Juiced JetCurrent Pro vs Juiced RipCurrent S
On the numbers that decide this pair, the Juiced JetCurrent Pro is 26 km further on range than the Juiced RipCurrent S. Everything else is below, including where it loses.
Range is our estimate under the reference ride, not the manufacturer's claim. Cost is over 5 years at 3,000 km a year, on the same formula the cost-of-ownership calculator runs. How we work this out
| Spec | Juiced JetCurrent Pro | Juiced RipCurrent S |
|---|---|---|
| Estimated range | 73 km | 47 km |
| Battery | 998 Wh | 811 Wh |
| Weight | 22.7 kg | 22.7 kg |
| Motor torque | 40 Nm | 40 Nm |
| Top speed | 56 km/h | 45 km/h |
| Price | $2,299 | $2,399 |
| 5-year cost | $2,455 | $2,529 |
Where each one wins
- Juiced JetCurrent Pro is 26 km further on range.
- Juiced JetCurrent Pro is 11 km/h faster.
- Juiced JetCurrent Pro is 187 Wh more battery.
The Juiced RipCurrent S does not lead on a single measured axis here. That does not make it the wrong bike, but it does mean the Juiced JetCurrent Pro is the one to justify not buying.
What each one costs to own
Over 5 years the two land within 5% of each other, which is inside the error on any of these inputs. Cost is not the deciding factor here.
That figure moves mostly on the battery. The Juiced JetCurrent Pro covers about 53,227 km before its pack is due for replacement; the Juiced RipCurrent S, about 43,253 km. Ride less than that and the replacement never enters the sum.

Which one to buy
- Pick the Juiced JetCurrent Pro if you ride to the edge of the battery and dislike planning around it.
- Pick the Juiced JetCurrent Pro if you would rather charge less often than carry less weight.
- Pick the Juiced JetCurrent Pro if your commute has fast stretches where the assist cutting out matters.
Verdict
On the measured axes the Juiced JetCurrent Pro is the better buy, and the Juiced RipCurrent S needs a reason of its own: a colour, a frame, a shop you trust, a price that moves. None of those are in our numbers, and all of them are legitimate.
Range here is an estimate under one reference ride, not a measurement. Yours will differ with terrain, weight, tyres and weather, which is what the range calculator is for.
