Hi from Switzerland! :) Asking for a friend: does it revert to EPAC mode when you turn it off and on again? (which I hypothetically would like in case you get pulled over)... :)
Hey thread! Getting my S2 soon, this video was instrumental in convincing me that a 3rd party throttle would work on all EU bikes, by the looks of this thread I’m mistaken… It seems some of you are having no joy with the throttle suggested an Amazon with your bikes, Does anybody have any information on whether EU bikes apart from this lucky chap are software coded to not work with a throttle? It doesn’t seem to be any software that comes with the off-road pack sold direct from super 73, no code to make a photo work is that correct? Because if it is they should all work with a throttle right?
Thanks Simon, I can't explain why others have had trouble. Make sure the app setting is on unlimited and use the spare yellow with it. I took the gamble as the Amazon one was only £20 so I thought give it a go and if it doesn't work then cheap mistake.
Hi great video. Will this throttle work with the zx model? Also some people are saying that i can't access unlimited mode in the UK until I buy the offroad package with the handle bars etc. Have super73 charged their software or would just getting a throttle still work? Many thanks
Hi. Great tip for super 73 lovers. I’m just wondering is it gonna work on my z1g? I don’t have any spare yellow cable cords. Should I connect some splitter to pedal assist cable?
you are able to use a throttle on the z1 but you also need to change the controller located inside the seat to unlock the speed and allow the throttle to work its quite easy but will run you around £100 search up z1 throttle conversion or I can provide a link. keep in mind this only apply to the ZG not Z1 which is the US version
Hey Dude! Love the videos, just got the s2 today ! and the throttle , and installed it but it won’t work, any suggestions (and I’ve connected to the app and put it on mode 4)
Hey Hafsa, congrats on the new toy! Sorry to hear you are having trouble. Did you connect it to the loose yellow cord that came bundled with the spare indicator cords, not the display screen cord?
@@cei Thankyou so much! I ordered another throttle and works perfectly must’ve just been a problem with the one I ordered initially, love the SUPER73 videos dude 👍🏻
I'm enjoying your experience with your s2. What are your thoughts on the fenders? I find them quite short on the rear and the front one just does not make sense.
Thanks Clarence. I find them ok but I'm a fair weather rider! I've seen one video where the rider swapped the front one and reinstalled the other way around (pointing backward).
@@cei super73 replied to an email saying that they are working on better fenders. So I hope they push through. Meanwhile my bafang throttle is in and works like a charm!
Hello sir, great videos! I follow the tips you mentioned here and bought and connected the Throttle then out to test... The throttle works but if I use the pedals, then the throttle stops working and pedalling is super hard, I have to stop the biz and restart the throttling. Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance! Alejandro from Norway
Strange. If you touch the brakes the pedal assist stops, so check that. Also I keep mine off the app once level 4 is engaged and it is set to off-road.
May I ask whats your height? I am interested in the S2 as well, but I am very tall and the bike might not fit, I fear. Didn´t have a chance to test ride it.
Just to let you guys know I bought the throttle in the description for my new ZX and it doesn't work, followed all instruction tried getting it to work but nothing.
he can just say it's for offroad use only, and if he's stopped, just open his app, switch to mode 1, throttle no longer works and speed is limited to UK spec
🙄I whas wondering if its possible to combine a bafang mid engine with the engine that comes on the Super 73 R series and run them on 1 throttle simultaneously would this be possible ???🤗
No damage to the battery as far as I can tell. It's a standard technology. Super73 just try to charge more for their version. As for warranty, what throttle?
@@cei got a super 73 RX coming next month (was meant to be this month but it’s been delayed) and I don’t want to break it but do want a throttle as soon as it comes and Super73 have sold out of them
Hi. Great videos and subscribed. Q. Followed your link to purchase a throttle but no longer available. Do you know any others that would work with a S2?
Thanks!!! This one looks similar. I cannot guarantee it works but the specs look the same. www.amazon.co.uk/Bafang-Electric-Throttle-Motor-Accessary/dp/B07B92BM32
what happen if I only have an android phone but use my partner to enable mode 4. later when i connect with my android will wipe out to 3 just connecting with android?
@@cei yesterday the eu office confirmed me that there is not known bug in android related to that, could you check now please? it would be great, thanks.
I live in the Netherlands and i look for the same fenders what you have and i need the throttle also but your link is not send to dutch i can buy hem from that guy
@@cei 50 okay thats good but not really far you have the same bike hut i have black really nice yours do you know more mods for that bike i have same alarm i have ordered the same fenders but i wil more on the bike but i dont see something
I've just received my S2 and beforehand I ordered a thumb throttle in advance. I went for a different one on Amazon as it looked the same, some of the reviews claimed it worked with Super73's, is cheaper and had a quicker delivery. I've just given it a try and it works, yay! The one I ordered is www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B081ZLPWVR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have upgraded the firmware to the latest version and it's still working. I can confirm that it will reset to mode 1 every time you power off.
@@cei Thank you for the videos, they've been really helpful! I have found handlebar space is a little limited. I found the throttle a little cramped on the right next to the gears. So, I mounted my throttle next to the left hand grip and moved the controller to the centre bar, I figured that will have least use. The horn has been pushed across to where the bar starts to bend round so not ideal.I've only had a few minutes on the bike so far so will see how that arrangement works out.
You weren’t worried about voiding you’re warranty by using the third party throttle. Which they’ve confirmed you will do . This was my worry with an expensive bike .
@@cei I think you’ll be ok . After chatting with some ebike builders they assure me that there isn’t any way to detect that a non official throttle has been used . Enjoy dude 👊

Thanks again for the tips!!! Good point re LHS.
Well done mate
I’m thinking of getting one for one for a round trip to work of about 12 miles, i gather you recommend this bike. Great review
💯
In your video you said the throttle still worked with the pedal assist, does that mean you have switch on the off road mode first?

Thank you
