Hi.. thx for the review.. i had a ado a20+ and consider to buy a air.. only thing i wonder is: how is the battery/saddle protected from getting stolen? On their website you can buy a "battery protector" but do You need one or is there some protection in the standard setting?
Hills, especially long inclines are a challenge for all single speed electric bikes. If you live in an area with a lot of terrain I would suggest getting a bike with multiple gears, it is a big help. 👍
@@ryuno2097 My daughter can ride up steep hills on assist one The real range is a 25 mi And that's not using assist 3 There is a battery lock available now It's not long enough range for me
Thank you for the insightful video! Based on your review, I purchased the ebike and I'm enjoying it. However, I've noticed some fluctuations in the battery level indicator-sudden drops followed by significant charge recovery. I'm uncertain if this is typical behavior or if there might be an issue. I'd be grateful if you could share your experience regarding this matter. Greetings from Denmark!
I noticed there is a new model called the PVY Libon which also has a carbon belt drive and torque sensor but has two batteries and a higher configuration. I'm wavering between these two models, Will you test PVY Libon?
I got it a few weeks ago. Classic half baked chinese product that somewhat shines because its cheap, looks good and is light. why half baked? 1. Have you tried the software on iOS? 2. You obviously did not notice that plastic mud guards do absolutely nothing for the rain. 3. Belt drive sounds great, but its half baked compared to known bike brands. It also sucks when it comes to hills since you dont have a transmission and torque sensor seems to be extremely cheap and grabs way too late 4. Navigation does not work. At least via iOS. Even though they are marketing it, so basically they are overpromising if not lying. 5. I ordered international version, but I am stuck with 250w motor and that is just not enough for any hills. Its a shame. I would be more than willing to pay 200-300 euros extra if they would just freaking get out of this default chinese mentality of overpromising, underdelivering and smiling with an argument: but its cheap.
Cool...a commentary from my area. If you see a blue one driving around this lake it could possibly be me ;) I like this bike as well, it is easy to use, quite adult in driving and good looking.

Try telling the truth about the bike😢 This is the worst electric bike I've ever ridden what a piece of junk try riding up a hill The furthest I've got is 32 km on flat ground😢 Go get a Fiido L3 😎
Is there a magnet when folding the bike?

What is the minimum size of a person riding the bike?
Have you tried the Fiido X? Which do you prefer?
This bike is rubbish 😂
Get Fido x-2
Key points you glossed over - No gears, no suspension, no lock for the battery. It has hydraulic brakes.
We have the front suspension model
battery lock available - easy to install
@@jurgensegers4112
It can still be undone with a torx bit 😂
The range is rubbish, it’s rubbish on hills
I’ve just ridden one
@@niteblaster1 did u try in unlocked 350w mode by any chance?
@@S-O-T Is it worth it? What is the downside (apart from the extra weight)? Thanks
Very nice review! Is Air 20 OK for me 105kg 187 cm? Will it help a bit on the 5degrees hills?
Hi! Do You know when the suspension version will be available?
Hi Ray,
Let me check that for you.
-SB
It was available in the Ado homepage two weeks ago, but only for 1 day 😢
it was something about +100 Euro. Only front suspension
I asked them and the replied rhat will be available mid June aprox.
@@evapavlikova Thank You!
is battery locked on the key to protect from theft ?
Any hill tests ?... I have heard that its a weakness because of no gears

@@TechnikLoftde Thanks for the quick reply, appreciated.
That is a bit of a shame about the hills, but understandable with that set up
It's meant to be a city bike, minor inclines are fine but if you're going to climb a steep hill with it then this bike isn't the right choice.
@@ryuno2097
My daughter can ride up steep hills on assist one
The real range is a 25 mi
And that's not using
assist 3
There is a battery lock available now
It's not long enough range for me

With just a single gear how fast can you go without your feet flying off the pedals?
In the european version : 25km/h ... no problem
I don't see the suspension option on the ADO website?
We have it in the UK
What it s name for this bike whit suspension plese?

At the moment it does not look like it.
Hey, I have ADO A20F Beast & it's the best bike in the world in My opinion :)

Hi! Did You get a throttle with your bike or did they just send you a 250w EU version instead of the 350w version?
@@RayMartini I was promised to get the throttle separately.
How do you know it's a 250W motor they sent you? You checked your max. speed or ?
@@viktorijevalenta8732 it says on the motor? Also, i have another 250w folding bike and it feels the same. 350w should feel noticeably stronger.
@@andrazlogar861 what's the max speed of the bike? If it's 350w it would be 30-35 km/h. 250w version is limited to 25 km/h.
Does it have throttle?
No, at least not here in Germany.
with 20x3 inch tires this bike would have been perfect..

has anyone problems folding? Mine is super hard to fold, you need two people!
I've been put off buying this when a man on a normal push bike overtook you 😮 Plus the video footage is in fast motion, 😮
E-Bikes in Europe are limited in speed to 25km/h when it comes to the pedal assist. 😉
This is due to regulation though.
You are obviously not American, why would you use miles and pounds as units??
Wassn das für ein komischer Akzent
Try telling the truth about the bike😢
This is the worst electric bike I've ever ridden what a piece of junk try riding up a hill The furthest I've got is 32 km on flat ground😢
Go get a Fiido L3 😎
well Fiido L3 is 25kg, this is one 16kg, carrying 16kg up and down the 4th is a lot easier, not all of us live in a house or have a lift
