Default Anyone riding foldable bikes?

Hubby and I are looking to buy some folding bikes to take with us RVing. Anyone purchased an Lectric or EUNORAU or any other brand of folding bike that we could look at and get your opinion on? Sorry, only interested in your opinion if you have a folding bike. Thanks in advance

There is no shortage of choices. Every choice has plusses and minuses. Small wheels is a small bike but they do not do well except on paved roads. Power on the front wheel means more weight in the front than most are comfortable with-used to. Power through the normal drive-optional power assist means a heavier bike if you choose to peddle as well as the usual complexity plus a weaker frame and folding cables.

No shortage of opinions. Like most things I would read on the internet. Decide what YOU want to do with the bike. Decide your understanding, repair skills etc as well as budget. RVing. Parts for a conventional bike as well as people to repair them are far more common than for an electric bike. We've all seen people who need to call a friend with a car to pick them up when they get a flat and drop the bike off at a bike shop.. An electric bike, a folding electric bike, it gets more complex to fix the flat and get the bike back together and working properly.

Thanks for your comments -I am doing my due diligence in researching them but I want to touch and see for myself instead of relying on the internet only. … plus I value other owners experience and opinions.
