What TechMagnet said is now all want to know about, we think this video is very detailed and could help you know more about ADO Air! As long as it helps you, that's enough.😄
Agree. It’s a nice guy to watch, but he’s a bit too enthousiastic about any bike he’s reviewing. (For it’s own profit?). Nice but not really an independent and convincing test.
How can you drive with such a seating position? Very low driver position even when the seat is pulled out to the maximum. Uncomfortable position causes leg pain.
The Belt drive is good for a city bike. I hope they make another version but with gears for those who like a little off road cycling. Also wish they didn't remove the suspensions.
About the same weight as a Brompton ebike. Now if only it could food as small, because the 20" folders don't fit my train overhead compartments. Personally I wouldn't want a hub motor if only to change a popped tube without extra tools to disconnect the motor. With a middrive you're also able to add internal gear hub, or upgrade/swap wheel/tire
I love the ado beast bike that im tempted to get later this year. I prefer its metal fully formed mudguards which is a shame this bike not used same ones.
so, is this battery blocked somehow? or can anybody just take it off, while im not around for a moment? not a problem, if its not to big, I can take it with me, right?
Thanks for this interesting review. Can you say more about the differences between the assist levels? At 2:57 in your video you show a page of the manual that says that the bike only assists after pedaling to 6 km/h and that assistance in PAS1 ends at 15km/h and in PAS2 at 20 km/h. That would be strange for a bike with a torque sensor, where you would expect to get assist right from the start and where usually all assist levels go to 25km/h, being differentiated by the amount of assistance they give (e.g. 70%, 120% and 250%).
@@ADO_Official Does this really mean that the motor does not assist when starting, even though the bike has only got one gear? That would not be very usable. In addition, a torque sensor also doesn't make much sense if the motor support stops at 15 and 20 km/h in the first two modes, just like with a simple motion sensor.
@tubenstefan Whoah, just saw your comment and thanks - you stopped me making a mistake and buying the Ado Air! That delayed assist is a dealbreaker for me. I use an e-bike because of arthritis in the knee and assistance from the start, when there is most pressure on the joint, is vital. 6kmh is way too late. Such a nice bike otherwise it's a shame.
Is there a version of this bike with alloy wheels, dual suspension, and fenders/mudguards? Can the throttle be used without pedaling? I'm in the States. So far, I have the Vitilan i7 Pro as my next purchase. My current E Bike is ready to be retired after 4 years of faithful service. I'm still looking for alternative options.
🚲🔀🌳 While the belt drive is great for city biking, I'm intrigued by the idea of a version with gears for off-road cycling enthusiasts. It would offer more versatility and the ability to conquer different terrains. However, I do share your sentiment about the suspension being removed. It's an essential feature for a smoother and more comfortable ride, especially when tackling rough paths. It would be interesting to see if future iterations of this folding eBike take these factors into consideration. 🤔✨🔧
I bought e bike ado a20f but after 1 month the light together with the horn stopped working.... nothing happened, no bumps, no falls, nothing.... what can it be?
there are two version, eu version and international version, if you buy international version, the max speed is 30km/h, and with 350w motor and throttle.
I think for the customers IT was a nice idea if the gear ratio could be changed via Software, so you can drive 25 to 30 kmh without Pedal too much With the disadvantage IT will be Start harder
That monitor was crystal clear on a daylight! I love that this is lighter than any other 20inch ebike out there. I was able to try the ado a20 & the pedal assist was very responsive compared to fiido & himo so I bet it’s the same with this model. I just wished they could have used a suspension fork like with the A20. In manila, the roads are a bit bumpy so this would definitely add comfort. Lastly, I prefer if this has a throttle so I have better control of the speed instead of an abrupt speed by the pedal assist which is not applicable if you’re in a crowded street.
@artsyarte So you had no bother getting off from a standing start? I have a bad knee so pedal assist has got to kick it at once. The torque sensor on the Fiido d21 does that brilliantly (my current bike) - how does the Ado Air manage it?
@@longjon120 From what I remember from the demo, himo was probably in the 3-4-second mark before the pedal assist kicked in on a 15-degree uphill. I own a fiido d4s and I would say it’s probably on a 2.5-second mark. That’s my presumption. Also, perhaps the motor was a factor too because ado20 is 350-watt while fiido & himo have 250.
looks like the battery seat can get easily stolen being a quick release and of course I can take the seat with me but that would be a hassle carrying that all over the place. Correct me if I'm wrong.
That's correct. Great if you want to just charge the battery in your room, but good point. Thanks to the weight and small form factor I'd take the whole thing with me. ~ Chris
@@MarkizVonSchnitzel I have a Fiido d21 with torque sensor and in assist mode 3 it gives a lot of help on hills. However it is a geared bike. Like you i wish the reviewer had spent less time gushing about the details and more on how a fixed gear torque drive feels
I'd like to see a real world test as to the bikes 'real' range with riding with inclines to see some accurate figures on the bikes range. Manufacturers seem to give us figures under perfectly flat, no wind etc., conditions.
I just checked out Carbo X before coming upon this bike. Carbo X is 13.3 kg and this bike weighed in at 18.5 kg. which is 5.2 kg heavier. or 11.44 pounds heavier. Like in every activity less is more in terms of saving weight. But a very nice product and excellent video and salesman. So enthusiastic.
Thanks for the review! Does it paddle comfortably at 30 km/h? I modded my ado A20 for the very reason. I'm not sure if I would do the same with the rubber belt
Consumers have been warned only to buy e-bikes and e-scooters from reputable retailers following a dramatic surge in house fires caused by unsafe batteries and chargers. An “alarming spate” of fires has been attributed to non-compliant lithium-ion batteries used in the bikes and scooters, the Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) warned.
Hello! I’d like to ask you how much can you still grow the seat height? How tall are you? It looks like you can’t stretch your legs enough while riding.. It does fit me at 180 cm?
We purchased this Vivi 27.5” electric bike and a Tentaquil 26” electric bike for our 13 and 14 year olds. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxUiL0GnyDjP32RJdd660sP8mZk4CRLTCJ The Vivi was much easier to put together. With the Vivi, there was a video link to assist with assembly which made the process easier to follow (we did put the handlebars on upside down, but it was a quick and easy fix). With the Tentaquil, the assembly was not as simple to follow, but after we messaged the company for an assembly video, it was easier and they did respond quickly. The other major differences were that the Vivi has a grip throttle on the right handle (like a motorcycle) and the Tentaquil has a push throttle that you use your thumb to activate. The monitors were also different, so if you’re looking for something specific in terms of changing the bikes functions, pay attention to what the monitor offers. We were really impressed with the overall quality and functionality of both bikes, but if you’re looking for more power and an easier assembly, definitely go with the Vivi!
thanks bro, I noticed you also tested PVY Libon, would you do a comparison test? The dual battery design of PVY Libon really attracted me, and with the suspension fork and battery lock, it looks more cost-effective.🤝
With the throttle feature and the bigger motor, it seems like the international version is better than the EU version - are there any disadvantages to the international version. They are the same price on indegogo
Yet no one will know in the UK if it's illegal especially as ebikes are rarely stopped by police as there ain't enough coppers about and they likely attend to scooters and again rarely and I live in London and it's still rare, I feel idiots without helmets and balaclava up are more targeted.@@dtz1000
Nice enough for a flat city but the lack of gears will be a problem for many a big downside to belt drive systems. I'd take the Fiido X anytime over this one.
@@ADO_Official Thanks for the reply, but how does 250W and single gear mean it's easy to climb? It's hard to pedal in single high gear, and motor only has so much power. How much torque does it have?
@@MarkizVonSchnitzel Hello! As ADO Air is equipped with a smart torque sensor system that provides you immediate power assistance according to terrain. In this case, even if you ride or start the ride on an incline, you will get the assistance you need immediately with 3 levels of electrical power to assist your ride. What's more, the figure of the torque is 37NM. for CE version(250W) and 42NM. for International version(350W).
Using only throttle how much distance drives?? It is an over the top bike for its category , but compare to other ( fiido d2s d4s - ado) i notice that 1) the battery can be stolen -removed by anyone extremely easily For examole if you go to supermarket and leave it alone and locked , u can just return and find that battery is missing - can be just removed just pressing 2 buttons? Lol Fiido and ado havent this problem (ado has lock on battery and fiido is inside the frame) 2) i have to admit that i love the design if ado air but price is almost 40% + Comparing fiido d2s / ado A20 /ado a16
Are there any theft protections like an alectronic lock tied to the registered app or an alarm that can be set if it is moved without the registered phone with app opened nearby or a tracer so you can follow it if it is stolen? Just one gear? No protection on the belt so cloths could get in there and get stuck? The back mud protector seem to be a little short for it to be a good protection.16 Kg I would not say is super light as there is already one foldable e-bike around 10 Kg (Vello). Anyhow interesting to see what the price will be on indiegogo.
Thanks for your suggestion! I will feedback your suggestion to the product department.It has no gears and is a modern single speed belt drive with a torque sensor.The Carbon Belt has an efficient rotation system and will not get stuck; The rear fender will have a metal option on the igg; If I remember correctly, Vello is more than 3000 Euros.
In sämtlichen Videos, die man bisher von diesem eBike sehen konnte, haben die Fahrer den Sattel viel zu tief eingestellt. Es sieht immer so aus, als ob sie in der Hocke fahren. So sitzt kein normaler Radfahrer auf dem Bike. Sattelstütze wahrscheinlich zu kurz konstruiert. Fehlkonstruktion! Dann noch eine Frage: Ist das ein Singlespeed eBike, oder gibt es eine Gangschaltung?
It's a single-speed e-bike with modern carbon belt and torque sensors. Of course there is no problem with the design, you can adjust the height that suits you according to your own height.
This is not the first foldable lightweight belt drive ebike… please check your info first, accuracy of information is key… Carbo has been out there much longer and is lighter than this bike with a carbon fiber frame. In fact this bike is dangerously closely modeled after the Carbo model… It is almost identical
Not true. The Carbo X has been out for several years and has a carbon belt, carbon fiber frame and is foldable. ADO copied their whole design basically. I've owned a Carbo X and Carbo S for several years and highly recommend them. No need to wait for this ADO Air bike.
@@Jordan-cl9xr It's cheaper due to much cheaper parts. The Carbo X is premium Japanese carbon fiber and practically indestructible. I've owned one for over 2 years and it is still running like day 1. I put it through extreme stress testing, riding down hills, off jumps, in all types of weather conditions in NYC and I never had problems with it at all. The Carbo is also about 5 lbs light than the ADO, which is significant if you have to lift it up several flights of stairs anytime you want to use it. Plus you can get an angled stem to sit more upright, which is more comfortable on the Carbo. This ADO only has a vertical stem with a longer reach so it won't be as comfortable. The only reason I'd consider buying this ADO is if it can be unlocked for the speed and go faster than 30mph. If that is the case then it is attractive to me. I want a balance between speed, lightness and portability.
345Wh is plenty imho, real range should be around 80km, how much would you like? I think for a list mile vehicle or commuting this is more than enough, but I guess if you only want to charge it every other day? ~ Chris
100 km is actually an overkill for a commuter or city bike because most distances are under 10 km. If you need to travel 20+ km on a bike, then another type of bike is recommended. Those go up to 45 km/h legally, but you have to have a driving licence, a number plate, get insurance, and wear a special helmet. Those cost several thousand EUR but most rarely go above 100 km range.
I've been riding this bike for about a month th-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.

Are there any theft protections like an alectronic lock tied to the registered app or an alarm that can be set if it is moved without the registered phone with app opened nearby or a tracer so you can follow it if it is stolen? Just one gear? No protection on the belt so cloths could get in there and get stuck? The back mud protector seem to be a little short for it to be a good protection.16 Kg I would not say is super light as there is already one foldable e-bike around 10 Kg (Vello). Anyhow interesting to see what the price will be on indiegogo.
Thanks for your suggestion! I will feedback your suggestion to the product department.It has no gears and is a modern single speed belt drive with a torque sensor.The Carbon Belt has an efficient rotation system and will not get stuck; The rear fender will have a metal option on the igg; If I remember correctly, Vello is more than 3000 Euros.
In sämtlichen Videos, die man bisher von diesem eBike sehen konnte, haben die Fahrer den Sattel viel zu tief eingestellt. Es sieht immer so aus, als ob sie in der Hocke fahren. So sitzt kein normaler Radfahrer auf dem Bike. Sattelstütze wahrscheinlich zu kurz konstruiert. Fehlkonstruktion! Dann noch eine Frage: Ist das ein Singlespeed eBike, oder gibt es eine Gangschaltung?
Sieht auch zu mir so aus.. ist nicht richtig eingestellt, oder ist nicht genug einstellbar?
It's a single-speed e-bike with modern carbon belt and torque sensors. Of course there is no problem with the design, you can adjust the height that suits you according to your own height.
Do we need licence to ride in UK? As my taxes need to pay?
looks like the 40% discount is up. bummer..
This is not the first foldable lightweight belt drive ebike… please check your info first, accuracy of information is key… Carbo has been out there much longer and is lighter than this bike with a carbon fiber frame. In fact this bike is dangerously closely modeled after the Carbo model… It is almost identical
Shame they don't have an option with gears 😢
Is there any ebike this guy doesn't like? He seems overly enthusiastic about all of them.
these bikes are heavy af i have one mine came without phone holder and pump.
⚡⚡⚡
hmmm looks almost identical to the Carbo X but a thousand dollars cheaper.
Looks like a replica using cheap components😂
No little stand under the front drive cog to protect it when folded, it sits on the chain cover. 👎
Seat is far too low if thats the maximum.
Appear to be ghost pedaling at low speed, pity no gears. Otherwise great bike
yes, Above 22km/h, high cadence will occur.
of course x 100+
Alloy wheels should have been on this bike, spokes require too much maintenance.
Seems very quiet.
Not true. The Carbo X has been out for several years and has a carbon belt, carbon fiber frame and is foldable. ADO copied their whole design basically. I've owned a Carbo X and Carbo S for several years and highly recommend them. No need to wait for this ADO Air bike.
They may be similar in design, but the Ado has more range, and if you get it on their crowdfunding page now it's significantly cheaper.
Totally agree. It’s dangerously similar to the Carbo bike. How is this even allowed…?
@@Jordan-cl9xr It's cheaper due to much cheaper parts. The Carbo X is premium Japanese carbon fiber and practically indestructible. I've owned one for over 2 years and it is still running like day 1. I put it through extreme stress testing, riding down hills, off jumps, in all types of weather conditions in NYC and I never had problems with it at all. The Carbo is also about 5 lbs light than the ADO, which is significant if you have to lift it up several flights of stairs anytime you want to use it. Plus you can get an angled stem to sit more upright, which is more comfortable on the Carbo. This ADO only has a vertical stem with a longer reach so it won't be as comfortable. The only reason I'd consider buying this ADO is if it can be unlocked for the speed and go faster than 30mph. If that is the case then it is attractive to me. I want a balance between speed, lightness and portability.
It is indeed 90% similar to Carbo X. This business practice does not seem very ethical.🤣
Too much bike and not enough electric. My NIU has a 72v 65ah battery goes much further and faster. Foldable is good though.
345Wh is plenty imho, real range should be around 80km, how much would you like? I think for a list mile vehicle or commuting this is more than enough, but I guess if you only want to charge it every other day?

Samsung battery with a 100km range, which is more than enough for commuters
100 km is actually an overkill for a commuter or city bike because most distances are under 10 km. If you need to travel 20+ km on a bike, then another type of bike is recommended. Those go up to 45 km/h legally, but you have to have a driving licence, a number plate, get insurance, and wear a special helmet. Those cost several thousand EUR but most rarely go above 100 km range.
@@TechMagnet You should know 80km is BS, you will get half of that. The battery is not big.
That’s not really a fair comparison right? This is a bike not a scooter
Too bad that it is made in China.
Keine Federgabel, gefederte Sattelstütze nicht montierbar wegen Akku, schlechte Übersetzung, schlechtes Fahrrad 😮 🤢🤮

I can't wait for more lighter and more powerful e-bike
I've been riding this bike for about a month th-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.
