Product Information

Full details

The Virum Step Folding E-Bike is an ideal solution for urban commuters living in compact apartments who need a reliable, stylish, and portable transportation method. Its primary strength lies in its 18 kg lightweight foldable frame, which allows for effortless storage in tight spaces; however, potential riders should be aware that the 60 km maximum range is best suited for shorter city trips rather than long-distance touring.

FAQs

How long does it take to charge the battery?

Typically, the 36V 10Ah Samsung battery takes 4 to 6 hours to charge from empty to full.

Can I replace the seat post with a standard one?

No, the seat post houses the battery and electrical connectors, so it must remain on the bike for power.

Is the bike suitable for rain?

Yes, the components are weather-resistant, and the mudguards help protect you from road spray, but do not submerge the motor in deep water.

What does MIK mean for the carrier tray?

MIK is a universal mounting standard that allows you to click-in compatible bags and baskets securely to the rack.

Does it require professional assembly?

While the bike comes mostly assembled, having a local bike shop perform a safety check is recommended for optimal performance.

Troubleshooting

Motor assist not engaging

Ensure the battery is firmly seated in the seat post and that the power button is fully activated.

Brakes feel spongy

Check the hydraulic lines for air bubbles or leaks; if air is present, the system may require a professional bleed.

Difficulty folding the frame

Clear any grit or debris from the folding hinges and apply a small amount of bicycle-grade lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ultra-lightweight design at 18 kg for easy transport
  • Clean, minimalist Scandinavian aesthetics
  • High-quality components like Samsung battery and Shimano gears
  • Hydraulic disc brakes offer superior safety
  • Convenient removable battery design

Cons

  • 60 km range may be limiting for extended daily commutes
  • Smaller wheels typical of folding bikes may feel less stable at high speeds
  • Maximum speed is capped at 25 km/h

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure all frame hinges are securely locked before every ride. The bike arrives mostly pre-assembled, but it is recommended to verify the torque on the handlebars and seat post. Maintenance involves keeping the drivetrain clean and lubricated, as well as periodically checking the `Tektro` hydraulic fluid levels. The Samsung battery should be kept between 20-80% charge for long-term health when not in use for extended periods. Always ensure the MIK carrier tray is tightened properly before loading heavy items.
