Dualtron Ultra Brake Upgrade to Magura MT7 - Teardown and Installation!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

The entire process took approximately 3 hours, certain sequences have been sped up in post and I managed to bring it down to about 25 minutes.
The swap is definitely not straightforward and you will require special tools which I have highlighted in the video as well.
I believe an experienced bicycle shop should be well equipped to handle this upgrade.
Lastly...ENJOY the video and remember to SUBSCRIBE for more of such videos!

    Hi Jamie. thx a lot for your videos. Especially this one. That helped me a lot, to upgrade my Dualtron Spider with a Magura MT5e. The only thing/challenge I have actually with it: Brakelights are not working. Soldered cables correctly. When I trigger the throttle and start braking, the motor gets an "off-signal" and it brakes perfectly. If i let the brake go and still pull the throttle a bit, motor get´s on again. Is there anything todo on the controller itself? Or do I need something extra connected? Checked everything twice and have no idea, why brakelights will not flash up.

    I'm no handy man so theres no way im gonna try to do this myself and mess up my scooter. You had several professionals with professional tools work on your scooter and even though it was fast forwarded, took 25 mins!! Way too complicated for the average person to tinker with. But thanks for another informative video! I'm curious since I never experienced it, but what happens when the ultra cuts off? and how do you fix it? If the electronic brakes does in fact put a lot of stress on the controller, they should have made the upgraded brakes standard. Yes the price would be higher, but in the long run would be more efficient and less future maintenance. I really wish I'd known about this issue before receiving my scooter. I would've asked the seller to install the upgraded brakes before sending it to me. How much did they charge you for installing the brakes? Anyways, thanks again Jamie for another great video!!

    +nicc0tine69 the power cut off I experienced was a mistake on my part...I had the brake lever depressed which is a safety feature built into the ultra..meaning to say, if you're at standstill, and pressing on the brake levers, applying throttle does nothing. I mistook that for a power cut...the entire installation cost me almost a grand in singapore dollars. I am certain an ebike shop where you are will be able to sort the dualtron easily...

    hello Jamie, actually a good idea to show the installation so, but what I personally do not like at all is the strange brake light switch, there are better solutions, this way I look more like a compromise than expert! I asked about Magura and there are even two different solutions for that! First a pressure switch which is installed in the oil line and secondly a magnetic switch, both look more professional! I personally like the solution with the cable ties not so much! ... as soon as mine is installed I will present it here, but it will take a while, because my vacation in the Philippines is due first! with best regards from Vienna / Austria!
