Luna X-1 Enduro FS ebike MANUAL

[EL34]

Yay, Luna just sent me an email saying my X1 is shipping.
The frame color is different than what I ordered, but that is ok

I already have a flat black X1 from 2019
This new one will look cool next to the old one

Check out the video Eric made here

Wow, galaxy black looks phenomenal on the X-1. I love how it’s kinda subtle. Gonna be some happy folks in this batch.

[K442]

Neat! So this is going to be X1#2 - sounds like you're going to be keeping the old one, too? Will be really interested to get your review on riding experience between both bikes. Believe it ultimately came down to your early X1 having a rare version 14.4 firmware which reportedly worked pretty well. You skipped over 14.5 and you new bike should have 14.6 - which also reportedly works well? Looking forward to the review!!

[Kberkel]

Honestly wish they didn’t send that email saying the bikes are built and ready, because now I’m disappointed every day I don’t see that tracking update.

[OBX John]

Does anyone know where I can find a left (brake side) front wheel spacer for my X-1? I've been googling and can't seem to find it anywhere.

[paxtana]

Hit us up we got some, it is probably a somewhat proprietary piece.

I droppedby the showroom in El Segundo yesterday to check out the galaxy gloss black paint, which initially I did not request or desire. I wanted the matte black. When I saw the color in person, I was really surprised at how finished and nice it actually looked. Happy with the “mistake”.

[Adrian Guzman]

I am very glad with the Galaxy paintjob. Cant wait to receive my new bike..... Nice upgrade at the same price.

I am keeping X1 #1 which has these upgraded parts
Carbon wheel set,
700mm carbon bars,
40 tooth chain ring,
ZTTO Eagle one piece cassette,
PEEK gear,
860C display,
160mm crank arms
SRAM Eagle twist shifter
Tubleless with Stan's
Lizard skins chain stay protector

---

I bought the 2nd X1 for guest riders to join me on my long rides

It's hard for me to ride with my buddies who ride normal mountain bikes and gravel bikes
So now I can invite one to come along using X1 #2
They have ridden my E-Fat bike with me before, but that bike is not a mountain bike

X1 #1 was from mid 2019 batch and it has 14.4 firmware
Current X1's have 14.6 firmware

I will definitely be doing a compare of the two bikes
If I like 14.6 better, I will upgrade X1 #1 to 14.6

I have already some parts on hand to upgrade on X1 #2
700mm Carbon bars
SRAM Eagle twist shifter
ZTTO one piece cassette
860C display
40 tooth chain ring
Lizard skins chain stay protector

The new X1's already have the 160mm crank arms and a 38 tooth chain ring
I may install the 40 tooth ring I have, not sure about this yet.
I am not installing the PEEK gear in the new X1
I'll keep the stock wheels on it for now
I'll go tubeless with the stock wheel set

I'll have some new take off parts for sale once I install the new stuff
Aluminum Luna Bars x 2
Stock cassette x 2
Shifters x 2
38 tooth chain ring- not sure about this yet

EL34 - would enjoy being a guest rider & checking out your local trails…

Here in the Pacific Northwest we need to have fenders for our bikes as it is wet and muddy most of the year. Has anyone put fenders on the X1, if so how are they working out. Especially interested in a good fit for a rear fender. Can take the fender off for the Summer months.
Still waiting for the new X1 to ship.

I have had the RRP ProGuard Front Bolt on Mudguard and Rear Zip Tie Installed on Lyrik Fork for 3 months no issues.

When you take your X1's to the all the way to the clouds...

[paxtana]

Is that the grand canyon? Looks beautiful

[joegold100]

Bryce Canyon - Big thanks again to you and the whole Luna Cycle team. We love our X1's!

[tpellaton]

Did you end up picking a fender? I'm in the PNW and looking for a rear fender. I got the mucky nutz fender and it isn't long enough.

I agree, all the fenders you see on amazon are way to short for serious PNW riding. The swing arm lays very low on the x1 for the zap strap on fenders you see on amazon which causes them to be even shorter than on other bikes. I have two rear fenders I am looking at while waiting for the sweet rains to return. One fender is an old one I had on my old Giant stance which had a bbshd on it. I put it on the x1 and took some pictures so you can see it. It actually fits on the X1 better than it did on my old Giant bike and it is very sturdy and has taken a beating for several years now. I also bought another strap on fender to try and I took a picture of it on the bike so you can see the fit. It is just sitting on the swing arm as I did not strap it on. I bought this one because it was longer than the others I saw, however it seems a bit flimsy and may still be to short. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WZPQ2SY?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details I think most of the strap on front fenders on amazon will probably work. Hope this helps.

Got my new X1 - it’s beautiful! One problem: my motor was DOA :-( working right now to get it resolved…) stay tuned! I hear Support is excellent so my fingers are crossed

[paxtana]

If you have not already filed a trouble ticket please do so, we can cross ship a replacement motor

[cr_cline]

Thanks Paxtana - I’ve been in touch (by email) with Gary. Hoping to get my motor swapped ASAP so I can enjoy this beautiful bike

[EL34]

Paxtana is Gary :)

Oh, double thanks again for your help !

This bike is unbelievable. Does everything well and PAS levels are flawless. 15-20 mile challenging rides and still 70% battery remaining! 50 miles so far.

[Kindiftall]

I am over in Chatsworth and we could be one of the only pair of guys riding x1s around here. I ride every other day all around this areas. Check out the ebike club I started on Strava called LA\Ventura County Ebike Adventurers. I have put nearly 1300 miles on my ebike now.

[potluck99]

Took the X-1 on its first ride. Super stoked on how it rode. Definitely confidence boosting for my 50yr old legs.

[Musky]

I have replaced my brake pads about every 800 miles. Went with sintered pads for my first replacement and ready for a second set. Lots of long downhills of over 2000 ft at one time. Anyone using a different pad?

[joecleary]

I'm currently using MTX Gold. I like them, no complaints. Seems like a lot of people here are using these brake pads, too.
