Here at YOIKOTO, we believe light electric transport is the way forward, for a fast and clean method of transport. While electric cars are still unaffordable for the majority of us, our vehicles offer an affordable solution, both in the long and short term. We aim to offer products for those without a high budget, but still wanting the best in quality and service. The cost of charging an electric moped is, on average, less than 1p per mile.

Tried to contact the company twice…

Tried to contact the company twice about faults with the bike and also to ask for advice on spares etc. still awaiting reply and am considering returning it. Although they protest that they did reply to me.........it wasn't until I got on here. The tone is also annoyed and I helpful. Yes I bought from a different stockist. It IS yoikoto bike that is falling apart and it is this that they don't seem very helpful with.....spare batteries advice is fine then online we don't sell them. As for the broken part I asked for, no reply to that bit of the email.
If they keep insisting I'm being dishonest about this they can have screenshot of the emails they already have

Mr Robinson ,this platform is so easy to leave a negative experience which is a shame ,we have replied to you and as mentioned in the email we don't have any of your details as you did not purchase this ebike directly from us we suggested you get in touch with your supplier.

We would appreciate you changing your negative review as this is not a true reflection.

Electronics failed after 700 miles

The electrics failed after 700 miles on my Yoikoto Yoizen rendering it useless. I've owned bikes all of my adult life and this is the first one to become unusable after just 700 miles, two months out of warranty. To put this into context the tyres have lasted longer than the electrics!

Yoikoto G2 ebike

Really well designed ebike, Yoikoto G2 in black and yellow., purchased one from their ebay store with a great discount, the frame is a nice style unlike some ebikes, it looks like a decent mountain bike with the battery incorporated into the downtube. Mostly Shimano parts brakes/gears etc the electronics are easy to use and work well, pedal assist kicks in after a turn of the pedals, it's limited to 15.5 mph as is necessary and has 5 power levels. The forks are a "no name" brand but work OK for me
The saddle is well designed and comfortable with a comfort groove. Took me a while to workout how to turn the lights on (press and hold the "up" button) on the display unit, speed and power level are displayed and there is a millimeter.
Overall a really good ebike that looks good, works well and was under half the price of major brands.

Yoikoto E-temp.

I went for the red E-temp, and so far it's everything I could have hoped for. 54 y/o chap who's done a fair bit of mountain biking in my time, and needed to get back in the saddle. This bike for the price is fantastic, looks great, goes well, and makes you look like a much fitter rider. Got if from Yoikoto on ebay for like £400 less than RRP makes it even better.

Kristal E5 pro

The bike i brought a year ago is very different from the bike i have now. If i knew now what the bike was going to be like i would never have brought it.
1 They dont specify weight load on the website. Only after 6 months did i realise i was over the expected weight load for this bike.
2 The brakes were substandard for this bike. Yes they did replace them but i have no end off trouble since. I have since converted to hydraulic brakes.
3 The rear wheel and spokes are substandard and not made to either carry my weight nor the motor ensconced in it. I have gone through nearly a rear wheels worth of spokes trying to get it right.
4 And the gears and derrialuer are off a substandard quality. My derailleur has broken twice only to be told by 'customer services' it was wear and tear.
5 Dont buy a bike from them unless you have seen it in person and in the shop.
The only 2 things of quality about the bike are the box it came in and the bike cover.

Response from customer services is as expected. Poor grammar and always blaming the cyclist and not the bicycle.

I wont be buying anything from you again as the aftercare service is terrible

Thank you for your feedback ,we have many happy customers who are riding this bike that have done many thousands if miles .
Maintaining your bike is important to make sure that you do have many years of enjoyable riding.
Depending on what you are using the cycle for and what you are doing with it it is not easy to break any cycle spokes and go through derailleurs unless you are riding incorrectly and are looking to do more than the cycle is capable of.
These will need replacing over time regardless of how much you money spend on the component ,
So our simple advise is ,if you look after your cycle it will look after you.

We hope you enjoy your new cycle and remember look after it.

Thank you for the reply ,we are always here to help , the facts are ,customer ordered once on ebay cancelled and we refunded his money ,he then ordered again ,than wanted his money back the day he received the bike ,(not even out of the box) the same day told Pay pal he didn't have the bike so Pay pal held payment even though he had called us saying he didn't want the bike.
We have offered him his money back again from day one ,we are a straight forward friendly company that does not condone customers acting improperly towards staff and leaving trust pilot reviews that are totally incorrect ,WE HAVE HUNDREDS OF LOVERLY CUSTOMER REVIEWS ON EBAY.
we will continue to support our customers in everyway for them to enjoy there purchase experience.

This was a nightmare start to finish .I…

This was a nightmare start to finish .I paid for the bike outright it took three days to come it says over night .The bike turned up it had done 63 km then had a bad click when you pedaled as this was off a new bike I had to get my neighbour to wait in for it and took to days for collection .I then had to email them every day about.my refund when they said they had sent it in the end they sent they fast payment to me even though they said they had sent which was another lie in my experience I would avoid this shop as my bike broke straight away they lied about refund saying it was done and would take five days when they had not processed it at all and ended up doing a fast payment .I stand by my word the bike was faulty and clicked when you pedaled never mind it was fine and was found not to be faulty watch the video shows is a complete lie these bikes are made of cheap parts example clicking when you pedal the forks shows signs of mist of oil which had to be be wiped and that bike was faulty and have the
videos to show just more lies from this company but if you buy from them it will be at your own risk

Thank you for the review ,unfortunately their was a delay in the delivery which was out of our control, this was a new bike straight out of the box and cycles randomly have their motors tested to make sure we keep a good level of reliability.

We only can apologize again if the experience was not up your personal standards ,it is a shame that the cycle mentioned that was returned we have found to be operating perfectly ,however we did offer you a refund upon return of the cycle which was made within 5 days as per our email.

Terrible customer service!

Cheap kit bike, poorly constructed. I'd made allowances for "cosmetic" damage caused by staff building the bike but this should have been the first red flag.

I'm disabled so don't ride very much. I used the bike twice before the electric part failed. I took the bike back to the store and spoke to the staff member there. He called the manager who informed me that it would cost £25 to repair. He said he has been in the business for 100 (!) years and he knows that I dropped the bike - I guarantee you, when I am paying this much money for a bike, I'm going to be taking the utmost care of it. Had the bike been dropped, there would have been damage to the handlebar grips but there was no such damage.

I spoke with several eBike experts who assured me that the bike was cheap and poorly made and that sensor failures were common.

The manager of the store spoke to me in a manner I wouldn't speak to my worst enemy in. Customer service was nonexistent.

Eventually, the manager told me to take the bike without paying for the repair but to not bother coming back again. It was at this point I decided I no longer wished to be a customer here.

After much arguing, I eventually got a refund.

I would shop literally anywhere else!

For the record, they only offered to fix it for free AFTER speaking to me like a piece of sh!t and I was NOT happy with the outcome. I didn't even take the bike after that. Giving me a refund doesn't change the sh!tty customer service I received.

Awesome bikes

Just bought the Yoikoto City and I love it. It rides like a normal bike without peddle assist unlike my first ebike. Its a very smooth ride with and without power and it's a real pleasure to ride. Stewart is amazing, answered all my questions and there was no pressure to buy. Awesome bikes.
