- Wondering how to clean your eBike? This video will take you through tips and tricks for how to keep your ride squeaky clean, without damaging the components of your Lectric eBike. Check it out!
As my wife and I approach 1000 miles on our Xp 2.0 in about a years time, We are so amazed by these E-bikes. Both are still going strong and not one problem with them. When we clean our bikes, we do the same thing as in the video. Preventative maintenance is key to keeping these in tip top shape. Thanks Lectric for building such an amazing bike ! Keep up the work and we can't wait to see what's in store for the future of your company. LECTRIC FOR LIFE !!!!!
This is amazing - 1,000 miles and going strong! Thank you for being a friend to Lectric and for your support. 💙 Our team is stoked to see what adventures are ahead of you.
Good to show this to the bike owner to see the best way to keep the bike clean.
Yes of course! We all want our riders to be confident about their ride, and sometimes that means a sleek, clean eBike!
Can you please list the spray your using and the chain lube. Thank you
1000+ miles XP 2 in six months. Original brakes and tires. In addition, If you want more life from your bike......On the painted surfaces no rinse no spraying car wash maybe used as it contains some repellent wax for potection. Additional ceramic wax protects and repels more. Use chain cleaning device sold at bike shops, much better. Also cog wheel and derallier brush. Clean electrical contacts gently and protect. EBay had listing for custom made handlebar and rear frame protectors for upside down position.
wish that little black plug would go in easier.
I trimmed mine. I saw another video where this was discussed.
yah i would be nice
Trimming it reduces its ability to seal out water. @@timsolomon8352
Thank you for these videos Lectric
Of course! Any other ideas for videos in the future?
@@LectriceBikes derailer alignment/tightening perhaps?
Thanks so much. really appreciate the quality of my xp 3.0. Its been an absolute joy!
When it's not too dirty, I use Rain X water-less car wash, it cleans and protects as well.
Thank you for this awesome tip! 😎
Thank you for sharing what you use. I believe Rain X waterless Car Wash is an excellent substitute to Super Bike Wash for my Lectric 2.0 and other bikes i own.
Definitely share what has worked for you and any other products you recommend, your feedback greatly benefits our Lectric community!
Do you recommend using a chain cleaner? Interval? Thanks for this!
So, I see some conversation below about hosing....Can I just hose the tires/spokes/derailer/chain lightly?
Absolutely! Just make sure that you're proactive about drying/wiping afterward.
Will the components power up again once it dries out ? Bec I hosed it and it’s not powering up!?@@LectriceBikes
Can you put ArnorAll tire shine on the tires?
Can these bikes withstand Burning Man week in the desert??
ahh i washed it with the water holes and missed up my display, so don't do that to your handlebars bars I learned this the hard way. ops is there away I can check the mother board on the display to see if it got wet I haven't checked it yet but the one in the button cover looked ok.
How do you clean the lectric trike can you make video on how...
It's the same exact way what do you mean
I have a 3.0 can I flip it over on the handlebars without hitting the screen?
just rotate the screen so it won't touch the floor then re-position it when you turn the bike back on its wheels
Hi James, like others have mentioned, you can rotate the screen so that it is not going to be in contact with the floor!
@@gonzo2.0 Amazon has these little jacks that you attach to the top of your handlebars, and when you flip it over it will protect your screen, I seen it on RUclips but can't remember the name of the channel or the name of the item, guess I'll just search for bike repair items on Amazon and I might get lucky and find it for my 3.0🥰
That sounds wonderful! Our community is always making new great accessories and selling them through Etsy or other marketplaces, which we love! 💙
@@LectriceBikes I found them, they're actually called handlebar jacks
So glad I have a belt drive.
Great videos. How about a button to remove the awful music?
I guess it's OK to always keep the key in the "ON" position
Oh man I just cringed watching this when the main part of the bike frame was all clean then you did the tires. The spray and dirt will then get the frame dirty again:) I would personally start with the bottom and work to the top. Excellent video though and wonderful company to deal with
What happens if it won’t turn on after a heavy washing?
It’s done lol
After thorough indoor drying and jiggering with connectors…it turned back on! Works perfectly and 450km on my ODO. Totally waterproof!!!!@@spinaltap111
Yawn, I do the exact same treatment to my "electric" ATV's and "electric" monster truck's (they have batteries too but cost 10's of thousands more) so my one day's mudding adventure turns into days of cleaning or I could just take them by the car wash to be done in less time to watch this video but alas, I just hose down my lectric bike with my pressure washer then blow dry it with my air compressor or leaf blower, no chemicals needed (soap or alcohol).
Hey there! We certainly don't recommend hosing down your eBike as this essentially could ruin your electronically components such as lcd display, controller, motor, etc. Have a stellar day! ⚡️
@@LectriceBikes Yea but you’re basically just doing a quick once over in this video. There is no possible way you’re cleaning all the dirt and grime out of the nooks and crannies with a rag…. The drive train especially. I don’t see any other way to get a deep clean without using at least a light jet of water. Away from the electric components of course
Our eBikes are rated IP-65 to withstand light rain and small puddles. By classification, this means that it can "resist a sustained, low-pressure water jet spray." You can certainly clean your components but be mindful of the electrical components, sealed ports and plugs, and remove the battery as an extra precaution.
@@LectriceBikes Sounds good thanks. Would you say the motor is sealed up pretty tight? Enough for me to rinse the cassette and derailleur without spraying the hose towards the motor or connections?
That motor is sealed pretty tight! You can squeeze along the motor cable that protrudes from the rear axle to check for any breaks/cracks as an extra precaution, but yes, you should be good!
Make a video how to take off the Back rim. And put it back on.
pink cleaner = Finish Line Super Bike Wash
A light electric pressure wash and a leaf blower and your bike, wheels,and tires are much cleaner than this and you are done in 1/4 time. Watch a few e mountain bike wash videos and just be careful around the motor and cables
I am wondering if you are a legitimate company I cannot get an email through and I thought that it might because I am in Canada but I had my brother try from his US email and it was also rejected. Also it is impossible to get through on the advertised phone number

On the new lite xp 2.0 jw
I guess, I should have watched this before I hosed it off to get the sand off. huh.
This is totally contradictive of anything I've learned over the years for taking care of a painted surface. I think this guy is selling cleaning products.
Hey Del. We can't advise for other brands or type of ebikes but this is what we recommend for Lectric eBikes!
why background music? I cant watch this, the music is grating and useless
Hey Christopher! Thank you for your feedback. We have discovered that if customers are listening with their ear buds, the background music may play in one while the voice in the other! Hope this helps.
this is pain to watch.., take it to power wash 2-3 mins your done then dry off..
