    I am in the process of purchasing Lectric XP.
    Besides all the gadgets, what's your opinion about the bike itself?
    Also, I really like the horn sound from the speaker.
    How does it work?
    I mean the speaker is just a speaker.
    It doesn't have any apps and stuff.
    What device makes that sound, besides the speaker of course?
    Is that the small controller you mentioned?
    Where did you buy and what is the brand name?

    • @Marlon_Torres
      @Marlon_Torres  3 года назад +1

      Andrey, the bike is solid as a tank and it works great. I personally have not complaints because both of my XPs are working without any issues. I think this bike is a great value, if you're looking to get into ebikes and not spending a lot of money, this is tough to beat. In regards to the speaker, it's not just a speaker. The speakers also has FM Radio, has micro sd card slot if you want to load music that way, and it works great when in speaker mode and riding. There is no app, everything is controlled with the speaker itself and/or the remote that is included. It has the built in bell or horn option. It's very portable and for a speaker this size it sounds great. The links to all the accessories are in the description of the is video above. I hope that helps! Thanks for stopping by!

    We are so sorry for the shipping damage to your shocks. The damage will not affect the integrity of the forks or affect the suspension at all. With that, we have a couple of options: we can refund you up to $50, or order you a free accessory up to $50.
    We can also replace the fork, but we need you to send us your damaged fork back first, and our warehouse has been backed up and is about 2-3 weeks behind. We would also have made the replacement or take it into a bike shop. This may mean it could be another month before you are able to ride again.
    Let us know which you would prefer! Again, the dent will not affect your ride at all, but it is noticeable, and we can replace the forks for you if that is the direction you want to go.
    Best,
    Joseph

    First thing you Need, Mirror. Save your life important. Helmet, even a cheap one is better than nothing.

    I didnt know there was a law to wear helmets on a bike .. Is this new law, or a law with just electric bikes?

      I don't know, that really depends on where you live. In Florida we have no helmet law. I wear one for my own safety though.
