If you own a Lectric XPeak 2.0 e-bike, it’s possible to modify a ton of aspects of the bike right from the onboard screen, including changing the top speed, adjusting the throttle and pedal assist, controlling the lights, and more. But these settings are not readily understandable from the display alone, so here’s a step-by-step guide to how to change settings on a Lectric e-bike, as well as some suggestions on which settings you should change, and which you definitely shouldn’t.
How to adjust the settings on a Lectric XPeak 2.0 e-bike
Here’s how to access the settings menu of a Lectric XPeak 2.0 e-bike:
Power the bike on.
Hold down the “+” and “-” keys on the controller on the left handlebar for a few seconds, until you see this:

Press the power-on button to toggle between each numbered setting. Use “+” and “-” keys to change their values—but don’t change any settings until you know what you’re changing.
What do the different settings on a Lectric e-bike do?
If you’ve gotten into the settings menu of your Lectric XPeak 2.0, you can see that the settings are labeled P-1 through P-22 with no other information available on screen. That’s not a lot to go on, so here’s what the settings do. (You’ll notice there are a few settings I skip over—I’ll go over that in another section below.)
P1: Changes the brightness of the display screen. There are three settings. “1” is dimmest. “3” is brightest. Default is 2.
P2: Toggles between miles and kilometers. “0” is kilometers. “1” is miles.
P4: Sleep timer: Changes how long it will take for the bike to power off if not used. The default is 10 minutes, but you change it from “0” (which means it never automatically turns off) to 60 minutes.
P6: Tire size: You can change this from 27 to 31. This is used to compute distance and speed, and shouldn’t be changed unless you’ve changed tire size from the default, 29.2.
P8: Speed limit: This sets the bike’s top speed. 32 is a “Class 2” setting, meaning the top speed is 20 mph. 45 is “Class 3,” boosting the speed limit to 28 mph when using pedal assist. The default is 32, or 20 mph, so you’ll need to change this if you want to go faster.
P9: Throttle active toggle: Setting this to 0 means the throttle can be used from a standstill. Setting it to 1 means the throttle can only be used when the bike is moving.
P10: Throttle/pedal assist system toggle: There are three settings here: “0” means the pedal assist is active, but throttle is not. “1” means only the throttle is active, with no pedal assist. “2” means both PAS and throttle are active. The default is 2, which most users will want to use most of the time, but there are cases where it makes sense to change it (see below).
P11: Multiplier toggle: This changes the torque on your bike. “0” is the default, normal torque multiplier. “1” is increased torque multiplier. If you want quicker acceleration, set this to “1,” but don’t change it until you know the bike fairly well—the default multiplier provides plenty of torque. I tested this out and didn’t notice a ton of difference anyway.
P12: Light control: “0” means “no light icon on the display means the front and rear lights are OFF. When the light icon is on, the front and rear lights are ON.” Changing this to “1” means “The front and rear lights are flashing right away when bike is on. The icon on the display for light is flashing at the same rate as front and rear lights.” When you turn the light on in setting one, you’ll see an icon on the display screen with no flashing.
P13: Walk mode speed: “0” sets the walk mode speed to 3mph. “1” is a slightly brisker 3.7 mph.
P16: Odometer reset: Hold the “+” for 5 seconds to reset the odometer to “0.”
P20: Walk mode toggle: setting this to “0” disables walk mode. Setting this to “1” enables it. (To turn on walk mode, hold down the “-” button on the controller. If enabled, your bike will move forward at the speed you set on P13.)
P22: Assistance level: “0” limits the pedal assist to 9mph if you’re on pedal assist level 1 and 15 mph if you’re on pedal assist level 2. The same “speed limit” applies to the throttle. “1” means the pedal assist is not speed limited on pedal assist levels 1 and 2, but the throttle is speed limited. “2” means there is no speed-limit on pedal assist or throttle, no matter what pedal assist level you’re in. (Of course the bike’s overall speed limit of either 20mph or 28mph still applies.)
Which settings should you change on an XPeak 2.0?
The setting that most users will be concerned with is P8, the speed limit of the bike. The default is a 20 mph speed limit that you can reach with either pedal assist or throttle, but you may want to boost it to 28 (assuming that a class 3 e-bike is legal in your local area and you’re experienced enough to handle the extra speed.) This setting means the throttle or pedal assist will take you to 20 mph, then the throttle will cut off but you can use pedal assist to go up to 28 mph. There is no setting to use throttle control to go over 20 mph.
Another setting to consider is P9, the throttle active toggle. The default setting means that the throttle can be activated from a standstill, but you might want to change it so the throttle can only work if the bike is in motion. If you accidentally hit the thumb throttle a lot, especially when walking your bike, this prevents your bike “jumping forward.”
P10 is another useful setting for some situations. In some places, it’s not legal to ride a “class 2” e-bike, meaning one that has throttle control. This setting disables the throttle but allows the pedal assist, transforming your class 2 bike into a class 1.
What about the rest of the settings?
The Lectric XPeak 2.0 has 22 total settings that can be changed from the dashboard, but only 13 are listed above. I looked into it, and the nine “secret” settings on Lectric bikes are less exciting than I’d hoped. They’re mostly settings that allow different models of bikes to use the same computer, so they change things like the voltage level of the battery and the magnet type. Do not change these settings; as far as I can tell, there’s nothing to be gained from doing so. If you accidentally alter these somehow and you don’t know the correct setting, do not ride the bike until you’ve spoken to someone at Lectric who can help you restore the proper values.
“I messed up the settings on my Lectric XPeak 2.0! How can I fix it?”
Sadly, there is no “return to factory default” setting on Lectric’s controller. To get your e-bike back to how it was, you can use the manual to see the default number for each setting, or contact the company for extra help.
