My 2nd ebike in and a big jump from my 1st dual motor and I couldn’t be more than happy!! What I’m doing next is kinekt suspension stem(i ordered but the wrong size) and a suspension seat post( i was supposed to order but ordered 2 stems like a bozo) 😂 but what are some other things anyone can recommend? From accessories to upgrades🙏🏾

One of the biggest drawbacks of this bike is the heat from motors that powerful.

They come in packages of 6, but are sized for bigger motors. Unfortunately, there's nothing else like it on the market. So I got some m5 40-60mm double ended bolts/washers. Slowly torqued the heat sinks until their curvature better fit the two motors.
I ended up using 4 packs. 2 sets of 6 per wheel made for 3 "circles" of 4.

I’ve been tryna do some research on them but support on it seems kind of slim. Where or what guided you with yours? Something I’d definitely want to do. When I noticed today the temps got over 190 and I was like okay let’s chill out for a few lol and it was a 65 degree day

Guide? Honestly, I got lucky with them working better than I expected. I was fully prepared for them not to bend when torqued and instead just settle for ~40% contact area, because 40% is better than nothing considering there aren't any alternatives. The fact that they bent when torqued was a bonus. They're crazy thick, which is why I was surprised.
As far as I know, the only other cooling solution on the market was statorade which isn't compatible with how the predator motors work.

I appreciate you and your help 🙏🏾 i definitely am and will be adding them. Already my temps are kinda going high and I keep letting them chill. But something I HAVE to and will do. I just think it’s harder than it is in my head then it actually is lol

That's pretty much all you need to do unless you ride at night then I recommend lighting.

Oddly forgot about that, extra bright ass Light. Plus one that isn’t draining battery. Everything counts with this 😂

Check out Electric All Wheel on YouTube. He does some upgrades on these Wired ebikes.

EAW is great, but be careful with his recommendations, sometimes he overspends on stuff that doesn't make a huge difference. White walls would look sick though, ngl.

Wired bikes seem like they are amazing for commutes. Let us know how long it lasts
