This was actually a really really nice and put together video. I got my Pro SS in early February and with it being my first e bike I’ve had zero clue on how to properly maintain a lot of it. Thanks for the vid!
My GF looks at me odd when I get excited for some hot T-boys content! Great video. Super helpful. Especially on the brakes which I think everyone in the world struggles to get perfect brakes... and usually give up and deal with the sounds.
When storing lithium batteries the best storage voltage is about 3.8-3.85v per cell. I've noticed that the way different bikes/bms's/controllers calculate the percentage varies. So it's good to know exactly where to leave things.
0:47 If you don’t want to wash a e-bike with a water hose you can use griots garage spray on car wash then best of show detailer with micro fiber towels & soft brushes for the hard to get spots🤷🏻♂️🤙🏼
Just got an mx4 2 days ago. This video and the new channel is exactly what I needed so I can properly maintain and fix it this upcoming summer. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing video so helpful. I’m glad you show us how to do this with the eride pro and Not the Surron or talaria those bikes get favorited too much I can’t wait until the eride takes off and gets more popular and the respect it deserves like Surron and talaria
I can't help but think this video was inspired by Lance tightening the headset on my bike a few weeks ago in the parking lot of Hells Revenge before our ride 🤣
No wayyyyyy! I was just thinking last night about leaving a comment on the next video to ask for this maintenance video. Got my first order from TB store super fast 💪 Do yall have a go to recommendation for upgraded brake pads/rotors for MX3?
Nice! Glad we got you taken care off! Best setup we run for rotors and pads are either Warp 9 2.3m 220 floating or go big and get Rippin Moto 250mm. The best pads are absolutely a company Called MTX braking here in Utah. We will sell them pretty soon.
Thank you for this video! Just subscribed to your new channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Going to order some parts from your store and get it reshipped to EU!
Great video covering the basics. This e ride is my first bike so I didn’t know any of this. I think my brake pistons shouldn’t come out as far idk if I should seek professional help 😅 💀
You got that fulcrum point seat coming in, the x3 looks like it goes right up the crack of the ass. 😂 i thought the SS seat was bad, and then i seen the x3
You’ll have a blast with it! Got mine a few weeks ago, almost at 400 miles, it just takes a few days of consecutive riding to get adjusted to the seat. It’s not the most comfortable at first but it really is fine once you’re used to it, unless you’re riding in eco going 15-20mph for 50 miles then the battery will be dead long before the seat starts to hurt haha
@@Talariaboys just got my eride pro ss, man this video helped so much, i had to reset the front brake cause it was rubbing against the rotor a little bit, thankyou for the detailed info
I have been looking for years and love the new eride and your vids, great job all around. I’m 42 and have ridden all my life and when I think of these bikes I think of batteries. I live in bar harbor Maine and unfortunately can only ride like 9 months without studs, my question is would you ever use a trickle charger or dose the bike come with one/best option for storage battery wise? I appreciate the info and all your vids, keep it up.
You would just check your battery every 3-4 weeks over the winter and plug it in to charge for 30 minutes here and there to keep it in the ideal range. These batteries aren’t really designed to be trickle charged.
Hey guys love the videos. I just got a E-ride Pro SS and I need a video on how to add brake oil and how to put pressure back in brake lever. Please help. Thank you
Hey, I’m just now starting my maintenance and was recommended the Maxima Chain wax (chain and cable lube) by someone at a gear shop. So I have the chain cleaner and the one they recommend but not the other two. Is there a big difference between them?
If you have play it just needs to be tightened, if it still has play after you’ve tightened they you probably did something in the wrong order. Stem locks are the best but you need a direct mount stem as well.
do you guys have spacers in between the caliper and the mount? looks like you added some washer spacers in there, I cant get my front caliper to stop rubbing against the rotor, just curious if thats how you fixed it
@@Talariaboys thankyou sir, im gonna have to grab some spacers and see, it does seem like the calipers are a bit too close to the rotors, spacers might be needed
Another great video 👍 I recently bought the talaria x3 / xxx black edition off road ( uk ) . Does the sting warp 9 lockdown axel blocks fit the x3 or is it different size ?
The solar e-clipse has a weird battery recommendation of immediately charging to 100% after each ride and keeping it there all the time, minus long term storage. Seems strange.
Honestly greasing the axles really isn’t that big of a deal. Very light grease just when changing tires. Does not need to be more regular than that. The wheels do not really have any friction with the axles, that is all handled by the wheel bearings.
Hey please respond I have an E ride Pro and while I’ve been riding lately, the breaker has been turning off mid ride and I have to turn the key off wait 15 seconds and then I can turn it back on do you know why that’s happening?
I’ve had my talaria mx4 r a year now since it came out. I’ve had a 54 tooth sprocket and o-ring chain most of the 4000 miles I’ve ridden the bike. Mostly all trail riding on rocky ruff trails, and knock on wood no problems with the bike! How often should I change sprockets and chains? I’m diligent on oiling the chain every time I ride. What do you think?
That's a lot of miles man! Nice work! I would recommend doing it now, I bet you'll see a difference in feel and smoothness. Plus less risk of braking it on a ride.tbelectricmoto.com/ use code (talariaboys) for a discount off a chain and sprocket if you want one!
What did you torque the motor mounts to after adjusting the belt? I finally got mine where i think it should be but I'm not sure how much to tighten them. Thanks for this video, truly!
@@Talariaboys Ok. Thanks. Mine were really tight but I found their recommended torque specs (25-30n•m) and just went with that. If it loosens up I'll tighten it more. I got a nice Craftsman torque wrench so it'll be nice to use it. 😄
Thank you for -posting such a helpful video about the maintenance for these bikes. I'm in the market and trying to decide between the Talaria R and the E-ride Pro. My biggest question between them is the transmission. I'm leaning towards the Talaria because it has a gear box vs a belt drive. Can you weigh in on which you prefer and more importantly, which is more reliable long term?
Both do work well but we prefer the gearbox and it has ended up being extremely reliable and quiet/smooth when riding. Belts do work fine and don't often snap but it does happen.
Can someone explain where these fit in to the different Classes of ebikes? I live in Ohio and there are 3 classes of ebikes but these types seem to be outside that designation. What class are E-Ride Pro SS, Surron, Talaria classified as?
I started to wonder if it is possible to upgrade the eride pro ss or surron with the talaria gearbox?, seems like a good question to me, and haven't seen nobody try it yet, would be cool if you guys give it a try😅, I bet would be good content if it works and you could do a tutorial video on the install process besides starting to sell the gearbox on your web page
We have run it all the way to 5% and then it turns off, we have had a couple issues where it doesn’t charge for a few hours after doing that. But I would say between 5-15 is fine. Then charge it right away.
@@Talariaboys on the eride pro am I safe recharging the battery once it hits 40%? Will that shorten the life cycle of the battery? Do I need to run it down to a certain percentage before recharging it?
Is that an 18/21 tire/wheel set up? Also, is that a larger rear sprocket? I just got my E Rider today, will assemble tomorrow but already thinking about getting a smaller rear wheel, larger sprocket as I don't need all of the high end, low end toque for hill climbing and technical trails is what ill use the bike for.. Thank you! : )
Someone needs to use a torque wrench to check fasteners, always. Perhaps I am too anal but it is my profession that is foremost. Headset bearings 18-20 inch pounds... That way, the preload is correct and slop free. Top loader caliper!! Don't forget to answer the question... Why? Why are these pads wearing unevenly? A sticky piston. Solve the problem. Confirm the repair. Done!!
since you've purchased many ebikes, have you guys ever had an ebike delivered in faulty condition? this is my biggest concern when I think about getting one. Im probably going to get a sting R.
We have had 1 come with some excessive scuffs and scratches but that was one direct from China with packaging that wasn’t as good as the other bikes available, they have since changed the packaging and it hasn’t been an issue since. Talaria has the highest quality standards we have seen and have excellent packaging and I really wouldn’t worry.
@@Talariaboysok before I ordered it I emailed them and they said 35 days until it would arrive so that’s why I thought it would ship sooner thanks for updating me!

Thanks for watching! Glad it was helpful, don’t forget to clean your brake rotor with some rubbing alcohol, we forgot to add that.
That first sentence is crazy 😆
Yeahhh so run that by again she looks at you odd when you get excited for some hot t-boys content 🤔
Ayee Yoo
that first sentence would hit diff if you were from Thailand
Good vid! Tip is to lube the inside of the chain, as in the part that is touching the gears. Also try to spray far away from brake rotors. 🙂
Good tip!
I’m glad yall did the headset correctly. So many do it wrong!!

Sweeet! Congrats dude
Lubed the chain 175hrs loving it! Thanks for the up grades.
Please support your local motorcycle and bike shops kids. Sure use a website for specialized items but purchasing locally is a win win!

Glad it was helpful!
Video idea: Batteries and how to pick the right battery config depending on whether you want range or power. Just an idea
Good idea
Good video. Worth cleaning disk brake, especially the rear after cleaning and those two sprays.
Yes good reminder! Thats something we do and forgot to put in the video
Great video for the community! Not sure why it didn't show up in my feed but it's a great video
Thanks!
Definitely check all your bolts before rideing.
just witness mark the bolts with a paint pen once you're done signing everything down.
Then you have a visual on if bolts are loosening themselves
Agreed!

Dish soap, brakes cleaner and WD-40 does it all
No all of those do have good uses but what’s missing is lube wd 40 might loosen something up for a little but 25 or so miles later there’s none left
Great video covering the basics. This e ride is my first bike so I didn’t know any of this. I think my brake pistons shouldn’t come out as far idk if I should seek professional help 😅 💀

i like all the information about this .... and i don't even have a bike .... lol .... maybe one day
One day man! You’ve got this!
I guess a gas dirt bike will be less maintenance, such as a klx300r?
Yeah what happens if you do have a little bit of play like you said I have the regular sock clamp but i wanna look into the stem lock
If you have play it just needs to be tightened, if it still has play after you’ve tightened they you probably did something in the wrong order. Stem locks are the best but you need a direct mount stem as well.
What grit sandpaper?
Doesn’t matter. Just don’t use very aggressive sandpaper
do you guys have spacers in between the caliper and the mount? looks like you added some washer spacers in there, I cant get my front caliper to stop rubbing against the rotor, just curious if thats how you fixed it

The solar e-clipse has a weird battery recommendation of immediately charging to 100% after each ride and keeping it there all the time, minus long term storage. Seems strange.

Would you recommend a chain instead of a belt drive conversion.? Would it be quiet or louder?
The chain drive is very loud. The belt is great for the power of this bike
Anyone know what type of oil to put in the E Ride Pro SS?
It uses a belt drive not a gearbox. No oil changes needed
