Magicycle Ocelot Pro and New Riders Important! Do This First!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- Before riding your new Magicycle Ocelot Pro or Cruiser Pro. Any Magicycle E-bike needs to have this done before your first ride. Hope you enjoy! I use to be a RV channel, until I found e-bikes, that changed my life. I love everything about e-bikes and vlogging e-bike content. E-bike education and how to fix or repair e-bikes and of course riding them. My goal is to make videos educational, fun, motivational and entertaining. I make video content for my own enjoyment, as a hobby. Remember I am an amateur not a professional so please excuse some less than perfect editing. My videos now have a primary focus on e-bikes, because there is so much great content with reviews, accessories, riding and vlogging about those rides.

Thanks for a good informational video. Just put my Ocelot Pro together. Charging the battery and taking it out for a ride in the morning . Mine came with the PAS 1 at 20 percent.
Your efforts certainly got my subscription
Appreciate the subscription. ;-)
Excellent Information Bruce! Sadly there are still a lot of people who will get on it for the first time and takeoff not knowing they need to set the PAS settings. Yes it's true, 40% will jerk an knot in your neck LOL
I’m so excited. Hubby just ordered mine!!! 🤩😁😁😁❤
Congrats! Im sure you will love it. Just had a couple come look at mine and take it for a test ride. I think they will be ordering 2 soon via a dealer. Hope it all goes smooth for them as well as you.
Thanks for the video, what about the voltage settings where it shows a battery with 4 bars on the left and on the right 5 voltage levels?
Great video emphasizing safety. Agree you have to adjust the settings as PAS 1 at 40% is insane even to experienced riders. Hopefully ordering the Cruiser Pro in a week and will use your % settings before riding. The Ocelot Pro would be perfect for my wife (and for me too). I'm working on convincing her😂
Bruce Thank you very much for the words or wisdom and safety tips. I will certainly follow your settings when ready to ride. When I tried/tested the Cruiser Pro in AZ, I did notice the aggressive power setting even on PAS1 and that is something that I will adjust before my first ride. Thanks to your videos, I have "checklist" of things to consider or steps to follow when the Ocelot arrives and I am ready for assembly.
Thank u for taking the time and making this video. I ordered a Ocelot pro three weeks ago, hopefully I’ll be getting it soon.
I just received the ocolet pro and I could not see in the instructions how to turn the bike on they should of had a close up picture of the controller.this had me confused BUT WHEN I SEEN YOU TURN IT ON I GOT IT SO THANKYOU!
Absolutely no problem. TY. I sent a new to him bike to my father-in-law. he asked how to turn it on as well. Not intuitive on some of then for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Good points! Thank you for sharing!😀
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for sharing your wisdom! Good info for the newbies.
Your good! Thanks for your reviews
TY Greg, Very nice to make a kind comment.
Bless you! I hunted for this info as yes, 40% was way too high for PAS1. I tell everyone i know with any ebike to start low, u can alwats reset later!
sure is to high. They will eventually get it figured out. All good easy enough to change to more rider friendly settings.
That was helpful. I had adjusted my PAS power levels, but not the current limit. Oselot,is,a,sweet machine.
I like the review but more than that is the scenery, what city and state are you in, just beartiful
Oregon, North Plains. 20-25 miles out of Portland
Thank you for giving us this channel. You really help me out a lot. I have one quick question though I bought a brand new, ocelot pro and was wondering about the brakes. Is it normal for the front brake lever travel to be a lot less than the rear brake travel? it seems like I got to press the rear brake harder than the front brake. I haven’t ridden it yet and surely I don’t have to bleed the brakes brand new right out of the box do I ? You got my subscription.
Your Welcome. Thanks for the comment and subscribing. There are a couple of ways to adjust the amount of travel when squeezing the brake lever. 1. There is a barral adjuster at the end of the lever. If its rotated out to far the lever will not squeeze together, rotate it all the way back in or until the levers have equal pull. 2. You can adjust the the travel by adjusting the brake on the inside of the caliper of the wheel. It takes a allen head driver and screw it conterclockwise about 1/2 a turn at a time until it matches the other brake. I find this way best and actually very easy. It seems llike its harder, but its very simple. Hope this helps and welcome!
@@RVEnthusiast Does your comment include hydraulic brakes because that’s what I have?
@@russelln114 Sorry My bad it does not. the adjustment is on the outer side of the caliper and buried behind the brake lever.
@@RVEnthusiast Man I wish I knew where all that was at. It stinks that it’s brand new and it needs adjusted already.
RV, thank you👍👍
Why is there no water bottle holder on the ocelot? There seems to be room for it. It's making think of the big dog because there is one on it.
Bruce, I'm thinking of installing the Suntour SP12 NCX Suspension Seat Post (30.9mm x 350mm) for my yet-to-be-delivered Ocelot Pro. However, the OEM seat post is only 300mm. I'm concerned that the new seat post will bottom out and result in the seat height being a couple of inches higher than expected. I'm short (28-inch inseam), so a couple of inches would probably affect me.
Could you do me a favor and measure the depth of the seat post hole and post that information? If you have the time, can you do the measurement in comparison to your wife's OEM seat post? (E.g., fully inserted seat post length @ 10.0 inches + 2.5 inches more before frame bottoms out = 12.5 inches total available length for a seat post.)
So the post for the Ocelot is 10" and the seat post hole is right at 13" deep. I have a full 12'(300mm) seat post from another bike and it does not bottom out at a full 12" hope thats enough info for ya. Let me know anything else and I can easily check it for you.
@@RVEnthusiast Bruce, that information is very reassuring. 13 inches will swallow up the Suntour seat post, so that's more than enough space. All I need to do is worry about stick up height for the mounting portion plus the saddle height ... and for that, I think I have a more than comfortable margin for error. I.e., I don't really need to worry about it fitting me. It'll work. Thank you for taking the time to do the measurements! Aloha and mahalo nui loa!
@@1dash133 anythime brother! Appreciate the comment.
@@RVEnthusiast BTW, I installed the NCX seatpost and have been riding on it for about a month now. I have to say that the product really delivers a smooth ride! It's almost like I'm riding a full suspension bike. Very happy with the results.
Hey did you ever notice the difference on 22ah vs 15ah range and battery drain
Would lowering the amperage allow the throttle's ability to keep the bike at a slow pace? There are times when my leashed dog likes to meander. So 3 or 4 mph is a comfortable pace on my old 20" Lectric xp 2.0. Since we do about 5 miles every day, it's important that the pooch can slow trot when he wants. Is that beyond the Ocelot's throttle's ability if amps get lowered down to something like a 12? I'm ready to buy but need to know the cat can behave with my dog. I know it's not a torque sensor; I'm ok with that. I just don't want the throttle to bust us out of the gate like a young racehorse (to mix metaphors). Slow and steady would do. Thanks in advance.
I think it would. but why not use walk mode instead. Easy to use and a pace that is what you are thinking of. Also you can adjust the P settings to a percent you like, giving you the needed outut speed.
Thank you! That walk mode info is very helpful. Sounds like the Ocelot can work for us!@@RVEnthusiast
Do you ever use contact cleaner spray on your ebike connectors?
No I do not, but I don't think it could hurt.
I forgot password but got lucky and figured it out after about 2 weeks or so
You are the lucky one. I always make sure they are important to me...example, Birthdays and stuff simple only have to remember like 5 Birthdays so makes it easier.
I am 5'11" with a 30 " inccseam. Will the ocelot pro fit me OK?
Yes. I'm 5'11" with a 32 inch inseam and it's perfectly fine.
I think it will fit you well. Only thing possibly you may want to add an adjustable stem to raise the handlebars. Depends on what you think. As a 5’10” guy it is a very comfortable bike. With plenty of power and exceptional ride-ability
lost 28% battery in 4 minutes full throttle? that is a lotta drain...
I find these batteries loose a ton in the first few minutes. Its not real, but battery slump. You can see this when you throttle only for a full ride and get 25-27 miles on it. The Ocelot Pro however has a battery setting to save the battery at like 14 or 15% this can be reset to 5% in the settings I believe.
You never stated which bike you were riding was it the Ocelot Pro?
