    That's a tidy bike John, and folds down to a nicely compact size. I think for vans with a garage, this would make a great choice. I like the sensible use of the flat riser to carry the second battery, that's got to be a useful addition. Cheers John, another well crafted review. 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦

    Thanks for the review John, I keep looking for the right bike for me but am holding out until our new van is ready before picking one. I have been thinking of hiring one for a few days but it’s ridiculously expensive (Sussex Surrey border). So your reviews are really helping me with knowing what to look for when I do buy one 👍

    Finally, a bike that might actually fit me (4'10")! Very tempting... but am realistic about the fact that I probably wouldn't get the use out of it to warrant the purchase. Still........... YAM xx

    Hey John this looks like what ive been looking for. A compact bike for motorhome with a good range when you want to explore your surroundings. Can you confirm if it can be ridden without additional battery and what sort of range it would have. Also is there much rattle from front suspension. I saw another video where there seemed to be noise from front suspension. Thanks

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  Місяць тому

      Front suspension was fine for me. You don't need the top battery on to ride it but the range all depends on how much you pedal, but with only 1 battery the range will about 60% of what it stated in the video specs

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  11 днів тому +1

      It took a couple of goes when I did it. Turn it off, press the left brake lever whilst powering it on, keep the brake lever pressed for 10 seconds and then let go. Power it off and then when you power it back on it should be unlocked.

    I've quastion about this model of PVY.
    I live in Sweden. Base on Sweden weather specially in winter, is it suitable for here?
    Can I ride this model in winter?
    What's your opinion?

      You can consider PVY Z20 PLUS 1000, which is a 4.0-inch fat tire with 100 Nm of torque, which may better meet your needs.

    Hi John, great review. Can you use the bike with just the battery in the frame if you don't want to have the extra one attached? Thanks again.

      Yes, you can just use the in-frame battery but with a reduced range.

    Very good review. Considering the new e-bike / e-moped / e-scooter legislation brought in here in Ireland a fortnight ago, I have a few questions you may be able to answer…
    Does the throttle still work when the speed is limited to 25km/hour?
    Can you use the walk assist without having the throttle attached to the handlebar?
    Can the full 80nm of torque be used when limited to 25km/h and without having the throttle attached to the handlebar?

    • @GadgetJohn
      @GadgetJohn  Місяць тому +1

      I don't comment on such factors, every car sold far exceeds the road speed limit, the fact people have decided to limit the power & functionality of ebikes is such a waste of time & money, in my view.
