@@markeagle7650 no prob! Glad to help.

@@stephanbennett2242 Haha, yeah I was just tired of all the pricey accessories RUclipsrs are trying to sell with ads disguised as reviews. So annoying.

No plug connected to it. What you're looking at is likely a capacitor. No rear lights available on models made so far.

@Funcentric I've seen capacitors before, that is definitely not a capacitor It looks like you can plug another one of those white plugs into it I've seen somebody on here that had tail lights connected.... But that is definitely not a capacitor

@ maybe I’m looking at the wrong thing. Sorry not sure what you’re referring to.

@@capcom4eva haha. I wouldn’t want those gloves anyway.

@@josephdrew7864I took the Onewheel that day. Slowed everyone down. Haha. No Esk8 for me.

@@cinculatorgefufne6497 I’ve been with AliExpress since before Amazon sold more than just books. I suspect you haven’t had enough experience. It is also about the objective structure of each business. Temu also doesn’t treat their sellers well at all. They take over, set their own prices without negotiation and sometimes aren’t even paying their suppliers. Temu isn’t a company you want to be supporting regardless of refunds. Again, when you deal with Temu for communication, it’s all Temu. With AliExpress, sellers have much more incentive due to the competition between other sellers for the same product. That doesn’t exist for Temu because it’s all in house.

@@Maxiepop Unfortunately, I’ve been hearing similar reports. I really don’t know why. I have 6 sets and have repaired them numerous times and no issues. Possible that maybe there are defective units or incompatible ones out there. Perhaps try with the other remote?

@@barryglickman8976 haha yeah long video. I’m filming and editing a might time accessories video as part 2. Should be fun.

@@jeffgalanos3207 they’re very good at refunds. I haven’t had an issue yet.

@@ManoloVazquezjr thanks!

@@ImlDRFWY yeah the watt hour / 20 rule seems legit and allows you to adjust based on each individual. Those numbers are way under the claimed manufacturer numbers.

@@ansonbiller exactly! And the sound is actually not that loud when being used outdoors. I think everyone is just overwhelmed by the echo of it in my garage. Probably should’ve filmed outside. Haha.

@@Mark-qv4bn great that you bought one at a time. Buying one to assess first is the way to go. I’ve seen people buy two at once and then regret it.

@@ABCdefGZER haha, I don’t need to see it. I own this and live in San Francisco with plenty of hills. The Aventon Abound never brags about hill climbing and is a much more capable climber than the XPedition. Also likely whatever video you’re referring to did not have cargo on the cargo bike. Testing a cargo bike without cargo is useless. That’s like lifting the bike in the air with no rider and recording the top speed of the motor. Irrelevant.

@@ABCdefGZER I’m not even sure that you are clear what the relevancy of your comment is. Are you trying to convince me that you should buy the XPedition because indeed it’s a good hill climber out of the box? No need to convince me. Get it if you want. Don’t if you don’t. Your selection has nothing to do with me.

You are a funny little beta male 😊

I don't have an opinion on whether it should or shouldn't be. But it's definitely not. The only reason why people ride ebikes over alternative modes of transportation that are more convenient, harder to steal is b/c of the familiarity with ebikes. Most people know how to ride a bike but there's a bit of effort to learn to ride the other stuff. Parking of an ebike is a lot more risky than other micromobility products. No one really steals Onewheels and EUC's and esk8's mostly b/c thieves dont' know how to ride them and owners typically take them into wherever they are going. I wouldn't recommend parking an ebike unattended for more than 15 minutes. Benefit of an ebike is if it has cargo and you're planning to carry more than what fits in a backpack.

As far as EV cars being the future, yes for commercial purposes or ride share but we won't be seeing over 50% of private cars on the road that are electric in our lifetime....in America.

@@leeedsonetwo because?

@@Funcentric People have had serious injuries due accidents while wearing them.

@@leeedsonetwo I see. I'll take the risk. I don't want to be carrying the lock any other way,

Yeah, I found that annoying myself too and didn't want to jump on that bandwagon. Since the release of this video, Shredlights has upgraded their firmware and app which allows the bluetooth to be turned off automatically after 20 minutes for storage. This is a bit of a gamechanger b/c now we dont' have to worry about the batteries draining on standby. Particularly important on the underglow lights that I suspect have a smaller battery than the other headlights/tail lights.

@@davidlanders2853 nope. But I’ll look into it. Thanks.

@@Mark-qv4bn nice! Glad you’re enjoying the new chapter in your life. As an actual replacement for a car which is rare, you definitely ARE saving money. Better health too I presume. Ride safe and enjoy!

@@avidlearner2386 Unfortunately not. I’m hearing about this issue from others too. I’ve bought 5 pairs of lights and no issues personally for me to address. My best recommendation is to check that the remote has battery and if all else fails, request a refund and find another seller.

@@tylerdo4482 I know what you mean 100%. The bar is too low for most scenarios. I wish it was offset at a higher height above where it mounts to the seat post.

@@tylerdo4482 I vaguely remember someone saying in the Facebook groups that there was a change. I didn’t have to make modifications on my first generation XPedition. It didn’t look like it would work but I was so desperate that I just wiggled it in and it worked even though it didn’t appear the holes lined up.

@@LukaDeily unc?

@@user-rv9lb4vm6y Thanks, night time accessories video in the making.

@@timvoght4866 No, if you get an Arma, get it from them directly. You can buy a mini one AKA MJX car from aliexpress though.

I see what you mean, but I guess what I'm saying is that I'm not given my rides like some "reviewers" on youtube. The stuff I do buy, I spend a lot of time researching with lots of considerations. The blue bike i built myself 15 years ago. I just loved it enough to keep it and revive it. The yellow bike I wanted for 8 years. The brand Juiced is now gone as of a couple weeks ago. So it wasn't bought on a win. I had my eye on it for almost a decade. The white cargo bike is for the family. So it's recreation, but also does have some utility. Avoiding parking/traffic, etc.

@@Funcentric honestly was joking man. I can tell you probably work hard for your stuff and collect things over time. thx for the kool video and reply

@@brickrebel5599 It’s cool, I’m not offended. I completely understand. Just wanted to clarify. It’s not really relevant to the products so I don’t go into my personal situation in detail but it’s also not a secret. Glad you’ré enjoying the videos. I have some new lighting g products coming in a week or so that I’ll be including in my night time riding accessories video. A lot of editing involved but should be worth it.

@@adambell96 possible remote batteries need to be changed out. Possible you had left it on?

Any idea what kind of battery is in the remote?

@@adambell96 some sort of button battery. CR something likely.

@@dianediaz1048 These aren’t an urgent product to have. Still an accessory. If you’ré barely scraping by, I recommend you keep your money and skip this.

@@DavidIknaian no

​@@Funcentric Hi, I bought two sets of the same lights from Ali Express. Long story short, I had to send one of them back because a light wasn't working. I got a new pair yesterday and paired a light to the right signal button but can't figure out how to pair the other light to the right signal as well. After reading the manual it seems like these lights aren't individual, but they are specific to a side. After that I realized I had sent back two right side likes by accident.... Now I'm stuck with 3 left lights and 1 right light unless I can figure out how to un-pair the left light and pair it to the right button. Sorry for the tl/dr but do you have any suggestions on I can pair the light to the right button? I want to avoid sending another order back for a refund.

@ the ones I got are not specific to any side. I got lazy and instead of removing and reinstalling the light on the correct side after charging and forgetting where they originated from, I just repaired it when I realized I mounted them on the incorrect side. Although a vast majority of comments have communicated success, I do have a few people commenting pairing issues. I really don't know why the difference in experience.

@ ugh, this sucks, thanks for the help. I think I’m going to have to send them back again. I’m just gonna send them back to lefts this time haha and hopefully get it right this time

@ yeah that’s probably your best bet.

@@cleoterrell8913 not sure. You may have to just experiment with different combinations of remote and turn signals. Not sure. If I paid $50/pair, I’d expect a lot more but at these discount prices, I’m okay with some having issues. Aliexpress sellers are pretty good with returns and refunds which is always an option.

@@redsandokan yeah, as long as we are respectful and don’t do anything crazy to get attention, I think well be okay.

@@Rustaci yeah, you don’t want a longtail cargo bike for food delivery. Much too big and not nimble enough. I also got about 20mi on a single battery setup before I bought a second. I was mostly on PAS 3. Half of the trip was with load and the other half without. Short but major hills. The bike is indeed intended for recreation and not commercial use. Also there’s no suspension fork. It is a rigid setup front and back.

@@Funcentric Surprisingly, the size is not an issue. I imagined it much bigger, judging by your scary video :) And it is much less heavy than I thought. My roommate's bike is way heavier. If it wasn't about suspension and, most of all, batteries, I would keep it.

@@Funcentric Continuing on the topic of delivery… Today, I did a DoorDash shift from 4:20 pm to 11:17 pm. I was riding at speed 2 (about 10-15 mph, mostly around 12-13 mph). The commute to and from the work zone was about 36-40 minutes total. Overall, I worked for 7 hours and 12 minutes, with 6 hours of active time, which is about the same as what I used to do with my previous bike. I completed 17 orders, which is also pretty normal for me. The big downside is definitely the lack of suspension on this bike. Overall, you can get the job done, but you'll worry much about food shaking. and drinks leaking

@@Rustaci yeah that’s not really what the bike is for but glad you’re able to get away with it to do what you needed. I’m surprised it lasted a whole day.

@@Funcentric I was pedaling the whole time (it wasn't too hard), coasting pretty often, but for the last 20 minutes, I really had to push to keep up a speed of at least 11-13 mph.

@@Rustaci nope that function would be built into the controller. You’d have to replace the whole controller. I would stick with a regular physical lock. You’d need that anyway. An electronic lock is more of a secondary lock. I suppose you could hook you a second switch somewhere along the power wire that’s hidden. That’s probably your best bet if you’re looking for something like that. You’ll have to splice wires and stuff.

@@Funcentric Thank you

@@Rustaci not a brake light because that is a function of the controller which this Ebike does not have. You would have to replace the controller with one that has that functionality. As a workaround, you can look for an aftermarket light that has a built in gyro similar to helmet ones so that it will brighten or turn sold red when braking. As for a turn signal, I have a separate video with a demo of one.

@@Funcentric Thank you for the quick answer!
