Finally the Pokemon trainer's bike has been made
This is exactly what I need
How much?
@@CaptainCraigKWMRZ He said that in the video. Very clearly I might add. I'm not trying to be a smart ass, i'm just pointing out that it was mentioned. At around 8:50
🤣
I need one!!!
I like the folding bike. I am a disabled vet, it seems like the perfect, light-weight mobility bike that would let me have the freedom to enjoy things like flea market, car shows, and nature trails that I couldn't otherwise enjoy. Thanks for the review, it helped me to realize that I need one.
Its probably much better for you to get a normal electric scooter like xiaomi m365 and get a seat attachment,maybe its slightly heavier but its also significantly more powerful in specs and easier to fold
@@hermanweiss8158 need one with a better range than that though.
@China Boss nigga one of those cost like 10k, tried to get one for my grandma, they are not cheap at all
Why mention your a vet 🧐
@@pault8470 “boomer” ? Didn’t you mean SIR ?
"I never read these, but I always get into trouble so I should probably read these.... Nahhh" That's the most relatable thing ever.
And then when he did read it, it didn't include the info he wanted.
Imo, you miss the purpose:
Ride it TO the train station, from your home.
Ride it FROM the train station to workplace
This replaces the bus!
He literally says "this is truly for the last mile"
@@sdziscool literally said it, but not a literal statement.
Perfect! And for a reasonable price.👍🏼
or, or ... you can just use your legs.
@@zoran123456 what if a persons legs is broken
That is pretty cool. I think you missed 1 fold when you folded it back up, the seat post has 2 hinge points so that the seat top is facing down when completely folded. This might work well to carry around on a boat.
Good call!
First thing i thought of when i saw it , could work with a light aircraft too .
Too much concerned 😟 hehehe
I was thinking an airplane, but yeah...same utility for a boat, too!
A few months ago I worked as a maintenance technician of parking equipment in a big shopping mall. The parking lot had 3 underground levels and they were so big I was clocking 10 km daily of walking on average, and sometimes up to 18 on weekends. A fleet of this things would have been awesome to get around the mall. It would save the staff a lot of fatigue, and also allow for a quicker service for the customers.
Congratulations!

You would never get anything done until the batteries were too low to keep having races and having all kindsa ecofriendly bike fun,
#AmIRite?
LOL!
Dude, skateboard!! Those are perfect for parking lots.
I think the reason there's a safety for the front wheel and not the back wheel is because if the front lock fails, you are going to get thrown over the front instantly. If the back lock fails, you probably won't even notice. Unless you try to walk it backwards.
Agreed! Something else to keep in mind while ebiking is to wear the proper helmet, most helmets have an outdated safety standard, the best ones are the ones that pass the nta standard like xnito or bern hudson
Being an RVer, that would be cool to take with to use in the campgrounds.
Stephen king ruined campgrounds for me
@@bev8200 Nice

Small wheels wouldn't work in grass, loose gravel, exposed roots etc. Mostly for smooth pavement.
No thank you!
Great idea! Our scooter is quiet but not everyone gets up early at the campground. When it is super quiet our 49cc sounds like a HD so this would be great to zip to the potty silently.
An e-bike in a backpack? This truly has some real life applications. It also has the cool gadget factor and I want it.
"E bike in a backpack" ?
Do you think it's something lightweight?
You wouldn't last 10 minutes walking with that thing in a backpack.
@@SERGIO-cr6uy I doubt anyone really wants to take this backpacking but it's only 28lbs and I've carried heaver back-packs. Beginners usually carry 30-35lbs.
I am incredibly impressed with what I see here. The engineering effort is awesome.
CHINA IS A FASCIST TOTALITARIAN REGIME ! STOP ADVERTISING AND PURCHASING CHINESE PRODUCTS
It's like a more extreme, less capable, but probably more useful Honda Motocompo. The perfect backup transportation to keep in a car's trunk. I love it!
I'd keep mine in the trunk of my car all the time, and whenever there was a good opportunity I could park the car and go for an electric bicycle ride. And you don't even need to lug the bike indoors to recharge. Just take out the battery for charging when you arrive at your destination.
If you've got the cash and even a little trunk space to spare, this is a good item to keep in the trunk along with a first aid kit, some basic automotive tools, emergency food and water, a blanket, a change of clothes, and a rifle. Now you can add a second ground vehicle without sacrificing much cargo capacity in most trunks. I don't think I'd miss the used space in anything larger than a kei car.
This comment was actually really on point! Honda just announced a more extreme, less capable, but probably more useful Honda Motocomp(act)o! It’s basically this foldable escooter encased in a little plastic suitcase.
I don't need it, wouldn't want to be seen riding it....and yet somehow, I want it! Hahaha
ha look abit stupid , but it make you go work early , lol
Exactly
Ditto.👍🏼🤣👍🏼
I know right.
@Nigel Lush sussy baka
He’s unlocked the a UA-cam algorithm, I got a bunch of tennis Commercials
Looks like those detailed transformers toys I never could turn back again into the car.
I think it works well in it own little niche too. Also, a nice toy for kids too and a value for whatever its able to do.
Finally! A mobility scooter for thin people : )
Micah watching you struggle at the end folding it back together made my day lol
The reason the front has a safety and the back doesn't is because of the hinge placement. If you were to hit a pump with the front tire it would try to force the hinge open but if the back wheel hits a bump moving forward it just forces the hinge more closed and doesn't effect anything. Also, since these hinges are angled outwards you would have to take your weight off the bike for them to go back in. Looks like a dope bike!
I really like it
Thanks for not editing out the fumbling while folding I got a good laugh
This is a great little bike. I definitely see it as a last trip section tool. Or emergency transpo kept in car trunk.
This bike should come with Jetson's car sound.
Spot on
That would be awesome lol
The whole time I hear the jetsons car noise in my head lol
How much n where we can buy
Don't think about that joke.
Lol: I love that you don't edit out the difficult parts to make it look like you're the genius that we already know you are.Thanks, great review!
Congratulations!!!

One guy in Antwerp, Belgium has picked himself as the next winner. Good job, bro!
This thing is awesome. I think for specific transportation needs it would be perfect. I'd probably never fold it because then it becomes chunky and its already really slim. Especially if you only fold the handlebars.
This e-bike would be great for someone who has to take public transportation.
I could have used something like this in my commuting days. I've had several jobs that required a 15 minute walk from home to the bus stop. After getting off the bus there was another 15 minute walk to the office. That's an hour of walking everyday! It was good exercise but there were days when I just didn't feel like doing all that walking.
The build quality of Xiaomi products are amazing, they also use metal wherever they can and still at an affordable price.
That's the best 13 minutes I've spent today! Thanks! I have a Fiat 500e Electric car, that thing MIGHT fit in my boot.
Who gets their package in the mail then carries it out onto a tennis court to open it? Lol WTF
rich people
YT people
Maybe no space. But still, i noticed it too, like why in the Tennis court. 🤣
He clearly said it was made for flat spaces
Smooth pavement buddy
That is such a cool tiny bike and looks like a ton of fun to be had on it
That made a lot of sense for Tōkyō life! Anywhere else, no idea.
Beijing!
Great addition to the car emergency kit, especially for suburban and rural dwellers. Car does the long commute and bike does the runarounds.
Plus; if you happen to run out of gas or have a breakdown in the middle of nowhere you can most likely make it on this bike to the next gas station on one battery charge.
Plus: one in the trunk for each of your kids and dropping them off at school becomes fun rather than a crash derby thru the normal school run. Kids would love jumping off at the street corner and biking it there and back for pickup later no problem...
Wonder if they have an adaptor to charge off the car in motion from the USB or Lighter power circuit?
Can actually fit on a train? Woah, a true last mile device....
The seat folds x2. That's why it was had to push it down. Nice review!
Reminds me of a motocompo.
Fun to see concepts evolve like that.
I love xiaomi, every single product is innovative
I would love a full sized one, because standing scooters with seats look ridiculous.
I love the foot pegs, and the bike shape while being sidewalk legal for college campus
Umm, that's cool and all, but I'm actually just waiting to play tennis.
Pickleball
Lol
The door's that way.
it would be good to use in a small town. Thank you for sharing!
Your footage is amazing! The drone you use was definitely worth the money. BTW, good review (LOL).
Looks like fun! I could see myself have one as a toy to ride to the local shop etc. but I would never actually use it for commuting or anything like that. $450 is a bit much. Make it $349 and it becomes more interesting.
thank you i was jumping with joy when i seen your video in my feed.
Saw*
i have recently found your channel and i have decided to subscribe and i think you are doing a good thing here and hope your keep up the good work.

This is great! I love your reviews dude. Keep it up!
Micah can you please do a video on this year's singles day in China, your recommendations on the best batteries and ebike conversion kits. Would very much like to pick something up for great price. Thank you.
There are no men watching this who don’t recognize themselves in your directionless unfolding and listening to your inner monologue. “Just yank it harder!” he says. Hilarious. And as always the beautiful scenery and golden light. Thanks!
thats what she said
This “micro ebike” is actually cute and adorable... wonder if it would fit inside my Can Am Spyder’s frunk (front trunk)... thanks for video, this ebike brings a smile 😊 on my face...
Big fan of anything electric. Thanks for the video
Ok I love it. It so cute makes my dolphin bike look like a beast lol
I liked your video when you said. "I should probably edit that out" Then edited it in.
The fold-up was the best. Though I always enjoy your vids, that had me laughing.
I love your attitude. You called the seat and the battery adorable and the yellow color like Transformer's Bumblebee. You're adorable. Stay awesome.
Congratulations!!!

The 36v 7.5ah battery pack is pretty good size. I have an Ancheer folding bike that came with a 36v 8ah battery pack. Battery capacity is probably bigger than most scooters of the same cost. By the way, why don't they make a scooter that small, you would think it would be easier.
rear wheel doesn't need a safety latch as it folds opposite to the direction you are going, so its pretty secure.
That was a very cool video. I can see that small electric bike fitting in my trunk in case I run out of gas. Or it would be great in an electric car in case you run out of charge. Great job on the video
Thanks for the unboxing. Enjoyed it.
POV: you went to the tennis court to practice after a long day until some random dude appears and proceeds to unbox his newest bike
Looks like a modern Interpretation of the Sinclair Zike. Looks just as useful too ;)
Yeah, Zike or the A-Bike which there is an electric version.
This sort of product is fantastic if you want something that can fit on crowded buses and trains without pissing off all your fellow passengers, and when you get to your destination, instead of locking your bike to a rack and hoping nobody steals it, now you can just keep it with you the whole time.
Love it! At 8:30 I started thinking about the physics involved in terms of rear-motor drive and Centre of Gravity - interesting. Nice one.
you were wondering exactly how much faster it would have to be before he bounced the back of his head on the ground?
“Should I just yank it?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s me! 🤣🤣🤣 that’s how I break things 🤣
That is amazing , I loved it.
Thanks for said fun demo! 🚴
It's a Xiaomi... The no. 1 smartphone seller in the world.
I love that we live in a world were cars are becoming less of a necessity
Personal electric transports like the ebikes and electric kick scooters will be the new norm. I bought an electric kick scooter and have a lot of fun every time I ride it. Get one now.
Still nothing like a a old school muscle or classic car
@@scooterbob4432 not really. only good for commuting within urban environments, and to an extent, suburban neighborhoods for short distances. and not only that, that only depends on what the person is trying to achieve. this transportation method is only suitable if the person wants to get from point A to point B in a short distance gap
@@bobbyjohnson3510 We will know we're where we need to be, when we have free mass transit so fast and efficient you don't need to check times, and personal cars, like classic and muscle cars, become hobby items, or tertiary transport, rarely used.
We live in a time where motorbikes have become so cheap even the poorest person could afford it
Dude, I thought you were going to unpack the WALL-E !!! 😅😅
(Remember? That funny-smart-cool little robot from Disney's movie?)
Of course! It reminded me of Wall-e straight away in the thumbnail.
Really a wonderful idea to use as a travel companion to cover short distance journey, thumbs up for me.
Congratulations!

Wow, nice piece of kit! It could make a nice caravan scooter for my tour of Europe
I was scared that you'd cough and your arse would swallow half the bike! 🤣
That’s a good one 😂
Between your comment and the one about riding a wet floor sign. I suddenly caught asthma and my eyes are watering.
@@jtqthetieman no cap?
@@Kingbob556 baseball or flat?
@@DanceySteveYNWA
My thoughts, exactly.
Pretty cool - for smaller body types its definitely a win - needs to be modified by a few inches for taller body types -but still cool to see these type of gadgets
Micah love your videos u pop yo on the home screen of you tube and it brings a smile to my face😁😁😁👍👍👍👍
It seemed easy for u to fix ur new ebike!..ur amazing!..
This would be awesome with a foldable clown costume!
I would like to unbox and assemble it, inside a passenger metro train just to watch the look on the faces of the passengers. :)
Try that in Chicago or Hartlam NY someone else is going to ride it out for you.
@@loktom4068 lmao arent they usually after the good looking bikes though? this thing look like a kids toy at first glance. i doubt anyone would snatch it or see immediate high value unless they were desperate or if it was just laying out in the open for free grabs
Nice to go around in the park instead of walking briskly just to see everything.
I'm a 'Nam era vet and the old knees aren't what they used to be. Considering folks cruise around on e-scooters, this foldable sit down e-scooter is pretty impressive! I mean, take it on the elevator and set it under your desk at work! Needs a brake though...
Perfect for a car with no spare tire, or just for breakdowns, among other uses.
As suggested, could be used as compact mobility unit. It will be useful for some people. Quirky design. I bet most kids would love it.
It stands out from the crowd Lol.
Well, I can see some places where it might be good to have, like in the trunk of your car, of course depending on the range, and if you travel out in urban areas a lot, but is it actually faster than walking, and with that tiny seat is more comfortable than walking?
The color scheme and everything really reminds me of the 80's Honda MotoCompo that was an option for the trunk of the Honda City
Congratulations!!!

Great for sailing folks! You always want to maximize your space on a boat. Great for running into town from the dock.
"Fold up to fit in a backpack" Im not sure I would want to carry that around in a backpack.
Do you even lift bro?
id fit tho
Maybe a messenger bag then?
Excellent design and a practical city bike for students:-)
Truly fascinating and potentially useful. What is the estimated 'range'? Not too much I think, yet for short distances it's probably adequate?
that would be perfect for general aviation pilots to stow in the baggage space on a Cessna, etc. Runabout at airports and whatnot.
that’s a cool application that I didn’t think of, interesting!
I ordered one of these in March last year and even after repeated emails I’ve heard no more. Looks like I’ve done my money
Me too, I think all they sent out were UA-cam reviewers models.
Hi! Enjoyed watching from Kenya.
this solves the question does size really matter! this is a good example where size really doesn't matter :)
When all else fails read the instructions!
It looks like something LEGO would have invented. I like it.
looks great thanks for sharing .. what is the actieradius on this nice little ebike ??
Hi are the tyres solid rubber or do they have tubes, this may be a daft question considering the size of the wheels, good video, cheers
Unfortunately I live near potholes that could swallow that 😂
This is actually perfect for those who drive an EV and want something to get around on while they wait for their car to charge while on a road trip.
A good alternative would be an electric kick scooter. It's also very compact and easy to store in the car's trunk.
Comes with a plethora of pinch points at no extra charge. Somewhere in China, a Xiaomi employee was watching the route taken on your test drive.
Cool mini bike! I like it!
That looks small enough to be hand luggage on a flight. I think it's absolutely delightful. I think that it may not be legal without a driving license, tax and insurance in the UK because it is not pedal assist and would thus be classified as a moped.
I would get off, fold it up and say to the cop -- "Really?" 😉
retarded country
Congratulations!

10:35 The rear tire fold forward so there's no accidentally folding while you're riding it.
That thing is basically a scooter but with seats.
Oh I just love that thing ...whatever it's called. Amazing!
Just bought one here in Australia on sale for $350, I just use it to ride to the station to catch the train to work. It looks funny to ride but its fun and compact haha
