11 reasons not to buy

The slow 2A charger included with the 13Ah and 26Ah builds means long charging times.
Reviewers complain of discomfort over bumpy roads, especially with a loaded rack.
The XPedition 2.0 doesn’t have a bell or horn.
The throttle acceleration feels abrupt at higher PAS levels, according to a tester.
The cockpit is too cramped for riders over 6’2”, according to a reviewer, despite being rated for up to 6'5".
One expert says the fluctuating battery indicator causes range anxiety.
Most reviewers find the stock saddle uncomfortable.
Testers say the headlight is dim, and it rattles against the front fender.

Bottom line

Lectric’s XPedition 2.0 is a longtail cargo e-bike available in three builds: 13Ah, 26Ah, or 35Ah. Upgrades over the previous version include a torque sensor, 50mm suspension fork, longer frame and rack, and 8-speed Shimano Altus drivetrain, but the price is the same. The responsive pedal assist, powerful motor, range, and carrying capacity impress. Some find the ride uncomfortable over bumpy pavement and the kickstand difficult to use. One tester reports play in the quick-release pedals and a sticky suspension seatpost. Experts agree the XPedition 2.0 is among the best budget-friendly cargo e-bikes.
