Xiaomi Smart 250W Power 25km/h 16" Wheel TFT Display Folding E--Bike (Scratched)

The Xiaomi Mi Smart Electric Folding Bike is designed for urban commuting and mixing cycling with other forms of transport. It's a compact folding bike built around a lightweight aluminium alloy frame that folds down for easy storage and portability, making it suited to city riders who need to combine pedalling with public transport or car journeys. The 16-inch wheels and compact geometry mean it takes up minimal space when folded, and at around 15kg, it's manageable to carry though heavier than many traditional folding bikes.

The motor is a 250W front hub unit that cuts off at 25km/h, keeping within UK electric bike regulations. It's paired with a rear wheel force sensor that reads how hard you're pedalling and adjusts the motor assistance accordingly, which helps reduce rider fatigue without feeling like the bike is doing all the work. There are four riding modes with different levels of assistance, so you can dial in the amount of electric help to match the terrain and your energy levels on any given commute.

For gearing, there's a Shimano internal hub with three speeds, which keeps maintenance straightforward and works fine for typical urban riding. The braking setup uses a front rim brake and a Shimano IM31 roller brake at the rear, both suited to the lower speeds and stop-start nature of city cycling. The 5800mAh lithium-ion battery stores enough charge for everyday urban journeys, and the 36V system is relatively compact and integrated into the frame.

Day to day, this bike handles predictably in traffic thanks to the small wheels and responsive geometry. The TFT display mounted on the handlebars shows battery level, speed, and distance, giving you feedback on range and power usage. The bike weighs enough that folding and unfolding becomes a deliberate action rather than something you do casually, but once you've done it a few times it becomes routine. The aluminium construction keeps corrosion at a minimum in urban conditions.

This unit is graded as scratched, meaning it has cosmetic wear from use but functions as normal. The Xiaomi Mi Smart suits commuters in cities where the last-mile problem is real – getting from home to the train station, or from a bus stop to the office – and riders who need something that collapses small enough to take on public transport or store in a tight flat. It's aimed at practical urban mobility rather than recreational cycling, and it delivers that purpose without unnecessary complications.
