- ELOPS 520 LOW FRAME CITY BIKE REVIEW & FIRST LOOK | COFFEEWITHSHARU
I'm back after a long hiatus! I started the channel this year with loads of enthusiasm and ideas, and then COVID struck out of nowhere! Half my ideas revolved around travel and here I am, in lockdown for over five months - that's an interesting twist of events :D
So I improvised. I plan to bring you content from this #newnormal life rather than waiting for the day I get the guts to board a plane (which is going to be a longgg time away).
This quarantine I was such a couch potato and finally decided I need to get the bike as a substitue for working out! And it's been the best decision ever!!
After a huge research process, I ended up getting the ELOPS 520 LOW FRAME CITY BIKE in Denim Blue. I named her Alya, which means Heaven/Sky. Symbolic representation to how she looks and makes me feel 😌 LOL.
Did you know the biking population around the world went up drastically after COVID? 😂 There are many reasons for this:
1. you avoid public transport in the middle of pandemic
2. it gives you a reason to enjoy fresh air after being cooped up for so long
3. its a good gym substitute!
So if you're planning on getting one, do give this bike a look ❤️
I will be back on track starting now, I promise! If you have any video requests, please comment below. I'll be happy to oblige :)
Much love,

I got my new one only a week ago I am 70 and really enjoy cycling after an absence of 6 yrs this bike is so easy to ride and very comfortable
how cute! I'm getting mine delivered tomorrow (got it in the snow white colour), this video made me suppppper excited. I can't wait to ride it
I’m so glad!! Hope you’re enjoying your bike too 🤍🤍
I ordered an elops bike in green and can't wait for it to arrive. Great video!
Maryam H yayyy! Best decision to go with this one! And i loved the green so much too! Enjoy! Thank you so much 💚
I got the same one yesterday! It’s so comfortable and it keeps fit! Much love :D
Yayyyy!!! I know. Such a fun and healthy option 😍😍 and for sure a head turner too 😄
Hi Berna, what size did you get? ! am 5ft 2 and not sure if this bike will be too big for me
Thanks for making this video it helps
Just ordered mine!! This video made me even more excited
Aww congratulations!! Thank you very much 💞 Been riding it non stop and love it! You will love it too!
I've got the black version, it's advertised as a low city bike suitable for people 155cm and upwards, and I'm 5ft, so it is on the smaller side, but still really big for me!! 😁
@@hanat4766 hi, I am learning to ride, i am 5ft 2 and getting the bike in size s/m and abit worried it will be too big, what size did you get?
@@Yasmin-wq5jh Hi, there's only one size and it is huge. Because you're two inches taller than me, it might be fine. But I've compared my bike tires to other bikes and they are really big.
Also, if you buy it from Decathlon, you can't return it after riding it, and I had to test it so I couldn't return it either.
It is very comfy though.
@@hanat4766 thank you for replying!! Really appreciate it, i am a little worried now because I am afraid my feet may not touch the ground, do yours touch the ground enough? I am still learning to cycle so am nervous. I have opted for the unisex frame of the elops 100 which comes in one size and it seems to have the same measurements as the usual s/m bikes from decathlon
Thank you! Very helpful! 😊
Thank you so much! ☺️
Hi one question, how does the speed work?
I don't understand the six speeds
hi what size is this bike? ! am 5ft 2 and not sure if this bike will be too big for me
Good review. Plenty of hard data facts. Well done.
Thank you so much, very kind ! :)
I'm literally confused about what bike should I buy elops 520 or a mountain bike?
I got the same cycle but how do i turn in the lights tho
Is it not available anymore in India?
Hi… Good review
What’s your height?? so I can get a sense of the size of the bike when I see you on it in the video. Please! Thank you.
Hello !! can you tell me please is it unisex or not ?!
I picked up a pre-owned model at Decathlon Spain, Friday night. I named her Robin (because of their egg color). We're still getting to know each other. ☺
Aww that’s lovely!! And suchhh a beautiful name too✨ hope you and Robin have the best of adventures ☺️🤍

Hi, great video, thanks for the information. Two questions: is the bike very heavy? It says 20 kg on the website which i think is quite heavy if you want to go up a little hill or carry the bike down the basement. Also: would it be possible to attach another basket in the front?
Hi! The bike isn’t heavy at all. You can see me on the video, I can’t handle heavy weights 😄 but this is super light to manage. No issues there even if u have to carry it down.
Attaching another basket in the front other than the basket which is already there? I’m not sure how it will work ? #curious But the guys at decathlon might help? :-?
Excellent Review....
Happy Riding.....
Thank you :) :)
Nice review. Nice bike.☺
❤️❤️❤️
Hi, thanks for the video. Is the seat adujstable? Worried about it being too high. The only bike left is size L, and i' 167cm.
Thank you!! 😇🤍 Yes, the seat height is adjustable. I’m thinking size L should be fine for 167cm.. but depends on if your leg reaches easily or not. Try it once at the store before you purchase, to better be safe! Let me know :)) Happy riding! 🥳
Hi, I recently purchased the same model , bt how do u know about the size. Did u find any difficulty while riding uphill in belgium
Yes. But I doubt if that’s to do with the bike.. The right gear setting helps, but you have to figure out what’s the best gear setting for you- that’s why I didn’t mention that.
❤️
Does the bike arrived assembled or do you have to assemble everything by yourself?
I collected it directly from the store. But if you go for home delivery, it will come assembled. Ready to ride!
Nice Video Riz
Thank you Soumyaa 🤍🤍
Hello! Nice review. I'm thinking about ordering the size S/M since I’m 1.51cm do you think it’ll work well for me?
I’m curious about this too
@@mrslayfieldlayfield6371 I ended up purchasing a size S/M which was too big for me and I had to return it and buy a different model. Hope this helps!
Are you happy with the brakes?? Do they squeak? I’m thinking about getting this bike as well😊😊
Hey Nisa !! No they don’t squeak. It’s a very comfortable and quiet bike on all aspects and the brakes are efficient ✨👏🏼 goood luck on your bike 😃
@@shameemrizwana8812 Ahh thank you so much!!🥰
Are you still happy with it after all these months? Thinking about getting one☺️
Definitely! No regrets at all! So excited for you 😃😇
Really nice video!! I would like to buy this bike for my sister as a gift for her birthday. I still hesitate on sizes S or L (she is 1. 71m tall), which one do you recommend for her?
Thank you so much! ☺️ such a thoughtful gift idea 💝 I would suggest size L .. more comfortable on the legs for anyone over 170cm ! :) Wishing your sister a very happy birthday 🎈 🤍
@@shameemrizwana8812 Thank you for your advice! I just ordered it, she will be happy :)
may i know what is the size of your Velo? Thank you!
Size L :)
I'm 1.70m do you think the L/XL would be too big? X
If you’re 170, I recommend you already go for L/XL. It’d be perfect! :’) xx
@@shameemrizwana8812 perfect thanks so much x
I just got mine today, but the breaks are squeaking 😩 but still love it, mine is white
Aww!! That should be fixable! Take it to decathlon?
@@sharu4ever i got mine yesterday and i took mine there too! I have the same bike and asked them why it kept squeaking. Turns out it needs to break in a little bit (meaning you need to ride it a bit more) and the squeaking will go away instantly :)
@@bernakoci4549 yayy! So glad it worked out for you 🤍 and nice to know you’re enjoying your bike !! 🤗
More vlogs ❤️
Crimson Butterfly Studios sure thing!! 😇😇
I'm 1,60 what size do I need?
Hi Laura! You can go for size S (in some places it’s called M).
love your voice
thank you !! :)
Awesome .. where r u from?
India :)
and thank you!! ^^
@@shameemrizwana8812 you bought it from Decathlon? I'm planning to buy one. I rounded upto Elops 120. Any suggestion? Please it would help me decide
Huh. My sister. Bike.
❤️
💙💙☺️
