Only 172.4kg uphill? No sweat for my 20" wheeled Dahon Helios P8 BBS01B folding bike conversion, but with pedalling, with the controller limited to 15A and 36V battery. Haven't tried the same yet with 20A, I expect it'd be easier and faster, battery permitting.

Serious cargo hauling..
Lean into them corners lad, hehe !

That's not uphill, simply sped up video in a flat car park, and only 272.2kg of fatsos plus bike weight. That front hub motored thing'd be crap uphill crawling with greasy fatsos like that. The only thing about that bike I approve of, are it's 20" wheels. Twenty inches satisfy, and that's why I'm still married.

New version of Ado Air 20 gets Bafang's automatic 3-speed motor

We don’t know if you’re keeping track of this, but ADO have launched yet another version of their urban folding e-bike. The big change with the ADO Air 20 Ultra is an automatic three-speed motor that brings with it a refreshingly moderate increase in price. When I tested the original ADO Air 20...
