There is a market for folding bikes for people in apartments, people who go RV’ing, boating, or as interests me, people who want to see America on Amtrak. The weight limit for Amtrak for e bikes is 50 lbs. because of needing to lift the bike into the train. Taking the battery out would make this bike qualify. Exploring city bike trails via Amtrak city by city sounds like a good adventure.

Got 1. I’m 5.11 changed the seat post to a longer one. Ride’s great now. Amazon UPANBIKE seat post Alum Alloy Extra Long 17.7 (450mm) replacement seat post. The 31.6mm version fits the Portola.

This seems like the perfect bike for an older person that wants to get exercise. It will fit In any trunk and if you get an extra battery And pedal It,it would make for a great Day Out.

I recently purchased a Portola in Indigo Matte...once I removed one of the factory cable ties, the wiring harness folded without difficulty. The components of this bike are a cut above the Lectric (Shimano Altus 8-spd, Reention battery). And the more accessible battery is a HUGE improvement. The 750w motor is significantly more powerful than the Lectric 500w motor. Both are good bikes...just a matter of preference. I do intend to go with the DavidBrandNew Shorty BMX Bundle in the future...they are currently out of stock.

As a Lectric 3.0 owner, I'm looking forward to selling my current bike and moving over to this. I know many will think it's a lateral move and not an upgrade, but having had the 3.0 for over a year now, it's been one problem after another. Besides the well publicized brake recall and hydraulic brake upgrade, I've had quite a few little mechanical problems left and right, too many unnecessary squeaks and rattles, and trying to work on it (wheel removal for a tire change, etc) is a nightmare as it seems lectric tried to jam too much stuff into a little chassis to make it value packed. Give me something cleaner with good reliability and I'll be a happy camper.

Nice work . I use an electric scooter to get to work at my grocery store and loss pervention kept telling me I couldnt have it in the places I had it so finally got designated right outside of loss preventions office everyday. Been hit twice this year by vehicles not stopping before crossing over the sidewalk and entering on the roadway both times. The sensation basically like being shot out of a cannon when going over handlebars. Stay safe and keep up good work.

whats nice about lectric xp 3.0 is the bigger headlight they include free right now and the suspension seat post. the bad is it only has 55nm of torque 500w motor and the ride1up is definitely more torquey with a 750w motor. other than that they are very very similar. I like the paint and finish of the ride1up over the square frame of the traditional foldable ebike
