EKX X-21 range test... How far with electricity only??!! NO PEDALING!

- Tested range of my e-bike on normal city speeds and trying to preserve battery. Throttle only.... NO PEDALING!!
Different test and test area needed for full power full speed range test. Here in Finland speed limit is 25km/h for these bikes and that or maybe little slower would give you the optimal range too. Maybe range tests with full power and with pedaling are something I will try in future. But lets see what happened here...
Está buena la bicicleta esa. Saludos.
On my X21 the voltages weren't set correctly in the factory so the bar guages read incorrectly. So i had to reprogram it based on a manual i found on the Internet. After 10 miles bike losses 10% if travelling at 20 Mph In mode 3. But my display is a little different than yours. Great trip
Aside from your great bike video - Finland is stunningly beautiful. In the summer would be constant outdoors and on a lake (with tons of insect spray :-) Been to Luosto a couple of times.
That is true and now that I often choose bike instead of car, I see a lot more of it 😊👍 This bike has been a great thing in many ways. Seen a lot of places that I have missed driving by and got more fresh air in a month than I normally get in a year 😅 If all goes well, I will make a roadtrip in countryside and see places where I never went before 😊 And I will make a video of it ofcourse 😄 oh and insects do not bother while riding... but if you stop in middle of forest... those damn monquitos do find you ... almost instantly 😂
The bars is based on the voltage. So if you put a lot of throttle the voltage temporarily falls and makes bar go down. The max voltage is about 54.6 volts and the minimum is about 39 volts (cut off protection). They sent my a manual which was in Chinese, so i had to reprogram the bike. Because whoever did it, didn't do it accurately Bar 1= 41v BAR 2= 44. BAR 3=46.5v. Bar 4= 48.5. Bar 5= 51v. Bike automatically stops charging at 54.6v (max full) also not sure about your display in mine. you can change it to voltage view, which gives better understanding of what the bike is doing and how much the throttle is affecting the voltage. Regards. How this helps
Thanks a lot for this tip too. They seem to have different display on latest bikes. I am not sure if it is possible to make this show thd voltage. I have to check that. I had to change the current controller takes from battery as it was a lot lower than what controller specs said. Other than that I have not seen such setting possible on my display. But even if it is not possible for me, there might be lots of people watching with same problems as you. So info and tips are much appreciated 👍💪
I have practically the same electric bike EKX X20,
the choice of purchase was made due to the availability of the luggage rack and mudguards.
Tires have been changed and the front sheet and rear shock absorber have also been changed
in addition, I separately installed turn signals and improved the visible rear light.
I have an extra battery on the luggage rack, my idea is to start traveling with it
In Estonia and Latvia, maybe also in Lithuania and to drive longer distances,
then two batteries are needed. I did some test rides to test it out
durability of batteries. I speak in three languages in the videos, Estonian, English and Russian,
I speak in Russian because my relatives, who are ethnic Estonians,
live in Siberia and the new generation unfortunately no longer knows Estonian.
Estonia also has a legal speed limit for electric bicycles and electric scooters
25 km/h and the speedometer of my X20 e-bike also shows the wrong speed,
when compared to real GPS speed. It is interesting to see in your videos that cyclists in Finland have
more privileges over cars or so it seems to me.
I need to check your videos later 👍👍 sounds really interesting 😊 I was planning a little 100km+100km roadtrip this summer too, but lets see how the weather goes when that time is 😅
I was also thinking about x20 for long time, but liked more how x21 looks 😅 I guess you can pedal better with x20 too. I think biggest difference is in suspension and break plates are different too if I recall right. Then on other side x20 can be pedaled and has that rack + mudguards.
Both are great looking bikes 😍 Need to check your videos. That extra battery must take you far with pedaling and even without I would guess.
In Finland you have more rights on bikes than on motor vehicles. Pedestrians have more, but riding bike lanes and crossing roads on those lanes often give you right of way. On normal roads you are almost the same as cars with rules and rights.
@@Usva78 The battery of the X21 electric bike is longer and can actually be used there
to be a battery with a capacity of 35 Ah, X20 is the place for battery installation
shorter and the battery is also shorter. I should also "officially"
there must be a battery with a capacity of 35 Ah, but I doubt it very much,
I think there is still a 30Ah battery in my X20
on an electric bike. And in general, I do not trust the stories of the Chinese,
that the battery has Samsung cells, I have seen many batteries that
where there should be Samsung cells in the battery, but in reality
are the elements of the noname
Yes, I saw X20 sold with batteries between like 20-35Ah. The samsung shells are a bit better than normal ones. If I remrmber right, samsung ones could take 1000 charges before starting to go lower capacity and the normal chinese cells could take around 600+... sounds like a big deal on bikes lifespan, but as you said cant really trust them 😅 I bet the russian telegram channel would know if I knew enough russian to ask 😂 I mainly look at pictures there and if interesting stuff comes I start translating messages 😅
Bikes are tuned brand there, but basics might be the same. Im subben on both Syccyba channels as those I could find, but not anything with original EKX
@@Usva78 Syccyba Impulse is a brand name for sale in Russia,
I have not seen that these models are assembled in Russia,
these X20 and X21 are still imported from China to Russia.
Gunai MX25 (battery capacity 25 Ah) sold in Europe
The difference between Syccuba Impulse X20 and X21 and EKX X20 -21 is very small,
sometimes the Syccuba Impulse X20 - X21 has a different saddle and accordingly
for Slavic originality, LED lights are sometimes added to the battery grilles,
that sparkle and shine like a Jewish Christmas tree, I think
its ridiculous. The X21 model probably has a good and long soft saddle,
I also changed my X20 to a bigger and softer saddle,
to be comfortable to ride long distances and indeed, this saddle is
pretty good on my X20, not even comparable to the original saddle
Oh well, sometimes SI models are also equipped with an alarm system,
but it is installed locally by local dealers in Russia,
because the Russians steal everything and constantly, for example also in Estonia
persons serving a criminal sentence are mostly all Russians,
because they cheat and steal constantly.
Yes there are some customisation and I guess different versions of bikes (5? One with 2 motors) too. They do have lots of x21 and x20 related infofmation on Syccyba community. It is related enough to bd useful for EKX bikes too 😊👍
Saddle of x21 is good, but for my ass it is still around 70km in one day where it starts to feel bad. It might be that I pedal on my way home and thats no good or I might be a bit heavy. I have thought about buying a seatcover for more comfortable ride as I ride so long trips.
Oh watched one of your videos and had lots of questions about chargers, car carger adapter and your setup for camera to get so clear sound while riding 😅 interesting stuff 😊👍
I also had the same issue you had with the inaccurate speed. You have to reduce the wheel size in the display. Your display is a little different than mine, but in the factory they set the wheel to 24 inches. If you measure the wheel it isn't 24 inches. So that causes the inaccurate speed and distance. Apart from that. Very lovely bike.
Thanks for the tip! In many places I read that 24 was right size to get accurate speed, but as it is not accurate then I should have tried that before 😅 I will check and see what are the options 😊👍
@Usva78 no worries. I myself wanted all the speed. So the 3 MPH different was really itching me. especially when i kept seeing the GPS.
Changed to 22 inches and now it is more or less correct... sad thing is that the max speed came down a bit to the correct level 😂😂🙈
@@Usva78 what is the max speed now?
Was around 46 (29mph?) on straight but not full battery when I did the changes... next time I check the real one, but it did drop by at least 5km/h I think 😅
Strange because on their official site they said that it's capable of riding 150km with 25km/h speed.
I remember seeing that too, but on many pages they have changed it now. I guess with 150cm 40kg rider you could easily get 100km or even 120km... but I weight a lot more in 115kg and have maybe 10+kg of stuff in my bags and also am 190cm tall so wind resistance is bigger. But even in perfect eorld with tiny rider 150km is really high. They do say it is 2kW motor too and 55km/h max speed. And we know those are not real... I guess you need to think that you get what you pay for and with these china bikes even when it is awesome as this, they do try to make it look better on paper than it actually is 😅👍
Wow, was literally about to buy this bike but not anymore. I thought it had better range and could touch speeds of 35mph guess not 😂
Yes it is what you get for 1400€, but I do think there are not that many bikes with same range in this price range 🤔 with lighter rider it might go a little faster and have longer range ofcourse... Im a bit heavy 😄 But good thing that my video helped to decide 😊👍👍 I think going 25-30mph you are looking at 30-40 mile range and slower like this you saw the range for guy my size 😊 I was thinking it would go 100km (60+ miles) with this kind of speed, but I guess not 😅
I would remove sticker with gps tracking, you basically giving heads up to thieves locate it and remove it, before stealing, my friend bike was stolen and not located because he had also sticker, gps tracker was left at bike place after its been removed
Good point, you are right 😊👍 If after seeing the sticker, the bike thief still decides to steal it then it is not so good thing to have there... at the moment it is more like deterrent and does same job with or without actual tracker.
Can you tell me how to reset the trip odometer on my x21?
Press and hold -and i untill trip is reseted 😊👍
@@Usva78 Thank You
what is the battery specs v and ah ??
48V 35A and add says 21700 Samsung cells.
