ebike that actually works for apartment commuting

Posted by clampbucket@reddit | ebikes | View on Reddit | 5 comments

I have been using the ride1up portola as my daily commuter electric bike for about 8 months now I do, six mile round trip, folds into my apartment without taking over the room, zero mechanical issues the whole time.

I am posting bc I saw that they have a clearance.

I’d rather just get something light like the tempo, roadster v3 or solterra.

I’ve been going back and forth on the lectric for two months and that price difference is hard to ignore, what made you go with this one over lectric originally?

clampbucket@reddit (OP)

honestly came down to price the gap was a distribution model difference and not a quality difference

How does it hold up on longer rides? I commute about 12 miles round trip and range is my main concern with the base version.

This works well for ground-floor apartments. Not so much for those living on upper floors.
