[@kennypoppa1]

Just ordered the 2.0 then went looking for informative videos. Watched half a dozen and this was by far the most informative. Thanks, guys.

[@elijahgomez7937]

Just my luck. I bought the original XPedition three days ago and here comes bigger and better 2.0

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Bummer! It'll still be sweet, but yeah, bit of a bummer unless you can sell it unused to someone else for a slight deal. Make back most of the money and upgrade. The first edition is still a great bike for a great price, you wouldn't be ripping them off, especially if you sell it for $100 less than you bought it.

[@koureywheeler]

you didn't go wrong its still a great e bike fore sure I've had mine for about 5 months now i do want the break light and turn signals and front shocks for sure.

[@carrieroriskany3771]

Trust me, I'm of the same mindset. Mt Xpedition is in shipping and here they are with 2.0. SMH

Same here!

[@HoboGardenerBen]

You are my primary source of info on this bike so I will use your link when I buy it. So excited to feel the torque sensor! That range for that price! The cargo capacity! I'm salivating :) I'm probably gonna rewatch this video 20 times this winter until I buy it. Best expect a bunch of stoned hobo rants to show up in the comments lol :)

[@GregB-f1x]

Almost wish I hadn't bought the Xpedition 1.0 just this last summer. The new 2.0 has so many upgrades.

[@EbikeEscape]

How many miles do you have on it?

[@jragg9]

Me too. I have under 15 miles on mine, but I got it late in the summer with all the shipping delays.

[@colag1966]

SAME I just bought mine last summer Grrrrrrr😅

[@colag1966]

BUT... I WILL SAY, THE 1.0 IS VERY SWEET

[@derekmcleod7445]

@@EbikeEscapeI have like 180 miles on mine! Seriously considering selling it and buy in the 2.0.

[@floridamankyle5461]

I ordered the Single Battery XPed 2.0, it is everything I was hoping for in an Upgraded Cargo Bike, my father has a XP 2.0 and now I can ride with him and carry our Beach Chairs on the back, I am so excited for it to arrive.

[@emperado619]

Bike is dope! Same price and the upgradable batteries. Dayaaam son, they are killin it.

[@EbikeEscape]

Pretty much

[@chrisg7254]

Thanks for the great information and continued bike and cycling community support. The new bike looks great, and I really do like the Lectric Bike company. However, I wish there was a way for Canadians to get access to companies like Lectric. As of right now, there are only 2 large brands available up here.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Can you ship it to usa and come get it? I'd imagine you'd pay some sort of tax, but canada and usa are friends so it seems like you should be able to. Bit of a hassle, but this bike looks worth it.

[@Jptorcan]

I bought an Xpedition last spring. At the time, they were shipping to Canada for a flat rate of $200. They stopped shipping to Canada this summer, which is really unfortunate. I don’t understand why.

[@bgpouthome4269]

I just ordered the Xpedition 2.0 and can't wait to get it. I was considering this, the Radwagon 4 and the Integral Maven. Your review really drove it home that this is a great buy. I plan on trying to upgrade to 20x3 HEB all scapes, change the stem out to a non folding stem and bmx style bars from Rad and build some better running boards.

[@jessb.6493]

Hey, Fellas! Greatly appreciate your in-depth review here. My family was in the market for a decent cargo E-Bike, and you have convinced us this one is a winner! My wife and I have three girls, ages 10, 9, and 6. Our youngest is special needs, and this will allow us to have her enjoy family bike rides for years to come! I made sure to order the bike through YOUR link you posted here and hope that gives you some credit. It is strictly because of you we opted for the long range dual battery version for $1,999.00. Cannot beat the price for what you get and love that it comes with the upgrading charger. I just wanted you both to know how much you have helped my family arrive at this decision. Keep up the great work, Gents!

[@EbikeEscape]

Hey thanks, we appreciate that! We love seeing more families on cargo ebikes so hope you love it.

[@sequimskater420]

Have you recived your bike yet? I noticed you posted this comment 9 days agao. The wife and I ordered our bike 5 days agao and we're still waiting for them to "prepare shipping" so I'm trying to find a ball park estimate of when we might get our based on others who have ordered theirs in a similar time frame to ours lol

[@jessb.6493]

@@sequimskater420hey there! When I ordered ours, it had estimated that the bike would ship “week of 12/23.” Hope this helps! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and the family!

[@thegiantswordworkout]

We need a fat bike expedition with front panniers and water proof large carrying rear paniers for offroad expedition! Yeehaww!

[@EbikeEscape]

That would be sick, Tern has one but $$$

[@koureywheeler]

i got the xpedition about 5 months ago i love it but now i want this bike i got work to do now through out the winter to get this before next summer. i will absolutely get this 2.0

[@EbikeEscape]

I think it's worth the upgrade provided you can sell your old one for a reasonable price.

[@koureywheeler]

@ oh absolutely was thinking about that just not sure exactly where to do that

[@APrawks]

Very impressive and the raindrop blue looks nice!

[@robertschwiesow1593]

@@EbikeEscape qs can you use only one battery at a time if you order double battery example can i operate two battery bike with one battery turned off as a emergency back up to use only when needed? ???

[@kathrynradonich3982]

Im definitely excited have about 2500miles on my xpedition 1.0 but the suspension upgrades and built in signals are enough to make me want it.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

That chart you scrolled down around 16:12 was not useful. It was hard to move the video along at a rate to see it with how fast you scrolled and I have no idea what all that multiplier stuff means. Is there a better explanation somewhere? A better pdf and article? I'll go check their website.

[@Bigdog1787]

I personally don't like going over 32 fastest I've gone down a hill is 42 though with a trailer as the extra weight pushes ya, but I'm normally hulling 150 plus.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Me neither, I like cruising around 12-18mph the most, feeling the flow, the glorious physics of man\bike centaur union :)

[@wildbill23c]

Looks like a pretty nice bike. I had the Lectric XP Lite for a while, the kid that was living with me for a while (not really a kid he is 26yo) kind of tore it up, not sure what all he did to it, but it was having issues shutting off, or randomly the motor would stop working. I'm thinking of buying another Lectric just don't know which model need something with a bit more motor power I think the XP Lite would struggle on the hill by my house all the time. Not sure I'd need the Xpedition I don't really carry cargo, but I'd like to be able to pull a bike trailer though.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Fisheye distortion of your back facing handlebar camera makes your arms look crazy long and skinny but still strong, like a ghoul or something, lol

[@jeromewaites5364]

does it have cruise control feature?

[@triaxe-mmb]

Those kickstands look like they are the center stand by URSUS. If so, great choice!

[@triaxe-mmb]

Well, not sure if its a great choice anymore...saw a couple of reviews that were saying it is hard to engage and disengage - seems the weight balance on the stand is off a bit

[@DeadlyLicense]

Well apparently I messed up... I just ordered 2 of the standard cargo bikes that shipped today... then got an email that they introduced the 2.0 today... 😢

[@HoboGardenerBen]

Sorry, but that is pretty funny :)

[@DeadlyLicense]

@HoboGardenerBen thankfully it's only pre-order for shipments starting Jan 5th... but the newer bikes provide better safety for my wife being on dialysis lol soooo give n take I suppose 😆

[@HoboGardenerBen]

@@DeadlyLicense Yup :)

[@HoboGardenerBen]

@DeadlyLicense And ebikes are joyous and you'll have a lovely time with whichever ones you have, so everything is fine really :)

[@Hank039]

Just watched your Xtracycle Hopper then this review for the XPedition 2.0; which do you prefer if price were even?

[@markowsley4954]

Since it's a cargo bike and doesn't fold I don't need quick release pedals. Is the quick release part on the crank removable so a different pedal can be used?

[@chow-chihuang4903]

Yes.

[@Jen-CelticWarrior]

How well are the spokes going to hold up, versus a mag wheel?

[@Mr.And.Mrs.swanson1522]

Can you do a update when they come out with the new electric trike two I hope they come out with one before next summer❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@colag1966]

YES!!!! BUY

[@mtbr360]

Any thoughts on how this compares with the Radwagon 5 or Flyer Via Pro?

[@EbikeEscape]

Lots of similarities now with the Radwagon but it's much cheaper. Might consider doing a direct comparison.

[@arty4673]

How does this compare to the Aventon abound?

[@amosbatto3051]

This bike should ride similar to the Abound, but it can carry a lot more weight on the back rack, and it has options for a double battery, so its range is twice as long.

[@HoboGardenerBen]

More color options would be nice, don't like the white or the shade of blue they chose. Oh well, I can always do that myself after buying it. Yeah, that sounds fun, I'll make it mine that way. But still, more colors would be smart, I bet a lot of people will not be excited about that part. Maybe offer a way of paying extra for it to be done professionally at whatever color\pattern you want. Lots of sweet painting tech out there these days, could have a robot booth that does it like a sort of 3D printer. Some sort of interface that allows the user to create their own design that is then replicated perfectly by the machine would be awesome, a good way to build even more steam in the market. A lot of people pay big bucks just to decorate their online personas, they will certainly pay to customize their bike's design if available.

[@colag1966]

SOMETHING I DONT GET IS, I CAN GET UP TO 28MPH IN PEDAL ASST. 3 SO WHY DO I EVEN NEED PEDAL ASST 4 & 5 ?? CONFUSED

[@sequimskater420]

I understand your comment lol I ordered mine 5 days ago. The sooner it gets here the sooner I can update you guys on how it's going and try to awncer your question 😅😄😆

[@NM-nh8tu]

why 2.5 tires? why 17ah not 19ah? :(

[@Jack5822]

2.5 will give slightly better range/ride on streets, and most cargo bikes are made with street riding in mind. The larger battery will come with larger dimensions, is are they would have to extend the bike length more. Personally I would have preferred 3 inch tires, but I also wish it was the same length as the xpedition 1.0.... can't make everyone happy.

[@NM-nh8tu]

@Jack5822 question now is if the 3in tirewill fit tha 2.0 frame and fork. also, if they will sell a front suspension for the 1.0 as an upgrade. I love my 1.0, except for the lack of suspension

[@ABCdefGZER]

I’m pretty upset that i just bought the old version 10 days ago…….

[@colag1966]

I bought mine summer 2024 the 1.0 then one year later this came out.. a little upset about that

[@colag1966]

THEY DID HAVE PINK, BLUE & GREEN BUT THEY SOLD OUT QUICK!! HOPEFULLY THEY WILL GET THEM BACK I WILL B GETTING THAT PINK!! SO DONT WAIT IM TELLING U THE COLORS SELL OUT FAST!!!

[@jeromewaites5364]

[@chrislognshot]

can you ride the bike without key in it

[@chrislognshot]

link does not work it opens then close down. for some reason virus program does not like or something else

[@polok890]

That range is huge step forward. With dual batteries, it would be better just have the second battery just mounted and switch batteries when needed. The risk of battery rebalancing and fire isn't worth it. Your losing customers putting torque sensors on, because they suck

[@realeyesrealizereallies6828]

Don't understand why anyone would want a torque sensor on a bike made for hauling heavy gear, why would anyone want to peddle heavy gear harder, why not a cadence sensor so you could just ghost pedal to move the loaded bike..You could still get exercise with a cadence sensor, if that is what you are after..Or if your using the bike for delivery, you don't want to peddle as hard as possible all day long to make decent time..The torque sensor revolution has infected some bikes it shouldn't have..It's a cargo bike, for cargo...And personally, I think it's a bad call to have small children in the back of these bikes but, to each his own..I like a torque sensor only on commuters only, and even then, not always..

[@polok890]

Yah, praying Ride1up doesnt ruin their lineup with torque sensors

[@amosbatto3051]

With a torque sensor, the bike never goes when you don't want it to go. Several times I have lost control of a bike with a cadence sensor, and you never want that to happen with kids on the back. I only carry cargo and not kids, but I would prefer a torque sensor.

[@PazLeBon]

awful lol

[@HoboGardenerBen]

You gotta ride a Lectric bike, they're well made and haul ass. Solid feel, amazing price\value. I had the 2020 XP and it was great. Sold it because it had bad riding geometry for when the power ran out in my hilly area. This solves that by having so much range.

[@PazLeBon]

@@HoboGardenerBen i wouldnt be seen on any bike that looked like that, it genuinely amazed anyone would want one, itsa an ugly heavy granny shopper

[@pooljunki1]

thumb throttle is a no go for me

[@Bigdog1787]

I prefer it way more safe throttle I tend to accidentally move the bike when I go to open my gate getting off or back on the bike.

[@UnrivaledPiercer]

I plan to swap the thumb throttle for a slim twist throttle. As long as it's just a standard 3 wire, it should be easy enough to switch over.
