Summary of Reviews

13 reasons to buy
- Experts say the XPeak offers unrivaled value.
- Testers are amazed to see the high-quality RST Renegade fork on such a cheap bike.
- Reviewers say the smooth assistance of Lectric’s PWR motor tuning makes riding trails easier than on other cadence-sensor bikes.
- The XPeak is available in a step-over (riders from 5’7” to 6’5”) or step-through (5’2” - 6’3”) build.
- UL 2849 (battery) and ISO 4210-10 (e-MTB) certification attest to the bike’s safety and reliability.
- The hydraulic brakes with 180mm rotors offer “excellent braking power.”
- A thru-axle up front and quick motor disconnect out back make it easier to remove the wheels.
- Reviewers say the 750W motor easily powers the XPeak up steep climbs.
- The quick-release pedals make storage and transport easier.
- Experts agree the XPeak handles loose dirt, chunky terrain, and rocky climbs well.
- The puncture-resistant Chaoyang tires come with slime pre-installed.
- According to experts, the tires have “really good” traction on dirt and over rocks.
- The XPeak arrives almost complete. Final assembly requires no tools.
3 reasons not to buy

- An expert says the thumb shifter can be hard to reach.
- A reviewer complains that the grips move around on the bars.
Bottom line
Lectric’s XPeak is an entry-level fat-tire electric mountain bike with an 80mm suspension fork, a 750W motor, and chunky Chaoyang tires. Its off-road competence, smooth power, and “excellent” brakes earn praise. Experts are surprised to see the relatively pricey RST fork on a bike at this price point, though the fork might need some fine-tuning. Testers agree the thumb-shifter doesn’t suit this bike, and the grips are sub-par. However, reviewers are convinced the “really freaking fun” Lectric XPeak offers unrivaled value at a price point other brands might struggle to meet.
