    Headlight voltage?

    If memory serves me correct I believe it is 48 volts. If you get this light it's extremely bright. I have been using this since October and never turn it off when riding with no problems. You can also get the proper connections from AliExpress so you don't have to cut any wires... #Aliexpress C$...

    No problem at all...I read that this derailleur wouldn't work for with a 34t sprocket but tried it and it works fine. The chain length is good too..here's a pic of one of our bikes in first gear..

    I think it also depends on how often you pedal with the power turned off. I often ride without the pedal assist on and without the low gear it would be substantially harder particularly with a head wind.:eek:

    How about this to spread the rear fork?

    None of this is necessary...if you have the bike upside down it's really not that big a deal. I have had the back wheel off 4 times..it's a bit of wiggling and a rubber mallet..

    Go 11t to 34t ...34t is so much better on steep dirt trails, climbing over roots and starting out on a hill...it's way better with 11t as well.and with 11t you don't have to pedal like crazy when going fast

    I have that set up on two XPs .. It's way better and works great. Make sure to remove the washer that is on the original freewheel, you don't require it because of the backspacing it's a little fiddly to set up but once its set up it works so much better in first and seventh and all between.

    The bell was there in form only 😳 You can buy various electronic horns for about $10.00 on AliExpress and there rechargeable. I know they are supposed to come with a bell but you didn't miss much.

    Problem is if it's not sent by USPS it's gonna be expensive. The courier companies charge a brokerage fee that is an absolute rip off. I once shipped a chromoly nut from California to my house. It came in an envelope. I paid$12 shipping and got a bill from UPS 3 months later for $55 brokerage...

    Bought 4 bikes...I live in Langley B.C...paid $1355 each Canadian with exchange and $55 tax when I brought them across from my box office in the states...you gotta do your homework. Ordering something from the states and shipping directly to Canada is asking for excessive bills....

    I figured it would be fine.....👍 Fiddle with the settings and you will get it to not bounce and just float over the bumps..

    Lectric Bikes - The story of how two guys built a $13M company in a year

    They deserve every penny..Their service and product are first rate. We're one of the first batch of owners. A few minor kinks but super fast and friendly service. I've ordered 4 bikes now in total for family. Highly recommend. 2300 km and climbing..

    Tall guy (6'1"), suspension seatpost options?

    The Rinsten spring bounces first of all, so your energy is displaced and wasted as you peddle. Look on their website and they show a fellow riding downstairs and you can see my point. If you bike slowly and want a comfort ride, this works to some degree and I'd say is better than a spring seat...
