    Ventura Slim - Thanks for the follow up video. I get anxiety watching your buddy’s Wired Freedom bike constantly shutting off and cutting out with no explanation. I can’t imagine being stranded with a 100 pound bike that won’t move……Keep the updates coming. Appreciate you posting your experience with Wired.

    I am so glad I came across this video. I have a new 2024 wired freedom dule battery. Only has about 100 miles on it. Yesterday I went out on it only went about 300 yards on flat paved road motor temp was about 80 and my bike did the same thing. I didn't see any thing out of the norm on display screen. I turned it off and then back on and it came back to power. Rode it for another 2 miles and it didn't do it again. Hope wired figures it out because it scares the heck out of me lol

      Wired sent him a new controller, he just got it installed. Hopefully that resolves the issue. We'll have to ride it for a while without it cutting out to know for sure.

    I firmly believe it has something to do with the motor cable connection near the rear wheel. The bike just had new tires installed before the issue started so that cable had to be disconnected. Ensure it's firmly connected and if that doesn't work dab some Deoxit with copper to help with conductivity.
    I know this because the same thing happened to me. These are not the same motor cables that were on the earlier 24 models - at least not the connectors. Once i added some Deoxit the conductivity improved and it hasn't happened in over 500 miles since.

    Looks to me like a thermal shutdown. David Cleveland has a clip out there somewhere warning not to take the Hentach motor above 230F. Has it ever cut out below that temp?

    • @VSlim45

      Yes, it has cut out below 230.

    • @jfly2249
      @jfly2249 7 днів тому

      The statement that these motors should only go to 230 is proof that David Cleveland knows squat about e bikes. The varnish used on the Wires is good to 400. The bike will shut off around 360 to protect the motor.
