The Arrival
When I came back to Australia i didnt have the funds to get another car. The e-bike looked like a great form of transport so I ordered one online from DYU .
Well my A5 arrived yesterday and after a charge I got to take it out this morning for a ride.
Its everything I had hoped, did almost 5 km without pedalling once.
Some information about the A5 version
The A5 electric bike is built with strong aluminium alloy frame with ultimate compact ability in the 3-stage fold.
The powerful 48V system, 250W motor and shock absorbing seat makes it a smooth and comfortable ride.

This gives you ultra compact storage for travelling long distance in a car or storing in the home/office.
All DYU Electric Bikes come with a 3 Year Warranty on the frame and 1 Year Warranty on electronics including battery, controller & motor.
The Brakes
After at least 1200 km’s the brake pads wore down to a dangerous level.
Obtaining new pads was a bit more difficult than i anticipated.
I am good at a lot of things but changing brake pads on the e-bike isnt one of them.
I organised Bill to come down once my new brake pads arrived.
Wrong Pads

The shop where i bought the bike sent me the new brake pads. They are the square ones shown above.
The round ones are the ones in the caliper. A square peg wont fit in a round caliper.
A few weeks later, Bill came down and changed them for me.
