What you guys think? Is the small tyre size will going to cost any instability etc?

Thanks for your opinion.

Hi Dhori
Can't comment on the one your looking at but having ridden folding e-bikes in many countries and I have never found the bike unstable , me yes but the bike no !
If your in London on the 18th come down to Battersea and try some as we are having an open day but I should also say that they will be a bit more than your budget
Have Fun !

Hye ya,

Thanks for quick response. Been to your website in particulat to find about this IZIP EZGO Folder Electric Bike. Don't you have any discounted bike below 500

Well, just worry that 12" type type is going to shaking when riding down steeper hill.

Cheers

Dhorl,

Welcome to the forum

If you look just a few threads down or click HERE there was a recent discussion about folding Ebikes.

And yes anything that uses wheels that are less than 16", is likely to be pretty uncomfortable on anything but very flat surfaces.

Regards

Jerry

And such small wheels can be dangerous on today's potholed roads. With cars close by it's not always possible to avoid a sudden pothole, and the result can be the front wheel stopping dead in a deep pothole and you going over the handlebars. The safe minimum wheel size is really 16".

 

[Dhorl]

Awesome . That's was cool feedback. Now, I should start rethink on my option.. Thanks buddy!

What about this one for £369 including free delivery . Look at Woosh and it`s a Folder called the Mono .It has 20 in wheels and suspension near the hinge .

 

[Dhorl]

Yeah.. The Woosh Mono seem to be value-for-money buy. Will have to wait till July then.

Anyone know the price of Wisper Foldable 805fe and 806 alpino. It looks good.
