An Electric Bike for Everyone? - Fiido T1 Utility Bike Review

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

First, I hope everyone enjoyed the video. I did make a mistake in my original thumbnail in regards to the Top Speed of the bike and put 50 MPH instead of 30 MPH. In the video, I never mention that incorrect top speed and I don't intentionally do clickbait thumbs, so I apologize for the mistake as I should've caught it.

[@Onlybhstrpes]

Well-done brother. Your correction on this and the title-change shows that you are indeed a very humble man. 👊🏽🇺🇸

[@LFTRnow]

The thumbnail is fixed (shows 30 mph now) but what about the distance - 90 MILES?

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

@@LFTRnow What about it? The company claims up to 150km of range. As myself and other e-bike reviewers constantly say about range, the “up to” is important because in perfect conditions, you could get that, but in most cases, it’ll be less.

[@adamantonczenko1435]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@y03y133]

Is the display easy to remove and change for something else, like app on the phone? How is the surfave treatment? Do it need extra treatment before use?

[@ReVolt_e-Vlogs]

I got this e-Bike 3 days ago & LOVE IT!!! 💯👍 It's definitely not a toy, I got it up to 33mph, with a few mods 50mph isn't too far off!!! I bought a ton of accessories for it already, like a matching green 3 piece saddle bag, new LCD display, gel seat cover, brake light/turn signal, alarm, GPS locator with stickers warning the idiots, & most importantly A 3/4 D.O.T Approved helmet & hard knuckled gloves, if you think that's overboard, if you drive around on your motorcycle around town, don't you wear helmets & dagger safety equipment, well this bike goes JUST AS FAST as any cities traffic is, if not faster, so screw worrying about "looking cool", hey home your kids like I'm trying to!!! 💯👍

[@stevemccormack9948]

Yes, I also got a full DOT motorcycle open-face helmet for my eBike. At first I though it was overkill but its really light and warm in the winter. What range are you getting with the T1?

[@gonagain]

Where did you find the correct display? If like to replace mine.

[@matt157000]

What did you use for your LCD display upgrade?

[@last7509]

seems 10 of these companies are making bikes at the exact same factory

[@ucitymetalhead]

Yeah what kind of display did you get?

[@RandyRides]

Glad to see one of my favorite KZbinrs reviewing ebikes, and out riding out in my city! 👍🏻😎

[@o0Spiller0o]

Did you mean 50+ KPH in your thumbnail? I got excited and watched the video and didn't hear any numbers close to that. You mentioned seeing 30MPH using throttle only but not 50MPH as the thumbnail suggests. Is there a setting or an upgrade to get the bike to 50MPH? Asking because I was amazed at that number and was very interested in hearing you talk about it. Thank you for the great content!

[@Onlybhstrpes]

Yeah... it was definitely click-bait mph numbers. No excuse for someone riding around in St Louis. 🤣

[@cyberlord64]

I don't think it would be a good idea to ride something without an all wheel suspension at 50mph. 30mph is more than enough for a bike

[@GT.Bugger]

He said 30mph on the throttle alone, so I imagine if you peddle also it'll go quicker?

[@Onlybhstrpes]

@@GT.Bugger in order for that bike to do 50+ mph, the bike would have to be in the 3000 watt range, with a 72 volt battery and controller to handle all that. So...🤔

[@azndrifter204]

Yeah got me a little angry

[@tmbvd3]

Great video of the bike! Review was informative and not padded for runtime. Cool shots of the arch!

[@labroomes]

Dude such a shame this channel is dying like this. The video quality is top notch.

[@DeviceOverDose]

30mph is more then enough speed. In NYC the speed limit is 25mph anyway... Love that flip up seat, reminds me of my easy torque ll e-bike. The flip up seat is a very convenient design... Definitely a higher end feature, and a perfect design in my opinion. Getting to my battery is such a pain in the ass!... Love the drone shots... Dope vid...

[@Pintexx]

I really like how small the bike is too. Definitely somewhat portable

[@westmcgee9320]

😆 Not that small.

[@k1llkyle463]

How would you compare the fiido t1 to the radrunner plus? I'm looking to get my first ebike. I'd be using it for the commute to work.

[@MBB31]

They seem similar. I went into Rad bikes the other day. I really like this t1 tho...

[@ajeetkanda8410]

We bought two of these and have enjoyed so much. Any issue we had was addressed immediately.

[@gerrypair3856]

I have order one and can,t wait to get it. I have Diabetes and lost my driver license a while back. Because of low sugars and want get out go places. I hope this E Bike fills the bill. Thanks for a great review.

[@iordanpetrov278]

Hello Soldier, Because you are the only one advertising this bike, I would like ti know if this bike will be safe for my job because I have just received an info with Fiino T1 broken in two when the guy was driving. My job is fast food delivery and I am a little confused right now buying this bike. I was just about to purchase when I received the info. Could you please let me know that they really safe to work with. Thank you very much in advance. Regards Iordan Petrov

[@alexcolcombe8438]

The original T1 had issues with the frame cracking in some cases. Fiido recalled those older models and released the Fiido T1 Pro which is the latest version and has a reinforced frame. As long as you're getting the latest Pro version you should be okay!

[@markjob6354]

Nice all around electric/pedelec bike. Looks like a winner for the money.

[@34malawiman]

Very helpful. Thinking of buying one in the UK. I have a 2000 watt converted hard tail that I ride as a commuter bike but am looking for one to do the weekly shop on and for my wife to use. This looks great.

[@SpecTechularGadgets]

This definitely seems like a solid choice for being my first ebike. Thanks for the awesome video.

[@DudeDeliver]

Did you get it? How is it?

[@tundeuk]

Excellent vid. Expertly presented.

[@jdmvette]

Why does your thumbnail say 50+ MPH? I knew before I even clicked that this wasn't the case and you confirmed it 2x saying that it goes 30MPH...

[@TheSpidersoftheworld]

People make mistakes he gave you your answer in the video. So what else are you asking for?

I paused the video, after I saw the arch. Are you from the Lou? Riding a bike in the Lou? I'm from Wisconsin, moved to STL 11 yrs ago, and I have tried a few times to ride to and from work, various routes and have damn near met my end, even on an ebike! So...I'm wondering; do you do any commuting? How have you found the respect of automobile driver's if so?!

[@lainevehar3916]

pretty complete, more than others I watched on the same bike.

[@johndyson6748]

I think in the UK this would be classed as a MOPED not an Ebike as it goes faster than 15mph and is more than 250 watts. Therefore it would have to be taxed insured and the rider would need a license.

[@34malawiman]

If you ride carefully you will most likely be just fine. I speak from experience commuting 30 miles a day mainly on country roads in the UK

[@paulcanton9827]

😂…..in theory your right. The 4000w scooters and e-bikes racing around London without number plates, tells me the law does not concern its self too much with the 250w limit. This bike would be completely ignored by the police if it was being ridden reasonably.

[@ucitymetalhead]

Man i swear you keep getting every bike i want.

[@smellyfish36]

[@shaunhall6834]

Nice review! I'm building an e-bike using a steel frame and a mid-drive motor. I think mid-drives are the best for the advantages they have over hub-motors.

[@SoldierKnowsBest]

Thanks and yea, I'm liking mid-drives too. Good to see the pricing coming down and they're becoming more common.

[@kissofthecobra3761]

I swear I'm done with E-bikes and honestly peddling isn't that bad but this? I don't know I could reconcider, Yes I have an E bike and figure it's my last one ever but this actually hits a sweet spot for me. In the I could maybe justify it If I really need an E bike but honestly still think nothing beats natural peddling power If you just want to get around as conviently as possibile.

[@760Artemio]

Do you know how many miles without peddle assist? I only see 90 miles but that’s with peddle assist

[@vfr1vfr2]

Range of battery is heavily dependent on rider weight, terrain, wind direction, etc... 250 lb. rider is not going to get close to 90 mile range with throttle operation alone. 120 lb. rider with flat terrain and tail wind.. maybe.

[@Wardaddy51-50]

Can you use another battery for it. I have a non proprietary battery from my current build. It's a 52 volt 23ah.

[@wizard1399]

What class is the bike: 2 or 3? Why does just about every review on ebikes leave out this vital piece of information that effects where the bike can be ridden?

If you ride somewhere, ex; friends house, appointment, movies, how many hours / days will the battery stay charged to get back to where you came from ? considering it had juice left in it ?

[@ReVolt_e-Vlogs]

It depends on weight of rider, road surface, if it's flat, mixed, or hilly terrain, if it's mostly stop & go, or riding dirt a long time without stopping. I got 57 miles on throttle alone, you're not gonna find any e-Bike at this price with that range & power! 💯 I owned it for 3 weeks, & actually got rid of my car, because an e-Bike just makes so much more sense, & saves me $1,500 a year in gas, probably $1,500-$3,000 a year in upkeep, let alone registration & insurance, it costs me $8.00 a year to power this thing, & maybe a few hundred in upkeep, it's a win/win, plus a 10% extra refund for buying an e-Bike on next years taxes, it's a win win all around!!! 💯👍

[@keberema78]

@@ReVolt_e-Vlogs wow that's amazing !! 57 mph just throttle that's pretty dang good, but what I meant was if you ride to a friend's house for a few hours and you only use like 20 to 30% of the battery will the battery stay charged after the few hours or days ?

Sadly they did not take advantage of the cast wheels and put tubeless tires on it. I am disabled, and no way would I be able to fix a flat on one of those super wide tube type tires. I also can't pedal, so the no pedal range would be nice to know. I have no need for speed, as long as it does 10 mph that's all I would ever need. Apparently Ebike manufacturers don't know that disabled people exist, or don't care. Many, including myself, would love to have a bike like that, with tubeless tires, a 10-12 mph top speed to conserve battery life, and without the bicycle gearing and pedal assist, because it would never be pedaled anyway.

[@matthewdow1327]

I have found that wider tires are WAY easier to fix than road bike skinny tires

@@Kaduyett I have been riding a 1970s gas powered pedal moped for many years, and have NO problems riding it. I use it for recreational riding. Since it is a registered, plated, and insured motor vehicle, I can call my roadside assistance if it breaks down. You can't do that with an ebike. The only reason I want an ebike is so I can ride it in bike lanes and on bike trails, where gas powered bikes are not allowed.

@@roybharrison The Fiido T1 does have a tall minimum seat height, due to its battery orientation being near vertical and the suspension seatpost. I'm about 5'9", 180 lb., I can nearly flatfoot to the ground while sitting on the saddle at the lowest position. With rider any shorter stature or inseam, it is likely that will find the minimum seat height on the Fiido T1 a bit tall. If you replace the suspension seatpost with a regular seatpost, you may be able to reduce the minimum seat height another 2" or so. If you are used to staying off the saddle when you come to a stop, then you would have no problem with the minimum seat height from the factory. I personally like to stay seated when I come to a stop at a red light.
