Just the job: Been cycling years, now need that little bit of help. Delivered next day, fitted in 35 mins, took longer the fit extension bracket. 10 ml circuit testing on different tracks without a problem. Getting one for the wife asap. Cheers guys
Had the power and Bluetooth drop out issue. It was the battery causing the problem. Put the battery in from my wife's bike and all working well. I suspect that the contacts need crimping up but if you do this be very careful not to short out the connections. Clive is replacing my battery and as I live locally to him he's dropping it round. Can't complain about the service at all. Very helpful. 🙂
Had this kit for two years now,using it on an old road bike .My rule of thumb is ,2000 feet of climbing or 40 miles to each battery ,what ever is the sooner.
I do a 20mile round trip on mine and only use manual mode others are pointless i have alot of hills so i after use the trottle on them has for cutting out ive only had it on my rear hub ebike which cuts out after 16.5 mph this Easi-Fit hasnt so far its great on flat but does struggle on hills but i have broken most of my strava records on the Easi-Fit bike compared to my carrera Crossfire-E
Yeah manual mode since I have had mine , unfortunately you can't go higher speed if using the thumb controller thats why I binned and just use the phone . As you say its easier cycling with one than without.
is it possible to change from KM to mph on bluetooth display.i can get 45 miles no problem but i only use it at 10or 20% most of the times except on hard hill ill stick it 50 even 60% then back to 10%.im averaging 15mph on most spins. i bought a wired cateye computer just for miles average speed top speed .
I dont think you can change from KM to mph on the BT display , 45 miles is a good return I probably on average get around 30-35 miles but I keep mine on around 50% ...
Set the rear wheel on your foot and set gyroscopic setting,ignore warning and calibrate ...it works on all modes great (Clive from easifit ) told me 🤜🤛🚴💨💨💨spot on mate.
Probs around 25-30 miles if pedal assist set at around 50% . My old rear wheel kit range was about 40 miles but it was a heavy kit and a heavy battery too 😂
Im having a lot of power drop outs with mine where the bluetooth connection drops out both on the app and the LCD controller. I wondered if you had any issue like this? I notice your battery is held down with velcro, does this help the connection stay constant? thanks
Hi before every ride I always connect my bike in the search menu of the wepower bike app and connect my bike , and this is usually fine until I switch off the battery power when I have completed my journey. I then always need to reconnect everytime before re starting a new journey . I had noticed this a while back and this was my solution which now seems to work ok . The velcro strap was me just being OCD as usual , I dont like things if they have a slight rattle lol atb dave
@@davesolobiker5601 Thanks for the reply, yes it seems that i need to recalibrate the gyroscope everytime i reconnect the system (holding the up and down arrows together until you see the zeros) However i am still hearing the battery beep after that (like it loses connection) and the bluetooth symbol disappears.
Likely the battery connection. Had this issue with mine and Clive is replacing the battery. I checked this out by using the battery from my wife's bike. Works fine now.
i use bluetooth display on hard hills 50 to 60% fantastic.but at times it doesnt always kick in .i dont use it on the flat only drags and hills try to save on power .kicks in and out a lot so i turn it off then on again seems to work better.have to say tho its doing what i want it to do hills is a breeze.
@@davesolobiker5601 i passed 2 roadies on a very steep climb today they weren't to pleased ,one shouted he has a motor,i shouted back ,catch me if you can.they never did.
Been riding this kit since April and commute 16 miles to work everyday I totally agree with the diffent modes there not as effecient as manual mode but still get little blips of cut outs I've also got the same tyres and can't fault them I've got my 16 mile commute down to 58 minutes using 46% peddle assist I think it's a great bit of kit for the money Not sure how long the battery or motor are guaranteed for will have to ask Clive 👍
Good to hear you are working yours a lot harder than mine and it’s still going strong . Yeah the blip is annoying but not too bad . Tyres have made a massive difference already , yes I wonder what sort of mileage before the motor starts failing .
@@alanandconnielast it’s ok as an assist but don’t expect it to go up without pedalling , the 250w motor ain’t powerful enough . That’s how I find it anyway atb Dave
@@davesolobiker5601 Thanks, would you recommend i go over the 250w motor,,, I mean what would you say the gradeability is this, 10% or 15 maybe. This kit does not list the torque rating.
it can be connected via Bluetooth under smart device and cadence device in the app , just tried my wahoo speed/cadence sensor and it connected no probs . my wahoo sensor is fitted to my rear wheel hub atb Dave
@@davesolobiker5601 Thanks for the reply Solo Biker. I'm trying to connect to the latest bit of kit with the uprated battery etc. There nothing under smart device in the app settings menu on the latest app version. So I'm beginning to think they are no longer supported?
Hard to say really, i'm around 75kg and it works well for me . I personally would go for 500 or bigger . Take a look at another project I did here ua-cam.com/video/5x5YdHrzPGA/v-deo.html
Dear Solo Biker very helpful videos thank you for those purchasing the kit. Can you list best settings in your view on the app for different conditions or is Manual the best all rounder?
In my opinion I just use manual all the time and set the pedal assist around 50/60 % and I find this works best for me . I also set the max speed to 30mph as if set at unlimited it seems to reset to 15 each time I switch it off . Hope this helps atb Dave
i have 1200km on mine longest pin was 48 miles manual mode.,but i only use 10 to 20 % on the flat but crank it up to 50 or 70% when i hit the hills.on a spin say 20 to 30 miles if you use 30% to 50% will get you back home no problem..remember you still need to pedal..
My kit simply doesn't work. When I turn on the battery, and use the thumb throttle, it'll work for a few seconds then cut out and never come back on again until I restart the battery again.. The same thing happens on pedal assist-I thought I just wasn't feeling the power, but it turns out it just doesn't come on. If I turn the battery on and start pedalling immediately, the pedal-assist will work, but after a few seconds, it cuts out and never comes back on again until I restart the battery. Shit product
It sounds like something is faulty , I would be contacting easifit direct for a solution. Have you tried connecting the cable from the controller/battery directly to the thumb control? Always worth a try .
Hi I was watching all your video and it's looks neat, light weight and functional kit. I seen another kit (ultraebike.com/product/ultra-wheel) looks same and do you have any Idea that both kit from same manufacturer? Thx
They look very similar but the easifit kit has the PAS sensor built in and the other it needs added on an as extra . Apart from that very similar indeed

Thanks for that , I had battery issues in the first month and they replaced my battery no probs . Hopefully now all is good again on your bike 👍🚴🏻♂️

Hi, just installed the kit and have been trying out the modes to. I now just use manual mode with thumb throttle.
Nice 👍

What is weight difference between your normal wheel & the electric wheel
The wheel with the motor on is considerably heavier than one without .
i use bluetooth display on hard hills 50 to 60% fantastic.but at times it doesnt always kick in .i dont use it on the flat only drags and hills try to save on power .kicks in and out a lot so i turn it off then on again seems to work better.have to say tho its doing what i want it to do hills is a breeze.
Yes I have had that issue but a restart of the battery sorts it , glad its still doing what its supposed to .

Been riding this kit since April and commute 16 miles to work everyday
I totally agree with the diffent modes there not as effecient as manual mode but still get little blips of cut outs
I've also got the same tyres and can't fault them I've got my 16 mile commute down to 58 minutes using 46% peddle assist

Not sure how long the battery or motor are guaranteed for will have to ask Clive 👍
Good to hear you are working yours a lot harder than mine and it’s still going strong . Yeah the blip is annoying but not too bad .
Tyres have made a massive difference already , yes I wonder what sort of mileage before the motor starts failing .
I think the battery has 900 to 1000 full charging cycle life retaining 75% to 80% battery capacity. Motor has a 10year service life expectancy.
@@davesolobiker5601 Did you find out if it was any good at steep hills or not.

@@davesolobiker5601 Ultraebike says it's motor torque is 30nm but easy fit bike says there's 40nm🤔
Great video!
On the hill climbing mode it could possibly sense there wasn't a hill? With the gyroscope thing?
Oooops! You read my mind.
Thanks 👍
has the company gone under?
it may seem so ?
i see there a new stronger battery out,probably well over priced.
Probably I will take a look 👍
@@davesolobiker5601 cost me a fortune to buy it what with import duty.mind you I think it would be a tad long for my frame .
