Wow, I was really impressed by the practicality of the mods you've done to your bike, that bike is amazing!
Thanks! Appreciate it.
I come back to this video every time I do an upgrade. Was here for switching out the bars last time. This time, I'm going tubeless. 💪
Well, that's awesome. It's nice knowing it actually helps people.
That is a beast set up man. Well done to ya.
Thanks!
Your mods look killer btw, dude. That thing looks like a beast.
Thanks!
Great upgrades and step by step vid. 👍
Thanks!
Hey, just a tip. If you add timestamps and a description next to them, you can chapter your videos. Great for videos like this where I'm interested in a specific mod and can skip to it.
0:00 Intro
0:45 Tires & Gears
etc
UA-cam used to do automatic chapters. I miss that. But you're right, I need to do that.
That looks great. I also went with one of the Bucklos forks (after seeing the extensive testing done on the Wolftick channel.) But I took the opportunity and switched to sealed bearings. This was on a Fiido M1.
Thanks! Good call on the sealed bearings.
Mate - looks wicked - I put BMX bars on my EP2 and a 'light bar' for extra lights - I just LOVE how it looks! Your bars look the nuts. The forks are brill - thats my next project - I've had my EP for nearly a year - 2000 miles plus - it's cheap as chips component wise - so these upgrades are well worth it. I'd love to change the motor for a bafaang - my motor is horribly noisy (currently doing battle withe Engwe customer 'support' but don't hold out much hope!) but I'm not sure if the baf' would be a straight swap into the wheel. Hey ho. Oh - and ignore the haters - you've put your mark on your bike and it's awesome!
Thanks! I bet the light bar looks sweet. 2000 miles in a year, dang, that's a good amount. I think the bafang has a different connector style, but there might be adapters. I haven't looked into it. Thanks for watching!
Dude thank you for this video I need to fix my stock stem. I broke a left wexling handlebar grip and I’m getting an error 25 rn. Hopefully I can fix the bit of space in between the stem section and such. I wanna apply the upgrades but want to try to fix the stock fork but your video has shown the stock for really is a pos and gets clogged easy with dirt and crud. Also that new stem looks so much more sturdy then the original I really want all these upgrades just scared of what it will do to portability. Regardless these are nescarry and almost needed for my bike to function actually properly. Might even need some new break pads
Glad it helps! Hopefully your repairs go well, that's a bummer. It doesn't hurt portability too much. I think it was well worth the trade off.
Great looking bike.
Thanks!
Really great job on the upgrades, I went for the bmx style handle bars and bought a large bar light from ali express and a melian Cute eye back light which has a Bluetooth indicator opinion. Currently looking at new tyres for my engwe pro, any thoughts on slick tyres v knobby ones ? I ride mostly on tarmac. Kind regards from Ireland btw
Thanks! It looks good with bmx handles, I have seen some like that. I bet you would be fine with slicks or knobby on tarmac. Slicks would give a smoother ride.
amazing tune up of this bike, i got it recently and i realized how vulnerable the joint for folding the bike is in the rain i wouldnt call it water proof at all so here is my question what is that thing on your frame covering the entire thing up and did you also add something from the bottom where the cables go inside the frame ? there is a big hole too, one last question how did you change the seat i just got new one but after removing it i realized i have no idea how to take off the last piece of metal from the tube
Thanks. It's a battery cover I got it from Amazon but I had to modify it a bit. I had to shorten the velcro so it stops at the hinge. Really easy to do, I just cut off the extra velcro and stitched the end so it doesn't unravel.
amzn.to/3NHkey5
I did not plug the bottom because I'm worried about trapping water and dirt it there. And the seat post clamps to the seat. Should see a bolt you'll need to loosen.
Great video buddy! I have the exact same fork on my EP-2 Pro with a 7" Headlight and was actually thinking of getting those handlebars. Now i'm fully convinced I need one on my own bike. Where'd you get the headset race and dust shroud from?
Thanks! Bet it looks nice with that 7" headlight. I reused the race and dust shrouds that were on the original fork.
@@SFARCO Oh yes it looks nice especially at night haha. I guess the headset differs a little between the Ep2 and Engine Pro since I don't have the race and dust shroud. Anyway thanks man you've got a new subscriber! Greetings from the Netherlands!
@@victorvance6279 Glad to have ya on board!
Looks great, I have an almost identical model (EP2-Pro) and always wondered if I could use another screen. Was your screen plug and play or did you have to change the controller too?
Thanks. I actually have not swapped out the display. That's the one that my bike came with.
@@SFARCO Now I'm wondering if I can simply plug one in.. Might be a bit risky though.. lol
Can I ask what protective cover and phone bag you have? I wouldn't mind the links to them too. And thanks for this video, im thinking to uograde my engwe as well!

When do you post the video about the longer bolt for the stash
I wasn't planning on posting a video about it. You just need a longer bolt for this setup. The link for the bolt is in the description.
Very informative and detailed work, good job! .. Regarding the freewheel, could you please share a Shimano alternative amazon link, the DNP is a bit pricey!
Thanks! Idk about a shimano brand. But here is an 8 speed 11-32T freewheel. It's about half the price, but not quite as good in the low gears for hills.
amzn.to/3QIoY7V
Actually, I found another listing that appears to be an 8 speed 11-34T freewheel. It's cheaper than the original link.
amzn.to/3P0fHa7
can anyone recommend me a better kickstand that's compatible with the engwe pro ? much appreciated .
Great video, I was going to see if I could change my front sprocket because in level 5 I just ghost pedal. I see you changed the rear is that the way to do it? I have a Tesgo hummer pro looks identical to your bike. Also, what battery are you using? I can only find a 17.amp battery unless I want to put a battery rack on.
Thanks! If you're only trying to eliminate the ghost pedaling, you can go either route. But the freewheel I chose will also help with hill climbing. My battery is only 12.8ah because I bought my bike before they upgraded to a larger battery. So I have a second battery for longer trips.
Where can I get the biggest battery that bike is the same as my Tesgo hummer pro.
@@nickxguitairist I couldn't tell you. Even though they look familiar, they could still be different. For instance, they upgraded my bike model, and it now comes with a 16ah battery that is not compatible with my original version bike.
Do you think it would be possible to mount an additional headlamp without having to remove the existing one? I'm not much of an electrical guy, don't know if that would disrupt the circuit or whatever if I spliced the same wire to the light with the new headlamp. I don't want to remove the existing one because it has the horn.
Yes, it's possible. However, I have read online that adding powerful lights could cause damage to your controller. I have moved my second light to be wired directly to the battery since it has its own in/off switch. But one time, I was regening down a steep hill, and it took out both my lights and controller. So now I try to only use regen with the lights off.
thank you so much! :D
i have the ep-2 pro. basically the same bike but just with no rear suspension. i have upgraded the brakes and the cheap fork couldnt handle the stopping power when i had to stop hard for a car running a red light... anyway the fork bent in where the disk break mount is welded so it is now unsafe to ride and the brake always rubs no matter how i align it. im going to be using this video to replace the fork :D
will also look a lot cleaner. thank you for taking the time to make this video!
just wondering, did you have to do anything special to make the wheel fit in the slots on the 9mm QR fork? or did it just slide in.
edit: i would just ask the company for a replacement or buy the same fork off aliexpress but it'll just happen again after a while. this way i get an upgrade and it looks cleaner :D
No, I didn't do anything special. I just slid the axle in and tightened the bolts. That's nuts that your fork bent like that.
@@SFARCO yeah but i guess that’s what 4 piston brakes do to chinesium :D
@@willie671 lol
@@SFARCO ughh, my bank account is hurting now. i live in denmark so everything is 20x more expensive. i spent like 200 euros on the fork, and then 150 euros on parts to install the fork.... i hope i wont need a press to install the crown race, have found a forum online where someone said you can just use an adjustable wrench and a hammer to smash it down on it. hopefully that works. or it'll be an expensive trip to the bike shop... i would just use a pvc pipe but they dont have those in stores next to me and i dont feel like taking the bus an hour to go to a hardware store :/
@@willie671 That's rough. Best of luck with the crown race. Persistence is key.
Hi I have one of these bikes and I'm just a bit intrigued the way you put the cassette on normally on a bike you have a spline which you fit the cassette,with a chain whip a cassette, but these cassette just srew, on any know what they're called , I'm based in the UK, thx for any help
Yes, this is different from a cassette. It's called a freewheel. It's all in one unit that threads on.
Hi, what’s the steerer tube locking system called, that replaces the star nut.
It's the Granite Stash rachet tool. There is a link in the description for it.
Incredible engineering skills, nobody in UK can or will do such mods , wish I lived in 🇺🇸 USA I’d give you whatever you asked in labour to do my bike 😊
Thanks! Why do you think no one in the UK would do these mods?
It’s impossible to get anything done by anyone now , bike shops just want to supply no interest in repairs or maintenance
@@jasonhiggins6431 Oh, that's too bad.
What would you charge in labour if you don’t mind me asking ?
@@jasonhiggins6431 I have no idea. This is a hobby for me. Professionally, I own and operate an appliance repair business. Which keeps my schedule full.
Hey @SFARCO! You inspired me to get the Lezyne front lights and they just came in today. But my question is how you managed to connect them to your controller? Because the input for the light cables on the controller are red, black and yellow but the Lezyne lights only came with 2 cables (red and black)…
I hope you can help me since I’m not really an experienced electrician ✌🏼
Are you connecting one light or two? I would recommend only one. When I had both connected, the controller kept turning one of the lights off. Next question, which lezyne light did you get? But essentially, the black wires go together, and the red wires go together. The yellow wire from the controller is for the horn that is in the original light.
@@SFARCO I’m connecting only 1 and I got the “LEZYNE E-Bike Macro Drive 1000 lumens Front Light”. So I did connect the cables as you said but the light simply doesn’t turn on at all when I push the on/off button on the light itself…
@BlvckAcyd if I recall the macro is only 6-12 volts. You need one of the high voltage models. I believe they only come in the 500 or 800 lumen models.
@@SFARCO Okay I’ll try the 800 model and see if I can get it to work. Thank you so much and keep the bike videos going! ✌🏼
@BlvckAcyd Make sure the 800 you order says high voltage. That model comes in both variations.
The handle bar mod would look great on a a8 aniioki
Sure would!
nice job, are the stock rim and tires tubeless conversation ready?
Thanks, they aren't technically listed as tubeless. But the mag wheels don't have a bunch of holes for spokes, so they basically are tubeless ready. And it's been working great!
@@SFARCO do you have to use bead sealer every few months? other people did the conversion and lose air after 1 month or two and have to use sealer
What's the dongle on your display? And what display is that to begin with? Why did you replace the original one?
The dongle is a USB charging port. I didn't actually change my display this is what my bike came with. I got the bike when it first came out before they upgraded to 16 amp hour batteries and gave it a different display. I believe the display model is KD 986 by the company key display.
Nice build looks good I've got the same bike I was trying to disconnect the speed restriction wire but don't know witch one it is do you know what color the wire is
Thanks! Is your bike not getting up to speed? It only goes up to 28 mph, and that can be dependent on how hard you're peddling and how much you weigh.
@@SFARCO it used to do 28 now only 22 I'm 50kg but I don't pedal just use the throttle
@whitedaripper5328 Don't know why it slowed down. Maybe something is wearing out. But typically, to get more speed, you would need a more powerful controller.
can you show us how the bike handles with the new forks , hows turning ?
Handles great! I will be posting some videos of me riding the bike soon.
@@SFARCO looking forward to it
Looks mad
Lol, thanks!
The Bucklos fork comes with two plastic "rings" (one on each side of the fork) between the two crossmembers with each a triangled shape on one side that has three round holes in it from the bottom. Hope you remember and can give me a hint on their purpose. Why did you remove them / not reinstall them?
Those are turning bumpers so the fork doesn't hit your bike frame. In the clip that shows me putting the fork together. I forgot to include them. But I went back and installed them later once I remembered.
@@SFARCO Yes, now I saw that you reinstalled them later / off camera. Thanks for the explanation! Was wondering what to do with them... :)
@@blackmoon925 No problem!
Salut,ou puis je trouvé la housse de cadre ? Celle qui entoure le cadre . Merci
Je l'ai eu d'Amazon mais j'ai dû le modifier un peu. J'ai dû raccourcir le velcro pour qu'il s'arrête à la charnière. Vraiment facile à faire, j'ai juste coupé le velcro supplémentaire et cousu le bout pour qu'il ne s'effiloche pas.
amzn.to/3NHkey5
Where can i get a replacement motor wire or motor?
Have you tried contacting the manufacturer?
Hey buddy, I like the handlebars you chose and was hoping to add the tool kits into the handlebars as well. I see that you ended up needing to bore out those holes. Is there a particular bit that you used for this? Thank you!
I do believe it was an 18mm bit, according to my purchase history. Here is a link: amzn.to/3FcGOJz
I would measure the tool just to be safe.
@@SFARCO thanks so much! Just ordered the bike and accessories. Thanks for the video to make the upgrades easier!
@patrickdavis7238 No problem, happy it helps!
@@SFARCO I’m so sorry to bother you with another question. But when you drilled out the handlebars, did you use a drill press or did you just use a drill and clamp it down?
@@patrickdavis7238 Not a bother at all. You want to keep it as straight as possible. A small angle can cause you blow out the side. That being said, I'm pretty sure I did it by hand, lol! Either way you do it, take it real slow and check your progress.
Hi can I ask where you got the frame velcro battery protector,thxs great upgrades

@@MrClarkycn No problem.
Beast!
Thanks!
How does the bucklos fork last , no issues so far ?
No complaints so far!
Can’t get the bead to seat with sealant in tire. Tried for about 20 minutes! Maybe your sealant was thicker?? Mine was like milk that will solidify with time-a synthetic latex they advertise.
Sometimes, it's a matter of alignment. Putting a ratchet strap around the tire can help compress it into shape.
Some great upgrades! Have you considered swapping out the thumb throttle for a full or half twist throttle? That's something I've been considerring but not sure how easy it would be. I've also considered replacing the front wheel with a powered version (maybe a 500w motor) and retaining the existing thumb throttle for the front, just to give extra performance when needed to get up the steeper hills. Would be great if anyone knows a powered front wheel option with a similar spoke pattern to the existing rear.
Thanks! I like the half twist or full twist, but I also like the custom grips that I put on the bike. I have looked into a front hub motor on a mag wheel. So far, all I have found are 170mm fork opening, not 135mm, which is what is needed. There are options for the 135 if you don't mind having traditional spokes.
FYI... I have commented twice on this video but my comments are not appearing below the description. I have notifications that @Sfarco had replied to my first comment however, when I click on the notification, i'm shown the comment above by @ChrisJones-xk2lu. I'm replying to this comment in hopes that it will not disappear. @Sfarco, could you please check your withheld comments, in case the spam filter is removing my comments... though I have no idea why they would as they are not spam like. Thanks. Fingers Crossed
@LilKing420s Yeah, I saw that. I don't know what happened to your comments. But they are gone, nowhere to be found. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I have seen this happen. I wish there was more I could do.
Thanks for letting me know @@SFARCO ! i can only read the first couple sentences of your replies But I think i get the gist. From what I have found onliine, it seems youtube is not fond of multiple edits of comments in a short period of time. Also, possible the link I included could have triggered too. I wish YT would let someone know when they do that crap. Again, I look forward to further vids about the Engine Pro. Thanks again!
@LilKing420s Yeah it's really annoying when I see good comments disappear like that. But I basically said: I am looking into controller upgrades, but it's early in my research. I don't have a wiring diagram, I traced the wires for what I have done. But real soon I will be releasing a really cool upgrade/accessory for the bike. So stay tuned!
cool vid. question is about tube tire vs tubeless. I have a ninebot max clone scooter and on the rear motor wheel the tube blew almost immediately after 3 uses probably poorly installed at factory pinch flat or they use the wrong tube, valve barely fits into rim sideways due to length. its a total bitch to get this tire on it's so tight (getting off not that easy either, and i've changed a lot of bike tubes), i got some long tire levers finally managed to get tire back on with new tube, but even with thick tubes i punctured 2 of em in process of installing, ready to give up and trash the thing. I've used scooter 3 times sitting in garage for 6 weeks. I want to go tubeless , but the coated tubeless tire that "might" fit is like 100 bucks, but it doesnt sound like i even need a "tubeless" tire. The stock tires are thick and tight as hell on the rim, so I'm guessing if i can find a valve that works, it might work? Are you putting the tire sealant in there just in case of punctures, or because the tire isnt a tubeless tire and wont seal well otherwise? I have a bottle of slime, should i use that with the stock tire. I know car tire install they put something around the bead on the rim (is that just the same sealant you use?). Should i just order the valve and see if it works? Im heavy so theres a lot of pressure on the back wheel.
Thanks! A lot of tubed tires will work as tubeless. You do need to buy a new valve stem. The sealant is used even with tubeless ready tires and rims. It helps seal the tire to the rim, and if you get a puncture, it will self seal. What they put on automotive tires is usual just lube to help slide the tire bead over the rim. You will want to use some sealant tape on the inside of the wheel. Gorilla tape works! Hope this helps.
@@SFARCO ok thanks. what makes a tire and a rim "tubeless ready"? I have a bottle of slime, is that good/thick enough? ordered the valve yesterday. I'm not sure where the tape would go on inside of rim or do you think its needed? -- The rim is thick heavy cast alloy (motor wheel 6.5 inch diameter), the tire bead will sit on a 1/2 inch wide lip that's about 1/4 inch down from the (fairly thick) edge of each side of the rim , whereas the center of the wheel is about an inch wide and lower down from the lips. Should i put tape on those lips but i think seating the super tight tire would move the tape anyways, and the wheel probably gets quite hot so would tape last in there ? No spokes solid alloy
@soneeeee4440 Tubeless tires have some minor design changes like the shape of the bead might be different. But I have seen many people use regular tires and not have any issues. As far as your bottle of slime, it depends because there are different types of slime. So you would need the type that is marked for bike tires.
Dose the tire sealant set inside the tire? I never saw this before, what happens when the tire gets worn out.
Yes, the sealant goes inside the tire. When the tire wears out, you just replace the tire and put fresh sealant in.
@@SFARCO ah ok interesting, I thought the tire gets sealed to the wheel frame, which I assumed would be difficult to pull apart when changing the tire.. nice upgrades!
@@EMarSounds Thanks!
On first half of video you have some cover around frame. What it is? Where can I buy it please? 7:52
I had to modify the frame cover a bit. I had to shorten the velcro so it stops at the hinge. Really easy to do, I just cut off the extra velcro and stitched the end so it doesn't unravel.
amzn.to/3NHkey5
Thank you. I have a little problem with fork install. I have different bike but cannot fit bearings from old to new fork. It is thinner and have threadson it. Do you know what headset bearings should I buy?@@SFARCO
@GaSo42 I would talk to your local bike shop. I don't even know what bike you have.
Wouldn't it be better to route the cables through the fork instead of around it? I missed the opportunity following your video and now I'm unsure whether I should be annoyed by this "mistake" or should be happy about it due to so far unconsidered reasons. ;) (Redoing is not really an option for me because I don't have appropriate tools at home to retighten the clamps. I'm just wondering, if there was a reason.)
It's easier to work on, when/if I need to. Also it has a fair amount of extra length, due to it originally having to reach farther. So this allows them to move around as they need to instead of being bunched funny in one or more spots. Which could lead to premature wire failure.
Thanks for the quick reply! And good to know there're some advantages. :)
@@blackmoon925 No problem!
howdy , what if my fork neck is a screw on type? do i need a diffrent style of fork setup?
If I understand your question correctly, then no, I don't think so.
@SFARCO I bought some forks ,and when I removed mine I had to unscrew 2 , 18 mm nuts holding them ,vs small center bolt,I guess I could use them but would need extra parts
@@hectorotani27 Are you working on the Engwe Engine Pro?
@@SFARCO aostirmotor a20
@hectorotani27 I haven't taken one of those apart, so I wouldn't be able to tell you definitively.
Do the forks have rebound function ?
Yes, it has air chuck on the left and adjustments on the right.
@@SFARCO Thanks .. I have got air shocks on front .. I also fitted a 165mm rear air shock( DNM AOY-36RC165) to replace the standard hlt . Works a treat . Also made a 2nd wiring loom for a 12v system ( indicators , twin halo lights and an alarm ) so can run 12v accessories without touching the engwe's own batter and wiring .
@chriskautz3245 oh, very nice. How do you like it?
What tool would you recommend to put the crown race?
The tools are basically a metal pipe with an adapter to mate with the race. But honestly, the pvc pipe worked great. It's soft enough to not need an adapter on the race end. Use a press or a good dead blow.
@@SFARCO tx I don't have a press or dead blow. What size on the PVC pipe?
@Saturnino Pizarro Even if you buy a crown setting tool, you will still need a dead blow or press, unfortunately. The size of the pvc pipe depends on the steering tube. But assuming you have a straight tube (same as mine), it is 1.25 inch.
@@SFARCO yes I have the engwe engine pro, so yes straight tube. I'm also getting the Bucklos. I'm a rookie so I want to make sure I have all the tools I need before I get the Bucklos.
@@saturninopizarro3532 Gotcha, let me know if you have any questions.
Back again, getting sick of me yet? 😅 I didn't get the tubeless done last time, but I did get into the motor this time for a look and a regrease, and switched my cassette out for a better one :)
No, not sick of you at all! I am really glad my video is beneficial to you. How did the motor look inside? Well greased from the factory, or not so much?
@@SFARCO surprisingly well greased, actually. Though that didn't stop me from putting some more in. I was opening it up because I've been having some absolutely horrific grinding noises and they seem to be coming from the motor, but the gears and the magnets all seem okay. I love this bike, but it drives me nuts some times 😅

Looks likes you have your searpost backwards. The screw should be facing the back to hold your weight.
Lol, yeah I realized I put it on backwards right after filming. Thanks!
Too bad they don't make mag wheels with motors for front
I guess you just order the rear motor and put it in front for 1500w😮
@djones811 Not without some customization. The fork is too narrow. I was looking around, and there are some close options. But nothing that was a direct drop in replacement.
@@SFARCO Heck, I can't even find any rear motors with mag wheels. They're all spoked. I've been thinking about upgrading the motor on my EP-2 Pro, but I don't want to switch to spoked wheels because I don't want to have to deal with bent/broken spokes. Would it be possible to switch out the hub motor in the existing wheel for a higher wattage one?
@@LifeofBrad1 Yes, you can swap the motor out and use your same wheel.
@@SFARCO Cool. Thanks. Gonna have to get someone who knows the ins and outs of e-bikes to do it for me because I'd be out of my depth trying to do something like that myself.
03:52, what sort of tubeless tyres are you using.?
The supplied fitted ones with inner tube arent suitable for using as tubeless. Air just blows out at the sides not filling the tyres to make them expand and meet with rims. Hopeless.!
If it is hopeless, then why does it work? Also, why does it bother you? That's the real question.
Can I ask what crankset did you buy and how many teeth to stop ghost pedaling. Thank you

Drive it...
Will do!
Et ebike!
Thx?
Not a flywheel, a gear cassette, on a freewheel which does not get tightened by the hub motor, only by your pedalling. The motor is in the hub and doesn't use the gears at all. Tyre sealant at that low pressure didn't work for me with a puncture, made a fine mess though. Why you mess up a good folding bike to make an imitation of the M20 is beyond me, why not just buy that? Oh, and all Engwes have brake lights.
Yes. I misspoke when I said the motor would tighten the freewheel more. I meant pedaling, but figured people would understand. And yes it is a freewheel, not a cassette. Also the motor is a geared motor, so it does use gears. The motor doesn't use the freewheel gears, but I never said it did. Why would I buy a second bike when I can customize my own for cheaper and put my own personal touch on it. Ruining it is a matter of opinion, it was pretty ugly before, in my opinion. And no, not all Engwes have brake lights, if that where true, I would have a brake light. But I don't, they cheaped out and installed only tail lights on most of the original Engine Pros. Even though the controller is set up for a brake light. So maybe double check your facts.
Just buy a better bike in the 1st place the answer 😅. It looks bad all wires sticking out front looks cheap now😢
That's your opinion, I could spend the time to explain why you are wrong. But instead I think this time would be better spent on you, and why you are angry with you life to the point that you need to take it out on people you don't even know. I think some self reflection would be beneficial.
Warranty...LOL...don't make me laugh.
Changing your comment, I see.
For everyone else, this is not a new bike. I'm not voiding any warranty. I like upgrading my stuff after I buy them, because I get a chance to see what can be better, and personalize it. Maybe you can't afford to buy better because the cost too much all at once. But buying something cheaper and upgrading it allows you to pay as you can afford it. I'm all for constructive criticism, but I don't care for rude people trying to bully others.
Oh no....it looks terrible. Never seen anything so horrible. 👎👎
Really? Wow!
Didn't your momma teach you that if you don't have anything nice to say not to say anything at all?
Don't be an a-hole!
Ok. How would you do it then? Enlighten us since you're obviously the arbiter of taste. Do you think it looked better with the goofy giraffe neck stem on it?
I've been riding this bike for about a month ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxwC0IIeIomGQVeBWg-kKJaToZkLEFIA2W and a half now and I think it's fantastic. It helps me get to work on time every day since I'm able to fit it inside of public transportation rush hour. The price is great too, people are always shocked when they ask me how much I paid for the fold up and I tell them "200". It's easy to fold and installation when it ships is insanely easy. All you have to install when the bike arrives is one foot pedal, everything else is done for you. I do recommend you carry some sort of wrench to tighten any loose screws on the handle bar and seat whenever they get a little bit loose. Other than that I think it's a fantastic bike. Easily fits in the home, can fit inside a car trunk and can even fit in subway rush hour.
Yeah, it is a bit heavy.
So you made these pointless upgrades but didn't swap mid shock? Which would make the biggest difference?
Everybody's got their own opinion. And most of them stink. The rear shock is an easy job that doesn't require an instructional video. Also I don't think the rear shock is that bad, it was stiff initially because they didn't put the washers in the right places. But after I fixed that, it works great for my needs.
