Canada limits ebikes to 500 watts so the Lectric express is not really a choice anyway. RadRover, Aventon Aventure, and Velotric Explorer are similar and more likely available in Canada with a similar customer support reputation.

Torque sensor baby

Update: I've had the bike a few days now. I've updated my original post to change the motor version from the V20 75nm to the current C20 85nm version that the bike came with. When Walmart first released the bike it came with a basic LED red dot lights display, a 7ah battery, and the less...

Hyper 700c Class 1 Japanese 250w mid drive motor with 75nm torque. Torque sensor. Clearance sale $349. I was surprised at the performance of the 36v system. Ramps up to 20mph promptly, no issues with performance other than 20mph limit and no throttle. The grey color is just a simple gray...

Lectric is known for a high level of customer service. It is extremely rare that they can't resolve issues. It will take take patience on your part because the back and forth communication between yourself and them and their own internal discussions to iron out the problem. It may take a...

Maybe review the unboxing video and pick up some long zip ties at home depot. Here's the video link

Replace them with grips that have a locking ring if you like the ergonomic style that comes with lectric bikes (with palm rest, not round). If you want to switch to round grips then it won't be as important. Press on grips are much easier to slide on with a bit of mist of water on the inside...

Most local bike shops will do common repairs. You won't likely get them to work on the "electric" stuff but will likely get brake repair, shifting, tire, chain, gears and the like done. Ask around to different shops as you might get turned down the first few shops. For the electric stuff...

I'm confused. Do you mean the display that is mounted on the handle bar or the controller installed behind the battery input plug inside the top tube? The controller doesn't have glass... Call Lectric for the replacement display, they will send a replacement.

Yes, rotate the handle bar back, then rotate all the peripherals, grips, brake handles, shifter, switch group.. Because the bike uses a folding stem that is also adjustable, it's not practical or simple to do anything other than adjust the handlebar. Do the easy things first.....

Replace the current handlebar with a riser bar. Instead of mounting the handles higher, rotate them towards yourself. The stock bar is about 3/4" rise so switch them out with something that has the amount of inches you would like to have closer to you. Most bars are going to be wider which...

I'm not familiar with the xpeak but here is something that might help you pulling cable through the frame: Use the old cable to HELP GUIDE the old cable by connecting the end of old to end of new. You can use an allen screw or anything of similar diameter to stick in the ends, then electrical...

Capacitors on the electronic boards and power supply control circuits hold a charge kinda like a battery even though the power is disconnected (or battery key switched to the off position). Capacitors work different from batteries though and will discharge all at once so when you push the power...

The battery itself doesn't have an On/Off. There is a key that turns off the power on the battery itself but it is part of the assembly L Weaver is replacing.
