I checked out mivice. The controller must be custom programmed to allow locking of the battery, that Malaysian 15kph annoying beep every few seconds which can be enabled/disabled from the keypad, and generally disabling the electrics... and that it works with a Yolin display rather than their...

Yes, I re-read your previous thread here and get the picture. I'm not sure the TS is different (it's a common part used in many Fiido bikes), just the controller due to the extra functionality added by the keypad, and the way it's programmed for the D31 350w AKM motor being higher wound. Of...

If you don't want the keypad locking, why would you change the controller? I don't understand what benefit the X controller might offer over the D21 one? Electrically, both bikes use the same torque sensor and the same display, similar seat-post batteries, just different motors. I'm just curious.

Oops. Sounds like you've bricked it. Hyena's own advice is to take the bike back to an authorised dealer (Halfords?). They have the Dealer Service Tool software which, if you're lucky, may recover it. Interestingly, you can download the Dealer software from Hyena's own site, but whether you...

I always thought that Green looked a bit too urgent, but if that's a recent pic your Strada it's still looking good after 7000 miles! And the M16 motor still appears on TranzX's website; 8 years in production must be some kind of mid-drive record. My own M16 still rides great/faultlessly too...

The Volt Regent would be a better comparison than the Burlington in that it's a step-through which uses the same Bafang M200 motor as the Peak Trail. Interesting to see that - finally - some manufacturers aren't all following the herd, and Volt too have dropped the Shimano Steps in favour of...

I don't follow closely Fiido's M range, but as I understand it the M1 is road legal 36v 250w cadence sensor, the M1 Pro is 48v 500w cadence sensor, and the M21 is 48v 500w but marked as being a 250w motor with torque sensor. The M1 Pro has a reputation for shooting off uncontrollably (some say)...

Yes, the whole bike is pretty rigid and unforgiving which for most uses is I think a good thing, but not riding rough ground. There's a stretch I ride over fields on my D11 which is just manageable standing out of the saddle. Ridden on my larger wheeled 700c hybrid e-bikes it's SO much easier -...

The kickstand scratch is likely the left crank hitting it when the stand is down and the pedals are rotated backwards (mine has the same scratch - self inflicted!). The chain being off and the gearing slightly misaligned could be the box being manhandled during delivery - easily sorted (lots of...

Maybe I missed something in this thread, but I'm curious as the OP didn't say... Is this yet another example of a 2000w DD motor drawing 400amps of current climbing a 1 in 1 hill? And it's melting the wiring? And we're surprised? What is it you're using?

Yes, the Fiido D11/21 "trolleys" in that it can be pushed along in folded form. It's demonstrated in the ebiketips video I posted on my Fiido D11 review. The Btwin 500e is a pretty limp 24v system to carry a 6'4" rider weighing 108kgs. The Fiido is far better at 36v and 120kg loading, but I'd...

£310 for a re-celled 36v 11Ah battery (given it's CANbus) - if they're pukka Samsung/Panasonic cells being used - is pretty fair IMHO, especially as a bike like this would today probably cost maybe £1500+ new? The bikes would be easily re-sellable for a profit with new Li-Ion batteries as...

I've since seen that magnetic frame catches only solve part of the problem: Yes, they hold the main part of the frame together, but the handlebar/stem is still left flapping in the wind. A single, simple bungee cord solves the whole problem, not just a part of it.

There is an adjustable stem extender that fits the existing clamp and does the same job without modifying anything... but it's not that one. It's made for Brompton bikes: It fits the Fiido clamp too.

Most are telescopic - including Fiido's other bikes - but not the D11/D21. Possibly to help achieve that reduced 17kg overall bike weight? A riser bar is I think a far better option as: 1) It can increase or reduce reach as well as add height 2) A carbon bar doesn't cost much more than...

This is a standard rack for a 20" wheeled bike. Decathlon sell one that's cheap and fits, but is steel and weighs 1kg. This is Aluminium Ali/Ebay/Amazon, weighs 500gms, and only costs a few pounds more. There are bosses in the frame which are threaded to accept the fixings supplied. The rack...

I don't think you'll have any issue at 5'7. It's quite an upright riding position. I'm 5'10ish and could ride it fine, but I chose to add a 50mm riser bar which when rotated can add height or reach, or a bit of both depending on how you angle it. It's just preference to suit my own riding style.

I bought mine directly from the Fiido website. It ships from their warehouse in Bath by (IIRC) a 48hr courier service. There are a handful of authorised UK resellers too, Bicycleland being one.

Your picture from ebay is an early mock-up pre-production shot... that bike doesn't even have any wiring so it won't be going anywhere! They do only offer the one version, and do include all the items I mentioned as standard. listed on Fiido's own web-page. Costs certainly have shot up: The D11...
