    I love your videos. Withing a few months we'll have 3 new ebikes in the family and one will be the Lectric XP step-thru so I've been having fun educating myself by watching your videos. You're doing a great job and I like how you cover the nitty gritty details and don't just assume we all know how to do these types of mods already. Also, having the Amazon affiliate links to the products you have added is a huge bonus for all of us. You get some pocket change and we get the correct parts. win win

    Great video, very helpful.
    For any newbies, if you have never removed a rear wheel before, one thing I like to do is before I tighten anything, I give the wheel "a good spin" to make sure everything is lined up and no squealing; brakes or tires, etc.

    I just got back from the garage doing this freewheel swap on the 2.0 version. It seems even easier to drop the rear wheel in the frame than in your video. Thank you for a great guide, learning tool and portal to a better bike. The test drive was great and was well worth the $55 to upgrade

    I just changed my Freewheel on my XP and it absolutely does make getting to 28 easier. Really glad I had your video also cuz I bumped the nuts and washers by accident got them out of sequins and had to look at your video to make sure I put them the right way :-) I took my brake caliper off and it made it much easier. It went right back on with no adjustments. The whole change wasn't 10 or 15 minutes.

It is really well done and easy to follow. Great camera work under difficult circumstances. You are a good teacher. Cheers.

    This video was super helpful for me. Having never really worked on bikes, this gave me the confidence I needed. I'm a little embarrassed that I had fully tightened the wheel back before I realized I needed to put the chain on while putting the wheel back, which is a little awkward.
    For those with step-thru 2.0 like me, I didn't see a spacer disc anywhere while changing the free wheel. But the new freewheel seemed to work fine even so.
    Thanks again!

    I just ordered an XP 2.0 yesterday...I was going to get the 3.0...but circumstances wouldn't allow me to. One of the main reasons I had narrowed my choice to the 3.0 was chiefly due to the freewheel difference between the 2.0 and seeing you make the switch, I really appreciate the work you've done to let me know that I CAN do it myself if I want to make the change (which I probably will sooner or later). Keep up the good work. As far as ebike channels go, yours is one of the most thorough and informative I have found to date.

  • @BenGrilling
    @BenGrilling Год назад

    Great video. I just added on my XP 2.0, 11-34 and had no spacer to remove like your bike, and everything fit perfect with no issues. I wish I had a 9-34 instead because I fell like I need more paddle on high speed and the 11 is better but still could do better to keep 30mph. My weight is 215Lbs. Better life at high speed with some hills is 10 miles. I will be adding a 2nd batter to get me 20AH and 20 miles range.

    I have a Sondor's SX bike land love it, but as you said earlier in the video once you get to higher speeds on the bike it's like your Wile E Coyote running in the air before the big drop. I didn't change the freewheel since I didn't know which one to get but now I do. I did change the crankset of the bike to a bigger size instead of the stock. That made a whole lot of a difference in the pedaling now. I can crank the bike with the higher speed and get more speed out of my baby. I plan to also change out the freewheel now that I know which one to get. Thanks for the video.

  • @jeffreypredom1546
    @jeffreypredom1546 2 года назад +1

    I completed the upgrade thanks to your video. Ran into a bit of trouble with my XP 2.0 ST that is different from the video, my bike did not have a removable spacer behind the original gear so when I installed the replacement the gears were way out of alignment and had to do some major adjustment. Luckily I found a shimano derailleur adjustment video and problem solved. Oh and the upgrade is awesome no more freewheeling here.

    A small tip, if you get hold of a threaded bar about half inch dia. (you might have one from your front forks when the bike was packed?) , two washers and nuts, and rwo blocks of wood drilled half through the size of the bar. Cut the bar until it fits between the rear top tube of your bike with the blocks on each end. Then if you fit the nut and washers to the ends , you can use the nuts to expand the rear enough to easily clear the wheel spindles. Remove it to get the wheel off, and replace it through the spokes and tighten it again to replace the spindle . Niice, cheap and easy way to do an awkward job.

    I put an 11-34 that you have linked and it is night and day. I mean totally different ride. The 34 was insanely nice to the point of getting goosebumps with first steep hill. I live in WV and on a hill so there's a few treacherous and some intermediate hills on my commute. I had to push on the huge ones before and now I can kick it in to 1st and pedal with absolute ease. I put it in 2nd for intermediate hills no problem. To give you an idea of how well it rides I can pedal it easily from a full stop with no motor at all and it doesn't feel like pedaling a tank.
    Also, before I was having trouble hitting 28 on flat ground and running out of pedal, now it's a humongous change and have plenty of pedal even when topping out.
    The only thing I had to adjust was the tension screw (not sure of exact name) that you can adjust by hand on the before the gear derailleur. Perfect video.

      Jeremiah Mcintosh I am very happy with it and the company has been very responsive when I had a S900 cable fail. They sent a warranty replacement LCD right away. I have the 36v 500 watt motor, but I also added a 500 watt 36v mxus motor to the front with a second controller and sw900 lcd. The bike no longer slows for hills, but the gear ratio made a night and day difference so I no longer over spin the cranks in 6th and 7th gear. I am 6ft 250 lbs and I get a consistent sustainable 25mph using pedal assist @ 5 in 7th gear. Thanks

      Thanks Jerry. Right after I took it for the first spin I realized I should’ve changed it along time ago LOL

    Hello thanks for video's my question is the special socket you used to loosen the gears do you need to use it to tighten the new gears you put in?

    Caution when mounting rear tire! Jeremiah, I did not replace my freewheel yet, but did have an opportunity to remove my rear wheel to replace tires and tubes and slime them. A few days after the repairs were complete I happen to notice my chain/derailer was very close to my tire when in 1st gear, almost touching. I compared to my other XP and noticed the other had an approx. 1/2" clearance. After confirming that my derailer and other components were not bent I attempted a derailer adjustment to no avail. I then stuck my fingers in between the frame and front of tire on each side and confirmed the tire was centered. I then compared to my other XP and realized the tire on the other XP was mounted slightly bias to the left. That is to say the front of the rear tire is approx. 1/4" closer to the frame than the left side. When I researched this it turned out fat tire bikes in general have tight tolerances between chain/tire especially in 1st gear due to the fat 4" tires. Makes sense. To fix the issue I loosened the rear axle nuts on both sides and lifted the rear of bike off the ground. I could then shake the rear tire and realized the washers with a lock tooth allowed the wheel mount to move approx. 1/8" on the azimuth . I pushed the front of the tire towards the left (or rear of tire towards the right) like the other XP and tightened. Chain alignment issue was now resolved with a substantial clearance in 1s gear. I wanted to point this out to anyone who removes the rear wheel for any reason. You need to verify that when in 1st gear, your chain/derailer are not rubbing against your tire. In retrospect, Lectric should have used a 6 speed freewheel and allowed more of a gap between the 1st gear chain/tire clearance rather than having to install wheel off center.

      Are you saying that when the axle is sitting completely seated in the axle frame dropouts with the nuts loose that the wheel is not correctly aligned and you tweaked it sideways for clearance before tightening?

  • @kennethmiller6936

    I found by putting a long flat head screw driver between the frame and wheel, then gently pry it open a little bit. The tire will fall into place completely in. I’ve changed about 20 flat tires on my Yamee.

    Kudos on a great channel!
    I just replaced the free wheel and seat suspension thingy, and it’s a whole new bike!
    I had already found & purchased the same ROCKBROS Bike Rack Bag Trunk Bag, which is really cool. The fold down panniers work great and you can store things in there too.
    The cloud 9 seat, the reflective wheel tape and other stuff you’ve shown, I’ve pretty much apeded and I am super happy with everything.
    This video in particular made changing the fly wheel a snap!
    Keep up the good work and thanks!

    if u can take some measurements of and or video of the handlebar post connection to the fork.? I should be getting my xp in the next couple of weeks and am planning to upgrade the fork to a suspension fork. ive found a few fat tire forks but haven't ordered anything yet because im not sure and I dont want to spend money on something that wont work / fit the frame. I think you might like the upgrade and get views on a video upgrading the fork. its definitely one of the top wants of owners as far as ive seen. someone at lectric said they hadn't found one that works yet.? but if you did an amazon affiliate link to it might make you somethin.? just a request/idea if I get mine and do the upgrade before I see a video from you on it ill post a link to the fork and any special tools needed. thanks for the freewheel info.

    Hi. Was doing real well attempting to remove the back wheel on my ST 2.0 to change the freewheel. Carefully cut the zip ties, took lots of pictures too. HOWEVER, I could not even slightly unscrew either axle nuts. It's as if they're welded on. Any suggestions?

    Great review. I just got our Xp lectric bike last week I can already tell it is awesome. The only problem is the speed o meter and trip doesn’t work. Lectric said they are going to send me a new wheele and motor. The motor is why it’s not giving the speed. I have to what to see what all I get.

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  4 года назад +1

      Wow that’s crazy that you would need a new wheel? Let me know when you get it if it fixes your problem I’m curious. Thanks

  • @E-BikingAdventures

    I just ordered a 11-34. My cheap chinese stock freewheel has a busted 11(7th gear). The ratcheting has so much play in it, that it bangs every time you start to pedal. You really do need that 11 for an ebike. I've never had to gear down to 1st, but my bike came with the 11-34, so that's what I ordered.

  • @Hamdalorian
    @Hamdalorian 2 года назад

    I think the 34 tooth would be more useful if your using the bike for bike packing or touring, just because of the added weight on the bike. But I’m definitely upgrading the gearing on my bike coming up

    Hi Jeremiah, We Received our two XP 2.0”s a few days ago. I definitely want to put a different freewheel on. Even in PAS 5 and in the 6th or 7th gear the pedals cannot catch up to the motor, and I have not even adjusted the speed to 28 mph yet.Will the 11-28 freewheel work as well on the new 2.0 Lectric?

    Looks good, not too hard looking. Would like to mention that now would have been be a good time to remove the tire/ innertube and wrap gorilla tape around the inside of the rim for extra protection from the spokes.

    • @JeremiahMcintosh
      @JeremiahMcintosh  4 года назад

      Good tip but I did flatten the tires enough to pinch it in to make sure the liner was installed correctly covering all the spokes.
