When I reached out to Talaria of Canada, I was told GR was used to calibrate the speedo when you change the rear sprocket. I also took a look at some teardown diagrams, the gearbox has three fixed gears bathed in oil. Mechanically, there is nothing to support variable ratios outside of changing the rear sprocket. I would like to know what ratios apply to what size rear sprocket since the differences between each ratio varies.
Hmm! That's very interesting. I had thought the same thing when I originally saw the different gear ratios. That Facebook page led me to think a bit differently. I'm glad to hear your perspective on it also, as it makes the different ratios even more interesting. I'm sure some perform better with a different sprocket! Definitely keeping it at the stock ratio until more info is released on them. Thank you for your info man!👊🏼
Tested it yesterday. When I changed GR to either extreme whether it be the 4:7 or the 9:1 bike performed exactly the same and the only difference was the speedometer would read 20 MPH or 80 MPH at full speed vs 47 MPH in the stock
@@HIB801 yeah man, I guess I just felt heavy placebo🤣 thank you for letting me know how it went for you! I'm going to reach back out to that Facebook page and question them lol
@@motortherapyinc The gear ratio options are there so if you change the sprockets on the bike - you will be running a different gear ratio than the stock setting. Say you go up to a bigger size rear sprocket - You can select the ratio you're running now in the menu and then the speedo will be accurate again. Nothing internally is changing. I'm assuming the person you spoke to means if you gear the bike too tall (for increased top speed but less punch at low speed) it would put some strain on the bike.
@@BrettDavis514 thank you for all the information bro! Turns out the guy was more guessing than anything. He apologized for me and I reached out to a different company (Talaria of Canada) & they confirmed exactly what you are saying. Again man, thank you so much for taking the time to explain it all to me. Totally makes sense that way!🤘🏼
Great video very informative 👍 Talaria sting looks sick especially stealth black I'm stocked about getting mine from ebikezilla I picked this over Sur-ron.
I think the gear ratio menu is just for recalibrating the speed-o for different size rear sprockets when and if you decide to change them. I don't think it affects the actual performance at all. Might just be placebo you're feeling lol.
I thought that as well, but did see the speed increase quite a bit quicker & didn't hit as high of a top speed lol. Thank you for the comment bro! Hopefully Talaria will come out with something explaining it.
Cap - capacity : basically amp hours help to estimate the range of your battery . Voltage sets the high water mark for your top speed (max rpm) or maximum total volume of work your motor can achieve , and Amps are basically torque … how fast the motor can get up to its top speed or the intensity of fluid inflation pressure or ramping acceleration of the current to get your motor to that high water line of maximum work.
@@motortherapyinc no problem, I just figured it all out i since I got my bike back in mid 2020. I’m gonna probably sell mine and get the Talaria. My bike has a hub motor which is great for the road but not so great for off-road. Love the videos!
@@erikjonromnes oh damn, that would be a sweet setup for a commuter or cranking wheelies🤪 you'd love the Talaria I'm sure, it's sweet! & thanks again bro!!
On a Talaria? I don't believe there is a governor on the Talaria, just the Surron and the Segways. My buddy and I did cut the green (with a black stripe) wire on his X160. That video will be out today at 3PM EST!🤘🏼
@@HIB801 yeah, I think he might have been lol. I've gotten mine up to 48MPH on the 3rd battery cycle, so if there is a governor, I wonder how fast this thing could actually go🤣🤣
@@motortherapyinc cool man let me know. When I google surron speed it says same thing like 47 MPH. is that before or after cut wire? Trying to figure out the speed difference.
@@HIB801 for the surron, you do need to cut a wire. There are some videos out there on the surron, my buddy that has a surron did it a while back, so I can't get a video of that. The new video thats coming out is of a Segway X160, so it's in a different spot.
Those ratio options are for recalibrating the speedo for different size rear sprockets. The transmission has a fixed gear ratio. It's very possible top speed could be affected by the ratio setting as the computer will be fooled by selecting the wrong ratio, most likely on eco mode. I'm using a 52 tooth rear sprocket, it would be nice if talaria had a chart for ratio settings for different size sprockets. FYI, my talaria came with a 44 tooth rear sprocket. You can still use the stock chain guard with the 52 tooth sprocket.
Thank you so much for the info!! I'm starting to see quite a few people saying that now, so I'm not sure why I was told otherwise from a Talaria Page..😅 how's the 54 tooth on the bike? I been thinking about jumping up to that, but wasn't sure if it would be too big.
@@nomoneynohoney3086 ohhhh, gotcha! I'm not too sure if that would affect it or not.. your best bet is to probably reach out to Talaria/Surron themselves
@@motortherapyinc Yeha the break light no more works after this for Talaria. Surron have the better solution with the connector, it looks like Talaria is sleeping. I hope the new Talaria TL4000 have better solutions and controller software. The biggest problem with the brake sensor is, my bike sometimes no more start because the sensor inside the brake handle have a problem.
Nah man, I'm just used to bikes that don't have bullshit saftey features. Your bike should not completely cut power on you if you barley tap the brake. Go peep our riding videos brotha, I'm far from a bad rider🤘🏼
use your phone gps and see how fast your going. make sure your bike is telling you the same speed. if its not change the gear ratio so the speedometer reads the correct speed. thats all the gear ratio thing does.
If you took half a second to check the description or read any of the comments, you'd realize I was told false information- from what I thought was a valid source. Sorry for the inconvenience & I hope some part of the video helped out🤘🏼

@@motortherapyinc GPS track it. The speed-o will change because it is calculating differently.
@@nxdboi smart man! Will do bro, thank you🤘🏼
Great video bro thanks just wondering is there a way to stop the mileage counter running up on the talaria speedo computer
Thank you bro!! Honestly I have no idea, but I don't think so
i think the gear ratio is for when you change your sprocket size to keep the speedometer correct.

I'm glad it helped you out bro!! You're welcome!🤘🏼
This issue is fixed with any new talarias being shipped. Correct me if I’m wrong.
What issue my man?
Can you make a video or maybe tell me how to cut the speed governing wire? I think it’s the green one.
On a Talaria? I don't believe there is a governor on the Talaria, just the Surron and the Segways. My buddy and I did cut the green (with a black stripe) wire on his X160. That video will be out today at 3PM EST!🤘🏼
@@motortherapyinc ya for talaria. Hm ok maybe I am mistaken. The dude who sold it to me said it worked on his but he could be confused.
@@HIB801 yeah, I think he might have been lol. I've gotten mine up to 48MPH on the 3rd battery cycle, so if there is a governor, I wonder how fast this thing could actually go🤣🤣

Where did the lever grips on the brakes come from?
Those are just from amazon! Super cheap, like $8 or so, but been working great!

@@motortherapyinc I think the 52 tooth Warp9 sprocket is the perfect compromise between torque and top speed.
@@zeroboyrick1717 sounds groovy brotha, thank you!🙏🏼🤘🏼
Can you make a video on how to remove the seat?
I could probably do that for you! If I do, I'll just add it into another video🤘🏼
@@motortherapyinc that would be great. I wanna do custom seat but unable to remove the seat.
@@MrTaknak89 ahhhh, gotcha! I'll look into it for you!
If i removal the break sensor, the break light no more works too right?
The brake light will still work because it's not actually a brake light, it's just a light that consistently stays on
Sorry i have forget to say, i drive the L1e street legal version. So i have a break light

@No Money No Honey oh damn, that's rough man! It's almost worth it to just get rid of it and have no brake light🤣
1:45 You need to ride better then. sensors are there to stop whiskey throttle and motor damage/brake wear do to bad riders.

@@motortherapyinc ya it comes wrong from the factory tho will tell you the wrong speed until its changed to the correct ratio
@@MotoAlias that i didn't know!!! Thank you so much man!🤘🏼
LOL GR should ONLY be changed if you put on bigger og smaller sprocket, plz dont make videos about things you dont know anything about!
