This is my fourth e-bike and my second Fiido. This is by far the best of them, though still not perfect, I’ve had to change handlebars, saddle and pedals. To get it closer to being the bike I need it to be. But it’s very stable, extremely fast and comfortable. Still working out the actual range it can do on a full charge in normal mode. Not quite what is advertised, but should be OK.
Excellent customer service as always from Electric Kicks - Juan is a legend!
I really like this bike and have zero complaints about the excellent service from Electric kicks, the only small complaint about the bike is it's climbing capabilities, i have fitted a megarange freewheel and it has given me extra range uphill, i have managed to get 50 to 60 km's in a hilly area on tour mode which is pretty good, with a few tweeks i have the bike down to 19kg including the battery! Even my 13 year old son thinks it looks very cool. All in all a very pleasant experience dealing with these guys.
Easy to order, efficient delivery. Scooter scooting very well. Excellent
They fit perfectly and easy install. They are lightweight and look an integrated part of the bike. It will be so much nicer cycling in the wet weather and not having water sprayed on my back!
I upgraded from the F40A and love the shock absorbers. Makes such a difference. Also very happy with the range.
Excellent delivery and follow up service 👍
Great light hand pump works amazingly. easy to store and functions work great
Received my bike recently and I’m delighted with it. It’s all it’s advertised to be and certainly meets my requirements.
Great product and would highly recommend this bike!
The C11 has all the features I need. Easy to assemble, and very nice to ride. Great value for a very attractive price.
I am extremely happy with my E-Gravel. I was really hesitant about leaving my flat bar road bike behind and biting the bullet. But I was starting to struggle on long hilly rides. I've had three 35km rides now, and love the way that the pedal assist kicks in when I've needed it. I've generally been riding on eco mode because I still want to get a good workout, and it feels like a really natural ride. And being really light weight helps together with the 9 speed gearing. I've attached my extension bars and clipless pedals and it rides so smoothly. Love this bike.
I am really enjoying riding the Soltera 2.5. Great handling, excellent power delivery and comfortable riding position.
The bike is great overall. I had a small folding 250w electric one from Leitner and the speed was seriously compromised.
Here are the good bits:
- goes fast! 40km/h, which is actually too fast when cycling on tree-lined cycle lanes with several cars in/out junctions. Ride responsibly.
- good position seat/handle bars angle
- the battery seems to last more than a week for my work commutes, but this may deteriorate with time.
- 7 gears (I only use the top one for danger free straight lines stretched and reach high speed... it goes!)
- brake light
- off the light go with button is adequate
- you can ride it with flat battery easily (my previous bike had so much resistance! no free pedalling when the battery was flat)
The would be good to have:
- the handle grip diameter/thickness is too small for my (average) hands, so inadequate for size and padding/comfort
The very bad (in my opinion)
- the worst and very annoying thing is that the battery is not "locked"/turned off by the key, only by pressing a button on the battery. The key is only to remove the battery from the bike. So, say you ride, and stop for a quick purchase of a baguette at the bakery, you get off the bike and press the button to turn the battery off and walk away...BUT anyone can steel the bike and RIDE AWAY FAST because they can activate the battery without the key! This seems like a massive oversight/bad design! so, if you get off the bike for a quick stop, you need to locked it with your chain or locking device. So annoying!
- also, it is advertised as a 500w MOTOR, and mine says 250w printed on the motor! I questioned this with Electrix and they vouch it is a 500w motor. Although the final gear is fast, I question if it is really a 500w motor as the torque figure aligns with all other 250w motors. I am unconvinced with their questionable reply that it is the details they get from Fiido.com website, as the Fiido websites show a motor with 500w written on it! I wish I could get my motor tested. The bike is good but I want to pay for what is advertised.
Great little pump that works very well. Annoying bit is that you need to plug the tube back in to power it off, so you have to remove the adaptor, and risk losing it as either adaptors are not attached to the main body! weird oversight.
oh, and don't pay $99 by adding it to your cart, I didn't add it and got it free anyway. May have been a special one-off, still it was a nice surprise. and you can find it for $50 everywhere else.
This is such a great bike I was so happy with it when assembled which was effortless I ordered another a week later, the only thing is it did not come with a adapter to plug the Wall
The panniers are a good size and well made. They are water proof and match my Level 2 bike well. You do need to make sure you fit them the right way round otherwise you catch your heel on the bags as you cycle. You also need them as far back as possible on the rack. The spring loaded clips are not well positioned and it is trial and error which part of the carrier you fit them to. They also do not align to miss the up right parts of the carrier. The clips themselves tend to spring open.
I bought a Aventure .2 step through E-bike for my wife. She absolutely loves this bike. We pre- ordered this bike, the team at Electric Kicks kept us informed at all times on our order. The bike was well packed for its trip to WA, and very easy to put together. Thank you for your service.
The Sinch 2.5 is a great bike; it has plenty of power to get you up hills and the wide tires are great to avoid getting caught in tram tracks. I have replaced the seat post with a suspension one to absorb the numerous bumps on my urban ride. I highly recommend the Sinch 2.5 as an effective commute to and from work.
