Yes I have. That was the first thing I did after putting on the handlebars and wheel. Its fine when I ride without the batteries. I have lifted the bike and spun the wheels to check for resistance.
Again, I think it is because I get used to the extra help of the motor... and it freaking heavy!!
I done ever remember riding a bike that weighed 87 pounds before. Add my 190 and that is a good mass to get up the hills.
I did hit 50MPH going down though.... all the time I was thinking are these tiny rubber pads going to melt if I try to stop!? I never checked.
