    ODO meter stopped working - is it fixable.....

    I am Canadian as well and used to have a Voltbike Yukon but bought the XP because of the price, reviews, and folding feature. I bought mine before the border was closed and didn't have to pay any duty to get it across so only paid about $1200 or about $400 less than any other comparable bike on...

    Lectric XP - does the frame match the rear hub?

    I had a real battle the first time I took my rear wheel off but now it's snug but goes together pretty easily, better technique or stretched frame?

    Lectric XP and Neck Pain

    I also have the Suntour post and it fits perfectly in the XP. I like my seat high so bought the 400mm post so that there would still be a lot of post in the bike frame for strength. I like this seatpost but have also read many good reports on the Sartori.

    Lectric XP controller issues ?

    I modded my bike right away to allow "28mph" and now have over 2300kms without any problems.

    ODO meter stopped working - is it fixable.....

    Ouch, $75 and all the mechanic would have done is push together connectors. Hopefully a lot of people will read this and just go through all of the connectors on their bike making sure something isn't just loose. All of the connectors are colour coded and have one way pins so if you work on them...

    Lectric XP

    I had lots of problems with splashes of water & mud hitting my key until I added fender mud flaps. If you use the search function on the upper right you can find out the info on what I used.

    Shipping Lectric XP

    Use the search button found on the top right of your screen, there is a guy who completely rebuilt his lectric bags and also info on other bags that people have bought. I have welded PVC bags that I bought on Amazon that fit the spare battery.

    Lectric XP

    Looks real nice, is that a new style of bag from Lectric or your own bag? As for the fender extenders I ended up cutting 2" off the front mud guard because it kept catching on stairs, curbs, logs, small animals, children, pedestrians, non-electric bicyles or anything else you have to ride over...

    Standard Tools

    This is what I carry along with a small floor pump. I found that the tires although only 20" need more air than my regular Zefal bike pump can supply so I bought a 1/2 size floor pump at the local dollar store which fills the tubes very easily. All of the tools fit in the red (dollar store...

    Battery Rattle Noise

    I first put on too much tape, then took layers off until the battery slid in nice and tight without removing the tape. So far so good and it's easy to renew if there ever is a problem.

    I forgot to mention, use a rubber band with the ziploc bag so it doesn't blow off.

    Battery Rattle Noise

    My latest and so far easiest fix was to wrap some duct tape around the battery.

    Known Issues & Problems with Lectric eBikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Yeah, I meant online as in Aliexpress, Amazon, Ebay, or even Walmart as compared to Lectric, Bolton, Rad, Voltbike or any other "online seller" that has a brick and mortar building, some integrity and a help line for problems. If you are a good tinkerer and have access to electronic parts you...

    Samebike? Discuss the differences.

    Cheaper pedals, not as good a rack, the headlight looks even crappier than ours (good for 2 meters so even the bikes are social distancing) and they also cheaped out on the display...all these benefits for $1700-1800 cdn! When you see deals like this it helps to understand why Lectric has been...

    I have the same bar, nothing fancy about it and nothing wrong with it.

    Mods for new XP

    I've only ever seen one size grip area, the difference in bar size is in the center mounting area.

    Larger chainring

    I second the freewheel option, much cheaper and if you have hills in your area look for the 11-34 so you have higher speed and easier hills. Aliexpress sells them, you can find the link info under the "accessories" thread
