The ride seems comfortable and the handling assuredly stable (of course, low center of gravity anchored by the 8-1/2 pound battery!). I only rode it perhaps a hundred meters so these are impressions, not a definitive review. The cartridge-style Li-Ion battery is handy to remove for recharge and could conceivably lend itself to power other devices. The bike weighs less without the battery but the hub motor and sturdy construction means its still a hefty folder.

An electric folder is not intended to compete with a Brompton, Tikit, Swift or any other folder. It is not as elegant, compact, lightweight or easily folded. It instead offers the convenience of electric-assist to those interested having that feature combined with a relatively compact, transportable bike form.
