    2017 vs. 2018 Battery Packs (differences?)

    I can confirm that even at the track the MXR does not last any longer. I could do exactly 3 practice sessions on either bike. Logically, with the same battery capacity, but with the reported ability to discharge quicker and throw more roost (waste power), the MXR should last shorter. Battery...

    Single tracks with the Redshift EX!

    LOL! Stay away from big rocks! Was that rock also bigger than the bike's ground clearance?

    digiNow SuperChargers for Altas - Interest Check

    And we have a few Alta people here who might be able to help us. Rapid chargers are on a worldwide backorder, but Alta still wants to keep selling bikes, and those need to come with chargers. So, perhaps they would be very interested, if your product is a viable option. They might even want to...

    digiNow SuperChargers for Altas - Interest Check

    Thank you for your post, Morgan. I talked to Brandon before but he likes to go into such technical details that I didn't even understand what he was offering. Now I do! The Alta Redshift battery is rated at 5.8 kWh. With your 3.3 kW charger, it should be possible to charge it in 1:45 hours...

    Battery Technology and Best practice battery care

    Damn. I already started dreaming of a 500-horsepower MXR-R that charges faster than I can rest.

    Battery Technology and Best practice battery care

    Someone who would like to remain anonymous (@Vagus) said that the Toshiba SCiB battery could be our next hot ticket. Apparently, it could triple the current range of systems based on the 18650 cells. And it can recharge to 80% in just 6 minutes...

    I though about using a dyno too. On the second track this week I could not tell the difference between the MX and the MXR. I am planning to do a drag race this weekend to compare the two!

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    The High-Speed Rebound does not have a knob. But you can try and let us know. If you have access to a good shock bleeder, you might even be able to mix in the thicker oil without opening the shock up.

    I wonder how soon Mark will be opening his own Alta tuning shop, followed by a Tesla tuning shop. Do you even need a dyno? Or maybe a slightly bigger Kill-A-Watt meter could serve the same function?

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    An interesting approach, but then your high-speed compression and rebound will get messed up.

    Electric Mountain Bikes

    I used to own a Stealth B-52 electric bike. The manufacturer shows some awesome videos on YouTube of Ronnie Renner riding them and having fun. I bought one a year ago. It has 8 electric horsepower. Pedaling is optional, it adds perhaps less than half of one horsepower. Worst 2-wheeled...

    Availability of Rapid chargers

    Thank you, Fod! I am waiting for Jeremy to call me back. This is awesome, Scott. I really appreciate the offer and the support! But let me first check if I could just find a Rapid one and be done with it.

    2018 Alta MXR Shock Re-Spring and Re-Valve

    I went to a local track yesterday with both bikes. The MX with its revalved suspension did beautifully. The only thing it did not do beautifully is blowing through the stroke on hard landings and in some large whoops. I should try more high-speed compression. The MXR felt great and very light...

    Availability of Rapid chargers

    Does anyone know an Alta dealer that may have a Rapid charger in stock and available for purchase? I bought my MXR two weeks ago without the standard charger. The Rapid one was not available, and I did not want to pay for the standard one. My local dealer has no idea when he will be getting...
