Our Lectric XP Lite 3 video brings together Lectric's published specifications and Electric Bike Report's account of the belt Long-Range model. The manufacturer claims and independent measurements below are attributed separately: the ride-test figures come from John S. Bozick's Electric Bike Report review dated October 27, 2026, not from ElectricBikes.com testing.

What Lectric lists

Per Lectric, the XP Lite 3 has a 300W rear-hub motor, with 819W peak output and 28 Nm of torque. Lectric lists Class 1 and Class 2 operation, with assistance up to 20 mph, and claims a weight of 49 lb.

Lectric claims up to 80 miles of range with the Long-Range battery. The manufacturer lists a Gates Carbon belt on the top trim, a 275 lb payload capacity, and a rider-height range of 4'8"–6'2". Lectric also lists certification to UL 2849. These are manufacturer specifications, rather than measurements made for this article.

What Electric Bike Report measured

In Bozick's review, Electric Bike Report weighed the belt Long-Range model at 53 lb. Using its 672 Wh battery, Electric Bike Report recorded about 44.5 miles in Eco with power-only mode and about 25.8 miles in Turbo. Those are the review's reported results, separate from Lectric's maximum-range claim.

On the Devil's Backbone climb, Electric Bike Report reported 3 minutes 11 seconds using the throttle and 2 minutes 17 seconds with pedal assist. In its braking test, Electric Bike Report measured a stop from 20 mph to zero in 19 feet 3 inches.

The catches

Electric Bike Report also noted two drawbacks: the key must remain in place while riding, and the battery rattled. These observations belong to its review of the belt Long-Range model, alongside the measurements above.
