Just tested the switch: video Let's see what Fiido says next

Fiido have come back with: "Can you cut the two white wires and short them together?Because I h suspect that the on button of the battery is bad." quote unquote

We opened the cover! (total novices) Fiido says to check the fuse, and in their videos, the fuse is a very obvious blade-fuse thing on the red cable. 2 things we noticed: 1. My seatpost doesn't seem to have an obvious fuse like in their videos. The cables lead to some plastic-wrapped...

out of interest, where can a BMS be ordered, if the issue is that?

If it's any help, here's a preliminary test we did, that we sent to Fiido before they replied sayingto open it up: D21 battery Test

Thank you for the advice. The bike was purchased from a local vendor which has since closed shop, they couldn't compete with manufacturer's direct sales... Fiido support have come back saying it's out of warranty, but suggested some tests. As the battery doesn't power on at all (pressing...

Hi! Has anybody with a Fiido experienced the following? Normal behaviour: 1. Charger in unconnected state (charger's LED shows Green) 2. Connect the charger to battery (charger's LED goes Red) 3. When fully charged, Charger LED is green again. In my bike, there seems to be an issue: 1...

True, i also found that some retailers (Vive Scooters in my case) sometimes offer the bike with a discount for direct sales, but this discount does not apply via the cycle scheme. In the end I bought directly just to save time, the difference was £80

May I ask which aftermarket shock you got for the rear?

"Less paperwork to be filled in on the shop's side" was what I got told by a bike shop friend. I have no direct experience, personally.

I'm told that Green Commute Initiative is a decent alternative to the cycle-to-work scheme, and that it's quick and easy for shops and customers to register with.

Vive Scooters was the shop i got mine delivered from

I believe it's a twist throttle (with sustained power) that's not allowed. The D21 has a thumb throttle. There's printed text on the motor itself stating 250w. They sell such stickers on Ebay though. But with the tiny motor size it's pretty clear it won't be a bike physically capable of...
