- Fix clown (ghost) pedaling on your #electricbike. Upgrade that freewheel and get gear ratios that have you pedaling meaningfully in higher pedal assist (PAS) levels. @elecruiser #ebikes freewheel change out is the BEST upgrade you can do to your bike. Bang for the buck, like a different bike. Stop in to our shop in #boca raton #florida and see.

Clown pedalling sucks . Thanks for the informative video ! .
YW
Your awesome, thanks for the instructions on a very needed upgrade on many more powerful e bikes.
I need to do this as well. Thank you for posting.
This worked out good on mine. Thanks for putting the info out there !
I replaced the 46t chainring with a 52t and replaced the 12-32 cassette with an 11-28. I can do meaningful pedaling even at 30mph. Most ebike riders couldn't care less about pedaling, don't want to pedal, have no idea why you'd want to pedal, lol.
I realised that pretty quickly. All the reviews for my battery (720wh) were stating a 40-60km range at 75-80kg.
I pulled 115km off a charge with throttle set to max the offer day. Only used throttle for roughly half the ride though.
@@lucideuphoria7092 Cheers!
I just put on a 11 - 28 t freewhel an 60t crankset an changed out my 20 × 4 fat tires to 20× 3 street tires an bike handles so much better increased my speed an better battery life
You have a link for the Freewheel 11-28, I know what your talking about, be nice to have some more resistance on the pedal at high speeds
Can you use these without the cassette as a hub motor ????? 😊😊
Most e-bikes hit a 100 RPM spinning range (ie. clown pedaling) on level 2 (out of 5) of pedal assist, - they are clearly not designed by people who actually ride bikes. My guess is the designers simply use the bicycle as a moped after level 3 pedal assist.
Can I do the replacement on the Bafang aluminum and magnesium alloy engine?
I run a 11-40t 10 speed screw on freewheel with a 48t front ring on my ebike. Good range of gears at fhe end of the rhe day.
Do you ride in the mountains? That's a low ratio.
@@elecruiser definitely. I lost my licence as have a job at a cafe atop the ranges behind my house and do a lot of mountainous state Forest camping. The motor is wound to a 28km max at 42v.
The first fire road is around 1.5km from my gate, but it gains 650m elevation in 4.1km so I need all the low gearing I can get. And then it goes back down another 320m and then back up 480m over another 6km which is the bane of my existence.
I don't think I'd be alive without my 40t.
these freewheels arent easy to locate. Any recommendations here in Canada?
What about on the spark cycle works bandit. It has a 52t up front.
52 is good. You'll enjoy the 11-28T Freewheel.
Is it better to change out the rear instead of the front? What would be the difference in performance and cost?
Depends on what you have now on rear and front and do you still need a pretty low gear. If it's a typical 14-28T Freewheel, change it to 11-28T. 48T chain ring is marginal. 50+ is better. If you need a low gear for steep inclines, stick with 48, or 50.
If you are using the Drifmaniacs 11T, have you have quality issues, broken or chipped teeth or inconsistent spacing?
Not to date. Thanks.
What’s that special tool called I need one for my bike and I don’t know the name or where to buy it
Freewheel tool.
What about changing the chain length ?
Most cases don't need a change in length when going from 14T to 11T.
Hi bro my bafang hub motor is 9 speed cassette and my bike is 7 speed cassette now I don't know what to do can you please tell me thanks
Sorry, confused. Can't be both. Please explain.
@@elecruiser I buy bafang hub motor 1000w on Amazon and the cassette is 9 speed and my fat bike is 7 speed cassette but I think I need to change the cassette of my bike and also my shifter I hope it'll work
What do you think about this to be honest I am also so confused 😁 and thank you so much for replying me ☺️
Ayazali, you likely need to remove the 9 and install a 7. Bring it to a bike shop, need a special tool.
Do you sell the freewheel removal tool for shimano, I have a Himiway Cruiser that i would like to do this too
I just called and spoke with them. He stated they actually do not sell the tool and only did a video to show others. Well that was confusing since he stated in the video that we can get the tool at elecruiser. I have a himiway cruiser also and wanted this tool because the other sockets won't fit over the thick speed sensor wire. I'm just going to take mine to the local shop here in california
Sorry, did not state we sell the tool in the video. We have it for shop use. Sorry for any confusion. Interested in timestamp causing the confusion if you want to. Thanks.
Sorry no.
What is the price range to have my free wheel changed if I purchased my own freewheel for Lextric XP?
Our rates are $100 per hour for mechanical work. Should be about 45 mins but can't say for sure without seeing your bike.
@@elecruiser thank you.
11x34 is a better freewheel ratio than the 11x28. The stock chain will still work even with a 48T chainring.
11-34T is for an 8 speed. 11-28T is 7 speed.
They make on for a 7 speed.
@@elecruiser No... I have a Himiway Cruiser and it is a 7 speed. I installed an 11x34 freewheel to replace the stock 14x28 freewheel. Check it out.
Sorry, don't understand why you need a 34, very low for an ebike, at least in Florida. Can see it for steep up and downs, but the bike that came with 14-28T is likely the wrong bike for that kind of riding. Anyway, sounds like you're happy, so, #milesofsmiles!
I didn’t comment about that, I simply said they do make them for a 7 speed you said they are for an 8 speed.
And seriously, all these e-bikes come with non-cleated, non-caged pedals. Exactly who spins with clipless pedals? No one.
Who's clown pedaling their ebike? The motors have a proper cassette already and you do not have to keep pedaling in order to keep the motor going, you only have to get it started. Seems like a pointless video to me.
Most people pedal their ebikes dude.
Hmmm. Interesting comment. Some companies have provided an effective freewheel, so for those you're ok. But, indeed you do have to keep pedaling or the PAS signal stops and so does the motor. In high PAS, a low ratio can have you spinning too fast.
@@elecruiser No... You actually don't. All it is sensing is the fact the motor is moving. Loads of people in my city have electric bikes and not one of those people are pedaling while riding, they're just hitting the throttle. How can you be so wrong?
@@lucideuphoria7092 Not constantly like the uploader is claiming. They only need to pedal up to 10kph then they can hit the throttle and go, they do not keep pedaling while hitting the throttle.
@@sylver369 The nice thing about these bikes is you have complete choice. Ride it as you describe, pedal only, pedal assist, throttle only, however you want. We have MANY riders who pedal out to max speed at Class 3. BTW, not sure what you mean by "sensing the fact that the motor is moving." That is incorrect. I think you meant sensing the fact that the pedals are rotating. That in conjunction with mechanical gears with the right gearing let's you pedal meaningfully up to max speed. Check our th-cam.com/video/6O5MYyhOPSI/w-d-xo.html video. 43mph pedaling with a max PAS. Thanks for the comments.
I have the 11-28 on my lectric 3.0 but still clown pedaling at higher speeds. What would be the next option up? Also, is changing the teeth count on the front right pedal a thing?
Increase the front sprocket to 52 tooth. Also suggest getting an 11-34 tooth freewheel that not only helps with ghost peddling but helps climbs hills better with the 52 tooth front crank sprocket.
At what speed do you start clown pedaling with the 11-28?
