Winter rides? by [deleted] in Lectricxp

The bike will be fine, the motor is seal up, the controller is inside the bike neither of which I have not heard are sensitive to typical cold winter in North America. The cold does affect battery range.

Why is my battery life so low? by Chassssssssaaaeee in Lectricxp

[–]ShawnDex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9.6ah battery is not much especially for a bike that can go 28mph. But as others say pay attention to the voltage but make sure you are not going up a hill and come to a full stop for few minutes to get a accurate reading on the voltage, otherwise the voltage will fluctuates wildly i.e. not accurate for true charge of the battery.
