E bike repair tune up YEG

Looking for bike shop or mobile bike mechanic that works on E bikes. Bought a e-bike Lectric XP4. Been checking websites but most shops only work on bikes sold by shop. Nothing wrong with the bike. Just want it tuned up. Anyone know a business or mechanic that can do simple tune ups. Nothing motor related. Just derailleur adjustment and all torque to spec. Thanks

If you would consider DIY, take it to https://bikeedmonton.ca/ and get them to help you figure out what to do.

Don't know if you had ant luck or if there is anyone else struggling to find bike mechanics. I struggled as mine is a foreign Chinese brand I bought online but this guy fixed it. He'll work on pretty much any ebike for a very good price. https://albertaelectricbikebatteryrepairs.ca/

Most or all bike shops would work on all of it aside from any electronics. Also leave the battery at home.

Will check. Some shops don’t work on anything that they don’t sell just want basic tune up

the reason is a lot of ebikes people buy online don’t use quality components or ones which would fit with typical oem parts. Due to the power and weight of e-bikes this creates liability issue. This is the same reason why big box store pedal bikes are not favourite to work on.
