No bike mechanic or bike rack needed for this wheeled wonder
This is our first electric bike purchase and have been very impressed with everything about this bike from buying, the box and packaging, setup, and operation.I have very little bike repair or setup experience. Before purchasing this Vivi model we have used battery powered electric razer type scooter and a buzzbee mobility scooter that uses 12V agm type batteries but have not used or rode on an electric bike or segway before this purchase.Packaging:When this box arrives it is a porch hog! Very large cardbox box with plenty of protective polystyrene wrappings, blocks, and styrofoam to protect the bike. The tools and accessories are located within one small cardboard box while the other box is the large battery unit and AC electrical charger brick with cord. The bike has some many parts that are secured with zip tie and white tear resistant soft packaging to prevent shifting and scratching during transit.Assembly is not intimidating and I only needed a pair of scissors for opening the box and zip ties.I am writing that this bike is no tools required for assembly. You read that correctly NO Tools required since the company provided all the necessary tools to build this bike.Charge the battery! After pulling the bike out of the box, I took the battery from the bottom of the box and plugged into the wall to charge. The large black box that charges the battery will go from Red to Green after about 5 hours.1) Then I used the large and small L shaped hex wrenches to attach the handlebar into the bike and adjust the grips bar to be up higher. There are white etched arrows to show the minimum level for inserting the handle bar.2) The front tire was easy and I did not have to put on the disc brake as stated in the instructions, it only required one of the 3 wrenches to tighten each side of the wheel to the fork.3) I took off the LED light and bar since it was reversed for shipping and attached the front splash fender when placing the light and hex bolt back into the fork.4) Pedals were labeled L and R and used another included wrench to install5) The seat was the most tedious and mechanics or bike experts would chuckle but I placed the rear large fender on the seat post, then the reflector, and finally the seat. I had to tighten both sides of the seat bolts very tight to keep it from moving up and down.6) Final step was to attach the battery pack with the two upper velcro straps to the grip and shifting bars and the lower velcro to the vertical handlebar stem. Plugged in the battery cable to the bike cable and I was finished with the build!Operating and Riding:My son calls this his Tesla bike! I first took it to the office since it was a weekend to test ride and capture some video with my gopro using this wheeled wonder! Only three buttons on the power panel which is the size of a bike computer or cyclometer. the power button is located on the bottom in the middle using the global standard round circle with vertical line for Power ON and OFF. The Minus is on the left to reduce the speed and the Plus button is located on the right to increase. The bike has 3 levels - Low Med and High (fast!)I can activate the motor using pedal assistance mode by pedalling and then the back wheel motor kicks in and moves the tires. There is also a round throttle that is at the end of the right handlebar grip that I can twist like a motorcycle. This is full motor with no pedaling required.The power panel has 5 led battery level indicators and after 1 hour of riding in both Low and High modes it only used 1 bar. My break in riding included some steep wet grassy hills from the recent winter snow melting and 8 times of going up and down a two-three story deep driveway and sidewalk.Storing and Transporting:The bike is not lightweight and that is probably due to the heavy duty frame, large motor, and battery pack. But I can lift the bike to place in my trunk or the back of our minivan. The bike folds in half by unlatching the bar and using the latch bar to pull up and release the locking pin. The bike is folded tire on tire so I do not have to place on a bike rack.

Fair enough considering the cost
Assembly was fast and easy, just bolt on pedals, seat and handlebars with the included toolset. Rides well, though there is a shimmey when braking. I'm trying to diagnose t h with issue but cannot find the problem bc the rim and brake disc both appear straight and true, could just be some oil or grease on the brake disc. The suspension is too soft for my personal liking, but I ride hard and wrecklessly. Bike Folds easily, but handlebars do not fold to make it more compact for fitting in a car trunk. The battery life seems mediocre but is acceptable... I. To be fair, I only use the top setting and seldom pedal on my own for a daily transit to work and back. The pros on this bike are it's compatibility. Front and rear suspension, front and rear disc brakes, fully adjustable handlebars and seat to fit nearly any size rider. The cons are all relative to certain specifics an average passive rider is unlikely to encounter. All in all, this is a decent bicycle for a great price. It's like getting a steak for the price of a hotdogs. It is an excellent buy for a first delve into the electric bike world.

Has a kick!
I love my new bicycle! I ride this thing every day and I look cool doing it too -its a clean, minimalist body design that puts me on a bike from the future! I don't need to think twice when I'm coming up a hill. Playing with the power output levels is quick and simple. I'm on a low setting just cruising around and a quick press of a button puts me in high when I need it to (around here, often).This thing looks really agile and it is, but it not light. That's really my biggest complaint: it's heavy. That said, I've largely mitigated this by keeping it somewhere else, not upstairs anymore. I have not had much occasion to carry it since then.It's a really great value for the money, a more than fair price for a bike that looks cool and futuristic and will power your movement with ease. I'd say that for anyone looking for a new bicycle (barring being an elite athlete or something) that you definitely buy an electric bike, and as far as electric bikes go, this is the best value I could find.I have no regrets about this purchase and whole-heartedly recommend it. Thumbs up for Vivi!

Solid electric mountain bike
This was a gift for a 15 year old boy who needed transportation to and from his job that is 7 miles from home.The bike was fairly easy to assemble, but the instructions could have been better. Mainly my problem was that I did not know about the quick disconnect front wheel and how to assemble it. Talking with the folks at a local bike shop helped immediately and after that it was a breezeCharging is quick enough and the battery lasts for something like 20 + miles of travel on winding back roads, up and down hills.So far I am satisfied with the price and quality of what we got. I am marking down the star rating due to the issues with the instructions since that out of box experience could be much better and less frustrating.If you know how to assemble a modern bicycle, this is a good choice for a budget price. Now to see how well it holds up over time.

Guter Preis
Bin mit dem Rad inzwischen ca. 250 km gefahren. Zuerst muss man das Rad auf seine Bedürfnisse anpassen und einstellen, das heißt für mich als 1,80 Meter großer Mann muss eine andere Sattelstütze gekauft werden, die originale ist nur bis ca. 1,65 m größe tauglich. Kostet etwa 12€, der Fahrradständer ist etwas zu kurz, Zwischenplatte angebracht, jetzt steht das Rad stabil. Am Anfang hatte ich Problem mit dem relativ schnellen Anzug, wenn das Pedal bewegt wird, kann man Abhilfe schaffen, indem man den Gasgriff montiert und mit dem anfährt! Man muss sich etwas an das Rad gewöhnen, möchte esw aber nicht mehr missen! Für diesen Preis nehme ich die kleinen Mängel in Kauf! Ein stern Abzug wegen Sattelstütze und Radständer! Übrigens der Akku hält überwiegend in Stufe 2 gefahren und auch ordentliche Steigungen dabei, ca. 50 Kilometer, es können in dieser Stufe nahezu alle Steigungen bewälltigt werden! Verarbeitung des Rades ist sehr gut!Klare Kaufempfehlung!

Preis-Leistung super!!!
Fahrrad war innerhalb von 1 Woche mit dem DPD Versand da.Sehr gut verpackt. Keine Beschädigungen oder Probleme mit dem Versand aus Polen.Der erste Eindruck des Fahrrades ist sehr gut! Die erste Probefahrt mit dem Fahrrad hat super Spaß gemacht. Der Motor hat meines Erachtens eine gute Leistung und unterstützt mich gut. So macht auch endlich das Berghochfahren Spaß! Der Akku kann sehr einfach und schnell abgenommen werden und zuhause geladen werden. Das Fahrrad ist ohne Akku fast genauso so schwer wie ein normales Mountainbike und kann somit auch ohne Motor gut gefahren werden. Ich bin 160 cm groß und kann das Fahrrad mit niedrig eingestellten Sitz super fahren. Das Zusammenklappen funktioniert kinderleicht und somit kann das Fahrrad auch im Auto transportiert werden.Für den Preis ein mega gutes Fahrrad! Ich denke, gerade für Einsteiger, die sich das erste Mal an einem E-Bike versuchen, super! Ich bin positiv überrascht!Verkäufer sehr nett und antwortet auf Fragen.Ein zweites Fahrrad für meinen Mann wird folgen! :-)

Ein optisch echt cooles Rad. Der Aufbau war relativ einfach dank guter, leicht verständlicher Anleitung.Das Fahrrad wird nun täglich genutzt. Anfang recht ungewohnt wenn man noch nie so ein Rad gefahren ist aber langsam habe ich den Dreh raus. Die Gänge lasse sich leicht umschalten. Bergaufwärts ist für mich nun ein Kinderspiel. Es ist für mich eine richtiger Luxus. Der Akku wird schnell geladen so das auch wenn ich bei Bekannten bin da schnell mal aufladen kann und wieder los kann. Der Sattel wie auch Lenkrad lassen sich super auf die Körpergröße individuell einstellen. Das Fahrrad ist am end wie für einen gemacht. Danke für das tolle Fahrerlebnis wir sparen jetzt um meinem Mann auch eins zu kaufen.

Gut und Günstig
Wer ein günstiges E-Bike sucht ist hier richtig. Grundsätzlich überprüfe ich die Ware sofort nach Erhalt - so meine Empfehlung. Ich hatte ein technisches Problem, aber der Verkäufer war sehr bemüht, das rasch zu lösen. Fahrverhalten, Fahrspass, elektrischer Antrieb und die doppelte Federung ... alles wie erwünscht ...

La facilité pour s en servir
Après un petit problème avec la batterie résolu par le service après-vente, je suis content de l achat. Je peux le ranger dans mon camping car très facilement. J en avais pris 2 . Pas de regret. A conseiller.
