Hi I feel the need to share my experience as people often search for videos about products they want to buy. After buying this bike brand new and using it 5 times to go from home to the tennis court 1km from my house, when I was ridding it back home, the welds on the steering column between it and the handle bar cracked open and the handle bar detached completely from the steering column. I had several traumas on legs hands, head and shoulder and an acromic clavicular dislocation level 5. Now Im gonna have to do a surgery to fix my shoulder and as I imported this shit from another country there is no company I can sue in my country. I recommend you all to keep an eye on this welding and replace it with something safe or you might not be as lucky as I was
This bike is available to buy everywhere,and apparently very popular worldwide.If you can't put together such a simple machine, maybe you should walk ...and don't forget to tie shoelaces otherwise you will accuse shoe marker to produce bad quality 👟. 😂😅😂
I bought a 1000 watt hub motor and 10 amp battery and put them on a Walmart bike. @20 miles cruising range without pedaling, top speed 52 mph (80 kph). Too fast. Total cost $900. But I added Bluetooth speakers, LED lights, folding baskets, etc.

Great review. Bought one from GearBest 10 days ago. Managed to find a code that cut £200 off the price that ships to the UK. Sold my M365 scooter to get this.
That's it. Under UK law, I can only ride the scooter on bicycle paths or private land/parks etc. I bought it originally to help me get to the local supermarket via cycling paths, but since moving home, there are none of these paths here and getting to work is not going to be possible, even if I decided to ride on the pavement as there are too many pedestrians walking. It was a choice solely based upon the legality of the scooter. I'm actually putting myself in danger by going to ride the cycle on the roads but I'm not one of these people who will ride a scooter/bicycle on the pavement as its not only illegal but also shows lack of respect towards pedestrians. The UK has excellent public transport links, but in terms of driving and cycling, it is well behind Germany and the Netherlands, despite the Mayor of London trying to make London more 'Greener'. If I lived in Germany, I would of kept it. Who wants to pedal on a cycle when you have a modern day vehicle that can go 16 mph non stop with just a simple push off from the ground.
interesting to hear your logic. This sounds like trolling but really isn't intended as such; why not use a good non electric bicycle? I'm really interested in the electric technology, but am not sure why healthy young people would us them as a good normal bicycle is already so efficient. I rode a scooter in London for a while and found cycling less stressful and better for my health.
€499in France now.going to look at one tomorrow to replace my Fiido D2S mainly because of the 14.5kg weight. My Fiido is 19.5 kg but does have throttle
*_Hi Linus!_* *_I've been following you from a long time now and I have to say that I like your videos more than any youtuber on the planet. You have the best combination of quality and content. You deserve to have at least 1M subscribers bro. Have a great day!_*
Just bought this bike, seeing its been 2 years you prolly bought the bike or got something else but, this bike is amazing. Hills that made me sweat just by looking at them now feel like normal straight roads.
The part that connects the main tube with the back end of the bike looks like it's the weakest link, yet the most important since it will likely be exposed to the highest forces. Scary.
any tips for the magnet? i cannot roll my qicycle in fold because the magnet cannot hold the tire properly.. it always get loose whenever i try to push it
Nice review! I regularly ride a road bike and this steering looks twitchy to me in your review. Do you ride bigger bikes and how twitchy/stable did you find cruising on this?
I know almost all articles refers to the QiCycle as from Xiaomi, but this ebike is not made or sold by Xiaomi. Xiaomi even issued a press release disclaiming any association with QiCycle.
Nice video but : - Only city bike should be equipped with kickstand - Name the metal used, steel / aluminium ? - Forgot to mention the bike weight - Brakes looks awful, single pivot front brake, really ? - Bikes looks really small for long legged people (knee touching arms) - How many gear this bike have ? - Have I told you about that music at the beginning haha ? Looks like a great bike for $500 but not for much more tbh
Hi, do you mind confirming so we can understand how this would fit. What is horizontal length across (in cms) from seat post to handle bar post (where they join into horizontal frame)? Height of handlebar from ground? And as at 1min 59secs, the length across from handle bar post to seat post (if seatpost is same height as handlebar)? Thank you.
Can you ride the bike without the battery in it? If I can, I might be able to take it on a plane as carry-on luggage ( weight limits). Await any answers.Thanks
Hello, I'm confusing about the xiaomi QiCycle product, I've seen some products which have the "EF1" letters of this bike and others that don't. So I question, is there only one model about this bike Xiaomi QiCycle or is there an older or newer model of it? I know that Xiaomi has more bike models, but related to this one in this video, is there more than one model of the bike showing here? Thank you.
Stupid question : do the lights work if the battery is not switched on? I need a bicycle to help me with slopes but do not like speed in flat or slope downhill...
I learn English to be "international". I do not see why non-Chinese cannot learn a bit of Chinese to be "international"? The good thing about the bike is you can carry a spare battery and it can give you over 80 km of work.
Thanks! it's much better because you don't need to make much effort to keep the balance. Also, you can ride it in all sorts of terrains. That's why I got it!
Quantum Information it has electric power assistent only. But best one. By torque sensor. The more torque you apply to pedals, the more assistance you get!
What are the type of series of this bike like may be you have the one suitable for woman @age of 40 and 50 above kind of this with three tyers or four tyers drivable with no fears or scary pedals balance wheel on the ground ??
Konata Izumi at that speed in the majority of countries it would be classed as a moped or motor scooter which would require a driving licence, tax, insurance and a helmet.
been looking at this on gearbest and it does look pretty good. i have a brompton folder and ive been looking at converting it to electric, it would be over £700 to convert it , i was thinking just buy this instead, has it been reliable?
@@waqasahmed939 do you think fiido is better? I really like fiido d2s but it's heavy and the battery is not removable! In my house we don't have a lift so I should carry it upstairs to the 3 floor...
When you imported something that is sold in its own origin country.....then complains the menu is in that country's language.....(insert meme Bike:"Am I a joke to you")
Well - as all people are build differently, the reall ? is not just how tall you are, but what is your inseam. Knowing that gives a guy an idea about the distance from seat to pedals will fit - and when subtracting inseam from height, it also gives a good idea wether seat to handlebar distance will suit you. In doubt about what I mean ? Ask Uncle Google about bicycle ergonomics - there is a little more to a bicycle's size than just your height ;o)
NEVER RIDE A BIKE ON SAND. even fatbikes don't handle sand very well. after each time you ride on the sand, you have to regrease your bot bracket, your headset, wash the sand out of nexus system, clean your chain. why do people even ride bikes on sand? its hard and it's unhealthy for bikes

thank you Scott! You're very helpful. I found the product now. I'll consider your recommendation for the battery size. Cheers!
Nice always wanted to try that.
Great review. Bought one from GearBest 10 days ago. Managed to find a code that cut £200 off the price that ships to the UK. Sold my M365 scooter to get this.
Great deal! I'm sure you will love it.
Can you share more details on why you swap for that scooter? For me it’s mainly the legal things as I think Bike is more legal and UK
That's it.

So much work and effort you put into this review! You are the best reviewer, Linus. Everything is clear, precise and presented in your own unique way!
Thanks a lot Tony!
How comfortable is it considering the size and tiny wheels?
It's great, but you need to replace the seat to a more comfortable one.
Great review, thanks. Just wondering, what happen if the battery dies? How heavy is pedaling the bike when there is no more juice in the battery?
Thanks! It's not hard to pedal without the battery. It's just like pedaling a normal bike
It’s very light for what it is so you won’t struggle to pedal along or anything
How's the uphill perfrormance? Would it be a good bike to ride in a hilly city?
Just bought this bike, seeing its been 2 years you prolly bought the bike or got something else but, this bike is amazing. Hills that made me sweat just by looking at them now feel like normal straight roads.
Damn now i want one. Great review Linus!

Can you drive the bike totally in electric motor, without pedalling at all?
just did this with a cable I ordered from this dude ruclips.net/video/RUqSfbm6BbE/видео.html
it works pretty well.
I got to say I love my T18 Zi you ji wuang, but that is a sexy bike, although mine came with mud flaps and kick stand. And duel disc breaks for 329.00

Yes, you can replace them. There are plenty of genuine Xioami parts available for sale! Check gearbest or AliExpress
is there a full electric mode or only pedal assist? thanks
your review is well done.... very clear video and nice review!!!!! keep it up!
I know almost all articles refers to the QiCycle as from Xiaomi, but this ebike is not made or sold by Xiaomi. Xiaomi even issued a press release disclaiming any association with QiCycle.
thats china for you
It is sold by Xiaomi. They even sell it in Xiaomi physical stores.
Link to that press release or youre lying. I just bought it from an official MiStore
This has a couple of great ideas and it seems made well. But It looks small. Also, I personally would not buy bicycle with smaller than 20 inch wheel.
Can the bike be pushed/dragged along in folded position? For example in the subway? I want to minimize the carrying to stairs only.
Nice video but :
- Only city bike should be equipped with kickstand
- Name the metal used, steel / aluminium ?
- Forgot to mention the bike weight
- Brakes looks awful, single pivot front brake, really ?
- Bikes looks really small for long legged people (knee touching arms)
- How many gear this bike have ?
- Have I told you about that music at the beginning haha ?
Looks like a great bike for $500 but not for much more tbh
Is the seat comfortable? It looks quite uncomfortable and hard to imagine to ride it for hours.
Wonderful review! I want to purchase this bike, but shipping to the US costs as much as the bike
Hi, do you mind confirming so we can understand how this would fit.
What is horizontal length across (in cms) from seat post to handle bar post (where they join into horizontal frame)?
Height of handlebar from ground?
And as at 1min 59secs, the length across from handle bar post to seat post (if seatpost is same height as handlebar)?
Thank you.
Can you ride it on rain and wash it as regular bike?

no one cares
A quality bike overall
its not a derailleur, its a 3 speed internal gear hub. and it is heavy. :)
Does it fits in the backpack?
hey nice review, can you tell us how tall you are more or less to know if my knees will touch the the grip?
Awesome review. It was just weird when you suddenly flipped the video.
Thank you! haha yeah it may look weird but I tried to use some different shots in this video
Anyone know where I can buy this bike in the year 2020 where the author stated the price for $500 - $800?
I learn English to be "international". I do not see why non-Chinese cannot learn a bit of Chinese to be "international"? The good thing about the bike is you can carry a spare battery and it can give you over 80 km of work.
Nice review! How does it compare to the electric skateboard/hoverboard you had?
Thanks! it's much better because you don't need to make much effort to keep the balance. Also, you can ride it in all sorts of terrains. That's why I got it!
So it’s not electric power?
Quantum Information it has electric power assistent only. But best one. By torque sensor. The more torque you apply to pedals, the more assistance you get!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing
I ended up buy one because of this video, hahaha
haha, awesome! Still using this bike!
What maximum weight for rider this bike, and Is this bike 16 inchi
How tall are you? I'm 6'3 not sure if it will fit me
make a review using this with a 15kg heavy backpack on a gravel trail pliss
also you can do a review of ONE MILE SCOOTER...i loved your video...very nicely produced
Does the reverse paddle works as a brake? I hate the reverse paddle as a brake so uncomfortable to ride
What are the type of series of this bike like may be you have the one suitable for woman @age of 40 and 50 above kind of this with three tyers or four tyers drivable with no fears or scary pedals balance wheel on the ground ??
Nice, Simple, Smart.. but No shock breaker? Forget it..
I hope next one would be fully electric so you don’t paddle at all if you are lazy.
Increase the range and faster, 30 miles per hour would nice.
gotta keep it street legal a vehicle must have some protection because falling off of a 30 mile per hour would be a pain unless you are well padded
Konata Izumi at that speed in the majority of countries it would be classed as a moped or motor scooter which would require a driving licence, tax, insurance and a helmet.

How close were your knees to the handle bar?
Well - as all people are build differently, the reall ? is not just how tall you are, but what is your inseam.
