In regards to the battery connections, the R pack had issues in the lower serial numbers but was sorted out. IMO It’s main advantage is being able to draw more from each cell for longer side stepping a lot of the thermal issues the A pack had during rigorous riding. For a rider of my skill...
This is a Redshift EX and is an A pack bike and does not have the R pack battery. It is not the same battery as the MXR. It is the same battery as the MX.
You won’t be able to relace or install a 21 on the front without grinding down the existing brake caliper. To do it right you’d want to switch out the front end, but that’s super expensive. I put 50/50 knobbies on my SM and geared it down just a tad and I love it in dry rocky conditions, while...
Correct. Packaging a battery that big and tuning for weight balance meant that a traditional link setup was a no go. I warned him of your exact reaction, and it’s something we fought at Alta as well. Challenging norms in a trend driven market can have serious negative marketing consequences...
I’m not privy to the thermal loads on this particular bike, but from other experience, the low delta in T means if you go with rads, they’re gonna need to be pretty big..
Something new on the line
I had a small hand in some aesthetic driven decisions on this project. The bike is an absolute beast. Not sure what his production intent is just yet, but thought this thread was as good as any. Curious about what you guys will think of it when he posts actual images...
This is a collection of prototype body work from the early days of Alta and a couple pieces from Redshift 2.0. Good man/woman cave wall art. All of it is one of a kind. Not really functional bodywork, and I make no guarantee about fitment whatsoever. Shipping is on you and subframes could be...
I unfortunately do not have any 3d files of the shrouds I designed. That is all BRP property. I simply only have a left and right 3d printed copy. If someone with a scanner is willing to come by and scan these, I’d be more than happy to tweak the files in cad to get them print ready again...
