..."before you take the bike out for the first ride..." :) Totally agree, I'm not one typically to plaster logos all over my bike (I'm not a sponsored athlete, and don't want to pretend I'm one..) That said, I've seen some custom graphics that are really cool looking, which is what I'm...

I'm noticing the plastic on our Varg's scratch really easily... so while I don't normally do graphics kits, I'm considering it.. Curious what people have used and loved (or hate - avoid) (Yes, I know how to use a search engine, I just love leveraging the communities experience) Thanks!

a buddy who used to work for Alta told me they always took a tow strap w/ them (as they rode w/ other ICE bikes), that way if you run out of juice getting back you can get towed and use the regen to get enough juice back in the bike to get home... I think the mentions of being able to remove...

Question to folks who've fitted their bikes w/ the LHRB AND kept the foot pedal (using a double banjo bolt). Does the rear brake feel "soft" or do you get as good of modulation as you would w/ just the LHRB and the foot pedal removed?

My EX did 45 miles (over 5.5 hours) of challenging single track, and a good bit of fire roads (to connect the singles..) I returned to the van w/ 15%, but had a good chunk of the miles back to the van downhill (of course, I had to go up initially). What I'm seeing is that speed is what kills...

I'm starting to play around with the power modes (and regen) on my EX. 1. I'm struggling to find any actual documentation on how to do it 2. I don't see the ability to adjust flywheel weight (is this a future capability?) 3. it would be awesome to have 2 settings, 1 that mimics a 300 two...

I have the SC comfort, which needs to be installed... Has anyone done this and have recommendations? (Normally, the seat comes off and is easy to pull the staples to pull off the old and install the new, but w/ the Varg the "back end" is all one piece, w/ no obvious way to pull just the seat...

I also got a notice that the disc protectors will come later...

Personally, I'll be really interested in how adjustable the power curves will be w/ the EX, as I have zero interest in 80hp, but I have a TON of interest in a 2T like power band (in enduro, which is where I plan to spend the bulk of my time on this bike). Watching Eddie do his thing makes me...

"wine cork"..... classic! great stuff here, thank you... sounds like the typical "go through it all, grease and torque/loctite accordingly"... :)

Curious if folks who have received their Varg (assembled by a dealer) have experienced any of the typical issues w/ a new bike assembly (I go through all my new bikes to ensure the bearings have been properly greased, bolts properly torqued, etc. as the factory and associated dealers very rarely...

when asked about what they were made of: the guards are made of 20mil glossy vinyl, except for the lower frame guards which are 35mil matte textured vinyl. The vinyl is self adhesive (IMO., this doesn't sound very protective, but perhaps it would help w/ some of the paint damage from rubbing?)

I just talked w/ Stark directly, the EX bikes will come w/ the 120v adapter...

In the event anyone is still watching this thread, I'd like to report back that Stark did a classy thing and called me to discuss the matter. That conversation was honest and candid.. a great representation of how to navigate a journey that's still getting the kinks worked out. (No startup is...

fantastic, thank you!
