    Let me know, I'm curious. For me with the stock motor only and a modded freewheel (11T) on PAS 5 and pedaling fast on flat pavement I cruise about 27-28mph on a fresh battery. I've been commuting to work everyday the last couple weeks and I average 25-29 mph the whole way (all relatively flat).

    If you are getting 30mph on throttle alone, I suspect that is all from the mid drive motor and the hub isn't contributing?? Even if both throttles are engaged, the hub motor cuts out at 20mph...so once you go above that, I'm guessing it's all mid drive. Try this: Full throttle on mid drive...

    I think the ride difference is quite substantial. Of course if you are riding on smooth/flat pavement all the time then you won't notice much difference. But the second you go over any bumps (small or large) then there is a huge difference. You glide right over smaller bumps completely. And...

    OK...here is info needed for the suspension fork upgrade. I'll give a quick shopping list followed by more details on everything below. Quick list: 1. Pasak P35 20 inch suspension fork (Pasak P35 20 inch air suspension fork on AliExpress) 2. Neco H185 Headset (Neco H185 Headset on Ebay) 3...

    Haha, sorry. Was crazy busy at work this week. I'll get everything posted this weekend, including a how to video. I just got my second shock this week and will be adding the suspension fork to my second XP this weekend as well!!

    I have a white and a black XP. I ordered 2 forks (one white and one black). The white fork was delayed...so I got the black one first and I actually like how it looks on the white XP. So I'm sticking with that same black fork on both of my XP's. Changed my order of the white one to be black...

    I don't know for sure. I can't imagine why it would? Probably one of those things that if you have a warranty issue (defective battery, controller, etc) then there is no reason to offer up the unrelated information that you swapped the freewheel... But like I said above, it's easy enough to...

    LOL...I've never heard it called a flywheel before either ;) Not sure why I typed flywheel...maybe it was an auto-correct that I didn't notice since I typed up those messages on my phone... But yes, your link is the same freewheel I was referring to. The 11-34T one wasn't available on Amazon...

    Here is the flywheel I got (it's actually a DNP brand even though they don't advertise it on the listing). You can choose between 11-34T and 11-28T depending if you want the lower gear as well as the higher one...or just the higher... #Aliexpress US $20.59 24%OFF | DRIFT MANIAC Bicycle 7S...

    I was actually quite surprised how easy the flywheel was to swap. If you are comfortable removing your rear wheel to fix a flat tire, you are more than capable of swapping the flywheel. It actually takes less time than a flat repair. 1. Remove rear tire 2. Unscrew flywheel (just need the...

    As for speed, I'm 200lbs and can comfortably ride at 20-22 mph in the fastest gear and pas5 for an extended time (i.e. commuting). I can go faster...as fast as 26 if I pedal like crazy but no way I could maintain that speed for longer than a minute or two. This is all with the stock flywheel. I...

    So I just installed my 11-34 flywheel today. So far I'm loving it! Having that 11 tooth high gear is very nice. It basically adds about another 4-5 mph to my top end. On my original gear when pedaling pretty fast (about as fast as you want to pedal for any extended time) I would top out about...

    Cool. I ended up going with the hole version. I haven't done any long rides yet, but it does feel significantly more comfortable than the stock seat. I can't compare against the "no hole" version...but I imagine they are probably fairly similar. Will mostly just come down to if you want a...

    What has everyone done for their tires/tubes and flat protection? Inserts? Different tubes? Sealant? I was thinking I'd start with just adding some sealant to the stock tubes and see how that works. Does anyone know if the stock tubes come with removable valve cores?

    The last two Shimano links you have are for cassettes and not freewheels...so they won't work. Our bikes use a freewheel...

    Also interested in feedback on swapped freewheels... I just ordered the DRIFT MANIAC 11-34T from AliExpress. I won't get it for a couple weeks...but curious if anyone got this particular freewheel and their feedback using it...

    Which version of the cloud 9 did you get? I'm debating between tge "normal" one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000H87PUI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_NvbcEb7D74XNC and the one with the hole in the middle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002MKFRQI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_dzbcEbTG348M6

    Thinking of upgrading my seat. It seems the cloud-9 and bikeroo are the two most popular when it comes to "comfy" cruiser type seats. Anyone know which of the two is better or more comfy? Or does it just boil down to personal preference?

    Yes, I think I agree with you. After a bunch more research yesterday and learning a lot about the different headset types...I do think it would be possible as well. I asked Lectric about it and they said the bike comes with a 1-1/8" semi-integrated headset (threaded). So I don't think it...
