    Noise from rear hub when going 21mph+

    I had that issue also, as well as an issue where, at seemingly random points in time during my ride, after coasting, it would take several seconds before PAS 3 would re-engage. Once it started happening, it would continue until I shut off and restarted the bike. Never solved, after several...

    The weather finally warmed up enough (high 30s) to try test ride #2. Unfortunately, the delayed PAS 3 activation kicked in at the 8 mile mark of the ride, and continued after each coasting event until I eventually turned the bike off and back on, which reset whatever went awry. I also had a...

    I swapped out the cable from the display to the controller. Lectric sent me a new cadence sensor and connector wire, which I installed (had to buy a crank puller to get to the cadence sensor). Finally got a chance to test it out on a 16-mile ride today. No issues! I’m cautiously optimistic. I...

    Delayed activation of PAS 3 still occurring. While I can defeat it by rebooting the display, I cannot stop it from occurring. Lectric sent me a new cadence sensor and a wire harness. Unfortunately, they didn’t tell me I’d need a crank puller to remove the crank arm so I can access the sensor. I...

    There’s only one thing I did not switch out - the cable connecting the display to the controller. I’m not at all excited about doing that, with all of the wire wrap involved. I find it hard to believe that is the issue, as you think if there was a nick in the wire that it would just short out...

    The saga continues….I went out for a second test ride earlier this week. I was having a blast and was on my way home, about 11 miles in, when the PAS 3 delayed activation issue reappeared. It continued for about a mile when, while coasting, I decided to turn off the bike and turn it back on...

    I got the new display. Hooked it up. Took it out for a test ride. It looks like this fixed the delayed PAS 3 activation issue. The buzzing sound was intermittent and only lasted a second whenever it happened. Might be coming from the spokes - the Velofix tech couldn’t rule that out. One...

    Velofix came by today. He tightened up the rear wheel spokes though he didn't think they were particularly loose. He was able to experience the delayed activation of PAS 3 (and 4 and 5 for that matter). He thinks it may be a problem with the PAS switch on the handlebar (which apparently works...

    Velofix is coming to check out my bike early next week. The tech has worked on Lectrics and knows them pretty well. We’ll see what he is able to do.

    No, and I haven’t asked. However, Velofix is their authorized repair firm and I view this as a warranty related issue. I just want them to back up my claim or, if they can, fix it.

    I’m on the east coast so that’s not an option. I have thought about having Velofix come over and take a look at it (my neighbor, who has a different branded e-bike, has a contact he is very pleased with). I think I’m going to do that.

    Known Issues & Problems with Lectric eBikes Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    I’ve been dealing with them so far via email, and they generally respond pretty quickly. The problem is that each email comes from a different CS person. They should all know me by now, but I don’t seem to be getting through to someone who can make an “executive” decision along the lines I am...

    They want to send me another rear wheel. I questioned whether that would do anything to fix what I’ve been experiencing, as they have already sent me one. I’m trying to get them to have someone call me who is appraised of my issues so I can work out a final solution. Still waiting for a response.

    My test after installing the replacement controller was a bust. The noises we’ve talked about still occur under the same conditions. More distressing is that the delayed engagement of PAS 3 is worse than before. Every time I coasted and then started pedaling again it would sit in PAS 2 for...

    I’m grasping at straws now, but I whether the frame design makes a difference in how motor resonances are funneled throughout the bike. I feel pretty confident that the noises are coming from behind me as I sit on the saddle but maybe that extra crossbar on the non-step through model makes a...

    I didn’t mention it earlier but when I had the wheel off I put on the 11-28 free wheel. I was going to wait to see if the new controller fixed things and, if not, I could return it to Amazon but I couldn’t resist. I can feel the difference. The funny thing is, the way it’s configured, 6th gear...

    I got the new controller today and installed it (I got. New wheel a few weeks back). Yesterday I took the rear wheel off and put rubber washers on the two places where the fender attaches to the frame. After installing the new controller I took the bike for a short test ride. I heard the sound...

    Noise from rear hub when going 21mph+

    Interesting. That's the screw I can't easily get to because of the small clearance with the tire in the way. I've reached out to Lectric and they are sending me a new controller (already received a new wheel). The CS person has assured me that this will take care of the problem. We'll see...

    I’m just reading these posts now and I’m stunned to see I have the same observation on the PAS ranges on my XP 2.0 In October 2022. There is a big jump between 2 and 3 and on 4 I am at 20 mph. More specifically, PAS 2 is too slow for me unless I am sightseeing on a flat path. There should be...
