Today we are going to test some insane piece of electric machinery, I’ll try to daunt this beast.
That is why I need some defensive cloth to be prepared for such a trial.
Well It seems that will do, lets go!
Ok, not so insane, but anyway quite an interesting product! Hi guys as usually its me just a voice
over and you are watching review machines! If you haven’t noticed summer is gone, its already autumn
but we still can catch a bit of a bicycle season and enjoy a nice beautiful day.
AND review this curious bike. I bought this bike at Aliexpress.
I liked this variant cause its is one of the most compact electric bike on the market.
Besides it has decent characteristics and the price is quite affordable.
Well it looks like a good bargain, that is why I bought it!
I’ve already ridden this bike several days and can share with you my first impressions
of this product. Its compact foldable electric bike which is called Fiido. Such tiny bikes are
becoming more and more popular and some people say that they are even better than numerous electric
scooters. Despite it is so tiny its definitely not a kids stuff. Lets look at this bike in detail.
First of all I’d like to say that the bike looks like a good quality product,
it looks worth its money. Pleasant paint, fine welding seams and wires,
everything is assembled neatly. There is a direct drive train, its simple and reliable gear.
Both wheels have mechanical disk brakes. The rear wheel has the electric motor 250 watts power.
The battery and a controller are integrated inside the frame. The lithium battery has
10,4 AH capacity and 36 volts power. By the way the manufacturer calls this bike a moped
that means a bicycle with a motor and pedals. So in fact its really a little moped.
There are small pneumatic tires with plastic disks, the footstep
is on the rear wheel. At the handlebar there is a phone holder with a charger at the left.
Then we see here light buttons, and the headlight is quite decent.
At the right there is an accelerator and the little display with battery indicator.
The handles are made of a pleasant to touch rubber. Even the brake handle has a rubber straps.
The seat is big and soft enough. After several days of riding it is still like new.
Well its high time to test this bike in practice. Firstly we are going to ride in this
awesome autumn park. By the way I was completely sure this tiny bike would be too small for me
and my 190 cm height. I thought I would look like a circus bear on a bicycle
and it wouldn’t be even possible to ride on it. In practice the things turned out to be much better.
Probably I really look like a circus bear, but it is quite comfortable for me to ride this bike.
The seat and the handle bar may be adjusted for any height, and the seat is really soft.
The bike rides so smoothly, and I can say I am really enjoying riding it.
The motor has power 250 watts. It is enough to start moving from a spot and reach the
maximum speed very quickly. But certainly don’t expect some insane acceleration.
It goes quite smoothly as I said. One of the crucial advantage of the bike is different.
The point is that its very compact. But it is still a real bike at the same time
with all its preferences. Lets have a short stop and look how this design works.
As I said the handlebar and seat adjustments have a large travel and can be adjusted almost
to any height. I liked how the handle bar is folded. The folding gear seems to be reliable.
The frame is also folded and it has a durable folding lock.
The battery is integrated inside the frame and can’t be dismantled. And I think it is
the first drawback. Now lets check the time what it takes to completely fold the bike.
Well about 20 seconds – a good result taking into account how small is bike when its folded. The
dimensions in this mode are 65 to 75 cm. In this way it is one of the most compact bicycles at all!
And what about the weight? Lets find out.
18 kilos…not so light but it is still possible to carry it.
As you may see it can easily be put into a trunk of a regular car.
You even don’t need to fold the rear seats. And if you want to go by a public transport it is also
possible. So lets get on another kind of electric transport and do some more tests of our bike!
Now we’ try how it goes on the ground.
And again I really like the performance of this tiny bike. It turns out to be quite swift
especially if you help it with pedals. On the other hand we remember that it doesn’t have any
suspension. So it would be not very comfortable to ride this thing on the forest roads where
there are lot of roots and hummocks. Its much more pleasant to ride on asphalt on this bike.
Speaking about the pedals.
As I said there are no any changing gears it’s a direct drive train.
But the sprocket ratio is appropriate enough, so the speed with the pedals is decent
and you can climb a hill at the same time. And now I can say that this bike
has a certain advantage in comparison with any electric scooter. When the battery is dead it
is almost impossible to ride any electric scooter no matter how luxurious it is. But
you can easily ride this bike even without the battery, and it is not bigger than any scooter.
Now lets see how durable all the gears of the bike especially plastic disks.
I jump downstairs to see if something will be damaged. Everything is fine and we keep going.
Then I like how maneuverable the bike is. You can turn around literally on the spot.
Well and again I can say that to my big surprise I really enjoy riding this tiny moped.
But we still have to do the most important test – maximum speed and range!
Meantime the sun is setting lets hurry up!
While we were charging the battery it’s almost dark outside and so foggy. It
looks like a scene from some horror film not a bike review, doesn’t it?
I start the tracker application to check the range
and now ready to go! Lets check the maximum speed without pedals.
As you can see we have 25 km.h. Not a dragster of course, but the speed
is limited to make it street legal. Well I was riding more than hour to
empty the battery, and I should mention the decent light that helped me greatly at night.
But I don’t want to waste your time, so lets move right to the result of the test.
The result is 28 kms. But I have to say that we didn’t adjusted
the rear brake and it slightly slowed down the idle run and may have lessen the total result.
Anyway I think the maximum range is about 30 kms and that is quite decent to my mind.
Well guys I think all the test are exhausted today. For my own part I liked this tine bike,
but it is interesting what you think of this moped. Please post your comments.
