Bike Size Charts

BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.

We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.

It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Fiido X. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

10 reasons to buy

  • Reviewers compliment the magnesium frame’s “stunning” looks and “sleek” design.
  • Reviewers praise the X's range. One 200lb tester gets 30 miles using PAS 3 on a route with around 3 miles of steep climbs.
  • Experts report a “smooth,” “stable” ride and agile, confidence-inspiring handling.
  • The CST tires’ offer good grip and comfort on roads and light off-road routes, according to testers.
  • At 43lb, the X is relatively light for a folding e-bike.
  • Experts relish the “powerful” hydraulic brakes, one noting fade-free braking on steep descents.
  • Reviewers and owners say the X is easy to ride without assistance.
  • The torque sensor delivers smooth power, according to reviewers.
  • A reviewer appreciates the X's reliability through many months of riding, including heavy rain and freezing weather.
  • Fiido states a fitment range of 5’ to 6’5”. Two 6’1” testers agree it's very comfortable.

8 reasons not to buy

  • Buyers and testers experience rusting bolts. One buyer reports a broken hinge, and four complain of not receiving replacement bikes following a safety recall.
  • The “annoying” security keypad is considered a gimmick, especially as the X has no built-in lock and can be pedaled with the power off.
  • Experts bemoan the small, “basic” display.
  • Several testers lament the lack of handlebar adjustment.
  • The Fiido X lacks a carry handle.
  • The lights don’t work with the motor off, and the headlight doesn’t turn with the handlebars.
  • The X lacks fenders, a rack, and a chainguard.
  • The seatpost-integrated battery protrudes below the seat tube when the saddle is in its lowest position, making it vulnerable to knocks.

Bottom line

Fiido’s X is a Class 1 folding e-bike with a magnesium frame, 350W motor, and 418Wh seatpost-integrated battery. The V2 has been re-engineered to address the original X’s risk of frame failure. The low weight, “smooth” power delivery, and “decent” range impress testers, who praise the comfortable, confidence-inspiring ride and “powerful” brakes. Niggles include the “pointless” security keypad, basic display, and fixed headlight. Also, the X lacks a carry handle, rack, chainguard, and fenders. Buyers complain of rusting bolts, a broken hinge, and undelivered replacement bikes. Nonetheless, testers enjoy the X’s style and performance and recommend it as a “fun” runabout.
