This Foldable Fat Tire E-bike Is A BEAST: ADO A20F Electric Bike Review

[@gregoryone90]

This bike is a common mass produced Chinese product that companies purchase cheaply, amend certain features such as the headlight the wheels and seat but at the end of the day the components are all the same. I have one in black except mine says “lectric” on the side. After all of that though the bike is good. The built in removable battery is great. It’s definitely a rigid bike. I’ve gotten roughly 1000 miles out of line and it’s still going.

[@stevemann7073]

It's a great bike built like a tank. Even drivers give me respect when I'm out on the road with mine.

[@GabrielMoreiraHylian]

Can you give the name of some of the other names this bike goes bike? I'm lloking for the cheapest available

[@DaveZee01]

@@GabrielMoreiraHylian Good question Gabriel. Did you find any other name brands?

[@dtz1000]

It's a good ebike but being only 36V really lets it down.

[@WotsisFace]

@@dtz1000can u upgrade the battery?

[@Qlirim0507]

The EU version can't not speed upgrade?

[@Weedfan666]

Hey, how tall are you? Will it be good for someone 2m tall?

[@yazanhamadalla6374]

Hi martijn Is this bike need driving licence or Helmet in the Netherland??

[@mandarello]

Thank you for the video, how tall are you, and what whould you say is the limit in that regard when it comes to this bike?

[@robertr1422]

is it good for hill driving??

[@abrahamtaveras1430]

So again how much does the pole that holds the steering wheel cost .it just looks like The ADO. Any steering wheel pole will do. Please I need a quick reply. I hade an accident ran into a car. The steering wheel pole got bent. It was my fault. So I have to pay the owner to get it fixed.

[@abrahamtaveras1430]

Hey this Abe. I would like to know how much does the pole that holds the steering wheel can you give me and estimate.

[@MarshallsMusic]

What rating is labelled for the motor please ? So if I ordered the international , would the rating be labelled as 250W or 500W ? In uk it must be labelled as 250W to be be legal . Thanks.

[@MarshallsMusic]

I can answer my own question now. It’s labelled as 250w on the hub.

[@arians22]

@@MarshallsMusic So did you risk and ordered the international one? I am thinking of buying it but I am scared that in Germany police may be pain in the ass... How it is after some months?

[@moalay64]

Hi Man, excellent video. I have a question as I leave in the UK, I have to buy the EU type. Can I unlock the speed on the EU version or i CAN'T? HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU

[@Marsh1983]

Think it said in the video only international version can.

[@dtz1000]

Yes, you can unlock the EU version but it only goes to 22mph and is still underpowered compared to the Engwe Engine X because it's only 36V. If you buy it you will want to upgrade soon enough to the Engwe.

[@pittbrat7963]

@@dtz1000 i find the Engwe not as good as this one, i tried both

[@wolfgangh.9212]

Excellent Video!!

[@MarshallsMusic]

Hi Martyn . Your video reviews are great 👍 . I noticed the stand for when the bike is folded is bent on yours , was it like this when you received it ? Mine is the same when it arrived this week but it was clear that the box had been dropped by some height when noticing evidence of damage inside it. My crank plastic protector is also rattling and loose so assume that took a hit too. Rich 👍🇬🇧

[@georgeharrison-b1t]

how to fix front wheel locking if any one knows would be much appreciated thank you ado beast aa20f

[@abrahamtaveras1430]

Sorry I forgot to say how much does the steering wheel pole cost.

[@ziyaadmahomed2060]

Looks like a beast bike. Those tires are nice and thicc

[@joeyweston9001]

1 flaw. tires can get flat lol ill pass.

[@fender1000100]

@@joeyweston9001 All tires can get flat. It's the riding experience. Standard procedure when you get a fat tyre bike is to put slime in the tubes. I've been riding my A20F for 5 months. Had two punctures both self sealed with the slime. But the riding experience is well worth it. So smooth and comfortable. Especially with my big saddle with the backrest. It looks like the batman bike come to life just awesome. And 26mph speed.

[@DEPatriick]

@@fender1000100 do you have a link for that saddle?

[@dtz1000]

​@@fender1000100 This only does 26mph if you are going downhill. The top speed on flats is 22mph.

[@robg4412]

How long can the bike go for ?

[@dtz1000]

25 miles range on the top peddle assist.

[@Marsh1983]

How is it going up steep hills?

[@dtz1000]

It can go up steep hills but you have to put more effort than you would on other ebikes like the Engine X because the torque on this is only 43 NM which is not great.

[@ellenbitner9689]

Great deal awesome bike

[@101new]

Hi Martijn ,,, great video ,really love this bike , Im 1.98 m tall do you think bike would be ok for me ,, many thanks :)

[@jojjen4499]

Where do you buy these ADO bikes? I can only find them at like Bangood or Amazon market through Chinese sellers with shit reviews (even warnings).

[@WotsisFace]

The ado website..

[@justynssagan6156]

Can we upgrade it to a bigger battery like 36v 20amp 500w without charging the motor and the controller because the range for us is not good enough for long distances thanks 👍 is it possible your professional opinion well be helpful.pz this fool doesn't answer your question because he knows it's crap.

[@stevemann7073]

I just carry a spare battery in my cargo box problem solved. You cannot get a much bigger battery in the frame. 10 to 12 AH is usually the limit. But it's easy to remove the battery and load in a fresh one. That way you have over 20 AH on the road.

[@riley881]

@@stevemann7073 what cargo box u buy as just ordered one on bike to work

[@saas290]

No hidraulic brake system🙄

[@Xeltos]

Nice review so far! I ordered the white finish aswell. Is the recommended PSI really 25? When i contacted support a few months ago before buying the bike it was 1.4 BAR or about 20 PSI. I also thought the top unlocked speed was 40kmh not 45.

[@gaetanopeperoni2329]

You are right on both 20 psi max and 40 km max speed I have the new AF20+ great bike wish had a 48v battery tough as the motor 500w is too powerful for a 36v battery could get more torque and speed out of a 48v battery

[@fender1000100]

@@gaetanopeperoni2329 I've got 45kph out of mine. Thats enough for me.

[@HimothyBronson]

@@fender1000100 What so 28mph?? Must have been downhill on a perfect day? I say this as I have this bike and the fastest I get out of mine on a flat surface is about 23mph

[@spacedogx6694]

@@HimothyBronson think we are confusing top speed with max PAS vs no pas only throttle. :) think both are right, 38-40 throttle only, 45-50 with help. i have another fatbike but 4x the power, and i only get 60km/h. power really falls off when you hit those 40kmh. im sorry about the kmh, im european.

[@dtz1000]

​@@HimothyBronson You are correct. They are both talking rubbish. There's no way this ebike can go 45kph or even 40kph unless it's going downhill. Top speed is 22mph or 35kph when unlocked. 23mph if you are not too heavy.

[@dvdrwsor]

M1 PRO and M21 are way better. Hell, even the M1 has rear shocks, and they're all cheaper.

[@lizvickers7156]

The only problem with Chinese made e bikes is they may look great and strong but they use inferior metals. They are not as strong. After a while you will have problems with the metal and other things as well. I was looking into a cheap e bike from China but having seen someone doing a stress test on a Chinese part and it failed miserably I won't be buying.

[@dtz1000]

This one is very strong. I have used mine off road many times in woods and a forest and never had a problem with it. I have other issues with it that i mentioned elsewhere in the comments here, but strength is definitely not an issue I have with it.

[@brianbassettnumber1]

LOL! What a cute little capitalist you are Marty! Your parents must be so proud.

[@limenobatsos]

Hahaha 360wh with a torque of roughly 32-35 nm .... definitely you cannot call it a beast 😉

[@dtz1000]

The torque is 43 NM but it's still too low.
