    Review of my Lectric ONE.

    🤞 for you on the mirrors. Mine arrive today, and I ordered after you. Not sure how you hold back on riding, though. If I had that bike at my house, I'd be spending my weekends outdoors. 😂

    Review of my Lectric ONE.

    This is on top of the 3mm kevlar Hippo Skin tires? (Which is probably part of the reason they are so difficult to bend.) Are those tires not resistant, or you just wanted to be really sure?

    Review of my Lectric ONE.

    Thanks for sharing! I decided to order, and I'll be sure to test the fasteners. Yeah, not being able to roll the bike backward with the kickstand down is annoying. I assume it's a result of the awkward weight distribution with battery and motor in the back. (But the standard, easy-to-remove...

    Battery charge problem.

    It's not quite as simple as hooking up a voltmeter and measuring the voltage because there is some sort of protocol to negotiate full power. It's probably not difficult to figure out, but it's definitely a challenge when I have only one battery that doesn't work. JRA, there is a good chance you...

    Battery charge problem.

    Unfortunately, I don't have anything productive to add, but I am seeing the exact same behavior with my Bosch Powerpack: 3 lights out of 5, refuses to charge after a little more than 2 years. The battery refused to even power up the display when swapped into another bike. Scott58, did you ever...

    Just purchased new xm700

    That's what I'm being told, and Trek doesn't seem to prefer having a large number of models out, but it's difficult to say that far out. It's possible that the Super Commuter will just be added on as a higher price tier. I ended up buying the XM700+ after just a couple of miles of riding...

    Just purchased new xm700

    I spoke to a manager and figured out the story: they are going to start stocking the Dual Sport+ in favor of the XM700+ until the Super Commuter becomes available. I've never tried the STePS system, but at only 20mph it's a no-go. (Everyone seems willing to install "the dongle" for $200, but I...

    Christmas in August - Just got my XM700+

    I hope you enjoy it. Contrary to what I was originally told, shops will still order the XM700+ and I should have one coming in next week. I don't have an excuse to justify riding it. It just seems like it'd be a heck of a lot of fun! I typically ride close to 18mph without electric so it'd have...

    Just purchased new xm700

    *sigh* I figured out why nobody has the XM700+ in stock even though July was supposed to be the start of general availability... The Trek Super Commuter is supposed to arrive in stores within the next month. Like the XM700+ before it, though, supply is going to be tight enough that the earliest...

    Just purchased new xm700

    What do you think so far? I tried some of the Currie mid-drive speed pedelecs, and I didn't care for it. (They were functional, but not as fun as I'd hoped.) I still have hopes that the XM700 will suit my preferences more, but I'm having trouble finding a bike shop that stocks it in the San...
