Hi ElevenAD and rich c thanks for your input. I did look at the Montague and seems like a great folding ebike. It’s just a little too big to fit two in my small sedan, one on the back seat and one in the trunk. I’m limited to the 20” wheels unfortunately. I currently have a Brompton...

Which brand of folding bike would ride closest to a regular bike when not using pedal assist? As I continue my search for a folder, I’m looking for a bike with decent torque. (No hub motor/cadence sensor/or fat tires). Any thoughts and insights would be greatly appreciated. I value...

Wow, I considered buying a Vika + at one point because I liked the look. Have you contacted Blix about the issue?

Great pics! Thanks for sharing!!

Vincent, I know, I think you’ve been looking for similar specs as I have. I also really like this new 2022 Cube Fold Hybrid. Just not sure if it will be made available in North America. https://ebiketips.road.cc/content/news/cube-adds-electric-folder-and-dutch-style-city-e-bike-to-2022-range-3251

Just noticed that the Dash in now coming with a 5-speed Sturmey Archer IGH.

That Grin Brompton kit looks pretty decent.

You sure know how to build them!

So basically you’re saying I won’t be spinning out as quickly but the compromise will be not so low gear range?

I know what you mean by the twitchy steering. I came too close to a guard rail near a bridge a few weeks back and I didn’t want to damage the Brompton, so I stuck my arm out and damaged my arm instead, ouch! Never heard of the Grin kit. I’ll have to look that up. The Swytch kit is a front...

Street Peddler, I beat you, I’ve actually watched about 3 zillion reviews ;) and I’ve rented and test drove several. My brother is expected to get his Lectric bikes next week and I’m sure he’ll be happy with them, but I’m looking for something a little more refined and unfortunately a lot more...

Looks like the drivetrain on that Evelo Dash is listed as Gates Carbon CDX Carbon Belt 64T/24T Rear Cog. Will that make a difference in gear range?

RunForTheHills, thanks for your insight. I own a 6-speed Brompton myself and although there’s that goofy 2 speed derailleur, I’ve always found with the addition of the 3-speed Archer IGH, it provides for a decent wide gear range. I’m just afraid with only a 5-speed Sturmey Archer IGH on an...

Interesting, in my first post I mentioned the Evelo Dash with a 3-speed Shimano IGH. Looks like Evelo will now be producing it with the 5-Speed IGH Sturmey Archer RX-RK5. Does anyone have any experience with that Sturmey Archer? Does it provide enough gear range for that small folder?

Thanks for clarifying.

Interesting you say that after telling me in another thread and I quote, “Folders are overrated. Get yourself a non folder and enjoy.”

Are you sure about that Scrambler? Because if you read the side of that adapter in Post #10 it says,”Maximum Tongue weight is the LOWEST of the following: 1. 50% of your trailer hitch tongue weight or 2. Tongue weight marking of this product (350lbs)

Jolo100, I ran into the same problem as you in trying to find a hitch and rack that would be secure for my Toyota Yaris, 1-1/4” / Class 1. I finally gave up because I really didn’t have many options on racks that I liked and didn’t have a lot of wobble. So instead, I will be focusing on...

So Cube is introducing its first folder based on the Cube Compact Hybrid which Court reviewed favorably. Check it out: https://ebiketips.road.cc/content/n...nd-dutch-style-city-e-bike-to-2022-range-3251 The Cube Fold Hybrid will be available in both belt drive/5-speed gear hub and...

Pedaluma’s Lazy Boy looks too nice to pedal. Heck, I just want to lounge in it. ;)
