    Anyone with info on Ariel Rider Rideal model ?

    Really depends on the type of riding you plan to do. A 750w geared hub motor as the Ariel Rideal has will get you up hills on either pedal assist or just throttle. If you are just riding on roads, sidewalks, groomed dirt bike paths then having a suspension fork is not that important. If you...

    Just me? So hard to pull trigger!

    I have about 2500 miles on my XP and live in Florida. Pretty flat except for the many bridges over waterways to simulate hills. The XP does exceptional at doing everything good, no one thing on the bike is bad, no one thing on the bike is better than good. I highly recommend it as a...

    Lectric XP Programming and Function Complete Guide

    The original 2018 xp settings all could be changed but too many users were changing settings they didn't understand causing way too many customer support issues. Levi & Robbie chose to lock users from settings that might cause user issues & keep it simpler for their support staff. Since settings...

    Lectric XP Programming and Function Complete Guide

    Got super excited about being able to increase PAS levels to 9. I find PAS 3 is too aggressive but PAS 2 is too whimpy when the battery is 75-100%. Once battery drops to 75% then for me PAS 3 is about right. So I went to my settings to change P05 and set it for 9 levels but it is locked at 5...

    If you ordered from the 8/20/2020 batch, you might have been given a lowered ah battery.

    Do some research on lg vs samsung 18650 batteries. These cells are used in banks to make a wide variety of bike batteries. Both publish storage ranges 3300mAh to 3500. Samsung under reports in their published specs but when tested they actually over perform most other brands (including lg)...

    Throttle but no pedal assist

    Agree, I double checked my manual and P10 set to 1 will enable throttle only. Way easier than unplugging the cadence sensor.

    Throttle but no pedal assist

    Ditto, disconnect the cadence sensor located just to the right of the left crank arm. Trace the wire coming from it to the connector.

    Anyone with info on Ariel Rider Rideal model ?

    The thing that concerned me was it had only a 500 watt controller with a 750 watt motor. Idk if they are using a 500 watt nominal with 750 peak motor and listing it as a 750 watt or just a mistake in the listing. Sure would like to see better gearing than the 6 speed too, my lectric xp has a 7...

    On sale at Carson City Bike shop. Looks like shipping is only $15. https://carsoncitybikeshop.com/tires-sunlt-20x4-1-4-bk-bk-wire/ these can also be had on Amazon. They are 0.5" wider but I've seen positive reviews and posts for these when used on the Lectric XP.

    Keyhole location

    Since the bike comes with fenders and the key is closer to the center of the bike I've had zero issue after 1300 miles of mixed riding. The first few times trying to reinsert the key was slightly frustrating but after realizing the key position is always orientated front to rear it became...

    Lectric XP PAS 1 through 3 no difference

    Thanks for letting me know. The only other suspect would be the display unit if it happens to house the main microprocessor but I believe it comes with the controller anyway. I would think that they took a second to look at the electronic schematics this time around but I know they are going...

    Lectric XP review: one year, 3200 miles later and I still love it!

    Thanks, sounds like you are doing right to extend battery life so now I'm concerned but hopeful that your experience was an anomaly. I hope to get 700 cycles or better for 2 years if use.
