Wow! you got the advertised range, which is so rare these days on PEVS. Im also even more amazed that you rode the bike for over 2 hours! Man, that must have been some long editing to cut the footage down to 28 minutes. I have so much respect for what you do man. 😎👊
Thanks! Yah I was surprised actually. At one point I was like, c’mon, you’ve gotta stop at some point lol. I expected somewhere between 22-25 tops. Didn’t think it’d go the full 30. If I did I would have put on more sunscreen lolol. Yah 2 hours of video can be challenging. I finally wised up and moved my iMovie library to a SanDisk Extreme SSD. With my old process I had files all over the place between local and external hard drives.
I can only get a little over 30 miles in PAS 2. I get nowhere near the advertised range. I've tried different tire pressure, temperature and travel a fairly flat path. I weigh 210 lbs and don't carry much added weight
Funny that Tom mentioned the safety gear and horrific accidents.... You were the first one I thought of when he said that, then I see that you're here in the comments. :)
@Patriot36 hahaha, yeah man ive been subscribed to Tom since he had about 170 subscribers. He's a cool guy and hope i get to meet him someday. If i lived where he lived id even lend him my RS so he can take it for a spin and know what a Hyper Scooter can do.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 That's cool that you found his channel so quickly. A likeable dude right off the bat, for sure. It would be cool to ride with him sometime but I'm sure he's a busy man.
Just did the first day of the RAGBRAI on a XP 3.0 Long Range. Battery lasted 40 miles peddling mostly using PAS 2 with a fair amount of hills. Brought a spare battery (wife's) just in case. Good ride.
I wondered if people used these for that ride. That’s definitely one way I could do that. My aunt & cousin did it one year & said it was the hardest but funnest thing they’d ever done. They did it old school style tho.
@@k_j6923 I have done the first day twice on a traditional bike. I'm 63 now and have a questionable knee so I rode the ebike instead. It's definitely a fun event and you really get the same experience on an ebike, just makes the hills more bearable. I didn't get any flack about the ebike and a few people were curious. Much better than not participating. I like my ebike but if I did it again I would buy a more conventional ebike with full size wheels. I haven't use the folding function yet.
Great video. I've seen similar and slightly more mileage on mine (throttle only) but I started off a little slower, cruising at 15-16mph from the outset. When I purchased mine, Lectric was throwing in the suspension seat post and a 2nd long range battery. I couldn't "not" purchase... haha. A buddy of mine purchased his XP Lite at the same time. It does well for what it is but has the small battery. I like the range and the gearing of the XP 3.0... along with the hydraulic brakes. Those are just too nice to pass up.
Thank you for testing the range of this bike. I am currently looking for an e-bike and this is something that is important to me and has helped me make up my mind on which brand to choose!
WOW! I am super impressed with the throttle only test. Thanks for doing this. You have motivated me to hop on and go for a ride. Love my XP 3.0 long range. ~Boston Ma.
Yah it’s such a fun bike. It had been a few weeks since I took a ride when I made that video. Had me questioning why I didn’t ride for those three weeks haha. Have fun!
I wIsh they were more affordable I got 350 saved back for a bike but looks like 1k is the minimal u can find shipped for my size 6’4 250 lb. I need something to get to college 5 days a week in fall I’m walking now 15 miles 2 days a week summer but goodness it kills me
It’s definitely one of my favorites. I’ve seen some dual motor wire harnesses online that people use to double up on range. Is that the setup you have as well?
If your speaking of Electric all wheel or other places. I don't use one I just change the battery out. For more range. @tomsgadgetgarage @@tomsgadgetgarage
Nice! Second battery would be nice. I meant to type dual battery wire harness but instead wrote dual motor haha. I guess that would be sick too. Yah I’ve seen some people order a special wire harness that lets you run both batteries without having to swap em out.
@@tomsgadgetgarageThat would be pretty cool to have a dual motor I think at 1000 w motor to get enough speed with the power. Dual batteries with that would be awesome. The problem is there is so much traffic where I live, trying to go too fast would be a death ticket. Plus get me across this town which is 12 miles pretty fast. lol
I have the same Lectric bike and find the seat to be a bit uncomfortable. Do you have a suggestion on a more comfortable seat. I truly enjoy my Lectric Bike. My wife owns the trike and she also enjoys it. Thank you for sharing.
Hello! I too find the stock seat uncomfortable during long rides. I switched to this seat here on both my Lectric XP 3.0 as well as the Lectric ONE. It makes a huge difference Cloud 9 Bike Seat: amzn.to/47XeWWS
We live in Canada and have enjoyed our XP's up until Lectric announced they will no longer ship internationally. We can no longer get parts support from them and will have to go aftermarket moving forward. No longer impressed with their customer support.
This was a great video. 😮 I was going to buy the Lectric XP3 when I discovered the Chinese company that makes all the bikes for Lectric, and they sell them at a fraction on the price. I got the A2 folding bike from the company called AiPAS New York, they offer all the same functionality of the XP3 but with many extra features and the A2 is about $300.00 less. I used that extra money I saved to buy others accessories like rear carry bag, suspension seat post, and better seat. I highly suggest AiPAS New York as they are a U.S. base company and have great customer service.
Oh wow, I checked into this and it seems to be exactly the same specs but for $300 less. Even their accessories are the same. They have additional features like electronic horn and turn signals too! Now I feel sad...
@@AznPrzsnAipas is not a properly run company. They do not have customer service and the whole thing feels shady. They promised 3-5 day shipping and did not ship for weeks. I would pay the extra for lectric just for not having to deal with Aipas
@@sajalpant6982 Yeah I researched more into them. I find that actually they are a company that copied the design from Lectric. They do seem to have a few better components for a lower price, but I don't trust company whose website looks like something I made in 9th grade. Thanks friend.
Love my XP 3.0 great video. Great milage. I usually set my PAS to 5, going for short rides of 9 miles or so to my family's houses. It's great for someone without a car to get around on. I know it goes 28mph if you unlock it, but you really don't even need to. Have to get a spare battery soon, though, just in case.
Thank you! It’s a very fun bike to cruise around on. That’s awesome your family is in riding distance. Most of mine would require a couple thousand mile ride, so lots of batteries and sunscreen needed haha. Sometimes those Lectric batteries go on sale, might be able to get a good deal in one.
Hey great video I ride the Xp 2.0 and love it and carry an extra battery so my range is always safe no worries Just curious on what camera you use to film this ? And chest mount ?
Thank you! I use a GoPro Hero 10 to film my rides. It’s held up really well. My only complaint is battery life. Because of this, I have a power bank plugged into the camera for all rides as some of them go on for hours. Sometimes I use my Insta360 X3 for 3rd person view shots, but that’s really just for small clips. As for a chest mount, I use this one because it has a quick release. amzn.to/4dTrlhx (Amazon Afilliate link). The quick release comes in handy if I want to stop the ride and get some shots of something else.
I just got my xp 3.0 extended range last week. I’ve been using PAS 2 with peddling. I’m averaging about 22 miles. I thought I would get more out of it. I’m about 175lbs. Still enjoy using it. Just figured I’d get longer distance.
@@Time2MoveOn25 yea, still great bike and enjoying it. Still able to ride over an hour which for me is a good amount of time for riding. If the batteries ever go on sale I’ll buy a spare just to have.
That’s interesting. I was able to crank out about 39 miles in PAS 2&3, mostly 3. But I did the range test on mostly flat ground. I think I was 20lbs lighter though. I may have to redo the test with the XP 3.0 sometime.
Right!? When I first went up it I was like, this bridge is no fun lol. I think it’s designed to not be as intense the whole way up so it’s more accessible.
My fat tyred e bike here in the uk is a 250 watt 48 volt 24amp hrs. The government is looking to up the wattage to maximum 500 watt and a top speed of 20mp.They are looking to do that because everyone who owns an e bike complains that 250 watt is not big enough and a max speed of 15.5 mph is far too slow. I don't know whether it will come into force or not, but I am happy with just the 15.5mph being an older lady. I don't want to go fast. Life goes too fast as it is without whizzing by life on an e bike.
It also has a range of 100 miles on one charge. Thats pedal assist 1 and obviously that's peddling no throttle as they are illegal here in the uk. I have managed 90 miles with one bar remaining.
I get the appeal of this range test and use of flat ground for this, but I notice that 99% of these Lectric ‘reviews’ on YT are only on flat ground; so much of the US geography however include hills, often major hills. I’ll check out your trail ride video next. I have an XP3.0 with long range battery, live in a mountainous area, and so far had have been pretty disappointed in throttle only mode.
Well, I ride a motorcycle so when I ride my electric bicycle, I always wear all my motorcycle gear my jacket helmet gloves, and it’s a full face helmet that is a arai so it definitely should protect my thinking meat. I wouldn’t want that to be ventilated to the outside air.
Yah I typically use pedal most of the time. I’ve had several requests to do a throttle only test so figured, why not haha. Quite fun, just have to fight the natural tendency to pedal. I think my best range with the XP 3.0 Long Range was ~39miles with a mix of mode 3 & 2. Do you have the standard or long range edition?

I think so. Both of those batteries together have more capacity than the single long range battery. If you’re looking to go on a very long ride, you can swap them out and get lots of range. My typical ride doesn’t come anywhere near the mileage that the LR battery offers.
Not a good idea, where will you store the spare, and how will you secure it when you stop for a coffee or a nice meal? There are bikes on the market with far longer range that are designed with 2 secure, locked batteries. If you honestly need more than the XP 3.0 long range offers, why not get one of those?
For that ride it was set as a Class 2 E-bike with top speed set to 20mph. The throttle , even when unlocked, won’t take you above 20mph. You can exceed 20 in class 3 only with pedal assist.
