    I never agreed with Peta until today.

    My problem with assassination as a perceived penalty for someone's actions is it is too abrupt. There is no public airing of grievance, no public charge to be judged on. The assassin functions as judge, jury and executioner and that action should have no acceptance anywhere on planet Earth.

    Rear Brake linereplacement

    Yeah, I just wish I had a dry line shipped. There is a keeper that was not secured as it should have been. A honeysuckle vine wrapped around my wheel and forced the unkept line into the rotor. I removed the vine, but after a few stops a bubble developed and burst.

    Good uses for walk mode

    Did not want to start a new thread. This may have been mentioned here. I did not read it all. Bike: Lectric Xpeak I have have been using walk mode while on the bike to initiate motion while in a tight space. The torque is plenty good at low speed. Even up a slight grade. It is safer than cadence...

    Rear Brake linereplacement

    Thanks, but it's hydraulic brakes. My prob is getting the parts thru the frame w/o opening the fluid system. I am thinking of gorilla tape down the frame side til I get to the original routing.

    Rear Brake linereplacement

    Lectric sent me a rear brake kit for my step thru Xpeak. I need a new brake line. What I received is brake lever, reservoir, line, caliper and pads. It appears the system is wet (charged with fluid). I don't see away to thread either lever or caliper thru the frame. Am I missing something? I...

    Rear brake line

    Oh I agree. I just wondered if Lectric chose a different way to use it.

    Rear brake line

    Xpeak step thru. While maneuvering thru trails, something hung my rear brake line and pulled it into my rotor. On the frame there is a two hole keeper the brake line is to be retained in. Only one hole was captured by the screw. Question: Is your Xpeak step thru rear brake line captured in this...

    Lectric eBikes Announces End To International Shipping, Effectively Abandoning International Customers

    Wow! I hope someone finds away to act as a go between to get parts to our friends to the north. An explanation of reasons seems appropriate. After all, a portion of their company purchases rely on the international market.

    Lectric Elite headlight

    I have tried to be gentle with me disappointment in this headlight. But I agree the light despite the advertizing moniker in not elite. The company has done so many great things. It's like "Oh yeah, we need a headlight". And I think this light is considered an upgrade option. The Xpeak is...

    Lectric Elite headlight

    I like the light on my Juiced RCS. Same connector as Lectric and it is smaller but better light. They are on back order. I almost always have headlight(on my head) but I like the bike light because you never know what life brings you. And I agree, the Lectric light might keep someone from...

    Lectric Elite headlight

    Has anyone decided the Lectric Elite Headlight is just not that good? I think I have. In the woods on tight trails the illumination is just not that broad and bright. It is narrow focused and I don't see any adjustment. My other bikes use a broad LED that may be better for my needs.

    X-Peak broke spoke

    R&R the rear wheel with Lectric replacement. It was a complete rear wheel assembly. Rotor, cassette, and washers and nuts installed. Couldn't be easier. 👍 to Lectric. I do wish the spokes pulled square to the nipples better. Maybe 10 spokes noticably pulling out of square. I have laced a few...

    X-Peak broke spoke

    4th ebike... 2nd Lectric. They have been the best to deal with on every level. After 10 + years of ebikes, all brutalized, 1st broke spoke. Wheel to be in today.... but FedEx shows delayed in Nashville. About 25 miles from the house.

    X-Peak broke spoke

    I worked in failure analysis for some major manufacturers. Field scraping was typical if it was not a wide spread issue, or if the issue was understood and no more samples were required. I will be concerned for sometime about this bike. I was well paid to examine all "What if" scenarios...

    X-Peak broke spoke

    Well, emailed Lectric. They have told me they have sent me an entire rear wheel assembly. They are not interested in my rear wheel being returned. So is this good or bad. Within 48 hours of me sending an email requesting support they have issued a tracking number for a wheel assembly and don't...

    Good uses for walk mode

    There is one particular trail I take to begin a deep woods trek to a hunting area. The trail begins off a field and is thick, uphill, with undulating terrain. I cannot pedal but walk mode is quite valuable. It is a Juiced RCS. I believe the walk mode is initiated via the (-) button.
