FOCUS e-bike test compact bikes

[vc_row] [vc_column] [vc_column_text]Test: Compact bikes, the new trend: simply fold up the handlebar stem - and simply pack away the whole bike. As a result, the bike takes up little space during transport or when "parking" in the apartment. The special highlight: Thanks to the highly adjustable handlebar and seat height, compact bikes fit almost any body size. So the son can cycle to school in the morning, the daughter to the ballet in the afternoon and the father to the tennis court in the evening. Or to the pub.

Weight Weight is more important than in all other categories! If you want to transport your e-bike by car or train, you should definitely pay attention to this: it gets exhausting at over 20 kilograms. However, not only the number on the scale is decisive, but also the carrying geometry. So can I use part of the frame as a carrying handle? The level of comfort is surprisingly high, and due to the small tire diameter, the compact bikes are sprint miracles at traffic lights.

Fast: Concerns that you are not going fast with it are unfounded: the circuits ensure the brisk translation. Derailleur gears are just as pointless on folding bikes as disc brakes. Tip: The lights should be attached at the front and rear so that they cannot be damaged when stowed away.
