John, Have you heard of Sunlite Tires? I only have 700 miles but also looking for possible tires in the future. JG

Thanks you all for your reply. I just checked my XP and I get the following static measurements: Multi-meter = 49.6 v Controller = 50.4 v I typically ride only 5-10 miles per day (every day) so I only charge to 70-80%. I am pleased to see that the controller measured voltages is within 1.6 %...

How does the voltage meter measurement vary from the voltage reading on the XP controller screen? Thanks, John

I see Kenda Kraze offered in 20" x 4 1/4" does this work on the XP?

You may be able to back into a watt hour figure for the 48 v 10.4 amp-hour battery but is that really necessary? The XP fully charged is 54.6 v, I assume that the battery has 10.4 amp hours of energy at that point. But it is not all usable as you can't (shouldn't) discharge to zero energy...

I like Kevcentral for learning about LectricXP and other bikes too. His is a good channel to subscribe to. Other good channels are Park Tools - Bike Maintenance and care Jeremian Mcintosh - XP review, brakes, etc What other channels to you guys monitor for info on the XP?

I also use smart plugs connected to my iphone. The charger for XP stock charger charges at about 2.5 volts per hour. So I set the plug timer to bring me to 51.5 to 52 volts. Say 49 v + 2.5 volts = 51.5 volts; set for 1 hour.

I saw a thread today about frying the controller on an XP after messing with light upgrades and others members mentioning motor issues. I have left my XP electrical components stock. My only upgrades are bolt on (seat, suspension seat post, flashing rechargeable lights, bell, lock). So are...

550 miles now on my Lectric XP and loving it. I ride it daily including commuting to my gym at 5:15 am every morning to swim laps. I am very cautions as I ride on Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach, Ca. I have flashing lights front and rear and a mirror that is a big help in avoiding...

Thread attached: Codes

480 miles as of Sept 14. Riding daily and working perfectly.

John, That was it! Works well now. I found that the instructions were not clear on the orientation but you sure were. Thanks so much, John

I need help! I have an ElectricXP and I love the bike. After riding for a few weeks I found that my neck was sore. After some though I tracked it down to "no suspension". I posted a comment did several things including adding a new seat and suspension (pogo stick) seat post from Lectric. I...

There is lot's of great bike trails in Newport Beach. I linked a yelp article on the voted ten best trails but the detail in yelp is not great. I find that the app, Alltrails, is awesome for finding great hiking, biking and kayaking trails around the world. I purchased a life time...

I found that the stock charger recovers 2.5 volts per hour so I just use a smart plug to time the charge and then turn off at my target voltage ; seems to work well for me at $5 for a smart plug. Please let me know how it works. Thanks, John
