While building this bike I made quite a few 3d printed parts
Overall the spec of this bike is:
Weight: 24.8kg without lock attached to the bike
Battery capacity: 840Wh
Motor power: 750W with peak power of ~1100W, but can be set to anything, in 95% cases I use 300W mode I created
Top speed: 54kmh on flat and 60kmh with tailwind, limiting factor is gearing , not the motor itself
Range: 80-120km, 80km is "highway" with cruising at about 35-40kmh, 120km is city riding + legs , where your average speed is about 20kmh
It has folding handlebar, frame and pedals, so can be easily stored or lifted into car's boot.
I would not recommend building exactly that bike as it requires access to 3d printer, fusion 360 knowledge and desire to create things, but this video was mostly to demonstrate that if want to - you can make your own bike, its not terribly hard , especially if the bike you want wont fold and you do not care about its size and weight. If you have donor frame and wheels it will even be more budget friendly than buying anything from the store and unlike companies that try to cut costs - you control all the parts so it will be as good as you want it to be.

However when I powered it on today morning there is no power in the bike and then I plugged it with the charger and the charger is showing green sign means not charging. Can you please help me with this issue. Thanks in Advance.

      Hello, well , that depends if it does anything to your bicycle , if it rides as normal , i would not worry about it. I have the bike but i do not ride it all that much, i think the battery icon been lighten up when motor produce electricity when moved backwards or for a short time when stop accelerating and the clutch inside motor still did not disengage. But this is very hard to judge and help like that, sorry.

    I've been in a constant email battle with this company's after sales, as the bike arrived damaged and was couldn't be ridden. I was offered $20 even though I explained the repair would cost with car hire $90. After more emails I was offered $50 it's been over a week and this has still not arrived. Offered another $10 for the 'lateness', this still doesn't cover the cost of repairing the damage the bike had when I recieved it. To make matters even worse I am a repeat customer bought this bike to replace one stolen. I'm putting this complaint to my credit card company as they even threatened that if I sent bike back I would be responsible for any damage on return. So they won't take responsibility if they send a damaged product but expect me to take responsibility if it's damaged on return. I couldn't make this up. BE AWARE!!!

      All things considered - yes, as of right now there are better options from companies that have better history , when i bought it ,it was pretty much the only adequate choice if you want decentish , small ebike. What i liked about it is that everything (except for the fork, it is also standard but and old one ) is dead common and easy to swap if needed. Im planning to turn it into 3 wheel cargo bike this year because of it, its frame should fit nicely for that purpose , possibly will have to swap motor wheel as well , i want both my bikes to use 48volt system so i could use 2 batteries for long journeys :) Could be fun. But yes - bike is flimsy and has issues, fixable issues but issues non the less

    I guess I wasn't clear with the goal I had in mind with this video. My goal was to show my story and share some info about the project I had. I wasn't sure and took my chances and I absolutely love the end result. I think e-bikes are the future and not the EV (at least for now) , you can charge them at home with no risk, they are affordable and efficient. They improve your health and reduce traffic jams, 1 electric car can be turned into 100 ebikes. Technology is fascinating. I also wanted to show that bicycle word is highly adjustable, you can match parts that otherwise considered "unmatchable". I love bicycles and would like to help others who want to step into this world :) Ask me any questions and I will try to answer them

      it might be the same issue as displayed here, first try pedal assist mode , pedal a bit , if motor works then it is indeed the throttle. But first check all the cable connections to the brain box that is stored inside the frame , inside part that has rear wheel attached to it. Just make sure you marked which way the connection plate is attached to it (it can be connected upside down and cause short circuit) , if all cables are fine , nothing works , I guess you can start messing around with throttle as in this video

    • @Alexander_Of_Pines
      @Alexander_Of_Pines 3 роки тому

      Hello, not familiar with D1 , but I guess as everything with this bike and probably others from Fiido - check the most obvious ones first - if the cables are properly connected , unplug-plug related connectors. Just make sure you remember how it was before, take pictures. As with D2 the battery connection plates can be assembled both ways (right and, mirrored, wrong) which would cause short circuit and burn something along the way. Then I guess check if the key-ignition actually works etc. Maybe others can help more, good luck.

      @Alexander_Of_Pines 3 роки тому

      Hello, In theory - yes, this bike has very standard dimensions , maybe the middle stand , which supports the bike while folded would cause troubles, but overall I think that is doable. The thing is that top speed might be low or "low" (about 25-32kmh), you might would want to swap the rear wheel I guess to not carry extra 2-3kg, and that motor would require a much bigger battery ( if you go for 750W motor ) , people on the internet say battery capacity should ideally at least match motor wattage , so 750Wh battery for 750W motor, Fiido stock battery is 280Wh at best. Overall I thought about it but frame battery in DIY kits is just too long and bike frame is too short for it. There are "Frog" batteries that clamp to seatpost, that should work tho. Good luck

    Hi Alexander, great video and design! Just wanted to ask you where did you get the 64:1 gear ratio? The ratio of only one fan is 1+(57/15) = 4.8, where the number of teeth on sun gear is 15 and the number of teeth on ring gear is 57. My 3d printed version shows me the same thing. So the ratio of two planetary gearboxes should be 4.8^2 = 23.04. Or am I missing something? Just a thought, not that it matters much!

    • @Alexander_Of_Pines
      @Alexander_Of_Pines 3 роки тому

      Hi, the phase line faulty according to the list then huh... My shallow knowledge tells me that "phase" is a type of positioning measurement part of the motor , so it knows where the rotor of the motor is and what coils to activate. Kind of explains it why it moves a little bit, just to confirm I guess you can somehow put rear motor in the air, use throttle a little bit and rotate wheel with other had (carefully tho, I don't want to be responsible for snapped fingers :P ) , probably wheel should rotate a bit or properly every portion of rotation. TLDR: If wiring was repaired, check it again, probably what controller says with 7 flashes is "I cannot see where the motor's rotors is ! I'm afraid i will activate wrong coils (and make wheel slow down/stop or rotate backwards) , so I will just give up completely" There are power wires going to the motor and then some thin ones for phases , like 3+4 or something, check those guys out. Hope this brings any help to your problem :)

    • @Alexander_Of_Pines
      @Alexander_Of_Pines 3 роки тому

      Hello , its probably undervoltage protection and battery shutdown. If you do it but slowly and it works and only restarts when you go full throttle from stand still - im 98% sure its exactly that. Thats absolutely normal and safety measure , as battery state of charge decreases , so is the performance. This can only be fixed with beefier battery with larger amount of cells , so that load is shared more evenly among them. Overall try not to do that as it hurts the battery afaik. Battery likes to be within 20 and 80 percent of its capacity :) Safe riding

      @@b5ktas okey, but i still think it's somewhat normal, mine learned how to never reach undervoltage and it just "accelerates" very slowly until there is only noise and nothing else. I only got undervoltage protection once on very first day with this bike. So dunno, if you compare mine and yours bike then its an issue , if we just look at it as whole, its not. The bars near throttle are hardware tied to battery voltage with resistors or something (im not great at it) , I checked it when i tried to fix the throttle as in this video , so it shows just 1 to 1 how battery feels. It shows 4 bars , so about 40 volts you twist it and motor puts pressure on battery lowering the voltage to 32 or whatever it is and bars drop to 2. In my case if i have 2 bars with no load it pretty much means i have like 1-3 kilometers left. If bike barely moves you just before it restarts, I would say - its just battery is completely depleeted

      Hi, thats something new... I would assume it is when motor tries to rotate but cannot due to ...something ...like going steep uphill or brakes locked... so instead of rotating motor coils build a lot of heat, maybe that what they meant... But I guess your rear wheel rotates freely, maybe you can try lifting rear wheel and twist the throttle, will it rotate or not during 0 load? Overall no one asked this question before so there is no ready solution for that yet. Try with wheel in the air and maybe different modes (pedal assist and throttle) and maybe that show something. I must say im in no way professional electrician , just thinking out loud for what I heard/read about motors in general

    Thanks for the video! I bought a D1 a little over a year ago. Mine was bought used but looked new. The seller said it was a year old and only used it once. I believe him because he was about 2 meters tall. And was way to tall for it. I would agree with everything in your review on fiido. If I were u I would check your battery. I ride mine 9 km each way for work every day in all weather. Only using the full electric mode. I don’t have a problem with my battery even in minus temperatures. I have 2 comments about the battery though. 1) the battery meter on the handlebars is accurate for pedal assist, but once you change to full electric mode the meter drops quickly after half of the battery is used. 2) I’ve noticed the farther u drive in a trip the faster the battery will drain. If I drive 5km trips I get about 30 km before the battery dies. When I drive 10 km trips, I get just over 20 km. This is full electric. Of course hills will burn more battery and how much throttle u give too.

      Thank you :) glad to hear its all good with your bike , i might have battery problem indeed :(, need to check total range at some point again. I dont really want to invest into new battery as Im building new bike tho , so lets see how it goes.

      Your observation is correct. Because your bike shares the same Battery Management System as ordinary e-scooter without pedals. My e-scooter consumes battery power very fast should I set it to the fastest "sport" mode at 25 km/hr with range of 13 kilometers. However, I can go much better range at 19 kilometers if I set to the next slower mode at 15 km/hr. The capacity of battery on my e-scooter is 5.2 AmpHr.

    Its not your video stuttering , its me stuttering :) But I don't care and neither should you :) English is not my first language and was tired after work that day, my apologies for cringy phrases :) Helpful stuff in description! TL DW + its cheap + it somewhat works + all points to which parts of the bike are bolted on are as standard as it can get, making it possible to swap everything if needed, except fork. + overall comfortable ride with air suspension installed + fits everywhere, very compact folded or not + stealthy looking +/- punchy motor up until 20 or so km/h , power goes down rapidly between 20-25km/h and goes down even further at 25-30km/h + throttle exists + decent tires - some parts are way too cheap and pure crap, like brakes, steering stem/column, light, throttle etc. - low range at about 25 kilometres which goes down to 10 at 0C degrees (all WHILE pedaling) - hard to pedal when battery is depleted (I have single speed) due to tall gearing and low cadence - poor fork to stem connection design, wobbles quite a bit - charging port is hard to get used to , but after 10 months I can do it with my eyes closed - battery cannot be removed in seconds like other bicycles - very hard to take off back wheel , pray to all the gods to not have flat with it :) (motor wheel is permanently soldered to controller power panel and cable is rather short) - wheels are set in place via nuts, so no quick release (again, this contributes to point above) -/+ the kickstand is not the best, bicycle is standing too upright, but I used wood clamp and bended it by 15 degrees or so and now its SO MUCH MORE stable its amazing - pedal assist cannot be applied to real life, it is annoying to use, only good for hill climbing maybe - no speedometer or odometer - poor front light illumination power, barely helps at night

      this is brake sensor error, bicycle thinks that you pressing on brake lever all the time or sensor is malfunctioning, both front and rear brakes are connected to one port near controller box. Check cables that come from brake levers, check if anything make brake lever be pressed, even slightly. The sensor in brake lever is just a button that lever itself press against. hope that helps, issue is probably rather small, good luck :)

      I did not relocate the sensor, I placed where it should have been from the beginning, make sure it stays deep inside this deep square tunnel that I illustrated. The magnet is inside part that you twist it seems and as you twist it, magnet goes along the sensor if sensor is not in the right place I assume it wont give same effect. Do you still get error message tho? if yes than something is not right with sensor position

      Hey, well "more than 10" can be any number (or it might not be more than 10 to begin with), I would suggest to count them precisely, then we can try to figure it out. As for now , "more than 10" is 11, which is overvoltage protection, this kicks in when battery is about to get changed more than it supposed to be, it can be issue with battery management system or charger itself or batteries, and this requires to have voltage measurement tool of some sort to verify. I'm just a regular owner as you are so can help within my field of knowledge

      @@arafatsahidi9820 sorry missed your message somehow, sometimes I do not really get notifications, and this last message somehow is inbefore mine :) Anyway, 3 flashes is something new, hmmmmm, lets try decipher chinese :) . Judging from my poor knowledge dc is Direct Current , which is the current type that is used in batteries (the only part of the bicycle to use it). Point....maybe they mean the battery controller (small box that is located in front part of the bike where battery is) or battery output is wierd. Abnormal usually means as I understood it - they have set an amount that part of the bike should report, for example the throttle issue I have here is abnormal because voltage output from it should be (if I remember correctly) more than 1 and less than 5 and 1.5 or something when on start, I had like 3 on start = abnormal. So I guess it means voltage current from the battery or into the battery is not what it should be within spec, to insure no further damage goes into bike - shut battery usage. If you dont want to mess with it or you lack skill, I assume you might want to take out everything that is in front part of the bike, so battery, its controller and battery charger and take it to some IT repair shop and ask them whats going on or maybe take the bike as whole so they can see the error. Hope that will help you in some way. Good luck :)

      @Alexander_Of_Pines 4 роки тому

      hey, if you have voltage meter you can check the results of your fixes , as far as i understood , damn I dont remember precisely but it should be like 1.8 volts on our bike and then you twist it and it goes to 3.8 or something. I tested it by unplugging throttle connector and taking it out of the bike and connectint the battery to the brains by unscrewing it and connecting it while bike is folded (BUT BE CAREFUL doing that! I marked those connection plates with screwdriver so i could see where is "up" and "down" on it. TLDR is, afaik, when you turn the key it does selfcheck , if it does not passes it it will flash those errors until you restart it , probably position is incorrect or inverted, and voltage is below/above nominal , try to flip the sensor that you glued or push it deeper inside or something . You can disassemble the throttle and push sensor back and forth and while holding at new postion turn bike on and off and try to figure out if there is position that it wont flash, once you found it , glue it together and it should be good , that way it wont require much disassembly or voltage meter tools, but knowing voltage would show you exactly whats going on. Here is a bit of info about voltage in the thing. www.electricscooterparts.com/throttletestingguide.html#:~:text=The%20output%20Voltage%20can%20be,and%20the%20throttle%20is%20good.
