The ADO Air 28 Pro features the BAFANG rear hub motor with dual automatic gearshift system, delivering 250 W nominal power and 40 Nm torque. Assistance is controlled by a dual-side torque sensor, ensuring precise, proportional response to rider effort for natural, fluid riding.
The BAFANG motor's dual automatic gearshift adapts transmission ratio in real time based on gradient and effort, eliminating any manual gear changes.
The Dutch-style frame (step-through) offers maximum accessibility and easy mounting/dismounting for daily use. The carbon belt drive eliminates any need for lubrication or chain replacement.

The ADO Air 28 Pro competes against models like the ENGWE N1 Air (£1,249, carbon frame, 360 Wh) and Tenways CGO600 Pro (£1,799, carbon belt, ANNADA motor). Its main differentiators are the BAFANG dual automatic gearshift motor and integrated turn signals, rare at this price.
Versus the ADO Air 28 (base model), the Pro adds: BAFANG motor (versus generic), automatic transmission, rear indicators and aluminium mudguards.
Its claimed 100 km range remains ambitious with a 345.6 Wh battery: in real use (moderate assist, flat terrain), expect 40 to 70 km instead.
