The Benchmark Is Set
Juiced Riders is well known for creating solid and reliable utility e-bikes used as true car replacement vehicles. The ODK series of Utility e-bikes have dominated the segment while being nominated as E-bike of the Year at Interbike 2015. Now our new 2017 CrossCurrent sets the benchmark in the sporty, high speed e-bike category.
Solid Platform
The CrossCurrent is designed on a fundamentally sound 700cc aluminium bicycle frame with an integrated down tube battery pack. Every part is carefully designed, engineered and manufactured to the Juiced standard.
Sporty Performance
The CrossCurrent is all about sporty performance. We have designed the bike for maximum performance, minimum weight while maintaining an affordable price.
With the 48V battery and a geared motor with high speed windings, the pedal assist system can achieve an impressive top speed. Feel the high as you accelerate past the standard class of e-bikes.

The addition of the super precise strain gauge unlocks the system’s ability to know not only how fast you are pedalling, but also exactly how hard. The system measures your actual leg power output at 10,000 times a second, dynamically amplifying your pedal effort in real time.
The feeling matches and exceeds the effect experienced on the most premium bikes available today. This is due to the fact that with BOTH cadence and torque sensors active at the same time, you get the advantage of both types of sensors with none of the disadvantages.
Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Top of the line Tektro Dorado braking system
Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Power is nothing without stopping power. At high speeds, the ability to slow down rapidly is critical. We use the highest performance hydraulic disc brakes designed specifically for this speed range of electric bikes. Self adjusting pads provide fiddle free performance.
World-Class Features
Shimano Transmission With High Ratio Gearing
Special attention is paid to the transmission as e-bikes can move at higher speeds than normal bikes. a 52T front chain ring and 11T rear sprocket ensure that you will not “hamster wheel” at high speeds.
Simplified Control System
We have designed a very simple interface that only does exactly what you need. Turn the bike on, select the assist level and enjoy the ride.
Dynamic Assistance
Most e-bikes randomly boost you at the wrong times, wasting energy while making for an awkward ride. With the use of a sensitive toruqe sensor and the careful study of human pedalling power, we have crafted an athletic feeling e-bike that is able to rapidly spin up to top speed yet easy to ride at lower speeds.
The motor assistance in the SPORT mode is more controllable at certain speeds where the rider is naturally stronger. The boost increases as the bike’s speed increases past the point where aerodynamic drag forces can overwhelm the rider. The result is maximum fun while using the battery as efficiently as possible.
E-Bike Rated Tires
The CrossCurrent fits normal 700c bicycle tires, but for added performance we have selected e-bike rated tires with more tread and ability to withstand higher tire pressures.
Dial In Your Boost
There are 5 modes of pedal assist ranging from ECO mode for maximum range to SPORT mode for maximum speed.
ECO Mode
The eco mode just provides enough boost to cancel out the added weight of the bike. Use this mode the achieve maximum range or when riding with other unassisted cyclist.
Levels 1, 2 and 3
Levels 1-3 provide increasingly powerful pedal assistance.
Sport Mode
Sport mode is custom tuned for more athletic performance and peak assistance. Jump to SPORT mode while in any other setting when you feel the need for speed.
Multiple Frame Sizes + Step-Thru Frame Available
Super simple electronics layout + world class support
Why aren’t all e-bikes made like this? Juiced Bikes has a strong reputation in the utility e-bike market. Companies large and small depend on our e-bikes every day. Utility e-bikes have very demanding job and must be extremely serviceable as time is money in the logistics industry.
Designed to be supported
World class support starts with a fundamentally sound design. Our bikes are designed with hidden features to provide easy inspection and identification of issues. We target a 10 min swap time for any part on our utility e-bike and verify with timed trials.
The cables, running externally can be easily accessed. Parts are clearly laid out and easy to understand. The electronics system uses non-proprietary and easily sourced parts to insure your bike will be running many years down the road.
Parts Availability: The hard part
We have deep parts availability down to every screw. Hyper fast parts shipping with Amazon Fulfillment Service. Our World Class tech support and online documentation sets the standard for the utility e-bike industry and now we bring this culture to the Sport E-Bike category.
Professionally Engineered and Manufactured
Rather than market bikes assembled from off-the-shelf supplier’s parts, Juiced Bikes has developed deep cooperation with the leading e-bike companies to design, engineer and manufacture innovative e-bike products.
Partnering with Luyuan E-Vehicle, one of the top e-vehicle manufactures with over 1.5 million units sold every year, we have created a High Performance E-bike Division focusing on lithium powered pedal assist e-bikes for international and domestic markets. With the experience of over 90 engineers and technicians, we plan to make a significant impact in the new lightweight e-vehicle market.
Our line of utility e-bikes are engineered and tested to the highest standards demanded by e-scooters and small electric motorcycles. We put our Current Series of e-bikes through the same boot camp on the way to production.
Testing, Testing and more Testing
The e-bike technology at the moment is in constant flux. The challenge is to bring a product to market before it is obsolete. To achieve this feat and bring the cost to an affordable level, we must first make early identification of promising new technologies then test the hell out of them as fast as possible.
This way we can quickly understand the dynamics of implementing a new technology and get a grip of how the service will be handled. Our in-house testing facility is constantly testing in-production parts, testing pre-production parts and testing upcoming experimental parts developed buy our suppliers and ourselves.
We build test rigs and custom production tools in our massive in-house machine shop. Some test equipment exceed the performance capability of the suppliers who initially developed the part. In this way, we bring the best products to the market at an affordable price while helping to accelerate this green e-bike technology for the entire industry.
