Fantastic!

Yeah, there’s another thread in the Lectric forum from a couple weeks back, somebody selling our batteries and an extra charger I think.

Another range report and I’m adding a new e-bike to my collection but not a Lectric. I love this bike but when I bought it I was not expecting to be taking long rides. It was for a 2 mile round trip to my parents which I‘d assumed would often or always be unassisted, throttle only. But I’ve...

Excellent, glad you got out to ride! Yeah, from what I’ve read 50 to 60% is perfect.

Congrats on the XP! It’s a great bike and a lot of fun! If the road is in good condition and fairly smooth I’d keep it at 25 to 30psi. I keep my tires at 25psi and ride mostly asphalt in fairly good condition. A bit of gravel too and 25 is good for that. If you’re going to be spending more time...

Get out and ride it! I didn’t order till December and got it on the 22. We’ve had nice weather in Missouri but even in the cold I ride. I think the key to enjoying winter cycling is just the right clothes. Layer up a bit and you’ll come back plenty warm. Protect your face as much as you can and...

It’s definitely recommended to NOT store the batteries at 100%. Batteries should be stored at 50 to 60%. If possible get your bikes out for a short ride and reduce their current level of 100%. Storing in 60 degrees is fine, just get that level down. That’s one of the worst things you can do. The...

I’ve had my Lectric XP for about 5 weeks and have ridden a good bit, about 430 miles. I wanted to offer up a few thoughts. I’m riding 15 to 23 miles a ride, almost everyday that isn’t raining. I’ve had it out on the nice 50 degree days and out on the 20 degree days. Some wet roads, a little...

I’m looking for a second e-bike to purchase in the next 6 to 8 months. I’ve got a Lectric that I’m really loving and will keep for grocery trips to town 8 miles away. I’ll use that for fun trips to town too and for the occasional meeting. It’s a blast to ride. 16 to 20 miles round trip is easy...

10 Things to Know Before Taking a Fat Bike on Snow - LiveOutdoors First thing I would do is lower tire pressure down to 10 psi. Second thing would be to find a safe, no traffic place to practice riding. Another link: https://bendtrails.org/tips-for-riding-in-snow/

I noticed after a day or two of riding that my derailleur wasn’t dropping into 7th gear but when I’d flip it upside down it would work. With the cold, rainy day I was pondering what I might do to improvise a work stand so I could work right side up on adjusting it. I live/work in a tiny house...

An update. 9 days since my last post on this thread and I’m up to just over 300 miles. I’m generally seeing the same results reported in my last post except today which was an amazing ride with a different route. Very hilly, with some pretty steep and long hills. Also, a lot of gravel road...

Unfortunately pre-filled are not available in the size we need, 20x4... or, at least I couldn’t find them!

Oh, yeah, that was just for folks that don’t have a stand or for doing a repair in the field!

A few thoughts on tires, tubes and punctures. I’ve had my Lectric since around 12-21 and have put about 250 miles on it. I’m expecting/hoping to do 3,000 miles or more this year and I’ve been a bit preoccupied with the topic of tires and tubes. I’d been thinking I might switch to a tire...

I’ve got 240 miles on my Lectric XP in the first 3 weeks and expect to be riding 70 to 90 miles a week. Most of that pavement but about 10% gravel. The stock tires are okay but I’m thinking of replacing them with something better on pavement. So, I’ve been searching and there’s not much out...

Any chance these problems are related? I ask because you’ve got brake pads that are wearing far faster than expected and a bike with range far less than expected. Almost seems to me that the brakes are wearing fast because they’re dragging which would also shorten your range. Certainly something...

I’ve had my XP for just over two weeks and am currently at about 180 miles. I‘ve got 3 days of nice weather before some rain comes in for a few days, I’m expecting to get in 45 miles or more in those three days. I’m mostly riding at PAS 2, a bit at PAS 1 and a bit less at PAS 3. Mostly pavement...

I’ve had mine or just over a week and had it out for just over 100 miles of riding over 6 days. I weigh 175 and am riding on slightly hilly terrain, most of it paved but some of it gravel. I’m riding at pedal assist 2 and 3 with light but consistent pedaling. My speeds are 12mph and 16mph...

Congrats! Have fun!!
