    Pedal assist on XP Lite working correctly?

    I love my XP Lite, but after riding it more in city traffic I can’t agree fully with this assertion. There’s a huge difference between 28 mph and 20 mph in city traffic. 28 mph feels much safer in terms of cars not always wanting to squeeze around at the wrong times and places. To me, 20 mph...

    XP Lite is locked to Class 2 only.

    Yeah, spot on. The bike is just a series of good, sensible decisions. I still feel as though the only thing I might change on mine is the tires and possibly a better headlight (though I will probably just wear a headlight on my helmet when really needed).

    PAS-1 “feels” as strong as any other PAS level; it just quits working at a very low speed (about 7 MPH). Don’t know about the tires… I’ll probably replace them before I find out.

    Yes, I got a shipping notification. It shipped via FedEx and arrived on time. Not sure how I could judge the ride on 35 psi tires. The only way I’ll be able to say the ride is harsh is if I fit the 65 psi tires and make a comparison. I did some more cruising on it today and it’s definitely way...

    OK, I did ride it… in a big, well-lighted parking lot. I put just over 2 miles on it. I’m very pleasantly surprised! In fact, I’m more than surprised. Initial impression is that it exceeds all my expectations. First, it doesn’t feel small. I’m 5‘10“ and a shade over 200 pounds and it feels like...

    I’m not going to make it out on the bike tonight, but a couple of more notes: I knew I’d receive the damn Chao Yang tires :( grrr… I also requested no Slime, because at the time I ordered Slime was an option (it looks like all the bikes get Slime now). They said they would try to give me one...

    My XP Lite arrived today with the box in good shape. It took me no more than 10 minutes to remove the packaging and have the bike set up, though I haven’t gone over any fasteners yet. The welds and paint are nice—no major flaws. Part of me wondered if this thing would seem like a toy, not...

    Well, there doesn’t seem to be an actual review from an actual random purchaser on this model yet, only the ones who got bikes in exchange for YouTube reviews. I ordered mine the first or second day they were available, and it should be arriving in the next day or two. I’ve owned a couple of...
