Bicycles with electric motors are becoming increasingly popular, as they make riding easier and save power. An electric folding bike is also very practical to take with you everywhere or to clean up. It takes up very little space when folded.

In our checklist you will learn what you should consider when buying. In addition, our recommendations with the top 7 electric folding bikes will help you.

Checklist Electric Folding Bikes

Drive Type
  • On a front-wheel drive electric folding bike, the drive motor is located in the hub of the front wheel. Front wheel hub drives are inexpensive. However, this type of drive has the disadvantage that the front wheel tends to slip in wet conditions.
  • E-folding bikes with a mid-motor are rare. They offer balanced weight distribution and neutral handling. The disadvantage is that mid-motor designs in bicycle frames are relatively complex and therefore expensive.
  • In a rear-wheel drive electric folding bike, the motor sits in the hub of the rear wheel. This arrangement is advantageous on wet roads, as the driven wheel is sufficiently loaded by the rider and frame.
Frame Size
  • When buying an electric folding bike, you should pay attention to the size.
  • Folding bikes are generally built very compact. Important measurements are the maximum seat height and the maximum height of the handlebars.
  • The distance between the pedals and the seat and the distance between the seat and the handlebars are also important criteria when choosing.
Folding Dimension
  • The folding dimension indicates how big the electric folding bike is when you fold it.
  • This measurement is important for judging whether the folding bike will fit in your trunk.
Motor Power
  • If the motor has a maximum power of 250 watts, it is a folding pedelec. You can ride these electric folding bikes without a driver’s license.
  • If the power is 500 watts, then it is an S-pedelec. For this you need a class M driver’s license. The minimum age is 16 years.
Battery Capacity And Range
  • The battery capacity plays an important role for the range of an e-pedelec.
  • The higher the capacity of the battery, the greater the range. For an electric folding bike, the range on one battery charge averages between 50 and 100 km.
Gear Shift
  • Electric folding bikes are available with hub gears and with derailleur ge ars.
  • With hub gears, the number of ge ars is limited. With derailleur gears, up to 21 gears are possible.
Brakes
  • Most electric folding bikes are equipped with rim brakes on the front and rear wheel.
  • However, hydraulic or mechanical disc brakes are more effective and safer.
