Thanks for your video and good job, I decided to buy a PVY Z20 PLUS, it looks really good.🤝

[@Techtablets]

Glad I could help

[@mizoalmasri3022]

as a mid drive e bike daily user to commute, I can say I appreciate the throttle function, as I don't have.. sometime in the morning when I'm going to my job, I just want to stop pedaling for a 2 minutes.

[@Techtablets]

It's nice for a little break but to sill keep moving!

[@-GHOST--1907]

Thanks for the video so nice its under 10 mins but with all the info

[@Techtablets]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kalsangtashi3040]

I appreciate your detailed and honest review👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Techtablets]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kraloyunoyunda1986]

Ill buy one soon as this looks better than the M1 Pro!

[@Techtablets]

It is better than that model yes.

[@blackpinklisa3427]

Now thats a cool looking ebike!! Thx for the video

[@Techtablets]

Glad you like it!

[@ConorSantry]

Cheers for the review! Any thoughts on this bike vs the Eleglide M2? Currently trying to figure out which would be a better buy

[@Techtablets]

The M2 Seema okay, maybe a better ride due to the larger wheels. But It almost looks like a cheap bike they just added a motor, controller and battery to it's

[@davidbrightman4384]

What parts would you upgrade or like to have seen already on the bike. Pedals, seat, brakes. What brands would you recommend

[@mohammadzein504]

The Z20 plus folds quite nicely for storage! And that closed hub 48 V motor, seems to pack some serious pulling power! 👍 I like that they have made a, well rounded bike that you pretty much cant fault in any specific area! That's fantastic indeed Chris👌. An unusual compressed and right to the point review! But still very enjoyable 👏

[@Techtablets]

Yes trying to make the videos a little shorter without cutting out any key info. But it's hard! The next one is 12 minutes I think.

[@mohammadzein504]

@@Techtablets Well Done Chris Sir! Your efforts are appreciated✌😊

[@bloodybarron]

Thanks for a great and useful video review! I am just wondering how tall are you? I am trying to see how low the sadle goes and what the fit is like. Thanks!

[@Techtablets]

I'm 180cm

[@pvyebike]

Suitable rider height is 165-200cm.

[@asan1050]

Thanks Much !....... yup

[@Techtablets]

Thank you!

[@thawnhatzaw2343]

Great video thank you. Would it be possible to add thinner, road specific tyres onto the wheels? Like 2 inch or 1.75 inch slicks? Thanks

[@Techtablets]

Well they have the Z20 Pro model for that I review here with thinner tires: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWW5l42vmZyBm68

[@HansTechTalk]

Waiting for your Honor Magic V2 review...

[@Techtablets]

Sadly this time I didn't get sent one, most mobile brands are delaying my review units or cutting me off completely as they fear I might say something against the phone and not 100% positive 😂🤣

[@HansTechTalk]

@@Techtablets oh no, btw, you’re the pioneer of E Bike reviews… I wish we could collaborate someday

[@Techtablets]

Pioneer haha no way. Plenty of others covered them before I did and those 100% dedicated ebike only channels. I was planning to make a separate channel only ebikes. Maybe one day. But brands all want them in this channel.

[@HansTechTalk]

@@Techtablets maybe there are other dedicated channels but you've made it easy to understand... I wish I could learn from you, any chance that we could get in touch

[@Techtablets]

Dm me on twitter if you want.

[@evgenikolev2322]

Still cant decide fiido m1 pro or pvy z20 plus

[@Fast.pubg1]

This looks good so the best 20 inch foldable right now?

[@Techtablets]

One of the best ones yes.

[@neuronflow]

do you know alternatives to this bike? Would it be easy to upgrade the brakes to Shimanos?

[@pvyebike]

PVY Z20 PLUS is equipped with hydraulic brakes. If you need to replace them, please replace the brake base together and go to a professional repair shop for replacement.

[@d.j_cam]

I have a EP-2 Pro, this looks identical other than the hydro brakes

[@Techtablets]

Yes same ODM it seems just with a different brand and parts.

[@elysium_xvx6569]

@@Techtablets imo this one is better because of the rear suspension and the hydro brakes

[@onemat2000]

How do I know a safe bike from a dangerous bike? The recent apartment building that burned down and killed four people. The fire started from an e-bike being charged. I really want to buy one but these battery issues are a huge concern.

[@Techtablets]

Hi, I worry about this all the time with the countless ebikes I have and my family. But here are some tips. Never leave them charging nonstop like plug it in and leave it for days. I always put a timer on for 8 hours and unplug it. If the bike is not going to be used for a long period I never leave them fully charged. The most important part try to confirm if it has LG or Samsung brand cells in the packs some brands never disclose this info as they use generic Chinese no brand cells. The last point is charge it outside not inside your home if possible I charge all my ebikes outside.

[@ufologix2853]

il faut juste faire attention , ne jamais charger une batterie encore chaude , et être toujours présent quand on charge une batterie

[@mikequinlan9031]

how is it as a push pedal bike, lets say battery totally flat could you easily cycle home if you had say 3-5 miles to go? please

[@sixpac50]

It's ok as a push bike, it's still very heavy but yes if the battery goes flat you could ride a few miles in a low gear without too much trouble

[@Dan50193]

So this is really a 1000w motor but locked to 250W out of the box? How can it be unlocked do you need to pay for it with a one-off fee for more power?

[@Techtablets]

Yes you can unlock it to 1000W.

[@Dan50193]

From Vacuums, tablets, laptops, projectors, and mini pcs I don't know how you produce all these videos in a week? This e-bike seems like the Engwe Ep2 maybe the same factory? Most bikes some from 3-4 ODMs just rebranded. Good, it has no application support for sending data to Chinese servers.

[@Techtablets]

Well let's just say my week is very busy and weekends!

[@mohammedsahil7127]

Hi..I really want to buy this ..but what is stopping me to buy this is ..does it provide good customer service if I have a problm with bike in future?

[@Techtablets]

I've not had any issues to have to test or use their support so I' not sure sorry. Maybe someone here can speak about that I hope? Anyone?

[@pvyebike]

We provide one-year warranty service. If you have any quality problems, please contact the after-sales support email, please don't worry.

[@dinel9596]

I know they are different but what's your opinion, engwe l20 or this one?

[@Techtablets]

This, it's the better of the two.

[@dinel9596]

thanks for the answer, you think the plus 1000 model they have (with bigger battery and hydrolic breaks) is worth the extra 250 euros ?@@Techtablets

[@ufologix2853]

oui biensur

[@emilcsiszar5447]

i just order one does it take long for it to come?

[@Techtablets]

Around 2 weeks for mine. Shipping from Poland I think it was.

[@emilcsiszar5447]

okay thanks@@Techtablets

[@stebinstephen3635]

Does it has any sticker or lable on the bike showing maximum constant power 250W and maximum assist 25KM/h 15.5 mph just like engwe has on engine x and ado has on a20f?

[@Techtablets]

Hi I don't have it now but I saw no sticker. However I think the motor was marked as 250w.

[@applecorp]

At 6:13 I noticed the bike pulled away instantly and quite fast but I don't get this on my Z20 1000, it creeps forward very slowly for a couple of seconds but then kicks in with more power. I've looked at all the settings and nothing seems to fix this. Torque is set to max at level 5, top speed is set to max etc. Any ideas?

[@Techtablets]

Could be they changed the settings and the sensor used. I'm really not sure sorry and this bike was returned to them.

[@applecorp]

@@Techtablets Ok thanks for the reply, guess I'll contact PVY.

[@pvyebike]

Please contact the after-sales support email and the staff will provide you with a solution.

[@sixpac50]

Mine also takes a few seconds to kick in. Annoying sometimes

[@applecorp]

​@@sixpac50​ I emailed PVY, all they did was send me the list of settings that you get in the manual that comes with the bike. It's a decent bike (so far) but the delay is pretty annoying.

[@hippopothomas1980]

This is one of those nicely designed ebike, But if the latch part is easily rusted, I'm worry about the whole bike material quality, I would change the seat although it the original might be comfortable, but it looks not suitable for paddling, and the break need to change too.

[@Techtablets]

Yes the light surface rust from a wash was a worry but no other parts showed this. I would remove it and paint thr part if I was serious about keeping this for years and years

[@thechillpill3233]

Are the tyres tubeless ?

[@pvyebike]

It comes with an inner tube.

[@albuk666]

Hi TechTablets, you said 22 kg. ? Thanks.

[@Techtablets]

That is correct for the bikes weight.

[@albuk666]

Thanks "TechTablets", but on the PVY site they wrote 25,15 Kg (not inclued battery) and 29 Kg (inclued battery) ???

PVY Z20 PLUS is better, I have been using it for 6 months and it climbs hills easily. 🤝

Can you get the bike in the uk

YES, UK is in stock🤝

Needs a street road tire option not this off-road tread.

Would be good like the INNOV street fat tires.

I have owned an Engwe Engine Pro for over a year and this bike seems to be just another run of the mill copy of the Engwe.

In fact they have some differences, you can find the answer through customer service

[@bloodybarron]

WHAT!? £200 more for the 1000W model, unreal just buy the 250W model and unlock it for free! These companies think they can scam £200 more for what you already get.

[@Daraghfly]

You get bigger battery and hydrophilic brakes.

Range?

40-50km realistic range. Mentioned at the end of the video.
