Reading between your various threads here... You're 5'8" tall, with an oversize Scott XL framed 29" wheeled bike, with a BBSHD 1000 watt motor... and you're thinking of taking this on the Docklands Light Railway and Jubilee Tube? Even if it were allowed, how are you going to manhandle it up and...

Yes, I ordered a D11 direct from Fiido. If you click on the button marked "shipping", it tells you the bike ships from their own UK warehouse and there isn't any shipping fee for M21, D21, or D31(X) models. 8% shipping is added for other models at the checkout.

That's a really good find. Roux claim to be (were?) a British company, and just Googling shows there are a number of Roux dealers still around. Surely one of them know where Roux are and/or where to obtain replacement batteries from? The battery isn't of a common style (at least here in the...

That is a very good price given the battery seems to be up-to-snuff too. Very lucky. Glad you're enjoying it too. No, I didn't mean car boot fairs either! I meant putting your folding bike in the boot of your car to travel to an otherwise too distant location, and cycling from there... I do...

Fiido have two versions of a fat-tyre 20" wheel folding ebike - the 250w 36v M1 and the 500w 48v M1Pro - both cadence sensored. The 500w version outsells the 250w version by some margin, and the biggest complaint with it is the uncontrollable torque from start. They've just launched a new...

Yeah, but the Radrunner is 29kg net against 36kg net (the Radrunner not including the metal front basket, HD light or wooden deck board - they're all Radrunner extra cost items). And the Radrunner has no suspension fork or seat suspension, has no gearing at all, and has a much smaller battery...

I've read there'll be a UK/EU legal version available from April time with a 250w motor. It may be both 250w & 750w versions are made available, as with their D31/X model; the US 350w/20mph version is available alongside the UK/EU legal 250w/15.5mph version and either can be bought in the UK...

You were lucky finding one second hand, as the price when new has risen by about £100 in just a year. It's a very solid, well thought out little folder IMHO. There's plenty here struggling with normal bikes and transitioning to e-bikes (me included). Doing the car-boot thing, I'd highly...

There're a few good cycle/e-bike shops scattered throughout Norfolk. From Lynn though, I'd be inclined to head to Peterborough (not much further than Fakenham, just in the opposite direction) or Cambridge (cycling mecca given the University). Rutland Cycles (for example) have stores in both...

That's good mileage for a 36v 10.4Ah battery made with "not-premium" cells. I have read a few tales of D4S owners removing the speed limit and riding on throttle only and then being suprised the range wasn't as advertised! One thing with all Fiido bikes that seems common is you need to keep an...

For the majority of punctures, you don't need to remove the wheel - front or back. Once you've located the puncture, you only need to remove the part of the tyre from the rim where the puncture actually is, and even then just enough of one side to slide out the part of inner tube that needs...

The problem usually is no more than the slightly odd way the battery LED's work. You can leave it on charge for 8 hours and still only one LED lights. That's normal. You press the button for 2 seconds to switch the battery on or off. The 1 LED shows it's working. If you press and hold the...

Can you do that with Shimano batteries, just connect +/- volt to the charge port? I thought there'd be some kind of smarts like there is with Bosch to prevent you doing that?

I only used a 2-gang switch because that's what I had spare in the shed, and I only used any switch at all to stop sparking when connecting the lamps to the battery. When I later added the wattmeter, because it was a 2-gang switch, one switch was used to disconnect the circuit completely, one...

If you look at the spring, the ends have bigger windings. It can have a tendancy to "screw" or pull it's way through the frame holes. In the extreme, it can get trapped and distort to the point you can't fold/lock the frame back together (or so I've read). You can buy new ones for £6 from Fiido...

I've no idea what they are for. BL03 isn't current anymore, possibly updated to the BL15 & BL520 rack batteries when CanBus came out. AFAIK, TranzX CanBus ALWAYS uses a mini-USB socket and the earlier 12CBus digital systems needed the adaptor into which the mini-USB cable plugs. If you haven't...

That is a shame. It means you'll need to find a Raleigh Dealer with the Logix adaptor that connects between the display and that controller. There was a time as recently as a year or so ago you could buy that adaptor for £45, but looking now I can't see them anymore... given they're only needed...

The wattmeter vfr400 suggested is the blue one here. It's worth using IMHO for the info it gives you, but especially total capacity over a full discharge. Yes, they're Phylion SF06's, the same as Halfords Carrera but without the smart BMS's. The 4 centre slots are connected if you have the...

Is this a Badger?... It's definitely not a cow!

Fiido ebikes are pretty simple. All the wiring connectors are plug matched or colour coded. The whole idea are Fiido are in China, and many of their customers aren't. Without local dealers to keep prices low, Fiido make their ebikes simple enough so most everyday folk are able to fix them with...
