Mi QiCYCLE Folding Electric Bicycle

Determined to become the “Muji” brand of the technology industry, Chinese brand Xiaomi has expanded their product range from housewares, such as IH pressure rice cookers, LED intelligent lamps, heated kettles and other appliances, to their latest price-friendly electric powered folding bike – QiCYCLE.

Unlike a conventional bicycle or an electric car, the QiCYCLE’s power is generated by the user’s cycling motion. When the rider must climb a slope or ride against the wind, the 250W electric motor and Shimano three-speed gearing provide assisted pedaling. The focus of the QiCYCLE is its patented foldable design. It folds down to half of its initial size, and its 14.5kg weight makes it easy to carry into a lift or place in a car trunk. The QiCYCLE also comes with four pedaling modes to cater to the needs of fitness, travel, energy saving and more. The 18,650mAh built-in lithium battery can achieve a 45km cruising distance on a full charge. The QiCYCLE has an onboard computer, with a small display screen on the handle enabling a rider to monitor mileage, speed, power, the calorie consumption and other data. The data is saved for up to 30 days. Users can also connect to a companion smartphone app via Bluetooth, to check the status of the bike, the distance traveled, and GPS navigation information. Those interested in this folding marvel can visit their official website to learn more.
