What other tips do you have for fellow Lectric owners or soon to be owners?
lectricebikes.sjv.io/XxJEKb We would appreciate it if we helped you make the decision to buy any Lectric model. All purchases made after clicking that (or any of our links) helps support us here, and keep the ebikes charged. Thank you all for the support!
I bought a 2.0 last year it broke down a few months ago. Lectric was supposed to replace it with another 2.0 but they ran out so instead they’re sending me a 3.0 for free God is great😂😂😂
I was the cycling coach at Penn State, but old age and health issues have caught up to me. your video was excellent, and I'll be using your evaluation to purchase my step through 3.0 extended range. Thanks...u have given me the courage and motivation to get back onto the road..... thanks...
When I got my Lectric 3.0 long range step thru I also got a Husky lock & stack 45 gallon tote.....fits perfect.
Then I slide the tote into the back seat of my car.
Yesterday I received my free hydraulic brake upgrade so that's on my to do list now.
When the PWR Module become available I will order that as well.
Lectric is a top shelf company imo.
Thanks for sharing!
I purchased the Lectric Lite, and I love it, for me. I did upgrade with a cloud 9 seat and the best 17:15 seat post. Also put front shocks and fenders. I can still lift it in my Husky Tote! Thanks, guys!!
I absolutely LOVE my 3.0 high step!
I have it all decked out too... Except, I don't have hydraulic brakes.
IDC though.... The mechanical brakes work just fine and this little bike has taken me all over the place.
Had to upgrade my foldable pedals as well.
I have about $1,300 in my bike and I just can't get enough of it! All I need now is an extra battery!
thank you for this video. im 55 years young and always had a bicycle in my life.( mostly mt biking ) i thought that would change when i was diagnosed with terminal illness, i mean i still ride my bicycle today, i just cannot ride up hills or inclines anymore. good news is i live right off a walkway so i can be able ride further now with the help of this bike. ☺❣ you convinced me with this great review. they seem like a really nice company Lectric.
Thanks for watching! Appreciate it if you use our link before you buy.
Thanks! Being a disabled Vet this helped me out a lot as it truly showed me features others have not. I have a bad knee and back along with COVID lung and I need something I can start doing a bit of exercise with. Keep up the great posts.
Wow thanks John! Hope you enjoy your ebike and thanks for your service!
I'm in E-bike pitbull research mode - have watched several reviewers videos over the last couple weeks. Yours are the most thoughtful and thorough. Excellent content. When I finally pull the trigger, I'll be using your affiliate link 🤙
did you pull it if so what did you get
Good job guys! I am enjoying my New Updated XP 3.0
Sweeeet!
I recently go the suspension seatpost, and it has made a HUGE difference in comfort while riding on trails with lots of tree roots, which were jarring my spine. This seatpost has smoothed out that experience. Highly recommended!
High step bike is better than the step through if you have a backup battery and plan to swap the battery frequently.
This is a great breakdown of the differences of the controllers. Lectric's new PWR system makes the bikes more efficient and way better than there old controller. Nice work guys!
Lectric is amazing, they really are the best bike for value.
Bull shit
Great video as usual Ryan and JT
Thanks for watching!
@@EbikeEscapeno problem. You guys are killing the review game lol.
You guys are bad ass. I'm waiting for my new 3.0
Ha thanks
No body can beat these bikes I love mine and have motor cycles if need to no I've done o or 160 mph on a bike great e bike
I got my 2 XP 3.0 bikes on August 1st. Haven't ridden them yet. Tomorrow.
They look and feel bulletproof. Not cheap at all.
I really wonder how Lectric can price these bikes so cheaply WITH free shipping. 1 bike looks like it's worth about $2200.
Amazing deal. I'm still SMH at the price.
Another great review guys! You are very good at what you do and we always enjoy your videos. I am having issues with my Lectric 3.0 seat post clamp no maintaining my seat height and have tried to contact Lectric multiple times with no response. Do you have any suggestions for a good replacement clamp? I believe it is a 39.4mm clamp size and my internet searches have not turned up much and the few I've found are out of stock.
Try the owners group on Facebook. Thanks for watching Kevin.
Update:
The wife and I took our xp 3.0 bikes out for a 3 hour ride in the park. We both love the bikes. Takes a little getting used, too.
The hydraulic brakes work good. Still a bit noisy though.
The kids in the park freak out over the bikes. One older guy said "wow! Those are beautiful bikes!"
He may be making a purchase soon after I told him the price.
Lectric makes a solid bike.
Nice!
Thanks for the comparison review. Lectric sent me a free hydraulic brake upgrade with a new wheel/tire/disk & brakes and I wasn't sure if I was going to install it. Now I might change my mind.
Oh you should! Our video will be out soon - it's not too bad if you take your time.
Well then they should send me one!
Did you have to bug them about it or what?
@TheFLOMAN76 no, they sent an email asking if I wanted the upgrade offer.
Lectric stands behind there bikes ❤
I have the 3.0 and have a125 miles on it and have not had any problems with it but I'm still waiting for my free battery its been a while
what are the limiting currents for each of the 5 levels of Pedal Assist, with the new controller?
When the bike is in the tote how high is it? I have a small SUV , Lexus UX 200, and the rear hatch opening is small. Once in it should fit fine.
Thanks for your videos!
Thanks for the video. My soon to be sister-in-law has an XP 3.0 and I'll be sure she sees this video. Would you happen to know if the XP trike controller is speed limited or amp limited? Amp limit control sure looks like a better way to go.
It is amp limited and is listed on their site what it is in each PAS.
Thank you.
Where can I buy a second battery that will fit the 3.0 for a better price than lectrics?
Hey, have you guys seen the HiPEAK ELIAS Step-Thru Folding E-bike? Would sure like to see a review and maybe a comparison with the Lectric.
So, when are we getting adaptive cruise control ?
I should be receiving my 3.0 step through in 6 days. How will I know for sure that it is the upgraded version with amp limit not speed limit? Seems like a big difference. Thanks for the good info in the video.
@@emigs8712 where is your post
I need a battery bag for xp 3.0 step-thru battery to mount on rear rack any suggestions
How many gallon totes do you have there?
Was height of riders (black helmet guy) mentioned? Is it comfortable? I’m tall too.
Will you do a range test? Thanks
Yea, i would love to see the range increase with the new power controller.
Maybe, Lectric actually does a decent job of stating accurate figures. Also, there are just so many factors that impact range so it's hard to talk about. Check out the FB group perhaps for some range estimates as well.
Multiple Brake Failures on all Three of our XP 3.0's.
One really scary 😱 as we approached an Intersection.
We're still waiting on replacements.
Lectric should have prioritized Existing Owners over New Sales.
Sorry to hear about the brake failure. If I'm not mistaken that's part of the reason that the 3.0 with hydraulic brakes wasn't available right away. When did you request your kits? Some received the kits even before we did, weeks ago.
For the price suntour should come with shim
Do you guys know of any aftermarket headlights that will plug in to the existing plug on the xp 3.0? My elite headlight just snapped off the other day. I heard it's a very common problem with the large headlight.
You might try reaching out to Lectric support- I just asked if the elite headlight had a warranty and sent a pic of my snapped one and they had a new one on the way in a few hours.
Hey guys, I purchased the XP2.0 step thru last year . Do you know if Electric has a controller and a brake upgrade to bring my bike up to date? …thanks for your help, Tc from Nevada
The controller and brakes will not be offered, from Lectric, for the XP 2.0. One reason being that the motor is different and not able to use the same controller.
The brakes can be purchased from Amazon and such. Here is our recommendation: amzn.to/3Yqczr3 (affiliate link)
@@EbikeEscape thank you for your quick response and suggestion , I will definitely look into those brakes as I’m planning a dual battery to extend my distance.thanks again, Tc from Nevada
Did they add more spokes to the wheels on the new model? It looked like it in one view.
Hmm not that I'm aware of
Hydraulic disc brakes on an ebike are like a small version of car disc brakes.
I didn't find the link to the 27.2mm to 31.8mm shim. I see a lot of 27.2mm to 31.6mm online. Will the 31.6mm shim work with the 31.8mm slot?
It is listed on our accessories list. Here is a link to the shim though: amzn.to/45Vq2K0 (affiliate link)
@@EbikeEscape Thanks for the link. I did go through the accessories list and I missed it. 🙂 What spoke wrench would you recommend?
I wouldnt complain of a $100 price increase with a torque sensor!
Which is the new one ?
The one with hydraulic brakes
Life would be even more perfect if they could offer zero interest loans for two of them😁
Got the 3.0 long range and I hate it with a passion...The throttle only function only allows you to go 18mph and the speed isn't consistent. If someone has a 2.0 with under 2000 miles I will trade it for this New 3.0.
You guys never mention the need for a mirror and I think that’s an absolute essential item for safety. I’m surprised the manufactures don’t include them as a standard guess they just are not that concerned about their customers safety.
Yes that should have really been something we discussed. We love using mirrors and I think they are absolutely necessary
The only thing I would update, is this companies horrible customer service/warranty process. When you spend $1200.00, and have to wait 2 months to receive then use it for a month, lose the motor, and are told it will be another 2 months before they even ship out a replacement rear axle package is not acceptable. I love the bike, but my next ebike will be from a company that has the inventory to cover "existing" customers.
JUST AN FYI. I WILL DO EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO TRASH LECTRIC BIKES. This whole experience has been a shit show from the time I ordered the bike; it was delivered 2 1/2 months late. Your response is nothing but bullshit talking about the Expedition and volts and wattage. I understand electrical systems very well, apparently much better than you do. A standard performance should be expected for all XP 3.0 The assist levels should be the same on all XP 3.0 bikes; your internal algorithm should have the capacity to work when a bike is adjusted from a class 2 to a class 3. Apparently, your bike doesn’t have that simple capacity leaving it worthless when you are in PAS 3 with little pedaling going 24 mph.
FROM Lectric
Now that your eBike has been changed to a class 3, the PAS speeds are expected to change.
Every eBike will behave differently depending on the condition that's being used.
Also, please keep in mind our new 3.0 eBikes have received a new controller upgrade which will change the way the bike performs. Our new Pedal Assist Wattage Regulation (PWR) programming for the XPedition, XP 3.0 & XP Trike allows for an improved Pedal Assist experience by assisting the rider up to a certain power level for each PAS setting, instead of limiting the assistance by speed.
Each model equipped with PWR has a tailored approach for limiting power based on their use case. PWR effectively limits the amperage output of the controller sending electricity to the motor. How amperage at the controller relates to peak wattage for the motor can be calculated by multiplying max amperage output of the controller by the voltage of the system. Lectric ebikes operate on 48-volt systems and 48-volt batteries charge to 54.6-volts. For example, When this mathematical equation is applied to the XPedition that has a max amperage output of 24 at the controller, multiplied by 54.6 calculates to 1,310 watts of power that can be sent to the rear hub motor to propel a rider. PWR uses this expression for each PAS level but is tailored for each specific bike equipped with this technology.
For example, XPedition in PAS 3, has a max output of 15 amps (819 watts, 63% of peak output of controller and motor) up to 20mph in Class 2 setting while pedaling, and 28mph in Class 3 setting for assistance while pedaling.
Have an amazing rest of your day.
Best,
Itzel
Bike is so junk
When was the new version of the 3.0 released?
