So Khai, did you fix it? Was there solution to the flaky computer or did you sell it on, or is it now gathering dust in some cupboard?
I’m was offered one for just under £500. However I’m 6’2 & 250lbs. Following your review it just doesn’t seem worth the headache. Dyam shame!!!!!

I bought this a couple of weeks ago from nycewheels and I'm beginning to regret it. It's the best looking folding e-bike *available* (there are lots of cool concepts, but this is the best one in production), and I get people asking me about it every time I ride it. The main source of my regret is that the computer is starting to become flaky. It's supposed to detect when you need assistance and then turns the motor on. It worked great for the first few days, but now seems to be turning on less and less (fully charged). Also regrettable is the cheap plastic console. It got knocked loose today so I'll have to figure out a way to fasten it back into the original position, otherwise it slides down and swings around. Its placement results in it banging into any poles that I lock it to. Because of the frame design, the only secure way to lock it is by including the central beam. The final regret is that it's too heavy, so when the motor doesn't turn on it's a beast to pedal, especially because the handlebar positioning makes it awkward to lean forward to exert pedal power. There's also a lot of wiggle in handlebars and the pedals flex and squeak (I'm only 165 lbs). I'm sure I'll figure out a way to fix the console, but if the computer dies then this bike will be useless. Not recommended, don't buy.

Sometimes I ride the bike for exercise with my girl friend.
But she always can’t keep up with me…
We have a new choice to buy the db0 bike now.
I think that I can make more interaction with my girl friend.

Images of the girl and the robot are distracting and does not give a clear view of the design. The last picture is better. I would like to own something like this but the folding cylinder bulk is a bit too much for me. But I would love to try it and see how it feels!
