    Replacement controller options?

    I fried my second controller messing around with a headlight upgrade. Lectric sent me the first one for free, now they wants $70 plus to send a replacement. I don't want to cough up that much when I see Ali full of $15 controllers, but I don't know which one works. Any ideas?

    Who can ride the farthest?

    I think I could go 50 miles on a single charge. Anyone ridden further? Who's up for the challenge?

    Lectric has sold 20k+ bikes in a year, who's sold more?

    Just like the title says, Lectric sales are over 20k units in 12 months, has ANY bike manufacture sold that many of ANY bike? Has Trek or Cannondale or Schwinn even sold 20k bikes of any model in the last 12 months? Inquiring minds want to know.

    What bikes have a cassette in back?

    I'm trying to upgrade the freewheel on my lectric XP, and find it extremely frustrating and limiting that it has a freewheel, which of course limits my gear selections. So my question is do any manufacturers including cassette on the rear, for easy upgrades? Ultimately I'm looking for an 11-42...

    Ebike conversion powered by Ryobi

    I am in the process of building a custom 10 amp hour battery for my wife's ebike conversion. Until then I thought I'd slap a couple of 18 volt Ryobi batteries in series take her for a spin. The parts consist of a Ryobi battery wall hanger and a Ryobi battery clip, both on eBay from...

    5v USB outlet for Letric XP

    Anyone found a way to add a USB charge port to our bikes? I have an idea; 60v to 5v step down converter with a USB plug for your phone that draws power from the headlight plug. About the size of a cigarette lighter. Any interest? I'm going to make a few once the parts arrive and I'll show...

    BMX'd my Lectric XP

    Like many of you I grew up on a BMX. My fondest bike memories come when I was riding my BMX, dozens and hundreds of miles as a child. It turns out with a little imagination our Lectric XP is a good candidate for conversion... My mods were numerous: Bars, head, stem, grips, shifter, bell, pegs...

    New hidden kickstand!

    I'm not a fan of our kickstands, it looks like a refueling probe pointing the wrong way. Plus it got in the way of my BMX pegs. So out with the old and in with the new.

    Our seats aren't sprung!

    This big rubber bumpers on our seats led me to believe there's some sort of cushioning provided by them. Wrong, they are for show only! Those rubber "bumpers" surround a solid plastic core which provides zero movement. I took mine out which lowered the seat over an inch. Plus now it doesn't look...

    First trail ride, First crash, OUCH!

    Last night was an adventure! I started a trail ride at dusk and did not finish before it got dark. My lighting was poor and on the way home I had a bad crash. Skinned my knee, skinned my elbow, bruised ego and got a really deep bruise on my left shoulder. Expectedly my bike came out fine...

    Samebike? Discuss the differences.

    https://a.aliexpress.com/_dWdy0tS I stumbled upon this while looking for street tires for my XP. Taking a quick glance I noticed the controller and suspension forks but the paint job doesn't look as good to me. What else do you notice or like/not like about this Samebike as your XP?

    Headlight voltage?

    How about this to spread the rear fork?

    My bike is on order and I plan to change the tires and tubes. Think this will work to spread the rear frame? Edit to add this picture:
