Loved this video. Do you still have this ebike? I'm 1.83m. Do you think this bike will be a great fit for me? Or do you have another more awesome ebike suggestion for me? Just subscribed as I loved this review

[@zantigar]

I recently bought the L2 on Amazon for $800 total, free shipping. I've had it now for about 3 weeks, and I am BLOWN AWAY how great this E-bike is! I live in Los Angeles and during quarantine I've been able to zip around town with ease. I LOVE the simplicity of the controls and sturdiness of construction. But my favorite thing is the extraordinary capacity of the battery: I'm able to make trips around town for a full week on a single charge! I used to have an e-bike that used a lead acid battery, and it didn't even compare. This L2 is a super bike! The only improvements I could imagine would be to remove the 15mph speed limiter in the control unit, and have multiple gears instead of the single. But I understand that adding gears means adding more potential for trouble and maintenance issues, so I'm quite happy with the fixie. All in all, I'd have to say that, for what I got for the money, this has to be one of the BEST deals I have ever gotten in my life! And I think other people are getting wind of it - this happened to be the VERY LAST unit at the warehouse in New Jersey. They must have been going like hotcakes - although, this is the only bike of its kind I've seen in my town. Thanks again for the superb review which helped me make one of the best decisions in my life!

Hey, I been surfing youtube about fiido bikes, looks like you can unlock the speed limit , here is video kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWbCn2ebhJx_prM maybe it will help, I myself don`t have ebike so cannot test this out. Cheers :) I`m awaiting xiaomi bike, himo z16 or something, if reviews will be alright ,I might order one and join electric forces :D

[@jamesbarrymore5563]

I am really interested in buying the L2 because of the massive battery, but I am put off by the speed limit being 25kmh. I used to have an electric scooter that could reach ~31kmh on full charge. Do you know if you can de-restric the speed limit on the bike, similarly to the other Fiido bikes (D1/D2)? Have you done it?

[@zantigar]

@@jamesbarrymore5563 If you search through these videos, you'll find one where this reviewer (who is very handy with electronics) attempts to de-limit the speed in the control box. Unfortunately, his attempt fails, and we must live with the limited speed. If HE can't change it, NO ONE can. Luckily, I'm a photographer, and knew this going in - I bought this bike for careful inspection of locations, so I actually WANT to cruise at speeds slow enough for me to "stop and smell the roses".

Hi, nice video review.. Have you managed to unlock the speed limit on the bike yet ? Also I would have loved you to show the Battery in more detail/ size/ Wight/ diameter, the charging port, the locking mechanism. I noticed a Extra bolt at the back Of the battery but it’s not clear as you had the battery on the grass faced sideways. Please can you make another short video showing these details, and show how to unlock the bike or kill the sound alert if you have done this already. The bike is at a decent price now for the 20ah battery.. I’m thinking about getting it but just need to know a little more detail. Thanks

[@TechTronic9000]

The battery has ~ 7kg, has a key lock and a proprietary 2 prong connector. The sound alert can be killed quickly be removing it as it has a single plug. What is interesting is the fact that that sound alert can be probably be also be programmed as an alarm but there is no such instructions...and no I haven't managed to unlock it yet.

[@intuitiveempath8988]

TechTronic9000 ok 2 prong connector, that’s a shame, as I wonted to use the battery/ Battery case on my samebike that has a 3 prong connector from the controller to the battery,. I would have still liked to just see it on video a little closer , also to see what the charging port looked like. Have you tried unlocking the speed limit on this bike yet?. It’s a simple process.. my samebike is very similar to this bikes design, to unlock it is the same process. I’m getting 37km ph when the bike is unlocked. If you did this, maybe it would kill the alarm anyway without having to disconnect wires it would be interesting to find out.

With my other model. I went into the p settings and changed to p100, than than followed the same process of holding left brake and throttle for 5sec turning off and on the bike.

Maybe a kellys as they make good sinewave. The problems is that there are a lot to program to the new controller such as phase angle, hall position, etc, so it needs a good controller and lots of tinkering to make this work ok.

Hi, Thanks for the nice review! I have two questions Which do you recommend L1 or L2? -Is the back suspension really worth it (considering that it add weight)? The rear seat is mostly useless so I expect the rear rack is more useful. Is it possible to use the rear seat as a real seat when the bike is not moving? Is L1 or L2 worth the extra money in comparison with D2S ? Personally I think the fornt suspension is more important than the rear one.

[@TechTronic9000]

The L1 and D2 have a weaker 250W motor, while the L2 has 350W so it has more torque. Each of the models have their own advantages. The D2 is great around the city as it's light, the D2S is good in areas with bigger slopes, the L1 is good for long range in flat areas, while the L2 is a good all-rounder for worse roads and hills, etc. I would personally love a D2s with front suspension also, but there isn't one existing yet.

First, the motor doesn't seem to freewheel - it is much harder to pedal compared to a normal bike. Do you think all Fiido motors are the same (geared motors)? I was also hoping pedalling to assist the motor would be a feasible way to extend the range. But the pedelec mode is crap. It only helps you up to 12-15 km/h and at higher speeds the motor not only is not helping, but is seems to act against you. It works well in throttle mode, but I expect the range to be limited, and it was precisely range I was after.

The D1 is a simple, basic model, the D2 and D2S, L2 and M1 have freewheeling geared motors. For the D1 I'm not sure. Check also the brakes and bearing. Ultimately you could upgrade the controller with a better one and get a proper pedalec sensor.

@@TechTronic9000 hi , I hope you are well. I finally got my fiddle L2 and I am very happy. Now after 2 months daylily use he is blinking all the time when I ride. Do you have a idea why? I am covid risico group member and with this I go to work. Is my battery broken? Thanks so much. Greetings from Vienna, monika

[@monikanasufi2868]

I forgot: it blinks low mid high....all 3 together blinking ...battery is full

[@chefeazy-e6674]

Teck I have a question what do you think is better to you fiido l2 os d2 which is better? Please get back to me...

[@TechTronic9000]

Long range, power, comfort = L2, short trips (commuting to work) the D2 or D2s

[@kenswireart88]

Bro you did two videos on this bike is there a reason y u did? Are they two different bikes that look similar? I want to purchase this one but I keep hearing you call the bike in your other video the d2 but in the title of both videos you call both bikes L2 so I'm confused

[@TechTronic9000]

They are different models, Fiido D2 and this one is L2, they might look similar but are totally different.

[@ardeanmagpayo]

How many charges can the battery take? And what do we do once the battery dies out (dead cells).

[@TechTronic9000]

The battery should take easy over 500 full cycle, maybe more, that would be roughly 50.000 km. If the battery dies it can be taken apart and fixed / replace cells.

[@superfighter32]

How many kilometers before it drains the battery?

[@TechTronic9000]

With the L2 you can get easy 60+km, if you don't ride it very fast, use some assisted mode then you can do 80+km.

[@monikanasufi2868]

hi i just ordered on banggood.com. there was only 1 shipping possibilitie. European railway direct mail. Do I have to expect tax payments? 😬thanks.

[@TechTronic9000]

If you are from Europe and yoiu have chosen European railway direct there are not going to be any taxes, but will take more time to get it as it slowly comes by train from China, through Siberia - Russia, etc.

how many km do you get on a single charge at 25km/h only throttle?

[@TechTronic9000]

Probably 60km+

[@obiecastro2482]

Bro,,,how many years before you change battery?

[@TechTronic9000]

Depends on how much you ride and how you care about the battery, considering that the bike has very long range the battery will also last a lot.

[@rorybyrne52]

How far does it go on a full battery charge in full electric mode?

[@TechTronic9000]

You can easy do 60+km.

[@docmo5854]

What's the best site to order from for someone living in Sweden? Do you have any discount codes? Thanks!

[@TechTronic9000]

Currently for Sweden the place to get it from here: bit.ly/36SJDNn It will arrive tax free for Europe and it slightly discounted currently. Sadly there are no longer coupons for this model as the stock is running out and the producer is having a hard time repaneshing them after the corona virus crysis.

[@PYE172]

what is the range on flat ground with power only doing say 10mph

[@TechTronic9000]

Probably 100km with 10mph (16km/h). I've did 25km with less than 1 battery bar from 5 which is amazing.

[@anio6865]

Where can I get a second battery for this bike ?

[@TechTronic9000]

Haven't seen a spare one but it easy to replace the internals, it just need to fit a regula li-ion pack that fits the space ;)

[@agogleuser7619]

Superb review! I wanted to buy this one but it was not available on ebay so I bought a D2S instead which I am very happy with.

[@TechTronic9000]

Thank you for your appreciation!

[@TheRobphobos]

I'm looking at the D2 or D2S. Is having the gears worth it ?

[@agogleuser7619]

@@TheRobphobos Yes definitely. 1) Especially if you are a slow rider like me 2) If the battery juice runs out you can use the bike as an ordinary bike much easier if it has gears. 3) From a stop I push off on pedal power before the e-power kicks in a short time later. Having one gear only the gearing is too high for pushing off on pedal power in my opinion.

[@tedwalker1370]

If you had faster gearing you could peddle it beyond the limiter. That would increase your range tremendously. You don't really need the low gears for slow traveling because the motor will help you get started while using the throttle.

[@TechTronic9000]

Low gear is good for helping the motor start off, thus increasing the range a lot!

[@anio6865]

Will the fiido L3 battery fit the L2 ?

[@TechTronic9000]

No.

[@dimitrisxl]

how many kilometers range does it make in poor electric mode??

[@TechTronic9000]

It will do easy 60-80km just on 100% electric.

About 7kg

push brake and start button together during 5 seconds. I think :). Or did you have discover it??

[@tonyglasstv2685]

I believe L3 can be speed derestricted? But not L2?

[@TechTronic9000]

I've seen some info about L3 being unlockable but I'm not sure mostly because there were a lot of fake speed unlocking videos floating around for D1/D2 etc done only for views and going downhill with the bike.

[@juegosconestebanjaramillo187]

What is the range on the battery? Over 40 miles on pedal assist?

[@TechTronic9000]

It will easy to 60km (40 miles) on full electric, with assist will do even more!

[@xklark46]

Great video! Do you have further considerations about this bike since the video was published 2 months ago? Maybe you can tell us if you found other cons or pros. And another question for you, do you think that the fiido L2 is the best fiido bike or is there something better out there? Thank you for your time and if you want to say anything else feel free to share your thoughts.

[@TechTronic9000]

I still enjoy it very much and also started to mod and upgrade it, fitted it with semi-hydraulic hybrid brakes, removed the annoying alarm and now working on making it faster (hopefully a lot more faster). Thus more videos with it and about it will come to my channel.

[@predraglazarevic7811]

Hello How tall are you. And does it fit people over 1.80

[@TechTronic9000]

I'm ~1.80 and this is just fine, both seat post and handlebar stem are adjustable so you ca sit high up and comfortable.

[@amenerstugard1894]

Aliexpress, ebay and various webshops.

[@joon888]

Hello what is the total weight of the bike and diameter of Seatpost thanks

[@TechTronic9000]

The bike has ~27kg

[@mickd6942]

You should drop the seat post not remove it when folding the bike other wise you might drop it on the chain ring as it does not have the protective u shaped guard on the bottom that other FIIDO bikes have

[@TechTronic9000]

Yes, but also takes less space with the seat post out

[@mickd6942]

TechTronic9000 , just ordered one , same colour , will give my D1 to daughter to use , first thing I will do is your alarm mod

[@chefeazy-e6674]

Tech it's me again I still have the same question for you which one of these do you think is better fiido L2 os fiido D2?

[@TechTronic9000]

For short trips around town i like the D2 as it's lighter, for longer trips i prefer the L2 because of the much more bigger range. The L2 has also more power and it's more comfortable.

[@roamereasy9737]

L2 would be better because you can remove the battery pack for recharging if you live upstairs.

another great video! do you know if spare batteries are available and where?

[@TechTronic9000]

The battery can be opened and it's using a regular 18650 based pack so you can find rather easy one to fit the enclosement when the original one goes bad. As a big extra you can use LG cells and rebuild it for much more capacity.

[@Me-zw5pw]
