The Lectric eBikes Lectric XP is one of the most affordable folding fat tire electric bikes from a company with dedicated customer support and a solid one year warranty, offers twist throttle and adjustable top speed, up to 28mph, includes fenders, rear rack, and integrated lights. Available in two colors, gloss black or white, with matching fenders and nice looking decals, one size fits most thanks to the long adjustable seat post and telescoping height stem, full length crank arms pedal naturally, impressive max weight of 330lbs. Seven speed drivetrain provides comfortable pedal speeds, the fat four inch wide tires offer stability and comfort, ergonomic grips reduce numbness, the thick padded saddle has rubber bumpers to take the edge off, and Lectric eBikes sells an optional suspension seat post, excellent pedal choice here too. No suspension fork here, the steel fork, fenders, rear rack, and non-sealed headset can rust over time, default cadence sensor settings are a bit slow but can be adjusted, the lights are more "be seen" vs. "illuminate your path" and there's no USB charging port on the display.

@jamesbradford8574 4 года назад

I've had this bike since August. I got mine in white, with the panniers. I'm sitting at a Starbucks right now, and it's locked up outside (use 2 big u-locks plus a cable around the rear tire because that's where the motor is located!!). I just hit 156 mile on my way over here, and I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars. It's capable, affordable, foldable, lets me leave my car at home, and it's also something I didn't fully anticipate until I started riding -- it's fun. I'm not a shill, just a satisfied customer. Keep up the good work, Lectric! About locking in the city, for anybody who is considering purchasing this bike, and lives in the city: always use two heavy-duty u-locks plus a cable in through the tires. It's not convenient, but it's really the only way to deter somebody with a cordless angle-grinder from getting away with the bike. I also installed a really cool motion alarm I got from Amazon for less than $20 -- 110 decibels. So, if somebody really wants my bike, they can try cutting through all of the locks while getting their eardrums pierced, all while hoping nobody stops them! The only reason I'm not giving it 5 out of 5 stars is a matter of principle. Just how good does something need to be before we can say it's perfect? I dunno... It would probably need a couple of attachments we can't talk about in polite society. :-/

@ElectricBikeReview 4 года назад

Thanks for the great update here, James! Hope the bike brings you many more fun experiences, I feel you on the 4.5 out of 5, that's still a great score :)

I've had this bike since july of 19. Have put on close to 800 miles on the speedometer. This is my 3rd electric bike and it is my favorite. Two small things I have noticed with this bike. The first is that the mileage is not accurate. I wear a Garmin while riding and the Garmin reads 20% longer distances. My 800 hundred miles means I've actually gone 1000 miles. The 2nd is that I've started to get a little bit of a battery rattle when I am off road. A little bit of Gorilla Tape fix that. So far I have spent 1300 for my first electric, 2800 my second an 899 for this one, and by far the Lectric ex is the most fun. If they come out with one with front suspension forks I will buy it. Great bike for the money.

I ordered one of these bikes in June and agreed to having it shipped out in July from this company and I am so disappointed to see this video now. This young man is a liar. They do NOT ship ANYTHING from their (probably rented for this video or borrowed from a friend) warehouse in Phoenix. The fact is that the bike I ordered IN JUNE still hasn't been shipped and July is over in 2 more days. I hope they do not breach the contract they have created with the offer to ship in a specific month because I may sue them for breach of contract. I don't so much mind that the bike is made in and shipped from "overseas" (or China) as Bri explained to me on the phone, but the fact that this young man is lying in a video and misleading people to believe that the Bikes are made and shipped from a location here in the USA bothers me. If this is a father and son team, the father should be ashamed of himself for teaching his son to blatantly lie to people about where the bike is made and shipped from. These people never even TOUCH the bikes that we order!!! They simply take your order AND YOUR MONEY and then send a small portion of your payment to the phantom company in China who then proceeds to make your bike and ship it to Fed-Ex in America, who then ships it to you (and me, but not yet). The whole thing is a scam, but I'm willing to overlook being scammed if they send me my bike within the time frame that they promised in the contract, but if they do not, I may take my "fight" to the next level because I feel that these folks may need to learn a lesson about integrity and honesty.

Thanks for this review, Court. I watched your bike reviews earlier this year and saw this bike on u tube for about 899.00 last July so I knew basically what to look for. Got mine in September and it was perfect right out of the box. New locking bar ends and a Brooks Flyer saddle and over 200 miles later, I’m very happy with my purchase. I have a Road bike and a 1964 Hercules but they have to take a backseat compared to myXP.

had my lectric for over a year now. i put kevlar liners in back tire and i still got flat with it. but its nyc streets with broken glass all over the place and pieces of sharp metal since its an industrial area i bike through. i use it year round and leave it outside while working even in the rain and snow. have had no issue with water leaking in or messing it up. i weigh around 215 and am 5feet11inches. no issues at all with height or weight on bike. but yea i dont get 25 miles of throttle only. i usually do just under 12 and recharge at throttle only after that the battery gets weak and it has totally drained once. but other day i did a just over 12 mile straight ride and it made it with some charge to spare throttle only with some slight inclines and declines. i do love the bike and definitely a great deal at the 900 i got it for. If i had to do it again i would not go with fat tires. they do make the profile fatter when folded and i had tough time with the weight and thickness getting it into a friends empty truck flat wise.

I've been using the XP since October and have over 250 miles on it. Only changes I've done is to put on a better seat and a trapezoid suspension seat post. I ride on paved roads, graded dirt roads, rocky BLM roads and it handles all very well. It is an excellent ebike and you can't beat the cost. Dealing with Lectric has been excellent and they always responded to my questions within a day. Is it perfect? No. Is it worth buying? Yes. I carry it in my Class B RV and use it to scout camping locations and just plain fun riding. BTW, I am a former mountain biker that had a Yeti 6.5 full suspension carbon fibre/aluminum frame with 9" hydraulic brakes … no regrets selling the Yeti and replacing it with the XP! Cheers, Steve

@sunnybluesky440 4 года назад

Great review! I have thoroughly enjoyed my bike for the last few weeks. No issues at all. When I was testing out climbing a steep road yesterday, I lost all power suddenly. After getting it home, I charged it up but it will not come on. I called the guys at Lectric and told them what the bike is doing. Since it was close to closing time on Friday the 13th, they said they would get back to me on Monday December 16th and help get this figured out. So, I will report back on the customer service aspect of this company. I purchased one Lectric XP bike as a tester in our search to see what we want to use as our e-bikes for full time traveling in our class B RV. We are considering multiple brands but the Lectric XP was the first bike we purchased to test out a folding design. We definitely need something reliable and durable. I would highly recommend that anyone who purchases one of these to immediately put in tire sealant such as Slime. Even though the tires have some puncture armor sleeves inside, they still do not adequately protect against punctures from goat heads and such. I put 8 oz. in each tire and ever since, have not had a single problem. Before that, the goat heads were a constant threat. As I said, I will report back on the current issue of my Lectric XP woes and also on our decision on using the Lectric bike as our full time RV travel choice.

@ElectricBikeReview 4 года назад

Good tip on the Slime! Thanks for offering to share your experience as it unfolds. Hope the bike startup issue is solved and that you get some more fun rides in without issue ;)

@Stormsteed 4 года назад

What happened with this?

@sunnybluesky440 4 года назад

Stormsteed ahh, glad you asked. The bike is non functional (it’s basically dead) and I will be driving it back to Lectric in Phoenix to have it repaired under warranty. They did mail me a box to put it in and send it back but I decided I didn’t want to go through the hassle of packaging it all up and such. I am going to be in the Phoenix area in the next week or so and will drop it off. They did tell me to expect a 5-10 day repair period and if they couldn’t fix it by then, they would send a new bike. So far, I am happy with the customer service of the guys at Lectric. We still have a ways to go to get it fully resolved and I will certainly report back on that in the next 2-3 weeks. Here’s hoping for a good ending. In the mean time, I have purchased a second e-bike (Ride 1Up) and I am doing a comparison of the two to see which one I like better, overall. As always, there are pluses and minuses for each one. It will be interesting to see which one comes out on top.

@attilabodi826 4 года назад

one thing that always gets left out of reviews of e-bikes is street intersections/safety. there a number of different setups. In general, these bikes are very heavy compared to regular bikes. at times the rear wheel has chargeback - makes it hard to peddle or push the bike if you don't have the electric motor turned on, so it feels like your pushing a 90lb bike. w a hand initiated throttle some bikes accelerate way too hard which can throw you into traffic and so on.

I used to use a Cannondale mountain bike to commute to work sometimes but a tricky knee and now a hip put an end to that. That was a few years ago and I really missed using my bike to commute. Recently I seriously started to consider a ebike because of all the positive reviews. I decided I wanted a folding bike so that when I go on roadtrips, I can bring my bike inside the back of my SUV. Heard about this bike from RV'ers reviews a few months ago and decided to give it a try. Been riding it everyday to work and I love it. The bike is zippy and is fun to ride. No issues so far in the last 500 miles and look forward to many more years of riding.

The only minor things i had to do was adjust the brakes and cables, upgrade the seat post to a suspension seat because the pot holes in NYC were rattling my spine too much, and getting a strobing light because sometimes I have to ride home at night from work and I want the cars on the road to see me from far off.

Awesome review as always, most of the weak points of the bike, I have changed out, I got new handlebars, grips, painted the fenders with plasti-dip. I am still looking into changing or adding a headlight. I tried to use it at night and it is not wide spread and doesn't cast the light far enough to miss things like pot holes in the road. The key position is a bad location, I would have liked a key switch on the handlebars. Overall I don't think you could build one for this price. If you compare this to the Rattan Fat Bear, it has most of the upgrades that people point out, but it is $1.5k so you really do get what you pay for. Thanks for the Video.

Just received mine today and the rear rack light is rubbing against the rear fender. There is no bell now. Guess Lectric is cutting down standard items on the bike. I was really excited to get this bike after ordering it 3 weeks ago but now I have to contact customer service to see what they’re going to do to the fix the rear rack rubbing against the fender issue. I just called CS and they answered the phone quick. All they ask for is to email them the pictures of the damaged parts and they will send the replacement parts. Quick and easy. Took it out to test ride and found the disk on the front wheel is probably bent because it’s giving a noise like in Robby’s black bike in this video. Guess I’ll have to ask CS how to fix this. My first impression of this ebike is that it is easily damage during shipping causing customers to call CS to try and remedy the issues. CS replied back with a video to Park tool on how to adjust the calipers. I would say if you want to save money, buy this bike else get a Rad or Aventon Sinch.

@maxminor496 3 года назад

I specifically chose to buy a Lectric (original version) because for my riding, I do not need the suspension front fork which only adds extra weight for me. Also, I always have to carry my bike briefly on each trip, which means minimizing unnecessary weight is important. Most people do not study their needs enough before buying a specific bike, but I know exactly what I need after years of experience. I just hope my bike is delivered before Summer because waiting over two months for delivery is not good at all.

Internal battery here, vs external battery. 5 levels of boost here vs 9 levels. 7 physical gears here vs 6. This bike's display is slightly more rudimentary vs the GreenBike's that offers power consumption graphing. GB comes with suspension front fork, none here. Gb comes with turn signals. I wish the GB had the bell, but it does have a beeping electric horn. Anyhow, a nice alternative for about $60 less than the GB1Fat Tire.

@howardfowler2255 4 года назад

This bike looks like the best choice for its price. It's a hard act to follow but my concern is that a few years down the road those basic level components will need replacing/ upgrading and then there goes the value price of this bike out the window. OTOH ,It's nice to see Shimano,Tektro,and LG parts residing on this. I am still trying to figure out if this bike is 59+ lbs. or 62 or 63 lbs.total wght. And can the suspension seat post sold by Lectric add enough extra comfort to the ride to make it tolerable on extended trips? And can this bike be trollied around ok when folded up and both halves tied together? Lifting 60 lbs. of e bike is for younger backs than mine. I'd jump like a frog if Lectric could get that weight down about 5- 8 lbs.worth( see the Spark Bolt at 55 lbs for comparison). Another expert review from Court!Can't you just feel the love and fun he pours into his craft!

@ElectricBikeReview 4 года назад

Hi Howard, I weighed it with my scale at 62.2lbs with the fenders, rack, and battery as shown during the ride tests here. Yes, it can be walked when folded, but it's not the most perfect or comfortable setup like some lighter bikes with standard tires. The suspension seat post looked pretty basic. I personally would upgrade to one with a suspension fork and at least SR Suntour NCX suspension post if I was riding a lot or planned on encountering rough streets or dirt paths. Thanks for the props on this review!

I bought my Lectric XP in January 2020 to get rid of excess weight. I ended up losing 77 pounds, and my legs are like tree trunks. I have 2 batteries and have travelled 65 miles round trip. I currently have 2400 miles on my ebike. Life is great... or, was great. Last week, at 2400 miles, the bike broke down electronically. Left me stranded, twice. Had to walk home several miles. Lectric company says it’s still under warranty, but will take a long time to get the part needed to fix. Coming from China and from I got from the tech, this prob is happening to thousands of Lectric bikes. So, I stop riding for how long? A month, maybe2 or 3.... I don’t think so. I am going to buy another bike from another brand cuz this one is no longer reliable. It’s just taking up space in my bike barn. The unfortunate part is I just finished building my solar bike barn so my bike is propelled by sun and keto... I hope Lectric realizes that my warranty is on pause until it is fixed. They can’t take a month or several months and expect the warranty to keep running. So, if u want this bike, I totally recommend it. Just have secondary transportation and Uber on stand by. P.s. no public transportation where I live. ur on ur own here

Great question... it would definitely be easier to reach and use on the top of the frame, but if the key was required to be left in, that could present a dangerous sharp protrusion in a pretty vulnerable spot ;) and I think they usually put key cores on the side or bottom so dust and water doesn't actively sit in there and leak in over time!

You would probably wait another year if you order from this scam company. I ordered one of these bikes in June and agreed to having it shipped out in July from this company and I am so disappointed to see this video now. This young man is a liar. They do NOT ship ANYTHING from their (probably rented for this video or borrowed from a friend) warehouse in Phoenix. The fact is that the bike I ordered IN JUNE still hasn't been shipped and July is over in 2 more days. I hope they do not breach the contract they have created with the offer to ship in a specific month because I may sue them for breach of contract. I don't so much mind that the bike is made in and shipped from "overseas" (or China) as Bri explained to me on the phone, but the fact that this young man is lying in a video and misleading people to believe that the Bikes are made and shipped from a location here in the USA bothers me. If this is a father and son team, the father should be ashamed of himself for teaching his son to blatantly lie to people about where the bike is made and shipped from. These people never even TOUCH the bikes that we order!!! They simply take your order AND YOUR MONEY and then send a small portion of your payment to the phantom company in China who then proceeds to make your bike and ship it to Fed-Ex in America, who then ships it to you (and me, but not yet). The whole thing is a scam, but I'm willing to overlook being scammed if they send me my bike within the time frame that they promised in the contract, but if they do not, I may take my "fight" to the next level because I feel that these folks may need to learn a lesson about integrity and honesty.
