I did that at 22:50. First, I removed and replaced the battery and then checked all of the the connections. When I got home; I confirmed the battery's charge. I removed the motor cover and checked all of the internal connections. Removed the battery and cover and checked those connections, too. Although, that isn't in the video.

This was before I worked out the audio bugs.

I can always edit stop signs out of reviews. If it's an actual commute video, those are entirely unedited.

I was rammed at a stop light by someone that told me to "get the fuck off the road." I no longer linger at stop lights.

Also, mine can do 28+ on throttle alone. I got it up to 37mph peddling too.

Apparently the switch was causing a lot of problems. Mine came with a sticker noting that it wasn’t connected. I have gotten to go 32ish, throttle only and pedaling, but I have kept it in trail mode. I have had problems with the heat causing it to restrict power fairly quickly into rides.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi I had tested the limits myself on mine. But after that I just ride it like it is supposed to be ridden. It doesn't get hot or tear up the drive-train any longer. I want to say that there is a misconception sometimes related to electric mountain bikes. Especially with all the hype Luna gives you about the voltage and specs. I tell people if you just want an electric bike with a throttle and don't intend on 'Enduro' mountain bike riding much, get something other then an X2. It's purpose built and does that very well. I have mine set with full throttle voltage with a slower response and when I go riding I put the power to only 2 out of 10 in the trail mode. That gets me the right balance of exercise with speed. But I can at any time tap the throttle and add all the power I need to pretty much show off at any time. lol

Unfortunately, there's not too much information. I think the base is going to be 1500 watt mid-drive up to 3500 watts. I'm not too sure about the battery. They are saying up to 2000+ watt hour extended range batteries but they'd be huge. I'd like to see 19+ Ah available, but with mountain bikes you're really trading weight for range. A 19 Ah 60v battery is 1140 watt hours.

The engineers said that it looked like the controller. They sent me a replacement and I’ve already switched it out and it’s back up and running, well. I’ll use it mostly as a street bike, just because I commute a lot and mountain biking requires more planning and traveling.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi I bet you were glad it was full carbon on the way home. Beware that maximum wattage of the Ludi controller is not sustainable. You’re riding a 700W motor supercharged to 2000W. For sustained street riding at higher wattage you’ll need the G620 motor from the Z1.

@@Zetler Good point. I don't plan running it sustained 2000+ watts. Thankfully, the app allows for fine tuning while street riding so I can keep to around 1500 watts while on the streets except for when I want to have a little fun or need a little extra.

Thanks, it’s incredibly easy to swap the motor and controller for these bikes.

That was one of the first thing I checked. The techs saw an error code in the video that showed a power surge suggesting a controller issue. Either way, I've switched out the motor and controller with a new one and it is back up and running well.

I've already received the replacement parts. I should be able to get them installed, soon. I was looking at alot of other mid-drive mountain bikes but most were limited to 28 mph. I had ordered a Nireeka Mega 1500, back in February, but never received it and gave up and cancelled the order a few weeks ago.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi wow that sounds pretty terrible ordering something and not getting it... I don't mind 28 mph so much because that's enough speed to get me moving pretty fast. Off-road but I want more power than most regular e-bikes are able to give.. been interested in the LMX 64 and The frey beast but they're really expensive. About 7,500 pole makes a really nice looking bike as well, but that's got one of the Bosch motors. So you're looking at what 500 watts? The virus e mythique Lt looks like a good deal too but idk low power normal bike company style emtb... I really wish that I could ride a bunch of the different ones. I don't want to spend $7,500 on a bike that I can't try before I buy it. It just seems insane to me

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi oh also what was the parts that were bad?

​@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi What replacement parts did they send you?

@@plutobars7700 They sent me a motor and controller replacement.

I'd say class 3+, but it is shipped class 3. Really, you can restrict it based on your settings or un-restrict it, to your liking.

ruclips.net/video/zg_MszXllZE/видео.html

I haven't weighed it but, with the battery I think it's about 63 lb. The shipping weight was 66lb. It's the large frame. For comparison, the Canyon Spectral CF is 54 lb (medium frame). So it would also be about 60 lb for the large frame. As for the partial refund, as long as it is fixed per the warranty; I'll be happy.

Well good luck

@@gabrielcannon7058 It's all good. The parts are already on the way, including tools.

You’re welcome. It’s definitely the best bang for buck bike I’ve found, so far.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi My bike came in on Sunday and I love the bike. The torque is so crazy it almost throws you backwards. My only issue isn’t is I can’t figure out how to program the clock on the top left of the screen. Any tips?

@@bradenmazenkovevo2683 I’ve never actually tried to change the clock. I’ll have to look.

ruclips.net/video/bTEpAyLftHY/видео.html

You can't take gas vehicles on most trails. There plenty of other reasons but it is definitely a niche bike once you get to the high price point.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi .. They have electric motorcycles with pedals.

@@DJaquithFL I was thinking price comparable ICE motorcycle - Ducati Monster, Triumph Tiger, etc

Buddy send me the link for it being 150. Your bugging

Top speed averages 34-35 mph (dual motor) on level ground either pedaling or throttle only. It'll go a little faster downhill. It tends to drop to about 32ish on a moderate hill, with pedaling. Single motor, it's the same as any 48v single motor, 27-28 mph dropping to 24ish on hills.

I'm really interested in this Bike. Mostly cruising old logging roads pretty hilly in the mountains. How would this bike perform you think? Any info would be much appreciated

This bike should be able to handle the gain, fine. The dual motors provide plenty of torque and it can go up prettty steep grade with minimal loss of speed. The main consideration is to consider your distances. Two motors require more electricity, especially if used hard. You may need a 2nd battery if you want to cover long distances.Comfort wise, it should be good. @@merlo105

Hello. What range are you getting on a full charge? Going not top speed.. more average speeds.

@@jonathanwelke I am usually going full speed and can get 20 miles, comfortably. I suspect, you could get 40+ riding moderately in single hub mode.

Are you referring to the gutters at the intersections? The suspension is fine for small bumps. I frequently jump off curbs without problems and I keep the tires at a pretty high psi. The rear suspension is not adjustable, though, so you are pretty much stuck with it as is. You could always add a suspension seat post, depending on your height. I wanted it more for the power, though. I was looking for top speed, especially on hills. The dual motor set up is perfect for that. Where you pay the price, though, is range. I think in dual motor on level 5, even with pedaling, the range limit is probably about 25-30 miles. For the price it really is pretty great.

Dude, it's supple. The thing is, you will not care about the suspension. The only thing you'll be thinking about is the power. It drives like a car. Scary acceleration. It isn't like a bicycle at all. It's a motorized vehicle.

I know. It's a bad habit that I've got to quit, pronto. I think it comes from motorcycling, where that doesn't matter. I have a mid-drive coming where that can snap a chain, though.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi mid drives are even more sensitive to gearing as the motor power goes through your drive train unlike a hub drive. Always downshift before coming to a stop. Never try to pull out in high gear or try to go up hills in high gear. You'll put major stress on your drive train and motor. You could even fry your controller. Mid drive motors like to spin at higher rpms, they don't like to be lugged. Being in the right gear for different terrains is very important. Pretend you're on a motorcycle or stick shift car. You wouldn't try to pull out in a manual stick car in 4th gear right?I've got a 750w mid drive bike and even through I'm doing what I'm suggesting you do, after 1,300 miles my cassette is shot, I need a new one. A typical bicycle drivetrain isn't really designed to handle the kind of power that mid drive motors put out, so you always have to be conscious of your gearing. I'm sure plenty of people have ruined their cassette and chain quickly because they think they can ride a mid drive like a hub motor e-bike. You can't. Or you shouldn't.

I've tried external mics and a wind cover over a go pro. In the end, there's not much to do about road noise, other than omit it and dub over. The best I've found is the gopro with a wind cover but big tires make big noise.

I believe the rear suspension is only lock/unlock. The front suspension has damping and lock/unlock. There are springs under the seat that the manufacturer touts as part of the suspension, although, I don't know that they are of substantial help. I've set the dampening a little softer than factory and have the tires about 15 psi. I'm about 175ish pounds and find the ride pretty comfortable. I regularly go over curbs and bumps.

If you're if rear wheel, only, and level 3, that'd be about 750 watts 😉. My state seems to have copy and pasted California's ebike laws. I travel over 100 miles a week on very bike unfriendly, high speed roads and through some bike friendly areas. The stickers are in case I have an encounter with an angry somebody that, actually, knows the laws.

If I'm commuting, my goal is speed. For this reason, it's dual motor the whole way. I also have a fair number of hills on my commute. I will change the power level down to 3 while in smaller neighborhoods (20 mph limits) but keep it in 5 on most faster roads. If I'm riding trails for pleasure and not rushing or going for distance, I like the rear motor, only. It just feels more natural.

All you will ever want on this monster is dual motors. The power is so addicting.

I'll post a full commute with a voltage afterward. I usually charge after each one way, which is 15.1 ish miles.My commute is really sketchy; high speed roads, no bike lanes, dense traffic, aggressive drivers and a mixture of dangerous neighborhoods and wealthy neighborhoods. I usually drive dual motor and full speed for most of the drive and still end with about 50% charge.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi do you find yourself ghost pedaling at the higher speeds or prefer to use throttle only?

@@silentangel1011 From what I can tell, it has a torque sensor. Even with dual motors and at 35 mph, there's still some feeling in the pedals. I rarely use throttle only, personal preference.

I put on 62 miles going PAS 1 & 2 with 12% battery left. I'm assuming I could get about 80 if I used just PAS 1. This was using just the rear motor. Probably about half that using dual motor mode. If you want to crush hill climbing and rough terrain this is hard to beat especially at the price.

This is a bike and pedestrian trail. In most areas, bikes are supposed to stick to the roads.

Audio has been the most difficult aspect. The first few videos, I had to over-dub. I'm continuing to work on improving it.

I found the bike on Amazon after looking on Ali-express for surron knock-offs and cheap dual motors. I looked for youtube reviews but couldn't find any and pulled the trigger blind. I've been commuting on it for several days and have found it to be really quick and comfortable. The only problem that I've had is the crappy roads have caused the front light/fender to vibrate off, even though I put blue loctite on. So far, I've put about 100 miles on it.

I will definitely do the throttle only. I'm going to use it as my primary commuter for a while, so I'll play around with it and I record all of my commutes, anyway. I should add a 0-20 or 0-30 depending on the bike. Thanks

I bought one. In 2wd mode, it'll burn out the front tire every time from a stop, throttle only, straight from the factory. No matter what you set the PAS level to, hit the throttle, and you're FLYING.

People ride bikes due to medical disorders. For instance, seizure disorders. Bikes are not required to stay at stop lights. They should stop and wait for them to clear but, also, momentum is important with a bike, especially an acoustic bike. The one time I was purposely hit by a car was while waiting at a red light. I ignored their honking, so they rammed me.

Last I checked, he his light was green. By your definition, the same rules apply and this would have been just as rude if he had been driving a car.

Nope, his light was red. My light was green. It's clearly visible in the video that I was going straight through a green light.

@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi I apologize for any confusion, but I was talking about you (as "he") in your defense, as a fellow cyclist.

@@stirfryjedi My bad. I appreciate you.

The law is that bikes must ride on the road about 3 feet from the shoulder

going on the sidewalk is illegal though

Yes

I’ve had issues with the mic adapter and the wind. It should improve with future videos. Future videos should also be available in 4k.

Not that I could find. There are the basic settings and the advanced settings. The advanced settings only allow you to change the tire size and unlock the speed settings, from what I could tell. It looked like the speed limit in the advance setting go up to 99 kmh. Subjectively, It didn't make as much difference as I expected because the bike feels really powerful but the changes only caused it to go a few mph faster by the throttle only. That may be because if the throttle power were unlimited the battery would just drain too quickly.

😊​@@EbikeCommuter-gu6qi

I agree that the audio sucks. I’m working to improve it but haven’t figured out the best way. Especially when it’s really windy and while riding.

That could be. It happened very quickly and it is true the crank was freely moving without the chain attached.
