I tried to get a wiring diagram and wasn't able to, they could be available now but will be very specific to your exact model of scooter and what controller it has.

Awesome, this is a great trike conversion kit for the more mature riders out there. Happy Holidays!

I actually ordered a litepro like a brompton, not sure if I'll turn it into and ebike though. I think building one from scratch would save some effort with removing the drivetrain, interesting idea.

always!!

I never had nor when I was a scooter dealer did I see any come in.

I don't have it any longer but I know someone with one and it held up for a few years before they upgraded.

Please let me know if you start to feel remorse, I hope it works out well for you!

I think this would be fine for a taller person especially with the easy to adjust handlebars

There is some movement in battery recycling, hungryforbatteries.org. I don't see batteries ever becoming standard but behind the battery cradle is a very standard wire connection. You could make any compatible voltage battery work with it, it is the benefit of dumb ebikes like these vs. smart ones like Bosch where the battery has to communicate with the rest of the system.

Thank you for the nice comment. I would say steep hills on this scooter really depend on how large of a rider you are and how many hills you have. A few steep hills are ok with some kicking to help, if you had a lot of hills on a ride I think it would be too much for the scooter. Thanks

Hello, this may be too late for your purchase decision but I think this could work for a 6'3" rider. If you have really long arms perhaps a longer stem down the road. The Brose system is really nice and makes for a good multi-purpose bike.

@@ElectronSurfer Thanks for the reply!

They don't use their 1.0, 2.0 numbers with the Xpress, just the 500 vs. 750 watt. This is the newest Xpress they have.

You may be thinking of the Xpeak and Xpeak 2.0…

I don't know about the XP 3.0 but the Xpress Stealth M24 motor does make noise. I do prefer the quiet hub motors which this is not.

They aren't actual gears even though many displays say "gear", there is nothing to destroy.

Nice, please let me know your thoughts!

I got an average of 40.5 miles, the advertised range is always way off. Cheers

That could work, you really need just enough room to get it started. Good idea.

huh?!

ok.....duh

Yes that is correct, with a 32" inseam I am riding with my seat almost at the minimum height.

Thank you for the comment, I am glad you are loving the bike!

@ElectronSurfer I think you would be happy with a class 4 e bike. $2000 wired, freesky, Mokwheel, e cells. Wait for sales Guys like more power and speed from throttle alone. Don't be 🤬. Your not the only one who bought the wrong e bike.

100% right on! Cheers

I do not, I will do that on my next build.

@@ElectronSurfer Thanks, Out of interest, why a 52V battery and not 48v? Whats the difference? Does 4v make a massive difference?

Btw when choosing battery I went for the G70 on purpose, not only does it have the full metal mounting rail along it's length but that also gives better mounting options. I do ride mtb trails though so for me secure mounting is a bit more important I guess.

I haven't tried OSF, you have to buy a programming cable and display, or just the cable. I have thought about a comparison with new firmware, I do have some data on the 500 watt vs 750 watt version.

@@ElectronSurfer I would like that for sure, I got the 500w but currently running 750w with OSF should be the same as a 'stock' 750w with OSF set to 750w since only firmware differs. I found I do need that cooling mod I installed, it does get quite warm still when pushing hard for long time. I think the external heatsink which I didn't install would fix that but I thought it would look quite suspicious so I didn't. For the cable, I bought that VT-Link v2 programmer and used the wiki guide to adapt the cables it came with. If you're going to install OSF, I would recommend ordering two programmers, they are quite cheap and you'll get two set's of cables. You only need the 3 wires specified in the wiki, but I would still 100% recommend sleeving the metal connectors with some heatshrink. And disconnect battery before programming, it's only recommended in the wiki but I'm one of those who's programmer died after the first couple of reads. Disconnected the battery, used the spare one I ordered and haven't had any issues since. You could spend 30-40 euro on a cable off course, but unless you plan on using it a lot I wouldn't bother.

It was pretty damn fun to ride, I had another person say they were going to swap in a li-ion battery, that would be sweet. Those first ride experiences really stick with us, its a great way to stay young and have fun. Thanks for the comment

It sometimes takes a few times, I also noticed it will revert after firmware updates.

It is not necessary at all, most of the settings can be changed by combinations of the throttle/brake/display buttons.

My only suggestion would be to actually ride for awhile before you buy a second battery, for most people it is really overkill when carrying your charger and topping off while eating lunch will cover most rides. Packing that extra battery is going to be pretty heavy. Cheers

I actually don't agree with that at all, sure you can get a lot of bikes around $1,000 but I don't think they are any better than this one. It had a true 750 watt motor and good size battery, current bikes under $1,200 - $1,500 are still giving you basic electronics which hasn't changed significantly. I appreciate the comment.

@@ElectronSurfer I have a bike called the keteles I brought it from Temu 1000w dual motorsI I pay 999 for it. I just don’t see how this bike matches up to this bike

@@darkenergy361 Well sounds like they are not even comparable from any perspective except price? Comparing that to the dual motor Ariel Rider Grizzly could be interesting though.

There are 3 places to put one.

Not easily unfortunately, it's a bit of a process to change these bars. I didn't even want to try it on mine and sold it because of that.

I agree on your Lectric take, I don't like their constantly shifting prices and/or bunch of free stuff. Thanks for the heads up on the bike, hopefully mine doesn't have major issues. I am going to do a ranking of the direct ebike brands, I think RAD, Aventon, Ride1up, are all a step above Lectric in quality. Now the Urban Arrow, that's a whole different game, it looks absolutely amazing (and huge) in person, I have yet to ride one but will shoot a video when I do! Thanks for the great comment

Hey that's all I can hope for...cheers!

As far as I know when you put it in sport mode in the menu and select the highest limit setting, that's all you can do. There seems to be a lot of variability in what people see as the actual top speed.

@@ElectronSurfer I suppose that makes sense I top out at 23.5mph and I’m 168 pounds so I appreciate your comment makes sense!

The real star is the torque sensor, doesn't do everything advertised but will be great for a lot of riders!

Thanks Tim, should be up soon. Good to see you!

It's Jim actually! Lectric is of course made in China but not distributed direct from China via aliexpress, etc. Cheers

Very good points, on my full reviews I also put my weight in the description so folks know. I either do performance data in the main video or a separate video. I tend to combine them more now, do you think a separate performance video is more helpful. I also appreciate the kind works, cheers.

I would expect the speedway to be faster because of the voltage, I don't have direct experience with the Mini 4 pro though. I would look at weight first, voltage second, controller output 3rd....speed tends to be a balance of these.

I totally agree, I'm considering getting the V2 model with front suspension!

that's a bummer, there are some better quality fat tire options out there now, yes most ebike stock tires are not too great.

You feel a small amount of resistance from the hub motor plus the battery would make it heavier than a non-assisted bike, but yes you can ride it like a regular road bike.

I just looked in the online manual, cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0425/6350/2247/files/S2R_Plus_usual_manual.pdf, and don't see anything. As long as you are in sport mode it should be at the maximum speed, I have noticed variability in how close to the advertised max speed some Hiboy's will go. Cheers

Thank you and sorry I don't still have the trailer to check the size. I would be careful using bike bearings at highway speeds and check it after a few rides to make sure it is holding up to that.
