I'm after folding xl bike

[Pedrinho]

Hi guys,

I'd like to reach for your opinion regarding bike I'm after but first let me describe my criteria:

1. I'd like bike with as big battery as possible as I want to use it for other purpose (as described on another thread).
2. It has to be foldable as I want to store it on the front of my van and still be able to drive van around.
3. I want it to be as much versatile as possible in terms of actual riding hence I'm looking at the "XL" version

That's pretty much it. I've got 0 experience with electric bikes and never ride one. From the internet research I have selected this one http://www.halfords.com/cycling/bikes/electric-bikes/byocycle-chameleon-fdxl-folding-electric-bike . Any opinions, advices, recommendations? Thanks!

Go and test ride at least 5 bikes, 20 would be better. Test ride and test again. Then you will know what bike suits. A separate battery pack for the camper is also advisable. Cheaper and easy to replace.

The FDXL is an excellent bike!

Pedrinho, when you say the front of your van do you mean the footwell of the passenger seat? Get down to Kudos bicycles in Whitstable to look at the K16 and the Secret, both lightweight and compact bikes.

Hi, Ideally footwell but depends on requirements i can try to fit it across too. As long as it's not on the way of operating van. I've checked your suggestions online. Non of these is XL bike.

What do you mean by XL, extra large or cross country?
