ADO Air20Pro Electric Bike Folding, EBike for Adults, 20" Folding Electric Bicycle, Belt Drive, Bafang Motor, ECO and SPORT Mode, Adjustable Shock Absorption, LCD, APP, Range Up To 100KM

I was a long term serious cyclist until age 70. We then adopted 2 rescue dogs who needed copious amounts of walking. No time ( or energy ) for cycling, so I 'peeled off ' the cycling shorts and retired. Dog situation has changed and I have time ( and energy ) for cycling again. Still disgustingly fit for 78, ( all that dog walking) but no desire to return to a full size road bike. So I purchased this Ado Air20 Pro. A few days and 30 miles done and . . . I love it? It's great fun and a quality build with all the necessary ' bells & whistles ' to keep this gadget man happy. Reasonable inclines I find quite manageable under assistance levels 1, 2 or 3, dependant on your level of fitness and how hard you are prepared to ' push ' of course. However, I will not be attempting any 15% hills. I generally toggle the assistance level to 0 i.e off when on the flat which saves battery and gives me more ' work ' reassuring to know ' Mr Battery ' is ready to help when and if needed. 🤗 This probably explains my 30 miles ridden and approx 50% battery used ( based on battery level gauge ? ) You do need to take the manufacturers " up to 100 kms range ( 60 miles) range with caution. So very dependent on the rider, the terrain, the weather (wind) etc. I had a slight problem with the seat tube slipping ? ( I am a relative lightweight at 75 Kgs) Maybe due to me not wanting to overtighten the locking clasp ? Anyway, I purchased a tube of ' Carbon Gripper Paste ' this reduces the tightening torque needed and appears to have done the job. Early days yet and I will return and update this review when I have more use of the bike. If you have any questions ? fire away, I will do my best to answer. N:B No connection to any cycling manufacturers, no rewards given or expected, Just a private 'Joe' giving his honest opinion. P.S Update on 30/07/25 I have covered 100 miles on the bike now and I am still very happy with it. I may be 'teaching grandmother to suck eggs' but approach the claimed 100km (60 mile) range with no confidence. N:B there is a disclaimer in small print on the packing box and in short it states, ( mileage test done on a flat road, no wind, 25 degrees C and under 65kg load ) . . . so not very representative of many riders conditions eh ? After the initial 1st charge I have charged twice, 1st time I completed 40 miles and the 2nd time 45 miles. As previously stated I may be 78 but pleased to say I am very fit @ 75kg (for my age). I do not use assist levels 1/2 or 3 on most flat/flattish surfaces. It is very easy to 'tap' the + and - buttons to adjust battery assistance which I do need on any sort of gradient. I think many riders will average between 30 - 35 miles per full charge (depending on terrain) In my view this is still acceptable on what is sold as a " city bike " However I do wish ADO would be a bit more ' up front ' with the battery range. Happy cycling. Approaching 500 miles now on my super ADO Air20 Pro. Nothing untoward to report (which is a good thing) No problems apart from my 1st puncture which I got today, Doh ! I have repaired very many punctures on ' normal ' (non-e-bikes) but this looks more of a challenge. Looks like the rear wheel will need removing and I'm reluctant to do this as the carbon belt tension will likely be affected ? I have previously asked ADO ' [email protected] ' a couple of questions about the bike and to their credit they have given me quick and sensible answers. I have therefore just e-mailed them to ask their advice on this puncture repair. N:B I am more than happy to take it to a cycle repair shop. I will return and update again if I have anything useful to report. OK, this review is beginning to rival ' War and Peace ' for size ! Ref my 1st puncture (see above paragraph) I managed to fix it myself, hope the following helps others:- On ' youtube ' search on ' Air20 Replacement rear wheel ' this will take you to the ADO support page. Shows how simple it is to remove the rear wheel, you really need the wheel removed to take out the inner tube. Once the wheel is off maybe you don't need to take the tyre off the rim ? I did. If you have fixed punctures before that is really all you need. My concern about removing the belt was a non event ! Puncture repaired and back on the road. Now I know how easy it is I may change the supplied tyres for 2 Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres, recommended as the most puncture proof bike tyres. Happy cycling

After a lot of research I finally went with this bike. The main attractions for me were, it is a folding bike, carbon belt drive, automatic gears, integrated lights, a decent rack, a good display and a good range. Having received the ebike about 3 weeks ago I can attest to the fact that it's a great bike. Very smooth to ride with a good selection of assist settings and suits both my height 5,11" and my wife's 5'1". I love the torque sensor, which I was a bit worried about as my previous ebike had a cadence sensor, but I needn't have worried, it's great. Range is difficult to say as I have been trying out different settings but on the first charge I got 26 miles, which is slightly disappointing but still OK for me. It is quite heavy and folding it is awkward if you're not very strong, like me, but doable. All in all I still think it's the best folding ebike for the money (£1299 at time of purchase).

Ok I've just received it, supper fast delivery which was appreciated 👍 The bike was extremely well packed. This bike is well built, you can tell the components are quality, this bike is solid. It's definitely not light in weight and you'd need to be fit and strong to get it up a flight of stairs. Hills are no problem for this bike I'm 6:1 over 85kgs carries me up no issues. Bad roads aren't going to be a problem either, fat tyres and front suspension see to this. This is a quality bit of kit, I'm so far impressed.

Well made, easily assembled and automatic gears. Smooth, quiet and adjustable front suspension

Great bike very happy.

It arrives very well packed, in fact it's a bit of a struggle to de-box single handed. Bike is well made with reasonably clear instructions. Notwithstanding the quality I did a quick tightening check on all parts, 100% secure. The tyres were underinflated as delivered but that is to be expected. The bike rides well and the electrical assistance is exactly right and instantaneous. Saddle a little hard but that's a personal thing. Good for commuting and those around town journeys. App works well. Brakes very good.

This is marvellous bang for bucks. I was a bit nervous about it only having 2 gears and 3 power settings but I've been using it in Sheffield, reputedly the hilliest town in the UK and my 77 yr old knees managed all the hills. It is comfortable but please don't be seduced into thinking you can do Peak District trails on it or similar. Folding bikes necessarily have small wheels which makes balance more challenging and short handlebars, so controlling is also not 100%. That said the forks and saddle let you take on cobblestones and potholes without effort.

A good folding 'e'bike, good quality kit, rides well, real range is around 60 to 70 km on a full charge. I like mine, done around 170km in the first week.
