    Help! Looking for folding ebike, a bit worried about power and hill climbing

    Thanks, I guess I meant more in terms of the key specifications. The posters above described good experiences with their specific builds, just wondering whether those are by default 'stronger' than the typical factory made ones? Yes, test riding is going to be very tricky. Would it be worth...

    Hello pedelecs people, I currently have a Cube touring ebike, with a Bosch mid drive motor. There are lots of things I love about it, but I am unable to fit it in my car or even most trains, so it really limits the use I get out of it. I originally bought it for commuting, but my circumstances...
