Well, Got my bike today. A day early surprisingly lol. I can confirm those settings are indeed locked. No adjustment is possible. I am not happy about that.
Frankly, I don't care if they got time or not. They could just as easily put a piece of paper in the box with all the defaults listed and that should take care of most of those calls. Now if your speedometer is off, you can not adjust tire size to fix it. Nor can you set a higher cutoff for your battery in case you want it to cut off at a higher voltage to help prolong battery life. See those same settings that people can "abuse" to squeeze out a little faster speed or want to eek out every last ounce of battery power, can also be used for good. This is why I say its really bad for business to pull this kind of crap. It's not their responsibility to lock those settings. I mean, I did just fork out $900 for a bicycle. I shouldn't have to replace the controller on it because a company decides they want to start locking settings that they shouldn't be locking.
1 very tiny scratch on the front right fork, it is deep enough you can feel it but it's pretty thin so not really noticeable.
The pedals appear to be on the right way, no cross-threading. It felt really tight and would not budge using the tiny tool they give you but if you use a proper pedal wrench, you can get 1/4 to 1/2 a turn more in tightening them with very little effort.
The derailer guard was not bent. It appears all the gears work.
The new light and new latches on both the frame and folding handlebar.
It showed it came with a full charge yet putting it on the charger, it took almost 3 hours to turn green. I forgot to look at the voltage before I put it on the charger.
