Hope you are doing well. I miss you guys! You are the first channel featuring RV life that I found and followed. Take care.

[@wingsovermikey]

I purchased the XP 1.0 after you reviewed them on your channel and now have over 2000 miles on it, and I only had to change the brake pads once around the 1900-mile mark. It still runs great, and I need to sell it to accommodate my newly purchased XPremium. Thank you for the tour of the warehouse and for getting an answer to the question that all of us had been asking.

[@LyfUninterrupted]

WOW! That’s awesome to hear!

[@segawalker3302]

I was on the fence w all the cafe styles vs Lectric but this video changed my mind... I'm happy to support...every attribute is what I need for my commute

[@Inventodd2748]

So I bought and received my xp 2.0 step through back in August 2021. Could not talk my wife into buying one. She wanted to look at other brands first. Now my wife and my daughter both bought lectric ebikes. Lectric's Customer service is what did it for my wife. Hands down, You can't beat lectric in that category. This video was the best and most informative on lectric's forward thinking. And answering the KEY question---:-)

[@thomastheys6681]

We have two of the original Lectric bikes travel with them in our RV and just love them now I want to experience the bikes with full suspension. Thomyt

[@LyfUninterrupted]

We really liked our 1.0's despite the lack of front suspension.

[@Debbie_T_FL]

Awesome interview on those eBikes! We have a RAD mini step-thru, but liking the upgrades to this bike!

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Great to hear!

[@Its-_-Me1]

I just got my XP 2.0 a month ago so far in love with it. Hopefully in the near future I’ll get the XPremium. The 2.0 is literally my car replacement since I’ve been riding the bike to work especially with these gas prices

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Excellent! Let us know what you think as time goes by.

[@sherriweber7105]

Awesome I I like these ebikes. I will definitely get one of these bikes soon. They look so awesome. I love the bike rack in the back. And the handle bars. It reminds me of my old 12 speed I had. But better. Thank you again for this video on these bikes. Can’t wait until I get one.

[@susanhafner6906]

Thank you so very much for this this is great as I’ve been thinking about getting one we are selling our 2 story log cabin house and our 5 acres off grid in Alaska We are retired from dogsledding and we are retired from working so now it’s time for R&R thanks for all your great advice😊

They definitely knock the customer service out of the park. I ordered our bikes a few days ago; and they are here today! 🤩

wow great video! Been debating which brand to buy.. Levi just sold me! Now xp 2.0 or lite.. leaning towards lite!

[@6431harry]

I was just complaining about the Lectric light and now they make an awesome bike! I just got my Juiced ebike. I ordered a Ripcurrent S which is a fantastic bike. But, I think I may have waited for the Premium. Great job and always look forward to your videos!

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Thanks!

[@spacetravler8461]

I have a XPremium. I have a XP3.0 as well. I love the XPremium but hate the frame flex which results in a "death wobble". The wobble is way worse when I have my 20 pound dog in the back. The wobble is less when I pull a trailer. I'm not trying to down talk the bike at all, I just wanted to point this out to you in case you didn't know. I have over 300 miles on my XPremium. It's definitely time for a new chain and cassette. I love the mid drive motor. The only complaint is the flex in the frame. I can't feel any flex in my 3.0. It is coming from the thin frame area where the motor mounts. I'm going to order a XPredition and remove the racks and just use the XPremium for a commuter.

[@campingalan]

Hello from Ouray CO!! Oh my...this may be the model that we take action on!! Finally....a folding bike with some mega performance! I visited these guys in Phoenix on one of my work trips for a test ride. This was when they only had their 1.0. I really enjoyed the time with their team! My resistance to the Lectric bike then was that, since we live in the Colorado mountains, we felt we really should get one of the bigger motor/battery models such as the eLuxe or Juiced. This Premium just may be the ticket! Yes....a bigger motor would be great. But, I'm really down for the bigger battery. Our travel trailer that we ordered in January 2021 arrived in December 2021. It was hit by a snowplow, while parked, in February and will be finished being repaired this week! These folding models would be great for the bed of our pick up!! (we have a topper on it). One of my criteria for an ebike is that we can ride from Ouray for 10 miles to Ridgway, which is about 1000 ft drop. And then return; which would be a 1000ft climb over the 10 miles. Safe travels!!

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Ouch! Sorry to hear about your RV. We're headed to your neck of the woods sometime around mid-June!

[@campingalan]

@@LyfUninterrupted Ok....very cool!! We have had a less than average snowfall this year, so I think a fair amount of the high country should be open (I am talking for hiking and off roading on the trails and national forest roads; the highways will totally be clear). I have your email from a couple of years ago when you were looking to pass through. I will send a message there.

Where do you store this overnight at a campground? We have had a bike stolen at a CG when they cut the thick chain off. Thanks

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Hi Doreen. We typically keep them locked up next to the coach. We use a very strong, almost theft proof, lock called a Foldylock Compact. In fact, a thief would need a grinder to cut the links apart. You can. Find the lock in our Amazon Store. amzn.to/3mAMCGv

[@kimvandertill8928]

I have a question about the Lectric Lite. Is pedaling it like being in first gear on the the multi-speed Lectrics, or easier like 2nd or third gear?

[@LyfUninterrupted]

It's more like peddling in 2nd or 3rd gear. The bike is pretty light, so it's easier to ride.

[@Flyextreme90713]

After purchasing the XP 2.0 for my wife to go along with the a different folding bike that I bought for myself, we really love the Lectric. I did have issue and do not understand why items in stock take almost two weeks to ship. This seems to be counter to my experience with every other purchase I have made of "any" kind. That is the only issue that is making me hesitate buying the XPreimium. I do have to say... Lectric's communication is excellent. Please just figure out how to improve the way you ship.

[@coreydeming1855]

Where did u get ur phone mount behind the screen like that I want something like that for the xpremium haven't found it

[@LyfUninterrupted]

We bought it at a bike shop on the east coast.

[@turbofan450]

Question is just thought of. Maybe you can ask the guys at Lectric. I'm a big believer in charging to 80% to prolong battery life. On my current ebike, I can do this easily. I can see the battery voltage and and I know how much my charger inputs per hour. So I just use a timer. Now, you can use this method on the XP 2.0 since you are able to see the voltage. But on the XPremium, how will this work since there are 2 batteries that may have 2 very different voltage levels? Isn't the screen only set up to display voltage for one battery? How can I know the voltage of each individual battery to then be able to charge by timer?

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Great question!

[@papag1961]

I just ordered the bike with front and rear baskets. My question is, will I be able to fold the bike with the baskets installed ?

[@ElmCreekSmith]

You won't be able to fully fold it without taking one of the baskets off

[@LyfUninterrupted]

No, you will not be able to fold the bike completely.

[@KevinCoop1]

I know that you have a 6.8L V10 and wanted to let you know of something that you might be interested in. There is a company named 5 Star Tunes that writes and sells tunes for RV’s. I had one that was installed in a used 2014 Thor we bought and paid for it to be left in the RV. It ran very well. We traded it for a 2018 Jayco Alante with the 6.8. I drove it for 3000 miles to know how it ran and fuel mileage. It was weak on hills and not able to get up to highway speed on entrance ramps. It got from 6.5 to one time at 7.2MPG. I just installed the tune and could tell a difference in the first 50 feet. We took a 140 mile trip on a highway we’ve traveled several times. I drove from 65 to 73 mph and once up to 80 to check if the 75 mph limiter was gone. On the first ramp I got 50 mph before and 63 mph afterward. It has way more power and does not need to shift down as much as before. The fuel mileage went up from 7.5 to 8.4 mpg. 12.4% increase. It looks like the price is now $545.00. If you are interested and can’t find them, let me know. Best wishes, Kevin

[@KevinCoop1]

I told Endless RVing about it a few months ago. They just got one and did a short video yesterday. See what they say.

[@jrbast]

Any way to get height folded under 30” for xpremium?

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Not sure, but removing the seat and seat post during storage might accomplish that.

[@rjpg]

I like the two batteries but not proprietary batteries (the front one). That's where they get you because the can over charge because there is only one company to make replacements.

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Please let us know of a company that sells universal batteries that work with every ebike brand and model out there.

[@frankduzok]

I just pre-ordered our 1st e-bikes . Are the bikes made and assembled in the USA?

[@LyfUninterrupted]

Hi Frank. They are not made or built in the US. In fact, we don't know of any eBike brand that is.

[@kevinnashskitchen3517]

Hope that one day some other solution can be found for this center stand issue. Many people don't like that steel stand idea. Maybe something that is retractable? Flip up a couple inches and lock up or down ? I'm waiting to see in forums how many people have bashed that stand on something.

[@LyfUninterrupted]

The stand really isn’t a problem at all.

No, it doesn't have a USB port. We have ridden our bikes in rain with no issues.

[@WanderWiseley]

Nice job. Just ordered 2 bikes the other day and they’re showing up tomorrow. That’s unheard of in the ebike industry. Super73 & Ariel can learn from Lectric!

[@paulwoodman4557]

I've ridden pedal bike and for thousands of miles several hundred mile plus days and everybody work knows this and but my boss asked me a couple years ago. If I knew anything about electric bikes he wanted fat tire ebike. Honestly, I did not know anything about electric bikes. But I did look up several and thought that the lectric was the most efficient, Economical, had the features he liked and told him to check it out. So he bought the 1.0 fat tire 4-in. And just recently I've been interested in a bike so I'm looking at electric. I haven't told him yet. I know he will be jealous when he sees that I'm getting the 2.0. because he has told me that what he really wanted was some front suspension besides the 4-in tire. So yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll be selling two or three of these after everyone at work sees the long range 2.0.

[@bergmanst]

Belt drive at somepoint?

[@LyfUninterrupted]

👍 Or internal shaft drive?

[@ActivityPhoto]

If they switch to belt drive they will have to either sell it a single speed and loose all the advantages of the mid drive motor. They could offer with internal geared hub but that would drive the price north $2500 and that is not their business model. What I found really strange is the CEO covered all the small changes before even mentioning the mid drive motor which is the big selling point.
