Yeah, I did a couple videos that day forgot the angle of the camera was different and should have been down more I would’ve redone the video but I needed something to put out for Wednesday. I looked at my butt crack and said who’s gonna see that 😀
I’m trying to stay consistent so I can get a sponsor like you. Awesome job I know you’ve been at this a long time. Can’t think of a guy that deserves it better.
I know I totally failed on the lower part I have since ordered a new camera that can do a lower video. I know that doesn’t help you, but let me know what you need to know.
I know I did a couple of videos that day I should’ve repositioned the lower camera. I apologize if you have any questions, let me know and I’ll try to answer them or even put together a short video.
Yeah, I have to make a new one on bleeding the brakes. Nothing down below was seen. I forgot about putting a camera down there plus I really didn’t have a camera at the time and the whole green screening get screwed up when you head down on the floor, but I’ve got it all figured out now. We learn as we go. Every video is a learning experience for me. I’m sure it is for you also.
Purchased my Lectric XPeak mid-June. Somehow I logged nearly 1200 miles and the rear brake was dead! Took the Peak in for my first free tune-up. Brakes work great now...I am not a bike gear-head...your video (and others) gives me the confidence to try this myself. in the future. I did not even know mineral oil was used with these brake systems!!!! I have more than 1 hex screws on the brakes...how tell which one is the reservoir??? Sounds silly..but this is all new to me!!! Thx
Nice kit, i have to get me one. If you have a link, please provide it. Not sure if I mentioned. But I picked up some accessories from LECTRIC that were specific for the expedition. The two rear seat cushions, and the tubular seat frame. They all fit perfectly on my AIPAS A6. I'd post the pictures, but of course TH-cam doesn't allow it. I did post it on Facebook on the 50 and over e-bike group, as well as one of the LEC TRIC group, for people with the AIPAS.
I thought of putting a 5000w motor on my XPedition by running the two batteries in series giving me 96 volts. When you get into those big motors you’ve gotta go with bigger voltage. I was working with a Chinese company that had a motor that could be run at the 96 V. With the right controller, they said, I could get at least 45 mph out of it on throttle. $1200 for the kit. Which I didn’t have problem with, but then I said I love the way the thing rides so why ruin the bike. Plus, it’s more money out of my pocket to make a video that 100 people are gonna watch 😂
@@GarysE-BikeAdventuresha ha ha....maybe...I am thinking about doing it myself....but it would be hard for me...knowledge and tool wise....but for you....easy.......
I’m also going to make a new video on the brake bleeding I have added a new camera to do lower visibility in the videos I had a lot of people asking about what was going on at the caliper
Nice job Gary! Most people don’t know how to bleed brakes. Good informative instructional video. Keep those service how to videos coming.
Gary is there any maintenance on coaster brakes gregg
Thanks Gary. Yeah im new to the ebike world so trying to learn everything i can with watching TH-cam channels such as yours. Thanks for the reply back
If you ever have a question, hit me up, my email is in my description like I said, I’ll make a video
Great demo! Thanks!😎🚲👍
Thanks Gary. You make it look easy 😀
I wish I had more time to put it out. I needed something for today. The lower camera angles sucked.
Butt crack at 8:25! LOL

@@GarysE-BikeAdventures you do a good job! Someone told me when I started to "hang in there" so there you go.
@@GarysE-BikeAdventures nobody cares. I just thought I would have some fun
@@Rip1Outdoors oh, I know that. So now I have to ask Rip1Outdoors? Do they call you rRp instead of Richard? Or do you literally mean rip one outdoors?
Needed a closer view of some of the procedures. Will help me with my Xpremium.
I bet you’re wondering about the backlight 😁
Sorry, I thought this was the one about the directionals
I know I totally failed on the lower part I have since ordered a new camera that can do a lower video. I know that doesn’t help you, but let me know what you need to know.
When I get my new camera, I probably will do a revised video which will be in about a week or so
Great info only wish your video showed what you were doing by the breaks

Excellent Job Gary! Very helpful for new e-bike users!

It sure is. I learn more with every ride and video.@@GarysE-BikeAdventures
It would have been nice to see what you actually you were doing...
Great instructional video....thank you! Happy Holidays....🤔😁🎄🎅
Would of been nice if you could have had the camera view of the caliper instead of you so we can see what screw is being removed on the caliper.

@@GarysE-BikeAdventures Thank you, I will be sure to use your affiliate link.
Idea...how about taking a Scrambler style bike with a small motor and making it fast with a new 5000 or bigger hub motor...?
You sponsoring it I’d love to do it 😀

Is there an adjustment in the caliper to bring the brake pad closer in to the rotor?
Can you snap a photo of it and email it to me? My email is in my info
I’m also going to make a new video on the brake bleeding I have added a new camera to do lower visibility in the videos I had a lot of people asking about what was going on at the caliper
Gary you are going to get fluid all over that pretty hardwood floor! LOL
It’s indoor outdoor green carpeting under the green screen affect have a hardwood floor
@@GarysE-BikeAdventures yeh it does look real.
None of the fittings in that kit fit the xpeak
Would have been nice to see the lower cylinder operation. Your video cut it off.
@@jeffprime310 I know I’m sorry I thought I had a lower camera running and it was not running I intend on doing another video at some point
LOL " I bought this on Amazon (Sigh) like everything else I buy".
