r/Super73

My 15 yr old son’s Super 73 R Adventure Series SE needs the front and rear brake pads replaced (rear tire soon too) asap and due to financial reasons, I can no longer afford to keep taking it back to Scheel’s or another shop for this type of repair or maintenance. His father passed away suddenly and was the one that took care of these things for our family. Other than the actual Super 73 website, I am so lost and don’t know which parts are considered quality or where to buy them to do the repairs ourselves (courtesy of YouTube training) that won’t also break the bank or take forever to be delivered. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

My z1 battery lights up, I’ve replaced the wiring harness and it still doesn’t work. I’ve taken it to a bike shop in my town and they were useless. Possibly the controller? Anybody have a cheap controller recommendation?
Any help welcome!

i understand that the new B1G SE are locked to 20mph which sucks, but with that being said i can’t even connect to the 73 app if i wanted? so since they limited them to 20mph they won’t let the new ones be connected at all?

Just got a new bike, love it but need more speed. Is there anything I can do? I reached out to handleworks , but there controller isn't compatible to the A series.

I downloaded the bikee app, but it doesn't connect with my bike...

Any one have any tips?

Thanks!!!

my bike be dusty i dont off road but at least want keep it clean what products do you recommend that could spray or a method to wash my bike give it that shine to it…

So I got myself a new ebike a few days ago I already got some accessories for it (helmet and alarm system w/ tracker) but I'm still looking for a lock. Does anybody have any recommendations for a durable lock that would be long enough to fit through both wheels? Something that could resist cutting tools would be preferred, thanks!

Hey everyone, I’m hoping someone here can help me troubleshoot an issue I’m having with a Super73-R Brooklyn I just bought used recently. The bike is completely unlocked and set to PAS 4, but lately, it’s acting pretty sluggish. The throttle completely caps out at 16 mph, but if I use pedal assist, I can get it up to 19 mph. The weirdest part is that about once a week, I’ll randomly turn it on, and it’ll hit 22 mph without a problem, but that "lucky" performance never lasts.
The bike came with about 3,000 miles on the original controller and battery, so they’ve definitely seen some love. Has anyone dealt with this kind of inconsistent speed capping on an R-Series before? I'm trying to figure out if this sounds like an app/controller firmware glitch, a loose throttle connection, or if the battery is just starting to show its age after those 3k miles. Any advice or troubleshooting steps would be awesome. Thanks!

Bought my ZX bike last year after my previous one was stolen, and honestly I’ve been struggling with the lower top speed on the new one. I used Bikee for a while, but it seems like it’s no longer unlocking the higher speed modes.

Has anyone found a workaround or another app that still works reliably with the newer controllers/models? Open to any recommendations.

I just got my chai ranger and it did not send me with a charger so ive been using the stock super charger and let it charge for 2 hours and it got 15 percent. are there any better chargers for chi's in stock right now

Dude is selling his S1 with keys to the battery, charger, everything. It just needs some work on the brakes and is a little dinged up cosmetically. Otherwise he recently replaced the battery and is selling for $700. He's taking $200 off with a trade I have.

Can you replace the stock battery on an S1 for another battery with the same pin layout? Or is there a handshake to verify it's an S73 battery?

Would this be worth my time? He's cool with me riding it out and seeing how it feels.
