Hello. I am looking to purchase a folding Ebike. I am informed I need to pay above £1000.00. Does anybody have any suggestions which one to purchase and which is the best value.

Thank you for your help.

What are your needs for a folding bike? Do you need to take it on trains or is it just to put in the boot of the car or for reduced storage? This will impact on your choice. Availability of folding ebikes is much more restricted with limited choice. For really small folds suitable for the tube you need something like the Brompton which is great (imho) but will cost over £2k. If just for carrying in your car there are more options at a variety of price points. You could do worse than have a look at a relatively cheap option from Woosh as in the post above.

Are there any photos of the Rambletta folded? I can't see any on the Woosh site.
I took a couple of photos for you:

Thanks very much for the pics and also putting them on the website hopefully that also be helpful for others too. I am just in the early stage at thinking about getting an e bike.
The pros and cons of folded and non folding are probably similar to non E and I had a second hand Brompton for that experience.
Though I don't really need the folding for commuting or a car holiday (as I don't drive) it was really for the possible extra of security of keeping it indoors at places when out. For shopping etc it is in my experience not so practical as carrying it around shops was not that great in addition to other stuff and an e bike will have greater weight to say a non E Brompton.
Came to cycling very late in life - late 40s - am now nearly 57 but for hillier roads of London for my part time local work trips and shopping, I am thinking of something to help with that and give a boost - for my budget from your stock ,l like the unfolded look of the Rambletta and would much prefer a stepthrough , the Crusa looks an alternative, but being in London, it is harder to try these out before as I have never ridden an ebike. I am riding a second hand Carrera Subway at the mo, but am also concerned for security when out and about if I invest in a more pricey e- bike.
