Bikes, yet they are all shipped from Biktrix in Canada?
I guess I am missing something......
The audio is jacked in spots.
1000 w motor is meaningless. The only thing that matters is the torque.
That would be 160 NM
@@jamesstacy9825 160 Nm will snap a 9 speed chain almost instantly. I've ridden that motor it feels closer to 65 Nm. Bafang is notorious for not updating their specs.
@@stratostear I'll take my chances snapping a chain!! Love the torque!!
@@davidyamashiro3319 You're only getting 65 Nm. Bosch and Shimano performance motors produce more torque. Along with being much more reliable and better performing with increased range.
@@stratostear Thanks for the info statostear! Please send me a link showing 65Nm for the M620. I had another bike that had a Shimano e6100 with 70Nm and there is a big difference. I sent the other FS ebike back after one week!! What are the model numbers of Bosch and Shimano with more torque??
Biktrix are a bunch of crooks. Roshan Thomas will quickly change his bragging of power and speed, to bogus accusations of user misuse and abuse to avoid warranty claims. After the warranty runs out you will find out what a real liar he can be.
I waited over 3 months just to get it in the shop for a $90 clutch repair estimate and after he gave me the run around for another 3 weeks, it suddenly turned into a $380 main rotor replacement. I wouldn't pee in his mouth if his head was on fire.
Although your irrelevant comment based on the subject of this video might have some merit, there's always two sides to each coin. No need to get aggressive on this public forum. I hope you was able to take care of your repair issues.
@@DHooperIV Just doing the same thing he did to me. "Biktrix facebook owners group" page is run by the owner of the company. Say anything negative and its a instant ban. This is a local bikeshop literally in my front yard and i've never had such bad service before.
@@freshlysquosen sorry to hear that partner. Best wishes to you and all your loved ones during this holiday season and in the new year!
Oh Chris. It's easy to recognize your creative vocabulary. Unhappy because we said it'll cost you $380 (that's under our cost + free 2h labor) to replace your $980 retail bbshd motor as it wasn't under warranty anymore. Unhappy because your uncouth comments got you banned on our Facebook forum (as you still hold the record for most reported comments on the group ever). Unhappy because I don't think my staff of any staff should have to deal with someone like you. Your comment shows your behavioral pattern. It speaks more about you than it does about me or Biktrix. You can instigate, but I'm not getting into a pissing match with you. I'll leave that up to you. Enjoy your holiday season.
