Great video! Superb photography giving me the best close look at this bike. Fantastic description of the upgrade to the 3.0. As with every Ebike video I see (hundreds) your seat is adjusted too low. Seat height on a bike is not adjusted for putting a flat foot down, if you do have a flat foot the seat is extremely low. A guide to your first adjustment is to place the pedal at the lowest position, then place the heal of your foot on the center of the pedal. Now when your foot is positioned correctly on the pedal with the ball of your foot centered over the pedal spindle your leg will have a slight bend in it at full pedal extension. This is the initial adjustment; you can now experiment with a plus or minus up to 20mm change in height for comfort over longer distances. With the seat properly adjusted when you stop while sitting on the seat you will be on your toes, and just barely able to hold yourself up...so...it is best when stopping to get off the seat. This seat adjustment prevents serious knee injuries that can make cycling in the future impossible. Also, to save the knees a wide variety of pedal cadence (RPM) is necessary to acquire the skill level to turn the cranks from 80 to 100 RPM smoothly without bouncing in the seat.

Nice review. I started my ebike experience a year and a half ago. What I did was purchase an ebike conversion kit and changed my 12 year old Schwinn to an ebike. Invested about $600 to do it. It really educated me on what's important on an ebike. I sold it due to the fact I wanted hydraulic and or mechanical disc brakes, rear tail light, etc. Today , I own a 26" step through at 17.5 AH battery and 1,000 watts at my home in Ohio. Just ordered a 20" fold-able ebike with a 16AH battery and 800 watt motor for my home in Florida. I have a lot of folks approach me on my ebike. The number one question. How fast does it go? That's all relative to rider weight. I'm 230lbs so I tell folks at a minimum a 750 watt motor and minimum 14AH battery. Like a swimming pool, bigger is better when it comes too battery and wattage.

@Zomby_Woof 7 месяцев назад
Rider weight or rider cross section will determine wh/mi, depending on whether it's low speed or high speed travel, and the distance. Weight is the primary factor if you're gunning it from one stop light to the next. But if you have an long uncontested trip at speed, it's going to be all about wind resistance and weight doesn't really factor into it. In most cases it doesn't matter as cross section and weight have a strong correlation.

I hated my 2.0 and had troubles from the start, they cheaped out too much. Glad they fixed all my complaints ( rotor size, fork travel, bigger motor, grip upgrade), while keeping the same price. I just got a lemon with my 2.0, and it was never really fixed, the brakes, rotors, and motor were all bad but not "bad enough" for lectric to fix, my local shop got some of it fixed, but the motor still sounds broken and screams after 15mph. Also one of my big complains it the pedals are a bit low to the ground on stepthrough so make sure to keep it up on the turn or you will hurt yourself and bike.

Yeah, I find the Lectric quality control to be spotty at best. I suppose that's when you get when you're pushing hard to get the lowest price on the market, but it's still disappointing. On my old XP 1.0, the battery level indicator didn't work -- it never displayed below 100%, even when the battery was empty -- and the left pedal fell off after only 41 miles. I decided to start over with a clean slate and ordered and received a 3.0 in December 2022. It arrived with a small area of flaked-off paint at the main hinge (a minor cosmetic issue) but also a rather snug fit for the battery (which turned out to be a much more serious issue). It seems that either the height or the width of the main frame tube is a little bit too small on my bike. Although I can get the battery in and out, it's a pretty snug fit. I can live with that, but my old battery from my 1.0 would not fit at all. I could barely push it up into the frame tube -- it was a _super_ tight fit -- and I couldn't get it back out again without using a screwdriver to pry it out. (The little pull handle on the battery would surely have snapped right off if I had tried to use it.) And the locking pin in the 1.0 battery didn't line up with the hole in the frame on the 3.0, so I couldn't turn the battery on. This was (and is) very frustrating because one of my reasons for buying the 3.0 was that I could use my old battery from the 1.0 as a backup. (They're supposed to be interchangeable.) But I *_can't,_* because *it won't fit.* 😡 I think it's a manufacturing irregularity with my 3.0 because the old battery from the 1.0 would fit into the old 1.0 just fine. I ended up giving the old bike (and battery) away, so now if I want a backup battery, I'm gonna have to cough up 300 bucks for a new one, and *_hope_* that it fits! 😠 Also, I can't get the 3.0 to go over 18 mph on throttle only. ☹

this goes out to all lectric owners. before you think you need new brake pads. dont change them, because you most likely dont need to. all you got to do is loosen up the main two bolts that hold the brakes to the chassy. then run the back brake pad all the way in. the chrome hex drive. then tighten up the two bolts again. and loosen up your brake cable at the brake caliper and pull that lever to get front brake pad close to rotor. it worked for me. i will need brakes sooner or later. and so will you.

This is really a great initial review of the 3.0! No doubt, it is a great machine. We just bought large E-Lux das boats. So, I am sure we will occasionally regret that! I have test rode the Lectrics at their plant in AZ. I really liked them! Since we live in the mountains of CO, we wanted the bigger battery and motor. And, my wife wanted a cruiser geometry due to her wrists. But…I really like this! Is it too opulent to have a second ebike?? Hehehe Thank you for your videos!

I have the 2.0, fun bike to ride. But my main complaint is that I want hydraulic brakes. After my lectric 1.0 died, I brought a Aventon Level commuter ebike, wonderful machine. I also got a discount for the Lectric xp 2.0 after I notified them about my 1.0 breaking so now I have 2 ebikes. I have to say that on paved roads, the Aventon is better and faster. But on rougher terrain, the Lectric xp 2.0 is better if not more fun to ride. I also upgraded the brakes to hydraulic (installed Tektro e350's, it stops on the dime and no maintenance needed except for changing worn brake pads).

I noticed you were able to reach 20 mph on throttle. I have 3 friends who have recently purchased a new XP 3.0, December 2022, none of their bikes will do the advertised 20 mph on throttle, 18 mph seems to be their max speed. Probably not a problem for most. But I do like to rub it in with them. I have an XP 2.0 the 3.0 will out accelerate me on throttle only but as soon as they stop accelerating I run away from them. Both still fun bikes. 😜

For the money, Lectric has once again hit it out of the park, so to speak. However, that being said, I would like to see them do a better job of integrating the wiring into the frame, going with at least a Shimano Altus derailleur and trigger shifters instead of the horrible SIS system. I prefer a thumb throttle for safety reasons and they could easily do that as well. I know what I am suggesting would up the price, but if they can do those things and bring it in under $1300, they will sell a ton.
@EbikeEscape
@EbikeEscape Год назад
Hi Robert, I too would like to see Altus. Wiring I'm not sure what more they can do outside of changing it to a different kind of battery. I imagine wanting to keep things cross-compatible is why they continued down this path.

The battery setup is almost the same. There appears to be a slight difference in the connection, but a 2.0 battery can fit into a 3.0 frame with minimal issue. The charger is still a 2amp charger. With the battery being in the frame, it is a touch more difficult to remove than an externally mounted battery. But the battery can be charged on the bike, so it doesn't need to be removed all the time.

So will the 3.0 drain the battery faster because it has more power? I have a 2.0 but might order a 3.0 just for the gearing. But I don't want to lose any range
@EbikeEscape
@EbikeEscape Год назад
We have not done our own range testing, yet. But Lectric claims the same range on the 3.0 as the 2.0. So I don't think you will notice that much of a drop.

About to pull the trigger on the 3.0 extended range. Great video and I will for sure use your affiliate link to their site. I like you honest opinion about the 3.0. I mean nothing bad. I can see how it responds to hills and how much effort it takes to tame them. I think the 3.0 step through extended range is what I need. I'm usually a black or gray guy but I think I may order white as a fresh start to spending more time outside and a lighter feel. =) I have a mid drive HP Velotechnik Scorpion with a Bafang 750w and a huge battery. Like $9000 if you buy one now, that God I only have 1/2 of that in mine. I need something I can just strap my lunch to the back and take off for work. Love the Lectric 3.0. Thanks again for the great in depth review.

I also have a recumbent with the Bafang 750W mid-drive, but I'm seriously considering getting the 3.0 ER for my 18 mile (one-way), pre-dawn commute to work. My Bacchetta is fun, but it's just not practical for commuting because there's no place to carry my work gear, plus a change of cloths. The 3.0 looks like just the thing for that purpose. - Great write up/review on the bike. It makes my decision much easier.

I have had a long-range Lectric 3.0 for 2 months, but I've only taken it out for a test ride for about 2 weeks b/c of the cold weather. Overall, I'm delighted with its performance except for the fact that the battery only lasted shorter than expected as the battery ran out after I made 29 miles combined only by using both throttle and PAS.What can I do to help the battery last longer to more than 40 miles per charge as mentioned by the manufacturer and Lectric company?Thanks

@jdgoesham5381
@jdgoesham5381 Год назад
I see the creator already mentioned temperature can affect battery performance but something to keep in mind with these ebike companies is that whatever they say for range it's probably going to be about 60% of that number if you're somewhat frugal with throttle. Another thing is weight. Typically even if they tell you specs of how they tested the range(like Lectric does do)it's done with a very light person. 150lbs at most is what I've noticed. So say you weigh 180 like I do that's a big difference. Then you might have a pannier, crate, backpack with stuff in it etc and it adds up. Also, I hope you took your battery inside(like not left in the cold garage)this winter. That can affect overall life performance as well possibly.

@EbikeEscape
@EbikeEscape Год назад
The top speed you are suggesting is going to be the problem. More battery will be used up at those higher speeds. Also you will need a class 3 ebike as a class 2 will stop providing power past 20mph. A Lectric XP 3.0, Aventon Sinch, and Denago Folding 1 are are top folding ebikes we recommend. And are all capable of 20-25mph and that range you are asking for.

Which one would you say is better, this or the radrover 6.0 plus? I got the 6.0 on their halloween deal so it's about the same price vs the Lectric long range battery. I still have time to return and I'm considering it. Mainly using this around the city with lots of hills and riding in the rain.
@EbikeEscape
@EbikeEscape Год назад
The best ebike, IMHO, is the one you can currently ride. The 3.0 is an awesome bike, but so is the 6+. I don't think either takes the edge for city or hilly riding. If you need the folding functionality then the 3.0 is the better option. But if you are looking for a reliable transportation for just around town, the Rover 6+ you picked up is a great option. I hope my input helped squash some of those post-purchase worries. You made a good choice. -JT

Kryptonite, ABUS or Seatylock all make some great locks. Seatylock has some easy to carry options (my personal favorite is their Foldylock, compact and attached to my bike). ABUS's Alarmbox 2.0 is also one of our favorite current locks (it is a chain and alarm lock all rolled into one). -Foldylock: amzn.to/3WFNKWR (affiliate link) -ABUS Alarmbox 2.0 (cable version): amzn.to/3Uwj34E (affiliate link) One thing missing from these recommendations is knowledge of your location. Consider your location before deciding how high security of a lock you might need. The above companies offer so many locks that you should easily be able to find a lock that fits exactly what you are looking for.
