ADO Air 20 Pro Folding Electric Bike

Ich bin mit dem Fahrrad mehr als zufrieden.
Der aufbau war super einfach und in der Anleitung einfach und verständlich erklärt.
Es fährt sich einfach schön und reagiert sofort, ich liebe es.

Das einzige Problem war die Anlieferung durch die Spedition Dachser. Sie kamen ohne Ankündigung und war deshalb nicht anwesend, musste deshalb eine neue Lieferung vereinbaren.

Ansonsten war alles super.

We just had our first 25 mile ride, and we LOVE our new ebikes!!!
These are our 3rd set of bikes as the fat tire bikes were getting too heavy for us to lift to carry on our RV. We were worried about going from 750w to a 250w motor. However, the 2 speed transmission and the torque sensing systems are simply amazing! We had no problems on the hills and actually found we were biking faster than our normal speeds. And as they are MUCH lighter, we will use them more often.
My husband found the seat comfortable, but I had to replace mine. And as I am on the short side, 5'1", I found the handlebars too far away, so i will need to make some changes.
HIGHLY recommend!

Het is een zeer degelijke fiets, ik was bang dat het een zwak frame zou zijn maar dat is totaal niet het geval. de fiets is zeer wendbaar en de ondersteuning is heel goed. de automatische versnelling werkt goed schakelt op en terug. Bij 20 km gaat hij naar de volgende versnelling zodat je trap snelheid weer naar beneden gaat. Zo rijdt je gemakkelijk grote afstanden. Ik ben zeer tevreden met deze fiets welke mijn eerste elektrische fiets is, een aanrader dus.

The battery runs out quicker than I thought it would, otherwise, everything works fine.

Love everything about it, apart from the saddle which would benefit by being sprung.

I ordered the bike and the money disappeared from my account but the bike never arrived within the given time frame. After I finally got a reply to my emails, I was told that the bike was out of stock but would be back in stock and shipped by the end of the week. Surely it would be easy enough to state whether the item is in stock or not on the web site?
The bike though, I am quite pleased with, it does everything I expected of it. There are one or two minor gripes though. The handbook I received is for the Air 20 but I have the Air 20 Pro, so some information applicable to the Pro model is non existent. There are no instructions on how to operate the lights etc. on the screen, you have to find out for yourself. My last point is that it is disappointing that the readout on the screen is only in metric. Call me old fashioned but I still work in miles, not kilometres, like the rest of the UK.
On the whole though I am pleased with the bike.

ADO Air 20 Pro Folding Electric Bike

ADO Air 20 Pro Folding Electric Bike

This bike is almost the unicorn of folding bikes. Belt drive, internally geared hub with electric assist, a robust frame and folding mechanism, fenders, rack and lights - and it's only 18kg.

Pros:
- The price is right. Seriously, this is a great deal. The only better folding bikes you'll find are the Brompton P Line and Tern Vektron at twice the price. The Vektron is also 4kg heavier, and neither of them have belt drives.
- The belt drive means no grease or constantly wearing drivetrain. I live in the Pacific Northwest and this is a must-have in the rainy, dirty winter.
- Folding is easy. The bike can be rolled around by the seatpost while folded.
- Small enough to fit on a subway/tram/LRT car either folded or unfolded.
- The rear rack is sturdy enough to use this as a cargo bike.
- The Bafang motor and Samsung battery seatpost allow your bike shop to maintain and procure parts for the foreseeable future.
- Headlight is StVZO compliant, meaning it has a well-defined beam shape to avoid blinding people. This is good if you bicycle on shared trail systems.
- Tern accessories will fit on the bike.

Cons:
- The electronics lack polish compared to the Bosch system. The IPS display doesn't show you battery percentage. There's no quick way to switch between ECO and SPORT on the display itself. The display dims when the lights are on, which makes it unreadable in daylight.
- Neither the battery seatpost or display have a charge indicator. You need to unplug the charger and turn on the bike to check the battery level.
- The bike is a little too big and a little too heavy to bring on a bus, in a crowded space, or while walking. If that's your use-case, an e-Brompton might be better.
- No cafe lock mounting holes. I had to figure out a bracket.
- No center stand mounting hole.

Unless you have a strong opinion otherwise, buy swept-back handlebars and matching seat so that you can sit completely upright. I recommend the Soma Oxford bars and Selle Royale Ondina or Holland Unitech seats. You may also want to get a Satori Aberhallo extender to bring the handlebars even closer to you. You'll use this bike every single day if you sit comfortably upright.

If this is your first e-bike purchase, go for it!
