    Went out yesterday to see what I could get out of my XP with full battery. Went 21 miles went up 12 hills all with full throttle no peddling.When I got home I had 3 bars left on battery. It took 6hrs. to fully charge the battery again. Lets hear from other XP owners to see what their top mileage is on full throttle. This is a great bike. Was a blast riding in the country in spring time.

    Jeremiah,
    Couple things for you. I do appreciate all of your videos regarding the ale trip bike as I patiently await my delivery as I ordered it 3 1/2 weeks ago. Really looking forward to trying it out the first time. Secondly as I see you riding your bike it looks as though you need your seat set up higher. As a rider for well over 40 years I would recommend that you have a slight bend in your knee as it would be better for your knees in the long run especially if you ride a lot. You can go to any good (participating) bike shop and get fitted properly. I am sure you will feel a difference especially on those longer rides. And lastly, you NEED to wear a helmet!! Whether on a road, parking lot or bike trail you NEVER know what or when something can happen. Especially when riding with one hand holding a selfie stick for goodness sakes! Two years ago I was riding in a dedicated bike lane on my way home from a ride and made it to within 4 blocks from my house when I was struck by a hit and run driver leaving me for dead in the road. I ended up with a severe concussion to go along with my brain bleed that needed surgery to repair known as a craniotomy! This was followed by blood clots that also almost killed me. You need to wear a helmet dude!

    I got mine because of all the rolling hills in my area.. It does well, expect to slow down to about 11mph on very steep hills, pedaling does help. Best to plan your ride with some hills then some down or flat to cool off the battery and motor between hills. I don't think I'd want to go up a steep hill for miles, will overheat and battery will be stressed.

But, in the other direction, it is a 1000ft drop over 10 miles to the next town. I would hope we could do that round trip with this kind of bike.

    You have a wonderful manner about you and you’re really good at teaching and demonstrating. I found you by typing in a search to find out how the bike does on hills. I’m afraid my driveway and logging road are going to be much too steep and I’m going to wind up having to walk the bike about 4/10 of a mile to get up on my hilltop. The paved road below my hill is fairly level with some gentle inclines and I think I’ll do fine. I just got my bike last week and can’t wait to take it out for some spins. Thanks for the tip on using an iPhone to clock the actual odometer readings. Great video. Thank you so much, Jeremiah. I have liked, subscribed and even hit the bell. And I hardly ever hit the bell. ;-)

      With an electric bike it's just too much work pedaling like that to get up a hill, I don't want to ride an e-bike that you got to be out of breath and exhausted, for me the whole idea of electric bike is to let the motor do the work, if I'm going to put that much work into pedaling like that I'll stick to a regular bicycle, just my opinion but good video

    Thanks for the great review. I see that you had the bike for about 5 months, have you had any interaction with the company? I am also looking at the Ecotric and there are too many negative reviews on Amazon and most are crap CS from Ecotric. At this time the Ecotric is $770 and the Lectric XP is $900. I've learned a long time ago that price is zip if the company doesn't solve problems/questions. Thanks again. What research did you do to make this purchase?

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Before I purchased my bike I watched a ton of TH-cam videos. I researched every bike comparable in price online and read all the reviews and decided on the Lectric Xp because it gives you more bang for your buck.
      I believe that model of the ecotric that you are looking at for 770 is only 36 V and the 48 V model is around $960 and also does not come with a rear rack lights or digital display.
      I have had multiple interaction with lectric and they have been great every time. They sent me a new rack because mine was damaged in shipping and sent me some touch up paint for a few nicks and has always responded to any question I have ever had quickly. They are a great company to deal with in my opinion.

    I like your videos on the Lectric XP. Thanks for posting them! I am interested in getting one as it might be good for some exercise. I'm 65 and need to get out more. I have had motorcycles and mopeds over the years and loved those. The XP might be able to allow me to start off "easy" and still be able to go someplace, AND return! The motor assist could help on the trip back, and the hills, especially.
    Couple of questions: This is an "assist" and I get it that depending upon the setting (PAS 0-5) the assistance is "nothing" to probably "mostly." So, I guess you start pedaling manually and the motor cuts in? Where's the throttle during all this? Or, do you (or can you) just start from a dead-stop, hit the throttle and it takes off like a motorcycle would? I am a bit lost as to how this differs from the way a motorcycle works, and how/when to use the throttle. Can you explain just how you are supposed to control this bike? Thanks!

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      So basically your assist levels are zero through five. When In zero it pedals like a normal bike , PAS one will get you up to about 8 mph or so, PAS 2 I believe is around 12 mph, so on and so forth. No matter what PS level you are on except for zero you can use the throttle just like a Motorcycle and it will take you up to 20 mph no matter what assist level you are in No matter if you’re pedaling or not and it is a twist throttle on the right grip. I hope this helps.

    • @cggage
      @cggage 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@JeremiahMcintosh Thanks! That does help a great deal. So, if you didn't want to pedal at all, you could just use the throttle grip like a motorcycle and off you'd go. Good to know.
      Also, I know it has Shimano Derailleur gears on it. I get how all that works if you are pedaling. I had my share of regular bicycles. Do these gears matter at all if you are 100% throttle? I'm guessing not.
      Thanks, again!

    • @scrippslarry
      @scrippslarry 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Charles Gage The throttle works independent from the gears. The motor is in the rear hub, so it turns regardless of what gear you are in. When you pedal you are reducing the amount of effort the motor must expend.

    • @cggage
      @cggage 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@scrippslarry That makes sense! Thanks. I was curious if the gearing had anything to do with the motor's ability to climb hills, for example, as would be the case in a regular motorcycle (or car) where one would downshift to a lower gear. Thanks for the explanation!

    I'm considering getting an ebike. But I'm a bit concerned I'd be wasting my money. I'm 6'-3" and 270 pounds. I live in hilly Pittsburgh. I'm looking at the Lectric Xp 2.0 and the KBO Ranger. The Lectric has a 500 watt motor but 850 watt peak. The KBO has a 750 watt motor but only 900 peak. Mostly the riding around me is constantly going up and down. There one road near me that's goes maybe .7 miles at a pretty steep angle but, by choosing my route can avoid that long continuous climb. I would think in most situations the Lectric would be able to burst up the hills here. The Lectric costs almost half as much and the ability to fold makes it ideal for bringing it around with me. I would assume to climb up big continuous hills I'd want the KBO. However, in most up and down riding I'd think the Lectric with nearly as much peak power would be a good choice. I tried running some errands on my 18 speed mountain bike as a reference and found I had to walk it up a lot of hills. I used to live somewhere much flatter and feel like I can't go for a ride anymore.

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Yinzer! I know what you mean about hills, I live on one and would never be able to ride my non ebike down into town and make it back up. You
      Might want to consider a mid-drive bike if you are concerned about the hills and ride them a lot. If not I would probably go with at least a 750w nominal motor but you will probably still have to put some decent effort in up the hills.

    • @vasheed
      @vasheed 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@JeremiahMcintosh So figured I'd tell you what I finally decided to buy. I just ordered the KBO Ranger. If I lived in a flatter area I would have gone with the more budget friendly Lectric. The Ranger has a 750 watt nominal rating, 400 lbs overall capacity and a 120 lbs capable rear rack which means I could feasibly even have a passenger. Maybe? I also learned about torque which after doing a lot of research I think should be more prominently listed. The Lectric comes in at a respectable 60 nm, while the Ranger comes in at 80 nm, meaning it should climb better. KBO also has a 14 day return period while the Lectric will only do exchanges. That gave me a bit more confidence that if things just don't work out I'm not stuck with a bike that isn't right for me. Anyway thanks again for all your videos. I intend to buy one of the bike locks you showed as an accessory.

    I watched your video because I was researching to see how the Lectric XP 2.0 does in hilly terrain. Unfortunately you were unable to provide the slope. I found an app called SLOPE that is free and will do this. I used it to check out the slope on the roads I will be riding to see how this bike handles them. Test the app and let me know what you find. I am very interested in the results.

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s only going to give you so much torque regardless of the pas level and I generally try to keep the amp draw just under 20amps because it’s better for the motor and controller. In pas 5 you will be at the peak amp output the whole time no matter how hard you pedal on steep hills because it will want to go faster.

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is 31.8 but 31.6 will work all you have to do is tighten the thumb screw a little more before you close the latch.. You will not find an aftermarket 31.8 suspension post unless you get a 27.2 post and a 27.2 to 31.8 shim.
