Was riding with my sister in law the other day and sure could have used this info at end of your video. She was on a regular bike! Next time will be a better ride together. Thanks so much for the info! I always enjoy your videos! Great job!👍😊🚲
Hi Karen...Sorry I didn't get this posted earlier 😢 I've had this on my mind for a week or so and looks like it took too long to get it posted. Thanks for the kind words as usual! 😊 It sounds like you are out enjoying your bike so that it great!! I have one more coming probably tomorrow to show how the "Walk" mode works if you need to push the bike for any length of time. Maybe that will help as well? Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Jerry…I appreciate that! I had a lot of questions when I got my first ebike so I wanted to make sure I talk about everything that I would have liked to have heard before I bought mine. Most of my videos are riding videos but I talk a lot about ebikes while I ride. So there are hidden gems in most of my videos. Thanks again and don’t hesitate to ask me anything.
Thanks Peter!! I'm glad you found it helpful😊 I'll be posting a video, hopefully early tomorrow, showing the "Walk" mode on these bikes. You can use it to help you if you are pushing the bike for whatever reason.
I didn’t even know about this!! I could have used this a couple of months ago when I went riding with a friend. Great video and thanks for the advice!!
I’m glad I could help…even if it was a little late😂 I don’t know if you are aware of the “Walk” feature but I’ve got a video on that that I’ll be posting tomorrow morning. I’ve heard a lot of people who didn’t know about the cruise feature.
Hi MsBlueSage and thanks for stopping by and commenting!! I thought this video might help some who haven't used it before. It can have several useful purposes. That's great that you have a 2.0 on order...I know you will love it! 😊 I let my daughter ride my wife's step through this weekend and she did very well and LOVED it!!! That video is coming soon and should be posted Tuesday afternoon. Have a great afternoon!!
New sub here. Wife and I just got our Lectric bikes and we're trying to learn all we can. Thank you so much for taking the time to post your educational vids on these bikes. We're just waiting for the sun to lower a bit more (cool down) so we can get on the bikes and go for a ride this evening. This Texas heat is no joke.
Hi Crappie Craze! Thank you for both subbing and stopping by😁. I hope you enjoy our videos as much as I enjoy making them. Please don’t hesitate to ask me anything…I love talking bikes and other things. We have several Texans that comment here so I’m well aware of the heat you are going through. Most of them do a lot of night riding. Again, thanks and I appreciate you!!
@@ReflectionsofOurLife ..I understand about talking to folks about something you love doing. I'm that way about crappie fishing. Even though I haven't put up a vid in almost 3 years, I still get folks getting ahold of me on fb and many times I'll have to give them my phone # to help them figure out things on their fish finders or just talk crappie fishing. I've made some life long friends from UA-cam. We bought these bikes hoping they'll give me more stamina so I can get back out on the water fishing and get us back to camping. Medical problems have grounded me. Many surgeries on my spine and neck plus other related problems. At least I'm no longer bed ridden and these bikes have given me a fighting chance to regain some of what I've lost.
It’s nice to talk to someone who knows what I’m talking about. Do you have the 1.0 or the 2.0? I would suggest getting a cloud 9 seat or something along those lines as well as a suspension seat post. They would really help you with your back issues. My wife just had hip replacement surgery about 7 weeks ago and she was out on her Lectric bike 5 weeks out of surgery. They are great for people with health issues including me with a knee problem. I’m also 300lbs and it has given me an Avenue to get out and do more exploring and exercise than I would have been able to do before these bikes. I love fishing as well so I might have to get some tips from you too😁. I love your Crappie Craze icon…is that the name of your UA-cam page as well?
Thank you Project DX! We try our best to strike a balance between information on ebikes and entertainment/love of the outdoors with our viewers. I welcome any questions people have and am happy to help in any way I can. Thanks again!😁
Hi Leroy! Thanks for watching...I hope this was somewhat helpful. I have another video about the walk feature coming tomorrow morning more than likely. Have a great weekend!!
Thanks for watching Ben! That's great news...she will absolutely love it!! I just went on a ride with my wife, who has a stepthrough, and my daughter who was on a regular bike. They switched bikes and my wife lasted only a couple of miles on the regular bike and took the Lectric back from my 11 year old daughter. My daughter got mad the rest of the way home!!😂 You'll have to let me know how it goes when it arrives!
Hi Juan! It looks like you are my 300th subscriber!!! I really appreciate it and glad you like my videos😊 I have a clunker every now and then but try to make them as interesting and entertaining as possible. I'm glad to hear that you have a 2.0 on the way...I know you will LOVE it!! I just posted a new video today where I got my 11 year old daughter on one about halfway through the video and she loved it. Thanks again for stopping by, subscribing and leaving a comment. Have a great evening!!
Good explanation, but I really wish you had the display showing current rather than odometer, so I could of seen the actual power draw in each of the situations. Continuously tap the power button til CUR shows on the display to do that.
Thanks and I apologize about that. Because of my size, close to 300lbs., my current levels are going to be quite a bit different than those of normal weight people. I can tell you that the cruise control on these bikes are a lot different from a cars cruise control. It's not really going to save any volts using the cruise like a car's cruise can save gas. It mainly depends on how fast you set it and if you peddle or not with it. It's just like setting a new peddle assist at what ever speed you want instead of the preset peddle assist and you can stop peddling without using the throttle to keep at that set speed. I'll try to remember to start showing the current more on my videos to show the difference between having the bike work harder for you or you working harder for the bike.
@@ReflectionsofOurLife No need for apology. I'm just giving my two cents of what I for one would like to see. Thanks for the information. I enjoy your videos and pleasant demeanor with story telling and bike info during the ride. I look forward to receiving my own 2.0 lectric Step-Thru. Been waiting over 6 weeks so far.
I appreciate you’re suggestions and will definitely try to use all suggestions in my videos. I have already filmed another ride but will start showing the current as much as I can. I’m glad you enjoy the videos and look forward to making many more!😁. I hope yours comes soon…you’ll have to let me know how you like it when it comes.
Thanks. One thing I'd like to point out. The first time you set the cruise control you set it at 10 mph. The second time you said you wanted to set it at a lower speed, and you set it at around 6.8 to 7.1 mph. So the second time, when you said it wasn't holding at 10 mph, but only at 6.8 to 7.1, it was actually spot on because that's what you'd set it at. Again -- thanks for the video. I'm seriously considering pulling the trigger on the 2.0. I have 2 other Ebikes that are great, but the Lectric 2.0 looks like a great bike for the price. (O/T: Because of the colors at first I though you were at Ikea -- blue and yellow.) :-D
I wondered if anyone would notice that so I guess you are the winner!!! I noticed that when I watched it back again after it was uploaded. I guess I just got confused 😂 I'd say if you are in the market for another ebike, this would definitely check most all the boxes including the price tag. This is my first ebike and I can say that I can't really think of anything else I would want this bike to be able to do. I hadn't thought of the color scheme but I was at one of our local schools 😊
@@ReflectionsofOurLife Cheers! I wasn't trying to criticize, I only wanted to point out, since you were focused on the cruise control, that it was accurate at lower speeds, which is critical when riding with slower riders, as you pointed out. I'm an average older heavier club rider but since our club doesn't have an "Ebike only" category, I started riding with the fastest, strongest club riders, otherwise I ended up riding by myself, no matter how hard I tried to slow things down. My bike is pedal assist only and it doesn't have a huge motor but it's got a mid drive motor/torque sensor set up that just rocks. It allows me to really fly up hills. And since I live in a hilly terrain, sort of like your area, I'm always out in front before I know it, even with some of the strongest club riders. So a bike with cruise control might help.
Thanks…no offense taken at all. It’s nice that you were watching so closely that you noticed that…no one else has😁. It lets me know that you were interested. I know what you mean about riding with regular bikes. My wife and I did a video with my daughter who was on a regular bike and it was a little excruciating riding so slow with her😁. I love the ebikes because they give you the opportunity to cover a lot of ground in a much shorter amount of time and for older folks like me, they let me explore farther out than I normally would. They are great fun!! I appreciate you!!😁
@@ReflectionsofOurLife Thanks. And likewise -- we're on the same page. When I started club rides with my Ebike it caused quite a stir, because I'd ridden with these folks for years on a regular bike, and the Ebike was kind of perceived by some as "cheating". (There's a lot of ego involved with some bike riders, despite the fact that it's something that should be a fun, recreational, and at times even competitive activity.) I basically ignored the people who had that attitude, and gravitated towards people who didn't mind or actually enjoyed the challenge -- sort of like horses vs steam engines. I tried to not be an a-hole about it, but you just can't please some folks. I look at it the way you do -- it enabled me to keep riding, enjoy the scenery, ride places I'd avoided in the past because of the hills, and get up off the couch. (Eventually we got more Ebike riders, but even when I rode with them I found that my bike, in combination with myself and years of road bike riding, was just too strong so I did a lot of stretches riding alone.) And there were times when I didn't even use the pedal assist because I wanted to push my conditioning. (I was, when I first got the Ebike, rehabbing from a very serious motorcycle accident.) One time a guy riding next to me said: "Man, that thing is so quiet!" I smiled. I told him that's because I was riding it without the motor, just like a regular, albeit heavy, 20 speed bike. (My Ebike has a double chain ring/front derailleur and it really does perform like a heavy loaded touring bike, just more nimble since it handles like a nice road bike. It's got drop handlebars, weight about 45 pounds, and on rolling terrain, extrapolated out on 50 mile rides, I was getting the equivalent of around 125 mile range at 16 mph average.) So I guess the moral is: Have fun. Ride safe. And be well.
Luckily, I haven't had anyone say anything derogatory about my ebike so far that I'd have to deal with. Like I've said in several of my videos, there just aren't very many bike riders in my area and if I do pass someone, they don't even seem to notice that it's an ebike. I have had a lot of people say, "Nice bike", or "what kind of bike is that". They are just curious and haven't seen one before. I usually do have PAS 1 or 2 selected but I generally out-peddle it and the motor doesn't even kick in when I'm around people so they don't notice anything different. I love the ebike because I've ridden more miles this year than I probably have my entire life!! The Lectric weighs 63lbs. so it's a bear to peddle unless you are on the flat.
Hi Mrbr549! Thanks...I thought it might help for those that don't know about the cruise control. Also, you must be reading my mind...I shot a video about the walk feature on the same day that I did this one. I almost have it finished and will probably post it early tomorrow morning. 😊
Hi Reel Photo...good to hear from you! It's good to hear that you are waiting for a Lectric bike! You won't be disappointed, I guarantee you will not regret the wait! I'm not sure what I'm waiting for but I have not purchased a spare battery. I have heard that there are some through Ali Baba that have a higher AmpHour than our original ones. That is definitely something that I will be getting in the near future. Battery life is something that a person my size always keeps in the back of my mind. I have done several videos that tested the range in different environments and I can say that for someone close to 300bls. I can safely get 25 miles out of the current battery. But I do want to take longer trails so I'll be looking to get another one soon.
Try looking up your screens model number and user manual on google. You might be able to get that procedure from the manual. I’ve had some success doing that with other screens.
Just sitting here watching the driveway camera, and messing with the Rock Bros MTB pedals I got to change out the foldies that will come with my bike. Their powder blue with aircraft grade bearings. Powder blue handlebars, Zoom hydro brakes, no Feminine touches to this one. It's a mans bike. Powder blue matches the paint accents. 93 cans of beer in the fridge, 83 cans of beer.... Bwwwaaahhhhaaaa
You just gave me a great picture in my head. I picture you looking like a NASCAR pit crew at the entrance to your driveway. As soon as the bike hits the ground a flurry of activity like the Tasmanian Devil will whirl around that box and when it stops, a ray of sunshine will be shining down on an already upgraded bike ready to be put through it's paces!!!😂😂😂
@@ReflectionsofOurLife And I have Air tools 😁🕶️👍 Cute story, I bought the Goldwing I have from a dealership in Columbus, Ohio. I flew to the city and got a cab to the dealership. As usual the monkeys made the wrong bike ready. mine was still in the crate. I sat with the owner of the place and convinced him to let me put my bike together. 4 hours later he was amazed that I had that skill. he let me sleep on the couch in the office and then took me to breakfast. Life long friend was made. He's gone now, but that was one of his favorite storys.
@@ReflectionsofOurLife I am one of the few people on earth that can mess up minute rice. But put a wrench in my hand and watch the magic. The passion I have for bikes can't be explained. When I am riding, I'm free. 🕶️
I believe my top speed with my stock gearing is 28mph. I have a video about Coopers Rock where I’m riding on the main road and hit 28 I believe. If I change my gear cassette, I think I could break 30 with a little effort.

If I am unable to get the cruise control to engage is it because something is not plugged in?

I sat with the owner of the place and convinced him to let me put my bike together. 4 hours later he was amazed that I had that skill. he let me sleep on the couch in the office and then took me to breakfast. Life long friend was made. He's gone now, but that was one of his favorite storys.
Why am I not surprised!! 😂 I do too...great things to have!
@@ReflectionsofOurLife I am one of the few people on earth that can mess up minute rice. But put a wrench in my hand and watch the magic. The passion I have for bikes can't be explained. When I am riding, I'm free. 🕶️
I definitely believe that and understand the freedom you’re speaking about. It’s a bit new to me but I’m learning!😁👍
I would like to see your top speed as a guy who is 12lbs lighter then you.
I believe my top speed with my stock gearing is 28mph. I have a video about Coopers Rock where I’m riding on the main road and hit 28 I believe. If I change my gear cassette, I think I could break 30 with a little effort.
