REVIEW: QR-E 250W ELECTRIC BOOSTER BICYCLE MOTOR AND B60i AND B70 BATTERY

Just got mine today. First impressions are its does what I need to do. However the grip tape i got disintegrated mid ride, is it because I used a low quality one or too much pressure?

I forgot to take pics give more details as I was outside

3 km ride with friction tape, half way through i smelled burning or "melting" but thought it was from barbecue from a street parade (it was a coincidence), around 2.5km in i felt that boost was no longer boosting. Upon arriving I checked to see that grip tape was no longer there, with the black paint on the roller being completely worn off. I had applied the friction tape as 1 layer as I wasn't sure how much to apply and side by side.

So Im not sure if its just a bad tape that I got or a bad installation by me

(Also forgive me: I just learned and started my biking journey last month so this is basically my first "mod" to my bike)

Update: The tape no longer shoots out like a bullet, most likely because of the roller originally not being tight enough however im not sure if the roller is overtightened on the tire itself causing unnecessary wear. Is there a good way to check if its tight enough while prevent the tape ejection?

Are you using Qiroll grip tape? Ditch it. Because even if you clutch it right it does not provide full 1:1 ratio power. Somewhere along the ride i can feel it wasted/leaked out 30% of the roller through slippage.

No, im using the 3m safety walk kind, however when my location it wouldnt arrive fast enough so I bought a cheaper one, but its kept rejecting till yesterday, however i feel like I have the roller pushed down too hard as the screw clutch is almost too tight to turn anymore (about 90% tightened) if that makes sense
