In the video Dakota states that the wheel operates in assist mode until you use the throttle. Do you know how much assist? One of the Bosch systems is assist only and allows you to set 2x or 3x assist. Wondering what the setting is on GeoOrbital.
I am curious too how much assist is really given. I would be commuting 20 miles one way and I don't want wheel resistance.... How much is the little amount. All would it slow me down if I am able to pedal faster than 20 mph?
this guy that showing you how to do the orbital wheel you doing a great job if you can understand what he saying then maybe not to be riding a bicycle but I really appreciate his throne is in showing different kinds of braking systems and bikes I really wish more people would do this with their products
How is the sound level? Does the small drive wheel spinning at a high rate result in a loud motor sound or is it rather quiet? I ask because I saw another external kit that used a small wheel pressed against the rear wheel and it was rather annoying, sounding a bit like a mixer.
I've customized a 26" beach cruiser with ape hanger handlebars. My concern is, will the throttle cable be long enough to reach an operable position next to my grip?
can you please define the situations where it is in a regeneration mode again?and is there a USB charging? something that recharges when on the road without that large power converter?
can I use WD 40 on the geoorbitals moving parts connected to the rim of the tire in order to reduce the amount of resistance coming from the wheel? i feel like my pedal assist is not working as well as other e bikes. I slow down when moving downhill compared to a normal bike. and when I lift the wheel n the air, and then throttle, should that be rotating the tire as well as the motor? it looks like the motor doesn't catch unless the wheel is on the ground. please help!
We offer a bake adapter so the wheel will fit on any bike, more details on our website. We mount a cable operated caliper inside the wheel and it works great.
What happens if I install this wheel on an Ebike with a rear motor? For example (to save money) I was considering putting this wheel on a SONDORS Thin => 2 Wheel motorized drive. Would this work? or would the extra weight nullify the effects OR would I not experience much of a difference compared to just one tire?
Hi we call this a EE-Bike some of our creative customers have already built them and they are working for them. We are at the same time also working on our own version. Yes it works and its usually has the WOW effect. Good luck and please wear a helmet.
hi we are working on a public version of our public safety wheel which will be available with a brake adaptor and larger tire - check out www.geoo.com/safety
I wanna see how it performs uphill..every single video review is about how to install the freaking wheel but none of them about going uphills or so. 🤦♂️
Noticed you don't have a gear shifting box on your bike. I have short thumb, it was hard for me to press the speed paddle reaching beyond my gear shifting box. Suggesting: longer optional paddle. Please do not discriminate short thumb people
Love my GeoOrbital wheel & this is a great video. Keep rollin'!!!
Wish I had mine :(
Please tell me where you get it
I wish more people would post their videos of the GeoOrbital they received. I definitely plan on doing that when I get mine.
very good instructions - I had no problem setting up my bike!
How can I buy that electric wheel bike

how long does it take to deliver to New York City
Are the extender arms mentioned at 6:45 included, or are they a separate purchase?
Fletchman hi we will be including these in the future and they are available on request at no additional charge. Only a few bikes actually need them.
Hello
How heavy is the Geoorbital, switch included?
Does it have a USB socket so one can use the battery to power other devices?
what can I do if the tire is worn out
классное колесо,но где его купить или достать,???вопрос🤔🤔🤔
I've customized a 26" beach cruiser with ape hanger handlebars. My concern is, will the throttle cable be long enough to reach an operable position next to my grip?
Don we now offer an extendable throttle please measure the length you need the cable to be and add it to your order.
can you please define the situations where it is in a regeneration mode again?and is there a USB charging? something that recharges when on the road without that large power converter?
+jeff clifford check out the 12min mark we go j to triggering regen. We'll have a Q&A video soon about USB charging.

Where do you get this wheel
I got a question please, what about if I have a "disc brake"? I can't use it anymore and I need to install old kinds of brakes?, thanks

I just have to figure out the front fender, not a problem!

Disc brakes adapter? ...and I have a 29 inch wheel
hi we are working on a public version of our public safety wheel which will be available with a brake adaptor and larger tire - check out www.geoo.com/safety
so if I ride it while downhill or simply paddling really hard, it will charge by itself?
Yes, you will be generating some electricity which goes back to the Battery.
very little
Does the Geo orbital wheel freewheel with the battery out?
Quinton Lindgren yes, it will freewheel with the battery removed
Chici ,so if you got a dead battery during a ride and pulled out the battery, would the bike ride with the same resistance as a non-electric bike?
Quinton Lindgren there's still resistance because of the regenerative breaking, wether the battery is installed or not
it feels great to pass gas stations, know I need to see how to do my ATV with geo wheels?
YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR RUBBER TIRE OR TIRE FOR AN INFLATABLE ONE
Can I use both, with manual and auto?
Nadya yes you can use the throttle and pedal as much as you want all at the same time.
I wanna see how it performs uphill..every single video review is about how to install the freaking wheel but none of them about going uphills or so. 🤦♂️
hi
i am Mohammed from Syria
How can I get GeoOrbital Q & A?
please reply
Thank you
What would prevent me from having one on the back as well to improve the distance?
I wonder how much faster you could go if you hooked up 2 geoorbital wheels, one in front and one in back!
Not recommended! Speed is regulated to a Max of 20mph.
Noticed you don't have a gear shifting box on your bike. I have short thumb, it was hard for me to press the speed paddle reaching beyond my gear shifting box. Suggesting: longer optional paddle. Please do not discriminate short thumb people
Got it with mine!
Chief Technical Officer of the crappiest e-bike drive ever
you guys thought of everything
At $1400 it's a rip off. You could bike a real ebike for that price.
I got a question please, what about if I have a "disc brake"? I can't use it anymore and I need to install old kinds of brakes?, thanks
