    Replacement for control unit glass

    I'm confused. Do you mean the display that is mounted on the handle bar or the controller installed behind the battery input plug inside the top tube? The controller doesn't have glass... Call Lectric for the replacement display, they will send a replacement.

    Flipping the stem on an XP3.0 Step Through - any issues?

    Yes, rotate the handle bar back, then rotate all the peripherals, grips, brake handles, shifter, switch group.. Because the bike uses a folding stem that is also adjustable, it's not practical or simple to do anything other than adjust the handlebar. Do the easy things first.....

    Flipping the stem on an XP3.0 Step Through - any issues?

    Replace the current handlebar with a riser bar. Instead of mounting the handles higher, rotate them towards yourself. The stock bar is about 3/4" rise so switch them out with something that has the amount of inches you would like to have closer to you. Most bars are going to be wider which...

    Rear Brake linereplacement

    I'm not familiar with the xpeak but here is something that might help you pulling cable through the frame: Use the old cable to HELP GUIDE the old cable by connecting the end of old to end of new. You can use an allen screw or anything of similar diameter to stick in the ends, then electrical...

    XPedition feedback: good design, bad execution

    Paul, I welcome you to the forum. I don't think the orbitor rack was designed for a toddler of 4 years old. A kiddie seat is likely more appropriate. The Lectric Orbitor Rack web page states "A passenger incapable of riding a bike on their own should not ride as a passenger. Use your best...

    (2) standard (OEM) batteries or (1) long range battery

    On my XP standard battery on PAS 2 then PAS 3 as the battery ran down some I was able to get comfortably 35 miles in range. The bike would run at about 14 mph throughout on the flats with very little effort peddling. If you don't run above PAS 3 the range is pretty good but as you push past 14...

    (2) standard (OEM) batteries or (1) long range battery

    How many hours at most do you think you'll be riding on a single trip or how many miles? With that information I can give a real answer.

    Handlebar diameter at the grips 7/8”?

    Great. Gave you accurate info then. The 3.0 step thru is definitely 22.2. I was a little concerned if you had the xpedition, cargo, peak since those are bigger bikes that Lectric may have put beefier bars on.

    Handlebar diameter at the grips 7/8”?

    22.2 millimeters is how you will see it described in bicycle lingo. It is 7/8" Imperial USA. Santa, also want to welcome you as a new member. It's a good practice to give us an idea of what you are trying to do something like this: "My handle bar grips won't stay in place and I don't like...

    XP-2.0 500w motor

    Just reach out to Lectric. They are very reasonable with prices after warranty and they are known to even replace for no charge after warranty expires under some circumstances. They will send the whole wheel assembly so you won't have to build the wheel and true it. Unless you're a highly...

    New Lectric Xpress

    In my experience with them (6 purchases), they have been the most respectable company I have dealt with in the past 30 years. They are a company that tends to under promise and over deliver a vast majority of the time. They are a U.S. company that does all manufacturing in China and so they do...

    Lectric XP 3.0 folding e-bike pedals

    The pedals are fine for typical use on most surfaces and riding that 80% of people use the bike for. Some people playing around with bmx style or trying to ride like a mountain bike will find them insufficient but that doesn't sound like you since your second sentence started with "Old guy here".

    XP Lite Owners - Wish you had more power?

    I have a lite, that replaced my xp (too heavy). The lite is a reasonable compromise if you want a simple somewhat light weight somewhat decent speed handy ebike with ok range that folds for stowing at a really great price for what you get. There are lighter and better stowing bikes but they...

    I ordered Xpeak

    Nine times out of ten when I see about a person hitting toes on the front bicycle wheel when turning they have a motorcycle background. On a motorcycle, the middle of your foot (arch area) rests on the pegs. On a bicycle the ball of your foot is placed on the pedal. By placing the ball of...

    Lectric One

    Seems like a strange setup. Why put a robust expensive drive train on a hub drive e-bike? Hub drive e-bikes barely put any strain on the drive train anyway. On the other hand, end user adjustable automatic shifting will allow the bike to be set for the peddling cadence and peddle assist the...

    Changing percentage of power within the power assist levels

    Reach out to Area 13 ebikes, they carry some upgrade kits for some brands (not sure of your brand). Eggrider also has a programmable display but it only works with brands using a particular communications protocol on the controller (can't remember which one).

    new XP2.0

    It seems error 9 is a controller error not a throttle error. You can go through all the connections but if that doesn't work then the controller needs replacement.

    XPremium Q's

    I suspect you won't find a freewheel with 11 tooth anyway. Only way to fix the ghost peddling is to increase the size of the front chainring. Will likely need a longer chain. I got used to the PAS jump and actually ride PAS 2 then switch to PAS 3 at towards the end of the ride as the voltage...

    XPremium Q's

    For transparency I own the XP 1.0 but am very familiar with the lineup. I have other bikes mid-drive, full size standard frames etc. Same fat tires, similar frame & gears. I've used suspension seatpost with the 4" tires. For me I vote meh, my wife has back issues and is a big fan of the...
