The hub motor on your bike doesn't add any drag. It is the weight, fat tires and your fitness level. I can go about 7mph on level ground but can go 13-15 on my 1985 old school 10 speed. The bikes that have drag with regenerate charging is when you stop peddling while coasting forward and will...

Or for free if you're still in warranty.... I'm a retired electronics tech by the way. Have built a few ebikes, started my ebike journey with the Lectric XP.

Then it is not likely the battery. Cutting off the power with the key is having the same effect as unplugging your modem when your internet goes out. You're resetting the electronics. Do the things you can such as unplugging all the connections and reconnecting one at a time. If that doesn't...

Just to be sure, the power button on the handlebar won't work after you loose power until you switch the battery off then back on? T/F

Since it is a Chinese MFG Alibaba or AliExpress. Try every few weeks. Had to do this when the Bafang BBS01 first came out. If you haven't used them before, AliExpress is easier to deal with as you just order like Amazon and they hold back the money till the product is delivered. Alibaba you...

Yes, seems to be the case in all states and some local government more draconian than others. Seems like the County jurisdictions are least likely to adopt laws against ebikes. Here in Florida there are very few areas that I can't ride and those I can't seem to be for good reasons.

New Jersey has adopted the US Federal ebike classes in 2019 and a class 1 & 2 ebike is considered a non-motorized low speed electric assisted bicycle. As long as the motor cuts off at 20mph and the motor is rated at 750 watts or less they are treated the same as any other traditional bicycle...

Watch the Park Tool derailleur adjustment YouTube video. It's a three step process and it's a common maintenance item as the cable stretches and the slight wear over time. After watching the video you will likely just turn the cable nut adjuster on the derailleur. After watching the video if...

They'll respond if you emailed them from the same email you used to order or if included the order#. If the item is backordered they will need some time to get the information out of their supplier likely in China. China is currently undergoing a covid lockdown that could be effecting response...

Found the balancer on the same site for anyone that's interested. I suppose we should split this thread as it's getting off the OP's topic https://electricallwheel.com/dual-battery-discharge-kit-lxp-fit/

Don't forget to order the balancer with the above adapter. It takes them both to run dual batteries.

It appears that the incompatibility issue MIGHT be on EARLY 3.0 bikes having a different discharge port that is not backwards compatible with the other XP standard & high capacity. Emphasis on might and early. I'm waiting to hear back from Lectric for clarification and maybe user...

Looks like either battery would work in a 1.0 or 2.0. the 1.0 discharge port below is pretty wide open in the center. I have several like the 2.0 pic ebikencleveland posted and they work in the 1.0 XP. If the early 3.0 came with a different discharge port then I could see how the center might...

It's an unsubstantiated Facebook rumor. Please let's not perpetuate a rumor over a single mention on a YouTube video, the creator himself only reported that "he heard" about it being on Facebook. If a user has a battery alignment issue on a particular bike Lectric will replace the battery or...

The step through, lite and the premium batteries are not compatible with the XP 1.0 2.0 and 3.0. The XP 1.0 2.0 & 3.0 standard & long range are all interchangeable. The information is available on Lectric accessories/parts web site.

1.0, 2.0 & 3.0 all use the same XP battery. Standard and long range. Here is the link showing compatibility on Lectric site https://lectricebikes.com/collections/parts/products/spare-battery

Per mile bikes typically require more than a car. The Lectric bikes are comparable to standard bikes. 2500 or more in tires and brakes depending on how you ride. Get a chain wear guage and replace the chain when it shows wear. A hub motor like the Lectric doesn't wear as much in the drive...

You actually want to check the rim width. Bike tires and rims are a different beast from car & lite trucks tires. 20" bike rims don't even measure 20" anywhere on them. Some 20" bike tires measure close to 20" in outer diameter very few are going to measure exactly 20" in outer diameter. A...

Ok, I get it. So the motor size difference on ebikes makes for much more cooling capacity on the motor. We also have so much more space on an ebike so the controller is larger to accommodate circuitry that among other things includes feedback from hall sensors in the motor that will throttle...

Yes, you said you wanted a dual motor on your original post. I'm trying to understand better why? Just on a simple note you would need to change the controller as the Lectric controller is set up for 500w sustained with 850w peak. Adding a second motor would require at least double that...
