October 3, 2017 at 13:55Bike for a boom - electric, folding, smart
I want to highlight some of the pros and cons that I did not find on the network, well, and a little refresh the parameters as a whole.
Why I think this is a bike for a geek:
1. Awesome looks.
2. It is electro-great.
3. This is a smart electro-bike that helps to pedal very competently.
4. And he also has a computer and a connection to a smartphone.
Let's get started.
You will have to turn the pedals. It will be very easy but you have to twist. On this model there is no power button, but there is an awesome help system and it is perfectly balanced. In general, I am skeptical to all sorts of smart assistants and other "Intelligence", but everything is done awesome !
On the rear axle is a hall sensor, which is very accurate and fastdetermines with what force the pedal is depressed, and very accurately doses help with electric traction. That is, there are no extra stupid jerks that have to be braked, there are no problems starting uphill, which are other electric bicycles where the electronics do not monitor the force of pressing, but just watch the pedals spin or not. You just drive very easily and no problem. In addition to this, you can choose how much the motor should help you, there are 3 degrees of help + turning off the motor.
I admit, there were thoughts to put a button to turn on the engine, but after the first trips, these plans went into the longest drawer as “could be done, but it's good”.
If anyone advises how to do this easily and simply I will be grateful.
The on-board computer is almost entirely in Chinese, and so far there is no way to Russify or Anglo-Russify it. However, it is primitive enough to remember where it is located by pointing the Google translator’s camera a couple of times at it or by watching a couple of videos on YouTube. He also collects statistics in his memory and then knows how to upload it to the application when you perform bluetooth pairing with the phone.
Using the application, the bike firmware is updated. The first time you connect, you will be asked to install an international version on it, where the maximum speed will increase to 25 km / h against the original 20 km / h for the Chinese version. It will be necessary to press the top button on the on-board computer to confirm the update and wait about 5 minutes until the firmware is installed. Also, the application can be used as a computer screen, it displays real-time speed, and other trip parameters. It also collects statistics for all trips.
A cool feature of the bike with the front motor-wheel: four -wheel drive - pedal the rear wheel, the motor spins the front, it is very useful on a loose surface.
Motor: 250 W / 36 V brushless with a gearbox and an overrunning clutch that allows you to coast when the engine is idle, the manufacturer declared mileage up to 45 km in economy mode.
The maximum speed to which the motor helps: 25 km / h, of course you can go faster but only on your own without the help of the motor.
Battery: Panasonic 18650 x 20pcs x 2900 mAh = 58 Ah (208.8 Wh)
It is possible to easily remove the battery. To do this, push the seat up to the maximum, press the latch under the rear light and remove the battery by the rear light.
It can be very convenient, since you don’t need to carry the whole bike to the outletto charge it. It becomes possible to charge it at work, in a hotel, and other places where the presence of such units may be inappropriate. Initially, the battery is screwed with two screws, and this also has a rational grain: it can not be quickly pulled off if you left the bike unattended. So decide which option is more convenient for you: easy-removable or vandal-resistant, removing these screws does not affect anything, since the battery is held in place by a latch and pierced through the seat rod.
The headlight, so to speak, it provides the necessary minimum, I personally feel completely comfortable with it in the total darkness up to a speed of 15 km / h, higher attention is already required. She does not have regular adjustments, but there is a desire to turn it up a little, since the beam power would be quite enough for a further exposure. The location on the frame has both advantages and disadvantages: it does not rotate with the steering wheel, it does not provide full illumination of the direction. However, it’s possible to write down the advantages of the fact that the beam does not rush from side to side, but sways very pacifyingly, I personally like it. The glass has a faceting to form the correct shape of the beam, in the beam of the headlight there is a moderate flare on the sides, obviously to compensate for the non-twisting of the headlight. For lovers of night driving, I recommend an additional powerful headlamp.
Dimensions: length 129 cm, height 96 cm, steering wheel span 56 cm, the distance between the centers of the axles of the wheels 87 cm.
Weight: 14.5 kg, which is a very good indicator, the analogs exceed the mark of 17 kg.
Nissan Juke fits right into the compact trunk, so it will fit very easily in the trunk of normal cars:
If there is very little space, the seat can be removed and put separately from the bike, this will make it even more compact.
Three pedaling speeds allow you to ride comfortably even without a motor, so there is no fear of discharging the battery while walking. The planetark is a beautiful bushing! Unlike the traditional one with asterisks, the planetary hub is closed, unattended, very reliable and can change gears not only sequentially, but also arbitrarily, from any to any.
In the photo from left to right:
1. The planetary gear selector, plastic, it is advisable to put protection.
2. Black blamba - the same pedal force sensor, which makes the help magic of the motor.
3. An asterisk with a chain.
4. The wheel.
5. Roller brake.
6. The holding magnet is large when folded, it also has a hole for attaching the wing pillar.
Rear brake - Roller. Not a very ordinary design but it has several advantages: Powerful; Full independence from dust, dirt, water and snow; No rim wear Possibility of long work without adjustments and settings.
Steering wheel - met two unreasonable complaints on the network:
The first myth is that the steering wheel has a clearance supposed to be folding. Obviously, a person simply does not know that in the folding unit there is an adjustment of the latch force, a hexagon bolt. And in general, surprisingly, the bike is assembled and stretched very soundly, there are no complaints about this.
The second myth - for folding, you need to unscrew the bolt under the hexagon. It is not necessary to unscrew it, it is just an adjustment of the latch force, they need to set the desired interference once and do not touch it anymore. The bicycle is completely folding and unfolding very easily and without tools.
If necessary, adjust the height of the steering wheel, in stores there is an analog of this steering rack (also folding) with the ability to adjust the height.
Regular pedals without bearings, just an iron axis and a plastic pedal, and between them - grease. Despite such asceticism, there are no complaints yet, they may appear after some time as they wear out.
If you make any modifications, do not forget to analyze what will be in the folded state. Therefore, I recommend that you consider the original set of wings and the parking leg, since the folding of the rear wing is provided in it to provide the ability to roll great when folded.
Due to the lack of shock absorbers, it is useful to install a wider rubber. There is a margin of space, you can install tires, for example, 2.25 inches. Native wheels - pneumatic 16x1.75 inches. I also plan to put a softer seat with springs and maybe a seat post with a shock absorber because it’s harsh on the ground, I feel that I belong to the city class.
A question that interested me but I couldn’t find an answer on the net: A
seatpost with a saddle mount is pressed into the pipe to regulate the height of the saddle, and if you want to deploy or replace it, you will have to remember the locksmith skills. The pipe is not round; there is a groove to prevent the seat from turning.
Note:For the first inclusion, you may need to connect the bike to the network, despite the fact that the battery is charged. However, charging has a Chinese plug, and if you want to turn it on when you buy, you need to have either an adapter for an outlet, or you can use a completely different outlet-charging wire, as it has a standard connector on the charging side. With this, I got into trouble, because I was getting great at the post office and because of the non-standard plug, there was no way to fully check it. I relied on the integrity of factory seals on the box, I was lucky, everything turned on at home when connected to the network.
Take care of your health without waiting for problems, do not stay too long at home, all asset and positive!
