Raleigh Stow-e-way (stoweway) - Very slow and barely doing any assist
I remember that review, it was one of the reviews that actually motivated me to buy it. Looks like I need to give tredz a ring tomorrow and see what can be done. The lights on the battery do not stay on. You press the button at the top and it shows 5 lines and then after I don't know how much time, they go off. I never paid attention to it since I thought that's how it's supposed to be. If they are supposed to always stay on - then I might have an issue. Every time I end the ride, the battery green lights are off.

Yes, there are 4 levels of assistance Maybe I should take it back. I also noticed that if I'm going uphill and in a lower gear, the rear hub or motor makes a clicking noise. This goes away when back on flat again but that surely shouldn't happen. Yes, I'm always on 4. I thought it's slow because I'm too big for it... but then it says it can cary up to 125kg so I should be ok. I bought it new from tredz on interest free credit. still paying for it but because it's so troublesome, it's not bringing me any joy and I avoid using it which is a shame

Raleigh Stow-e-way (stoweway) - Very slow and barely doing any assist
I bought this e-bike in December and I'm so disappointed... I can't seem to get much out of it. When cycling downhill the engine shuts off. Because of the small wheels - it is slow When going uphill - the engine barely kicks in, you have to go very slowly for it to do any assistance and the moment you push a bit faster - it switches itself off. It seems slow and lazy and I'd really want to make it go faster or at least put more power when going uphill. At the moment I feel like I still have to do 80% of the work and won't go faster than an average walking person. I'm 98kg for reference. Anyone had any similar or different experiences? Is there any way I can make it kick in faster and give more assistance? I'm planning to use it in another country so not worried about UK regulations on speed. Thank you!

Fiido D11 Folding e-bike - A sort of review
Thank you. That's good to know. Did you ever try to take your D11 on a train. How does it behave when folded? Do you use any aditional straps if for example you want to push it along a platform? Would both wheel spin and go in a straight line?

Fiido D11 Folding e-bike - A sort of review
I'm considering it, but I'm 6ft 3 and worried it will be too small for me. Any other tall riders out there who can tell about their experience or suggest other options in this price range?
