The bike itself "might" weigh 35 lbs. but I seriously doubt it.

Note that there's an E-bike version that can be converted back to a regular bike. This bike along with motors and batteries weighs in somewhere between 64 lbs and 80 lbs depending upon the variant. TidalForce is a manufacturer which is licensed to use the Montague folding frame and then adapt it for electric drive using WaveCrest Adaptive Motor's system.

What's with those ugly wheels? They probably get out of true running over a pebble at 1mph.
