How does your speedometer react to change in speed? Here's why I'm asking the questiion.
Recently my speedometer (Rad Rover) changed in the way it reacts. Up to the other day, the speedo would change immediately with the change of speed, both up and down. Now it takes seconds to adjust downward. If I'm riding at 20 mph and come to complete stop, it will take 4-5 seconds to register back at 0. also, it seems to record higher speeds before that speed is aquired. This is new for my ebike.
I communicated with Rad Power Bikes, which by the way responded immediately, and they asked me to send some video clips which I did. They said this was normal speedometer behavior. They indicated that their test ebikes responded the same way. I have questioned why the change but that can not be explained as of yet. I also told them that with this issue, my bike has become more zippier (which I like). I was thinking somehow there was a some change in the controller.
