Ranked #2 in Best Electric Bikes
Lectric XP4 7504.7
6 sources1 derived$575as of Oct 2The Lectric XP4 750 delivers exceptional hill-climbing power and braking performance, with Electric Bike Review noting its responsive motor and BikeRide praising the Star Union hydraulic discs as some of the best in testing. The large 840Wh battery extends range significantly, though Rider Guide observed that the digital display updates only in coarse increments. However, the bike suffers from a rattling battery inside the frame and a folding mechanism where frame halves strike each other, potentially damaging the paint finish. Weighing approximately 74 lbs, it is cumbersome to lift when folded, making it unsuitable for users who need frequent portability or have limited strength.
Strengths
- — The 750W motor delivers high torque (85Nm) and climbs steep hills significantly faster than the base model.
- — The upgraded 17.5Ah battery provides a large capacity of 840Wh, extending range well beyond the standard version.
- — Hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors offer strong stopping power that reviewers describe as all-time performance in testing.
Watch-outs
- — The battery rattles inside the frame during rides, which reviewers find annoying and frustrating.
- — The folding mechanism allows the frame halves to hit each other, potentially damaging the paint finish.
- — At approximately 72 lbs (without battery), the bike is heavy and cumbersome to lift when folded.
