The E-Bike can be purchased from Banggood: bit.ly/3fRJaP8
Hi...and thanks for the review ..was really helpful ..I wanted to ask you if it s possible to mount a panniers rack behind the the saddle
Thanks
Don't buy this bike from Banggood they claim to have it in stock but they don't. They use youtubers to claim they are a trust worthy e-commerce but they aren't. CZcamsrs should not want to be affiliated with Banggood but they do anyway.
@@spoetnik21 wondering what they would charge for import duty too
I really like your reactions especially going downhill! Looks like I will be enjoying this when UK comes back on stock😊👍
Jake, another Fiido great review. Fiido seems to have hit a sweet spot with its smaller bikes. They seem well built and great to place in trunk/boot. I’m in the U. S. And hope to see them on sale either on Amazon or Wal Mart. Keep up the good work.
Фидо д4 с прекрасная , самая легкая модель. Не требует прав, дальность до 80- ти километров реально . Проехал за 4 поездки 100 км. Просто восторг, жаль что раньше не имел. Вес 18,5 кг. Скорость до 27/ км /ч.
Now this is a good review 👌 I was watching one before you and my thoughts were thinking not good but you have changed that one would say.
Good review JB
Mr Carmelo say YESS !!
Wow... I recognise every place in the vid
It does seem amazing for the price .... so had to order one. Some great stunt riding there lol
It's a great bike and I'm enjoying my time with it. Downside......squeaky brakes! It also needed a full service out of the box put that's pretty normal for any bike. Loads of people ask me about the bike, it's a bit of a head turner. Good review, Jake.
Thank you for your comment and feedback buddy!
@@JakeBilling you're welcome, thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. It will definitely a big influence for me.
I Love It Comes With 7 Speed Gears.
Thanks Jake, This is really interesting feedback on Fiido bike. Just want to ask one question: How to actual odometer reading ? it always resets after switch off. how to see odometer mileage so far used ?
Thanks
The best looking ebike in my opinion.
Shame I’ve ordered the D2s already. Might order the D4s as well and then keep the best of the two and sell the other.
Thank you for the review but what is the difference between this one and the FIDO D11 AND FIDO X really excellent
Never say "This ride is sick" ever again haha. I bought one off the back of this video. Cheers
Trying to decide whether to go for this one or the Fiido M1 for cruising and exploring 🤔. Awesome review btw 👍
Which did you go for and how do you find it?
@@Slipz2K8 Not decided which one yet. I'm going to the Cycle show in North London and will check out a few more E Bikes there.
Is it uk legal I thought that that non pedal mode was only allowed to go about 6 km/h If the rider is rolling - but not pedalling - faster than 6km/h, the throttle cuts off. If the cyclist pedals at the same time then the throttle can still assist up to the general limit of 15.5mph.

Todas las bicis eléctricas al llevar motor trasero funcionan mal. Siempre hay que comprobar que la rueda delantera y trasera en vacío rueda suave y dura bastante el rodamiento. Si ves que se para a las dos vuelatas hay que desmontar la rueda y aflojar el eje siempre que no tenga holgura y también comprobar que las pastillas no rozan en vacío y sin apretar la maneta. Si rozan es que no está bien puesto el freno hidraúlico y hay que desaflojar los dos tornillos que tiene en la parte superior frenar fuerte y entonces apretarlos sin soltar la maneta asi nos aseguramos que están perfectamente acoplados.
También se el truco de hacerla legal y que no lleve acelerador físico en el puño para que no nos denuncien. El truco es quitarlo del manillar y poner otro (el más pequeño que exista) dentro de la controladora o fuera pero en algún hueco (que lo hay) y rellenerlo de silicona caliente para que no se mueva ni le entre agua. El truco está en que llevas acelerador y el circuito envía señal a la controladora pero en posición cero sin accionarlo. Asi ya no tenemos acelerador físico y no puedes acelerar prácticamente al no llevarlo. Tu bici es legal al 100 por 100. Pues bien los SUPER INGENIEROS de Fiido no saben cómo anularlo y quitarlo del manillar dicen que si lo desenchufas a error y la bici no arranca. Pues bien en Aliexpress hay aceleradores miniatura que son pequeñisimos y son válidos para mi "invento" jajaja. Con lo fácil que hubiera sido programar la controladora para que la función acelerador se anule. Aviso que las multas son enormes y estás haciendo una acción contra la Seguridad Vial en España si te cogen y ven que llevas acelerador. Ya hay muchas bicis eléctricas que venden en España que no lo llevan al darse cuenta del fallo. Pero nosotros con nuestra magnífica Fiido nos arriesgamos a la sanción gorda. Lo de deslimitar la bici lo veo una tontería ya que te puedes dar un golpe o atopellar a alguien y te buscas la ruina. Además con mi invento no se puede deslimitar.
I’ve bought this bike recently. I only tried it indoors. My question is when I start pedaling on level 1, after a while el. engine launches and accelerates the bike. However when I stop pedaling the engine keeps accelerating (without using a throttle). In order to quit engine support I have to press the break. Is that normal that after stopping paddling the engine keeps on going?
How about riding in the rain with this thing? I'm Dutch and go everywhere on my bike throught any kind of weather so it needs to be safe to ride in the rain. (Also I notice there are no fenders on this bike??)
thanks
Nice quick review. One question, can you remove the battery to charge it?
No you can't.
Hey Jake. Thanks for the review. Can the battery be removed to charge or replace?
it is not quickly removable for charging but, it CAN be replaced by removing a couple of screws.
Hey Jake Do you still own this bike? would love to buy it off you. seems hard atm to buy one in the uk. let me know mate
Did it come with a UK plug or converter ? Also any suspension? Isnit waterproof ?Worry with this is if parts were needed where would you go

When cycling does it make an annoying whiny noise or that a fault?
Hi ordered one of these last week, although banggood are listing as I stock they are not, and will not be shipped out until the 20th august, when! The bike comes I’ll do a proper full and honest in depth review on the bike with its pros and cons, I did not get the bike for FREE like most other reviews you see on it so I’ll be honest..👍
how did it go?
raf dan it arrived a few days ago, I will upload a video Monday. But then a few follow up videos showing pros and cons etc 👍
Hi there, could you please be so kind and measure the diameter and the lenght of the seatpost?
What’s the difference with the D2S?
Why don’t fiido show the fiido d4s on their website?
Can you Scratch Off the fiido signs from the Bike?
I saw this in a bike shop here in the Philippines. I am highly considering to buy one.
which is better kaya. d4s or m1? 😄
@@jhoanamarie2242 hi! Sa weight kasi magkaiba sila. Mas mabigat ang M1 kasi around 25kg sya. D4S is around 17 or 18kg. Ngayon depende sa purpose mo kung ano mas pipiliin mo sa dalawa. M1 kasi pwede sa offroad and trails kasi makapal ang mga gulong nya at full suspension pa, both front and rear. Kaya ito din dahilan kaya mabigat. Ang folding bike kasi, normally ay for intermodal use.. ibig sabihin, magbike ka, tapos commute, tapos bike ulit.. yung D4S, medyo magaan. At kung bihira ka nmn offroad at madalas aspalto o semento dadaanan mo, ito ang best for u. Pero mas maganda, makita mo both at ma try mo.
@@bongskisalva5365 ohh thank you sa insights! planning kasi ako bumili na now or bukas kaya todo nood dito yt. and mas na inlove ako kay m1. pero dahil sa sinabi mo titignan ko ulit si d4s since mukang pang d4s nga ako. 😅 and cheaper pa sya so ayos. at lalo petite ako.. so bagay sakin. btw, andito ako sa baguio, steep roads everywhere. 😅 halos walang flat. keyring keri naman diba? 😄
@@jhoanamarie2242 you’re welcome.. im glad to help kahit sa maliit na paraan like this. Yes, kering keri na yang mga steepy roads ng Baguio. Same lng nmn kasi sila ng power ng d4s at m1. Plus mas magaan nga si d4s, mas lalong ok. Sige, enjoy na lng po. Btw, may review sa M1 pala na medyo maingay yung brakes. Not sure kung bakit ganun ang feedback nung ibang nakabili. Fyi lng.
Which one do you think is better? D2s or d4s?
Pls more rc vids
Are you still doing RC ??
Do they ship to the us?
You cut out the sequence when you were going to cycle up the hill, I assume it did not go so well, this is the problem with sponsored advertising from influences, you do not show the shortcomings only the positive.
It's very easy to remove the speed limit on this bike, it's only a soft lock (not Hardware locked). Once you do it goes about 33-35km/h depending on weight of rider, and the power is a little better. It carries me up steeper hills than the one he showed, but I weigh only 79kg and the hills I climb are all roads so I guess it's easier than uneven rough mud and grass etc. It's a great bike, but if you buy one replace the seat with something more comfortable. I got a big seat with huge springs for it. A major negative about this bike is the lack of suspension. The previous model had a shock absorber, but this one doesn't. But this one is still way better than the other models for several reasons. 1.It has gears 2. It has a 10.4ah battery and the old ones have 7.6ah batteries. 3. Bigger wheels, I used the old 14 and 16 inch ones for 12 months they were ok but not against curbs, you Vs curb, the curb wins. With this model the 20 inch is just better, plus for average hight or taller people the 20 inch wheels allow for a better ride with more clearance from the ground. 4. The LCD display is way better on this model than any of the older ones. The old ones aren't even LCD even though they are advertised as being so. 5. Despite the added gears, and bigger wheels this bike is only about 1kg heavier than the old ones which has a negligible effect on speed and acceleration. 5. This bikes throttle is still built into the grip. With the newer models (d11 and M1) which cost about 1k each, they have a a terribly cheap thumb button and it gets impeded by the gear switch which is a terrible design. I've spent a while looking at all of them out there and right now, the Fiido d4s is still the best value for money with the best design. If it had shocks it would be incredible.
Cons in a nutshell:
No suspension or shocks
No tail light (but has a nice front light)
No built in usb charge port for phones etc (they had this on a limited amount of upgraded d1's)
The built in horn sounds horrendous, but this can be changed with a bit of DIY.
The seat is actually high quality. It's ok. But for next to nothing I bought a bigger one with tons of padding and huge springs to compensate for the lack of suspension. (The ones it comes with have springs but they don't work as well as on the bigger seat I bought)
But you won't find another one with a 10.4ah, gears, 20" wheels for this price. (Buy it from gearbest and if you have a borderless account like Monzo or Wise, set the price to us dollars and pay in us, it will work out way cheaper than this guys links, roughly 480-500 GBP.)
* To remove the speed limit on these bikes, switch it off, then hold down both brakes and twist the throttle (not as hard as it sounds) then hold the power on button down until you see "E08" appear on the LCD, keep holding it for 5 more seconds after you see that then you can let go of everything. The bike is now unlimited. Repeat the actions to limit it again.
Hope this helps you decide if you want one. Im not associated with any of these companies but I do love the bike.
thank you, but most of what you mention I know.
I'm more interested in the Ado a20, but it also has its disadvantages, such as that you only get a pedal assist up to 15 km.
I have read that Fiido rusts, I thought most of it was built in aluminum?
but what really makes me hesitant to buy a china bike is the lack of support if something breaks, especially about problems with electronics
@@dejedejsson After having the bike for a year, the chain rusts, and a few of the pins rusted (i.e the pins in the clamps to fold the bike, but this did not affect the functionality of the bike) the chain rusting hasn't bothered me, all my bikes have rusted at the chain before. But the rusted pins don't look nice, so it will require some anti rust with a ear cleaner or something to protect them (or paint them/spray them before you use the bike)
Nothing else on the bike has rusted, the brake discs still look perfect and the body/frame is fine.
The parts for Fiido are generally available. But I wouldn't even worry about that I was you, you can always buy parts even if they are theird party. With the d4s, the wheels are 20inch, which is very typical for kids bikes. So you can get new tires really easily. I didn't even buy the official mud guards for this bike because they are a rip off. I bought random 20inch guards on Amazon that look better quality. I also took the bike to a bike shop to have the brakes adjusted and the bike serviced, although they had never seen this bike before it was no problem for them to work on it. In my opinion you will have a harder time getting parts for anything that's not fiido, as the Fiido company has made a name for itself, has a catalogue of bike models and still manufacturers parts.
I havnt done a battery change yet as it still performans like it did on day one, but I am not worried about when that day comes because the batteries all use 18650's which are manufactured like crazy.
The ado a20 also looks like a good option, I had considered it too. But the motor is 350w, which can be a positive or a con depending on how you see it. It's more powerful, yet the battery is the same. Same power, same capacity, but a more demanding motor? Makes me question how long it lasts in comparison. It also weighs quite a considerable amount more at 24kg which will affect total distance you can achieve and battery discharge rates.
For those reasons I went with the fiido d4s. But if you see the 350w as a positive and prefer the style of the a20, I wouldn't say it's a bad option to go for at all. The ado also has a quick release removable battery and can be charged whilsts out of the bike which is awesome. It has front suspension which might explain the weight difference. But here's a real negative about that suspension, it drops too low and hits the front wheel. I've seen it on a few different review videos. If the suspension worked properly on that bike I'd probably have one of them instead of the d4s. The forks touching the wheel when you hit a bump is not good.
D2 or D4s which do you prefer? I feel that the simplicity of the D2 wins, no worrying about maintenance of the Shimano gears but maybe the D4s is better on hills?
@Mind your own Business Coldn't make much sense of that
Is the battery pack detachable?
Is this much better than the D2S?
What the max load weight for this bike.
Kugoo m4 review?
Is it water resistant? I mean, is there any possibility to be damaged with the rain or from the wet road?
If you throw it in the sea it will break but rain is fine same with puddles
Ooh I can't save up quick enough! 😀wonder if we would get pulled on it? With it having a throttle only mode?
I'm guessing yes, for me I would get pulled 100%. Not saying cops are racist but I get pulled regularly and that's when I do nothing wrong (driving car) and they look so disappointed. One time I had to go to police station with documents because my car was coming up "not insured" when it definitely was...
Also I've been arrested for kidnapping when I was at work when it happened and the kidnapped person escaped and told them it wasn't me 🤣
Yes, I will need to make a quick way to disable the throttle in case..
@@hasan_z Oh blimey mate, bet you're used to it by now. Not that, that makes it right! Tempting to order this one. But no idea of guarantee, and seems to be a lack of spare parts available. Decisions, decisions! Lol
i live in Ireland but i think most EU countrys u can have e-bike with no license if the bike is not going over 25 km/h. I'm looking in to this one or the Z20,but the 4ds have a shop near me,so just in case something wrong i dont have to bother with shipping,just drop it to them
Someone knows how to check the odometer on this new fiido display (version 2021) ?
My D4S has a different display. It has no Odometer. How can I get the display to show it?
You can't
Can the battery be upgraded? Disappointed that it's not removeable.
its removable but its not recommended to remove it
front wheel looks crooked and bend up? @6:15
*I guess the speed can be unlocked like the m1. Has the same LCD display*
Yes it's unlockable 36km/h 😊
Hi, I forgot the bike in charge 100%, Is it harmful ?
Sadly, Not available on your link 😮
Is the bike waterproof ?
How far do you think this bike can reach in full electric mode
30 Km
Is it waterproof?
Is this bike waterproof? Cheers
Anybody know what the maximum steering rod height is in cm? Compared to the D11 (110cm) I can't find it anywhere xD
how much do you weigh ? top speed and battery longevity ? hard to believe 40 miles on 1 charge.
So if you can't take the battery out how do you replace it when you need to get another battery or use another one?
You can, with a screwdriver
Thanks , I bought a mi rider instead
How much is the bike mate ?
No offense dude just asking what is your weight in KG? I'm 90kg and planning to buy this bike. ty
Max Weight : 120 kg. Si you should be good
Anyone happen to know the seatpost diameter ?
Is it waterproof?🤔
Whats your weight?
Does anyone know what spokes to buy to fix the D4S? Thank you
Mine are breaking as well, did you find any that fit?
@@coaldust01 I asked Fiido to send me replacement but I still don’t know the dimensions for it. You can also go to your local bike shop and they will replace the broken ones and also re-true the wheel for about 25£
Does this bike use a cadence or torque sensor for pedal assist?
Fifty to seventy kilometers... In your dreams. Basically that is in assist level one on a flat road if you peak the whole time. They should actually base these numbers on real usage?
30 Km ?????
It would be better if there would be 3 assisted mode without throttle.
How is the riding comfort comparing to D2S that has rear shock absorber?
I'm also curious on how's the ride? I wonder if the ride is bumpy since it's without suspension
Nice question. Tks
Thinking the same but already have the D2S on order
@@tundeuk I do have the D2S already. But I think D4S is a lot faster due to the 20 inch wheels. I am ready to ditch this D2S if D4S proves its worth. Just not so sure because it lacks suspension and it has thinner wheels. Seems bumpy.
Can we get replacement batteries?
Yes ive seen them on Fiidos website around £130 if remember rightly.
Lots saying this is a good review but everything has pros and cons not just pros. Maybe a bit biased as it was a freeby.
Slt, I bought this bike and the electric assistance never worked. Fido does not refund....
Nice video. Thanks. You said the positives, now I'm waiting for what you didn't say. That is, the weaker sides. Well, unless it's a sponsored video, i.e. a subjective one, so not authoritative.
Is this better than the d2s?its cheaper tho
D2 is 480 euros in other sites. This one is worth the extra money tho..
This one is only 70-80 euros more, but you get much for that money. LCD display, bigger battery, top speed can be 35 km/h, bigger wheels.
and is the battery removable ?
No it isn’t removable
Does it have a key?
no
hi amount is the lowest seat height?
Around 27 inches (68.58 cm)
This is a sweet bike for the price, but I guess as it has a throttle, it’s classed like a motorcycle, so has to be registered and insured as such. But as it doesn’t go over 15 mph, it’s a bit of a grey area.
Didn't this used to be an rc channel?
Yep Im hoping he will do more
🙂👍❤️💯🔥😍🤛🤩
The back wheel falls to pieces after thee months. Banggood offer
impossible after sales service. You cannot get through. It will cost me
155 euro minimum for new back wheel.
One bad thing about the Fidos is that you cannot get any spare parts. The throttle on my old bike broke and i cannot buy a new one :-(
Perhaps you could try Ali Express? I have the Fiido d2s and recently contacted a Fiido website asking about spare parts (light/horn and larger battery) and they were of no help so I found a replacement Wuxing light on Aliexpress, which appears the same as the one on the bike. They have some throttles on there made by Wuxing, which look very similar to the ones on the bikes. The thumb throttle looks like the one on Fiido M1 and the half twist throttle looks like the one on the d series. No idea if they are compatible with controller but I'm sure something on there will be.
It's a shame the customer support is so poor at present as the bikes themselves are amazing for the price.
Hope you get your throttle sorted soon 🙂
@@jeansimple5530 Passiongadgets and Fiido.se are the same sites. Both require GrayPay, Paynow, FavePay as payment. So ist very complicated.
@@suzyr8345 Its looks similar, but the conections are different. :-(
@@metanulski really sorry to hear this. I had no luck with passion gadgets either, asked about battery and they didn't get back to me so I presume they don't post batteries to uk. It looks like most of their parts are for the q1 and may not be compatible with our bikes either.
Can you contact the seller you bought from originally for help? Is it still under the 1 year warranty? Or maybe join fiido Facebook group and see if anyone has any suggestions? Perhaps the connections could be modified to fit the bike if you bought a throttle that had different connections? If anyone is reading this and knows of a solution can they let metanulski know? Please don't give up ok, you will get your throttle sorted!
Please Fiido sort this out. We need to be able to purchase spare parts and guided in the right direction. I love the look of the M1 and am considering buying it but dont want to end up with a bike I can't use when something goes wrong, as I can't get spare parts. The bikes themselves are very well made but please focus more on your customer support.
@@metanulski hope you got your throttle sorted.
Just wanted to let you know there are now some accessories on the fiido website. I noticed that they are selling a throttle for most of the fiido models, so it might be worth having a look, if you havent managed to get it sorted🙂. The website address is:
www.fiidoebike.com/collections/parts-accessories
Anyone received dispatch email?
I bought it 2 days ago!
Hi, did you manage to hear on your purchase yet?
@@namnamnam No not yet, not dispatch. What about you? I will contact customer support.
Hi, yes pre ordered shipped out today
@@ovidiuh8646 i haven't ordered yet, just trying to get a sense how long it takes. Hope yours got sorted out!
I ordered this bike July 2nd & my order is still processing
Dont buy this from Banggood. They have no more this bikes. I ordered it on 3rd July, still nothing happened after 17 days. Thay said, it restock now.... But i have to wait end of July? They sell in Banggood app they have in stock this bikes. Its total lying.
Yes. They are lying. I am also waiting for it to be dispatched since 4 weeks. But were else to buy it??
It's came... Finally!! I ordered it 53 days ago haha^^;;
Please be advised that the Fiido D4S does not conform to EU and Spanish Pedelec law.
Why?Bikes like this and others that have twist accelerator that may maintain speed without pedal assist are classified as mopeds-moto, which require driving licence and insurance. Police are fining heavily users of non compliant Pedelec ebikes. Be warned I was fined.
Sure as shit that's my home town lol
Nice.. Shame but I'd get that stolen where I live.
1/400 chance for me to win giveaway 🤞
Ebikes with twist throttle that are not pedelec bikes do not conform to UK pedelec law and must be registered as moped in UK. D4S must not be used on bikeways or public pedestrian pathways. To be only used on roads with moped driving licence and approved motorbike crash helmet.
First
Fiido's pedal assist is the worst I've ever seen! It's not pedal assist actually, it just detects that you are pedaling (after quite some time actually because it's very slow) and it just gives full power!! no matter what assist gear/mode you 're on.. assist gears/modes only define different cut-off speeds for the motor so it stops when you reach that speed.. just awful!
Which one do you think is better? D2s or d4s?
