There was a time when we did double takes if we saw a folding bike. They felt like a novelty at first encounter.
Fast forward to 2024 and they are EVERYWHERE. They are easily one of the more popular categories of bike thanks to how portable they are. Sedan drivers, RVers and more all can take them easily.
Our team has reviewed hundreds of e-bikes, and folders are ones we field TONS of questions about. Here's our pick amongst the best performers from our testing.

I have an ENGWE L20 2.0. Paid 699.00 have had it over 28mph....21-80 mile range , dual suspension....I like my bike a lot. Especially for the money...

@lbeck37 14 дней назад

I've had several e-bikes and I was looking for one that was small enough to fit two in the back of our 2017 Chevy Volt. I found one on Amazon, that is currently (May '24) about $500 including shipping,. "Vivi M026TGB 26" Folding Electric Mountain Bike with 500W Motor, 48V". I was skeptical as it sounded too good to be true, but I was surprised how good they are. I like the fact that they are full size 26" with full suspension. They fold up nicely, look pretty sharp, and the battery seems to give a solid 20 miles of range, which is really my limit before my butt gets too sore. :) I was used to paying over $1,000 (closer to $2,000) for our e-bikes and was surprised how OK these were at such a low price.

I love the XP Lite it is so light and nimble. My wife and I love going on bike rides together, it is one of our favorite hobbies.

Nothing else would fit in my cramped Honda Accord Hybrid trunk, so Lectric Lite was the best choice for me (and I wasn't about to pay Brompton prices!).

Nice bike but not a long ride on the battery. Good for short distance and slower speeds.

@GIedits-vf7re 14 дней назад

If you need to fold down to get on the subway or perhaps a city apartment, brompton is the best and smallest folding bike.please review their ebike as well as the carbo model s (350 w) which is also lightweight while offering a bit more power than a brompton

The Gocycle G4i should be reviewed if the Brompton is. Also, the new Gocycle CXi & CX+ Family Cargo electric bikes, with a total load of 480 pounds, while itself weighs 50.0 pounds. (Gocycle is not for the bargain hunter, but neither is Brompton. Must be a UK thing!)

Would have been nice if you guys included the Electric XP Trike model. It’s a folding trike made by LECTRIC and really great deal at $1,499. It’s great for those of us, like me, that have limited mobility and prefer the stability and in this case the convenience a folding e-trike offers. Perhaps an E-trike review coming soon?

@quantumfx2677 19 часов назад

Hopefully they get out the reverse trike with independent suspension, they don't tip over like a normal trike and much safer and incredibly smooth comfortable ride on the back when going over bumps!

@nataliepierce-shult1052 14 дней назад

Very bad experience with my lectric 3.0 first when I got it I had the battery stolen off my porch then the range that I was getting with it was only 10 to 12 miles on PAS one and then it fell out of my semi truck and hit the ground and broke in half Cracked right up the hinge. I bought a used 2.0 and absolutely loved it. Something about the components with the 3.0 just aren’t as good. I now have the rad expand five and it is the best bike by far over lectric. Long-haul trucker and I have to have a bike that folds to keep it in the cab passenger seat of my truck so I can go on rides I get in a good 50 to 75 miles a week.

@deborahfleming7174 12 дней назад

@user-vm7db1gn6k 13 дней назад

I want a foldable step through with enough power to pull a trailer for my dogs and be able to climb big hills. Is there something out there for me, preferably with 2 1000watt motors and maybe 2 batteries? I don't need speed, just power by way of torque!

@@ElectricBikeReport no, I've been riding a super73, but I've been in the market for more of a work bike, that possibly folds, and that Engwe is definitely at the top of my list.

Folding bikes should not make a person look like a circus Bear on a bike. Yet be light for a lady to manage it into a minivan.. 12 ah is fine but a strong 75 Nm or so. Hydraulic brakes and suspension great lights front and rear.. a comfy seat. Not much to ask for in the $700 range..

What a joke. You pass this video off as real analysis, but it's so obvious that it was just an advertisement for every one of these bikes. I've had many different folding ebikes over the years. And there are obvious attributes and deficiencies of each. You did a prospective buyer absolutely no service. You never addressed any weaknesses or deficiencies of these models. So buyers out there beware, this is not the channel that gives any worthwhile information. Even if I wanted one of these bikes, I would definitely not click on your affiliate link because you don't deserve it. Shame on you.

@ElectricBikeReport 14 дней назад

Hi Mark, Just a reminder, the first link in the video description takes you to our written best folding page. From there you'll find links to individual reviews for each bike (written or video, except the Mokwheel Slate which should be live within a week) where you'll get all the in-depth testing and analysis along with the good and bad of each bike. The purpose of this video was to share what we liked most about each of these ones since they are ones we often recommend, or because they were standouts from our testing. We hope that helps ✌️

@chaxologist2961 12 дней назад

Yeah, it's a joke that they jump straight to the 2024 audacity when they haven't reviewed a folding e-bike that's been out over a year that's essentially the superior version of the Aventon Sinch 2. Sad to see the Hovsco Hovbeta being the overlooked, overshadowed black sheep despite being an Aventon Sinch 2 on steroids.
