As the proud owner of Hero Lectro C5i and using it for over six months I have found some tricks to use it and I would like to describe this and let the user know it and check whether it is applicable on your electronic cycle. After riding it for over nine kilometers to and from my office daily as I have found some of the most unique attributes with Hero Lectro C5i electronic bicycle.
Dynamic seat base:
At first, I found the seat very uncomfortable but with due course of time I realized that it is somewhat dynamic in nature and it does provide some of the most dynamic feeling of safety with it. Suppose you put a sudden break then the seat would tilted slightly forward so that you can be lower and the chance of accident possibility is lesser as your legs move to downwards and touch the ground and in this way, it acts as a protective form of riding.
Tightened Front disc brake:
It is important to tighten the front disc brake cable so that when you put sudden break into it then it will not pull you down. If cables of the front disc brake become tighten then for sure when you use break then it will not put all of a sudden front brake but part of it as the rest part of the break will not work as it becomes so tight with it and that stops from you from falling from electronic bicycle.
Regularly check front and rear brakes:
Electronic bicycles are not similar to manual bicycles. It goes fast and for this maintenance of front and rear brakes and especially the rear brakes is a must as from time to time it removes from its wiring and you need to check it before venturing into driving. It is a must work and you need to check it from time to time as with Hero Lectro C5i you will not find disc break at the rear wheel or rear brake is not the disc brake.
It is important to always before going for a ride tilt the rear wheel with the help of cycle stand and then switched on motor and bike and then use accelerator to see wheel is moving or not and then put the rear break while the rear wheel is up in the air to see what is condition of rear brake. If it is loose then tight it with the tools you receive with bicycle.
Check cycle pressure and keep double cyclinder cycle pressure pump with you:
As there is no tube less tyre shipped with Hero Lectro C5i and to patch the bicycle you need to have double cyclinder pump with you as you need to reach to customary traditional manual bicycle shops and from there the traditional pumps will not work with the special tube that is attached with the Hero Lectro C5i. Even if you reach to patch the tube in case of leaks the traditional bicycle shop owners pump will not work correctly with you as it will not able to put the air into tube of yours electronic bike as it is not compatible and for this you do need a two cyclinder pumps and if it is not there then the cycle mechanic will not able to find the leakage points in the tube as the mechanic will not be able to put the air into tube so that when he dips it into water and to find out the air bubbles from it as the leakage points the air should be moving out and inside of water there will be air bubbles and without putting air into it you cannot find leakage points at all. For this you need to have double cylinder air pressure pump always with you so that when the you face these problems you can air the leakage tube and then cycle mechanic can check location of air coming out from it.
Problems found with Hero Lectro Android app:
Hero Lectro has an android app and it is free to use and by enabling Bluetooth you can easily connect the app with yours hero Lectro electronic bicycle and it will work such as speedometer and other forms of relevant informations such as that of highest and the lowest speed of the electronic bicycle and then you can find the how much carbon footprints you have been saving with it as well as some of other informations such as calories saved and other. With it you can automatically switched on the light,. Start and the stop the motor at the first instance and some other functions such as slow mode and changing to other relevant modes with ease or touch inside of the applications.
When you switched on motor with the app and all of a sudden if you are on motor only mode then it will move forward with it and this time it will becomes difficult for you to control it as it will move forward and all of the sudden this becomes difficult and if you are just at the sit and not prepared then you can fall back on the ground with it. Then you will not find the time to recover and might fall and might find some wounds as the result of it and for this it is important to use the app and especially the applications control of electronic bicycle as it can suddenly pull you down as you are not prepared at this juncture as you will be using phone during this time and not the control of electronic bicycle and that might provide difficulties for you to cope with it.
So while using the app it is good to connect with bicycle but it is not advisable to control all of its functions with it as it can be some what difficult for you to manage at the first instance as some functions such as enabling the light through apps as well as stopping of motor with it can be used but if you want to turn on the motor then for sure you should be in a state where you will be able to control bike while the switching on of the function of button.
