Hi all,
I am a long time cyclist (U.K.) but have only had an ebike since March this year. I bought a Volt Burlington and am impressed with it. I joined the forum mainly for advice on choosing an ebike for my partner. We are currently checking out the shops near us in the South East for a low step through with good range and smallish wheels. 20” folders are not comfortable for her and so we are thinking 24” wheels. Waiting to try a Volt Kensington soon but have just tried a Wisper 705. What are Wisper bikes like? Good points, bad points. Any other recommendations bearing in mind where we live?
 
The only folding 24" bike I know of is the airnimal Joey of Cambridge. It is not electric, you have to install your own kit. https://airnimal.co/products/joey I installed a kit on my yuba left in the avatar, about 9000 miles ago. Wiring is unsightly but with crimp on dorman insulated terminals, abolutely reliable.

Thanks Indianajo, I may have confused everyone! Have decided that we do not want any size folder. Thought that the 15” frame with 24” wheels is the way to go (not folding). My partner has a full size Pendleton at the moment but something a little smaller would be better.
