For those of you with heavy E-bikes that are using mechanical disk brakes, I HIGHLY recommend making the upgrade to these Tektro Dorado E725 brakes. Install was simple, even for someone without much bike mechanic experience, and the stopping power far exceeds what I was expecting. Worth every penny.

So far so good. I live in an area with steep and long hills. I have not bothered to figure out the physics of a 70lb bike with a 200lb rider traveling 30mph down a 19% grade hill, but I know it was enough to smoke my single puck disk brakes. The increased surface area on the 725 pads help me to be a bit less tense on the way down.. Roshan/Biktrix got the brakes to me quickly and all hardware was included. Thanks guys !

I was pleased to know that the people at Biktrix are willing to work with me to get what I needed, very happy with the product I received.

Waiting to hear back from Alex Willems about bleed kit. I believe I am missing a bleed kit. And the rear brake line is way to short. I need at least 2100mm for my fat tire electric rear brake.

Not easy getting 4-piston brakes with a Bafang motor cut off, but Roshan and the team made it easy and shipping anywhere in the world is a breeze. Thanks so much.

Added these as an upgrade to my Juggernaut Ultra. Vastly superior to the mechanical disk brakes on my old bike! A must when flying down hill at 40 mph on a 70lb bike!

First off, Roshan and team are the guys to work with. I built a custom bike from a Yuba Mundo Lux. Strapped a Bafang BBSHD to it and the stock brakes couldn't handle the force needed to stop me and my kids.

Doing a bit of research, I wanted integrated sensor cables to make sure everything thing worked, everytime over the magnets and tape method.

Found biktrix online and reached out via chat to make sure I was getting the right parts. They asked for pictures to make sure I bought the right mounts (IS) for my bike. A step above what I was expecting.

Received the parts and installed them. One rotor was bent and reached out and they sent a replacement. No hassle, just "we understand, it's on its way."

Great customer service, shipping was fast international, I would buy from them again. And now I have confidence that my bike can, and will stop with out shaking now that I have better brakes.

Cheers!

Well considering I still haven't gotten a delivery a month after order - its poor. I'm hoping today.

It is a must on the 1000w engine. Makes a huge difference - just fantastic.
I feel it is still too big to optimize the enormous climbing capability of the Juggernaut, so I am now trying a 48T cassette as well that Roshan has recommended in the back.
My objective is to be able to climb at 5km/h in first gear at a mid rpm - vs. 12kmh with the original mount (46x34) which is much too fast for serious technical terrain.
With the new 36X48 I should get there...
then only tires adherence - which is great in the first place - will stop me :-)

There only one more (theoretically better) possibility. A 30T made by Luna. Anything I read about it is broken teeth and chain derailing. This problem does NOT exist with the Lekkie 36T and my 4” tires, despite very agressive use.

I’ve had the bike out only a couple of times but it’s enough to appreciate the combination of features like a step thru fat bike with suspension,hydraulic brakes,1000 watt mid drive,rohloff 14 speed hub,built in rack,front and rear fenders,20 a.h. integrated battery,cruiser ergonomics and more. I appreciate Roshan responding to this build as this was a difficult if not impossible chore on my part ( try finding a bike like this online). Thanks to Roshan and the crew for making this build possible. Will update with pic. Later.

Great, plus financing, sweet products.....

The rotor was bent up front now I’m getting a long pronounced noise when I brake hard. Frustrating for a upgraded feature on a 4.6k bike
