    Lectric XP

    Makes me feel like cancelling my unfulfilled XP order and instead buy one of those Ali-ebikes with solid rims and all the other features. Shipping would probably faster, maybe. Sigh. From one of the ebike descriptions it states: "Packaging Detail: 7 Layer Double Wall Carton. Retail packing...

    Qualisports Dolphin vs Lectric XP

    Thank you for your detailed response! I fully agree carrying even a light bike up 3 flights of stairs daily can become a pain. Weight matters! Also a more compact folder also makes a big difference when space is limited. I can imagine rent in NYC and square footage is not cheap. Good point on...

    Qualisports Dolphin vs Lectric XP

    I agree the XP seemed like the better overall deal and that is what I went with. I ordered late August, order still unfulfilled. I'm patient so I don't mind the wait. I'm currently riding my folding bike and really enjoy it's simplicity and lightweight. What I liked about the Dolphin was...

    Lectric XP

    Ah! I stand corrected, thanks for clarifying that. I've never heard of isopropenal. I was thinking about carb cleaner too but that may not be suitable either. I guess that makes sense as some of the brake pads on cars contain metals and other material needed to stop a 3000 lb car traveling 60...

    Or get some brake cleaner from an auto parts store meant for cleaning rotors and drums.

    Lectric XP

    I've stumbled upon the recent "Trump admin to allow e-bikes on national park trails" articles in my Google feed and thought wow that's actually great news! At one of my favorite forest preserve destinations currently there are small signs posted that state "No e-bikes or pedal assisted bicycles...

    Lectric XP

    For those that aren't happy with the delay of the XP the Qualisports Dolphin at $1099 pre-order price might be a decent alternative. It's not a bad bike by any means. Court reviewed the Qualisports Volador and Nemo and they're both very good ebikes. They even highlight a few things about their...

    Lectric XP

    Wow impressive! With that kind of snow its possible to lose traction, slide and fall. Thanks for posting that snow ride video. I guess the fat tires really help in that scenario. I'm in Illinois and some winter days look just like that. On really bad days I'll just leave the ebike at home and...

    Lectric XP

    I went ahead and placed my pre-order on 08/24/2019 for a black Lectric XP, a spare XP battery and the free pannier (thanks to KevCentral). My order #4548 September shipping is currently unfulfilled. I can't wait to receive it but I am enjoying reading everyone else's reviews as they arrive. You...

    Lectric XP

    Yes, thank you! I have viewed these over and over. However, I am still seeking more. Can you speculate or give input on the other ebike I listed? I know its hard to say much about it but any insight would help calm my impatience. Much appreciated. KevCentral's videos are very good, very...

    Lectric XP

    So besides logistics, are there any negatives or cons about this ebike? lol it seems to be THE perfect ebike right now. Well, at least for the price on paper with the few preproduction models sent out to YouTubers out there . It is highly praised and the demand grew through the roof that Lectric...

    Lectric XP

    I'm currently shopping for my first ebike. I came across the Lectric XP and really like it. This forum seems the most active online and I wanted to get some input from those who have received theirs and those who are still waiting on their orders to arrive. What do I like about the Lectric XP...

    Qualisports Dolphin vs Lectric XP

    I'm considering the purchase of my first ebike and have come across the Qualisports Dolphin. Previously I was looking at some of the other Qualisports ebikes such as the Nemo and Volador but decided the Dolphin is probably the better choice for me. What do I like about the Dolphin? Pre-order...
