Folding

One of the biggest advantages of a folding bike is space and comfort. A folding bike is easy to ride short distances, to transport and to store in tight spaces. A folding bike is a bike that is always close at hand. It's easy to put it in the boot when you're at the seaside or on a sightseeing trip, or even in your suitcase when you're on the plane. Once you've folded your bike, you can enjoy all the comforts of a bike away from home. It's also very useful for commuting to and from work and living in an apartment building. Unlike traditional bicycles, you can easily take it with you to your workplace. These advantages are due to the slightly different design of the bike.

Folding bikes are designed to fold quickly and easily, taking up as little space as possible and eliminating the need for special bike racks.
For these reasons, these bikes are available with smaller tyres, 20" or 24", which makes the bike easier to transport. Folding bikes are best suited for people between 160 and 180 cm tall. For shorter people, a folding bike with a 20" wheel size is more suitable, while for taller people, a folding bike with 24" wheels is a better choice.
A folding bike has one or more of 3, 6, 7 or 8 gears, foot and/or hand brakes, an aluminium or steel frame, a comfortable saddle, a lighting kit, a carrier, and a chain guard. The manufacturers of folding bikes we offer are Romet and Azimut.

What's important when choosing a folding electric bike?

A folding electric bike is really useful as a means of transport in many situations. However, buyers looking for the best choice are advised to take into account the parameters and functionality of the products on offer. Here are the criteria you should consider when choosing this type of bike for yourself or the whole family.

1. The destination and route

The first step in finding the best folding electric bike is to define what are the main conditions of the trip. Will it be used only on city streets or will it also need to tackle backcountry and country trails? This is a very important criterion because different bikes have different capabilities. Not all electric bikes are designed for long-distance trips.

2. Battery capacity

One of the main advantages of an electric bike is the electric motor, but this function depends on the battery capacity. It is important to know that a higher capacity does not mean that it is the best solution. The weight and the ability to recharge it must be taken into account, as a bike that weighs a lot becomes harder to handle, and if the road is long and there are a lot of hills, the battery can be drained quickly.

One of the most important features of a folding bike is its weight and its ability to fold quickly. If the bike is going to be carried around a lot or used on public transport, a lightweight and compact bike is a lifesaver. You can also check the folding mechanism and make sure it will be stable and durable by visiting our physical stores or by looking at our bicycle models online.

4. Frame material

Frame material has a big impact on the weight and impact resistance of the bike. The most common frames on the market are aluminium or steel. Aluminium is lighter and is therefore the frame of choice for people who do a lot of riding in the city, while a steel frame is more durable but heavier. You should also be aware that the frames of the more expensive electric bicycles are made of carbon fibre.

5. Ride stability

Stability is an important characteristic to consider when choosing a bike. A stable ride will ensure safety and a more enjoyable ride. The geometry of the bike, the size of the wheels and the type of tyres affect the stability of the ride . So, testing it out in the real world would be a real benefit.

6. Motor power and speed

Electric bikes are available in our shops in a wide range of power and speeds. Depending on your preferences, you can choose a bike with a motor that just keeps you pedalling or one that provides the most assistance. However, many folding electric bikes are designed for urban riding and have limited speeds.

7. Comfort and ergonomics

Equally important is the comfort of the seat and handle. Especially if you are planning longer journeys, it is important to have a good seat and comfortable hand-hold. Make sure the bike has adjustable components so that you can adapt them to your body proportions.

8. Security systems

No security system should be overlooked. Most folding electric bikes have built-in security features such as safety locks or GPS tracking. This will give you more peace of mind when the bike is left unattended. In the event of theft, it will be easy to trace the bike's location with a dedicated app on your phone.

What is important when choosing a folding e-bike?

When choosing the best folding e-bike, it is important to carefully consider the aspects that suit your individual needs and travel habits. It is also important to consult experienced dealers and read public reviews on . A properly selected bike will be a reliable companion for your daily urban journeys and will help you to get to the places you want to go easily and in an environmentally friendly way.

(Not) all e-bikes can be ridden by children

While electric bikes may be attractive with their technological capabilities, their use is intended for adults or older teenagers. Despite the fact that these vehicles are fun and faster than traditional bicycles, they also have higher risks. Children may find it difficult to control such vehicles and this may pose a safety risk. Children should start with simple bikes, learning safe riding and skills before moving on to more complex technologies. So, avoid giving them to children, especially when restricted by law.

Difficult to decide?

So, when you take the step into the next generation of urban transport, be careful and evaluate all the offers on carefully. Assess your needs and priorities, compare different models and choose not only the functionality of but also the convenience. With the right choice, the folding electric bike will not only become a great and practical example of a vehicle, but also a sustainable vision for the future of urban transport.
