I assembled mine out of the box this morning. No instructions, but i didnt need them. The hardest part was plugging in the display. Im old so it probably took me a half hour to assemble it. Tires were aired up already, welds are very nice. Lectric is only 200 miles south of me, in Arizona. I ordered mine on Friday afternoon, got it by Thursday morning. I love the street tires, hydraulic brakes, big headlight, everything. I didnt want the belt drive, chains are good, and fixable yourself. I dont need suspension, or want it. More weight, more to go wrong. Ride safe!

We all saw you blow through those stop signs. lol But seriously I’m going to swap over the mods from my original Lite; my DavidBrandNew FX folding stem and 9” rise BMX handlebar and Ergo grips, my Suntour suspension seatpost and Selle Italia Drifter seat, my Suntour suspension fork, my after-market crankset with full size pedals, chain tensioner, and larger chainwheel to reduce ghost pedaling, and my ElectricAllWheel dual battery balancer with 10ah battery giving a total of 24ah. It will be heavier, but way more comfortable and cool with all day battery power. I will miss my chrome finish cable operated hydraulic brakes and gray color 2.4” street tires but the new brakes and tires should be better performers.

I find it's the best rider at pas 2, and then using the throttle to assist it further as needed, like up hills. It rides best that way at around 15 mph. Leaving it in pas 3+ on level ground is just ghost pedaling it.

Chris, Thanks for your e-bike reviews. I picked up a used XP Lite a few months ago and enjoy it. I'll probably buy the Lite 2.0 later in the year. My only complaint about the XP Lite is the current 52/16 gear ratio topping out at 16 mph. I think the XP Lite would be a bit more enjoyable if I had some pedal left to cruise at 16-18 mph. To increase the gear ratio a little bit, I've considered upgrading the front chainring to a 56 tooth or even a 58 tooth gear. You've done a lot of work on your XP Lite, as well as tested a number of multi-geared bikes. Have you considered upgrading the gear ratio on your XP Lite, or are you satisfied with its current gear ratio?
@ChrisCrossed7 ай бұрын
There’s def ghost pedal at higher speeds on the Lite so the Xp 3’is better for pedaling. Having said that I ride the lite mainly in pas 3 anyway and it’s fine. Just depends on your use case.
