RX1E Aftermarket Wheels?
New member here! Got my CSC RX1E about 2 months ago and its been a blast. I want to do some upgrades like getting slightly wider chrome aluminum forged rims but I'm not sure if there are any places that sell with the right hub, or if there's a way to by a non stock wheel and make it work for this bike with the right bearings etc.
Appreciate any tips on this, thanks! |

Welcome aboard! Your are the first CSC RX1E owner on this site so probably won't get any answers on that. Since it's such a new bike, you will probably have to do a good bit of research to find a direct swap. I know we have a few on here that would like to have the RX1E.
Looks like we are starting to get a few owners of electric bikes on here. I myself just picked up a little Evader for the campground. I think i need to add an Electric bike section. I know Venom Motorsports is working on getting two larger electric bikes like the RX1E. I think I need to add an Electric bike section. I

I don't own a RX1E, but isn't it basically a RX3 with an electric motor? good change wheels that fit an RX3 will for it...
I too have an electric motorcycle, a Sondors Metacycle....had my money down on it before they announced the RX1E, or I'd probably have gotten one of those instead.....but I'm happy with the Metacycle

Thanks, great to be here! I believe the bike is pretty much a direct clone of the RX1 but converted to electric motor from ICE engine. Wheels are probably exactly the same. I don't they don't sell the rx1 in the US anymore, maybe still in china, there's perhaps a chinese OEM or aftermarket parts manufacturer but no idea how to find them even when searching for the parent company Zongshen!

I am definitely keeping my eye on the RX1E as eventually I'll be tired of commuting on a dirtbike and ruining the ol' knobs, heating my legs with the air cooled engine when the ambient air temp is already 110+ degrees.
My gripe with the RX1E is CSC still hasn't bothered to provide real pictures or video of any color other than red! I would want to see what the dang blue looks like before handing over about $10k. |

Oh, what a coincidence! It wasn't from CSC, but Electrek.co posted a video review and an article that both feature the Honolulu Blue Metallic RX1E. Video:
