  • First-time folding bike owner. Amazing for the price!
The media could not be loaded. I have never owned a folding bike before, but I do have a normal eBike. I am reviewing this from the perspective of someone who loves their eBike, but is unsure on folding bikes -- especially cheap ones. Please see my video overview for more details. This bike ships in a large box, and must be assembled. All necessary tools are included (some Allen wrenches, wenches, and a screwdriver). The manual is well written with diagrams for every step. It read well - not the typical poorly translated “Engrish” manuals I have gotten used to. Assembly took me about 45 minutes, though I bet I spent 5-10 just clipping off zip ties and removing packing. The steps are all well explained, and none are more complex than “put this in that and tighten the other.” I did find it odd that the manual starts giving instructions on how to fold the bike down before it was fully assembled. There was also a front axel brace installed on my unit, which needed to be removed before the wheel could be attached - the manual did not mention that, and my lack of experience with building bikes had me confused for a moment. Once assembled, the tires need to be inflated to the values shown on them — mine were 40 PSI max. The battery also must be charged with the surprisingly small charger. The manual says charge time is 5 1/2 hours, but I did not time mine. I just kept an eye on the red light of the charger and unplugged it when it turned green. The handlebar and seat can be adjusted up and down with a quick release clamp. There are numbered markers on the post so once you find your settings, it is very easy to set them again if you have to shorten them for folding (or for someone else to ride it). I am 5’ 10” and there was enough adjustment room to set it up for me to ride comfortably. Folding the bike is done in two steps. There is a quick release on the frame when must be undone, and then pulled to one side to release a pin. Only then will the frame fold over. The handlebar has a similar quick release. With the frame and handlebar folder down, it is quite compact and fits easily in the back storage compartment of my car. The pedals also can be folded flat. When folded, it did not appear there was any way to lock things in place. Once you figure out where to grip it to pick it up, it is easy, but the first time I tried it, the bike was kinda unfolding. There are two sets of keys included — three for the ignition, and two for the battery. The battery slides in to a groove, and then the key can be used to lock it in place. To activate the battery, the key can turn from “off” (locked in place) to “on” (locked in place, and activated). A third position is “unlocked”, for removing the battery. There is a charging port on the side of the battery, and another connector where you plug a cable from the bike in to the battery. On the handlebar is a bell, and another keyhole. A second key is used here to go from “off”, to “on” to “on + lights.” There is a front headlight that is quite bright, and a tail light. When brakes are applied, the tale light flashes. Although the bike has pedals, they are not required to make it run on the motor. You tap the brake, and then just turn the grip and the bike takes off. And it really takes off. This is a single speed bike, and I wasn’t expecting the small 350 watt motor to be this responsive. You can ride full on electric without pedaling at all, unlike some expensive eBikes that only run in “pedal assist” mode. I quite like that. I am only in my first week of owning this bike, and I expect to update this review in the Spring with more observations. For now, the first rides have been surprisingly fun. I expected the small 16” tires to give a rough ride, but they do not. I tested a particularly bumpy sidewalk to test the front suspension and it worked well. I expected the smaller motor to have problems on a steep incline in the neighborhood. That hill is enough that my Gotrax scooter barely makes it up. This bike just slowed down to about 9 mph and kept on going. I was pleasantly surprised. On the handlebar is a simple display that just shows battery level - one to four bars. There is no speedometer or odometer. It would be nice to have both, though I did test speed using a GPS app and saw the bike easily doing the 15 mph speed the manufacture states. As to distance on a charge, I do have a way to verify that. I have been taking trips through the neighborhood, around the block, and am still on my original charge. I plan to take the bike to work and ride it to lunch and see how many days of light travel I can get on the battery. eBikes are heavy, but since you can quickly remove the battery, you can lighten it a bit for loading it in an out of a car. For storage at home, I leave it set up, but you can fold it down and push the seat down to make it more compact. The bike has front and rear disc brakes. They work well, though I need to adjust my front brakes. During assembly, I pushed them a bit more than I should have, trying to get the disc in the right place. Mine rub slightly, so I need to adjust that. Pedaling the bike is okay, but as one would expect from a single speed bike with small wheels, it’s not going to give you the ride experience you get with a full size bike. I could easily pedal around the block, but I don’t expect to ever have to pedal this bike unless my battery runs out on me. I consider this an electric bike with a pedal backup system ;-) It is winter here in Iowa, so all my test riding has been in sub-freezing temperatures. This is not great for battery life, so I expect it to be even better when temperatures warm up. No complaints here. I think I am sold on the concept of a folding bike. There’s something really nice about being able to undo two quick releases and fold it down, then just pick it up and set it in the back of the car. If I want to take my other bike anywhere, I have to hook up the bike rack. I can fold and load this bike quicker than I can get the bike rack attached. Very pleased so far. I will update this review if I encounter any issues. ... show more

  • Highly recommend!
Style: Nephele Step-thru Black
This e-bike is fantastic!! I live in a town with lots of hills, and I used to have a regular bike, but I never rode it because it was just too difficult. This e-bike gives me the perfect amount of support and plenty of power, making rides smooth and effortless. Now, I can actually commute by bike, which is amazing!! Right out of the box, it was super easy to set up, and the build quality feels solid. One of the best things about this bike is the removable battery. I live 3 miles from work, and the battery lasts long enough that I don’t need to charge it every single day, which is super convenient. I also love how easily it folds up, making it perfect for small apartments or tossing in the car trunk. Overall, this e-bike is an absolute steal for the price! It’s fun, practical, and well-designed for everyday use. If you’re looking for a reliable and affordable electric bike, this is definitely the one to get! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ... show more

  • Great a e bike, more features than expected
The media could not be loaded. I love the bike for being easy to assemble and it was basically fully charged out the box, it exceeds all expectations from the bright headlights to the comfortable seat also adjustable seat and handlebars, loud horn plus the option to remove the battery for charging is incredibly convenient, brakes are very sensitive and smooth plus it folds up. I've ridden it twice and haven't charged battery yet. Overall, this bike is exactly what I was looking for, nice design, great stability, and at 15.5 mph, more than enough power and the size good for a petite woman. Excellent performance, great value for money … high recommended. ... show more

  • Great little bike
This bike is easy to use. It’s on the smaller size for an adult. I’m 5 ft 3 in and 130 lbs. It’s very versatile but I will say definitely easier to ride on the road. In the gravel it can get a bit wobbly to ride. As far as power you can definitely tell there is assist when peddling, but wish it had a little more power when it comes to hills. Overall I would say it works as it should. Our screen for the battery meter was cracked when we took it out of the box but when I contacted the company they did send us a new one. They were very responsive and easy to deal with. ... show more
