HomeTechReview: Ride1Up's Portola is a budget-friendly, foldable e-bike

It’s not easy to find a good portable, foldable e-bike. Most of the time, you only get two of those three. But Ride1Up’s Portola e-bike tries to do all three, and it does it pretty well for under $1,000. The Portola has everything you could want in a portable, foldable e-bike, plus the potential to do more for a higher price. But it does have its limitations. At 59 lbs and only folding in half, it’s not easy for one person to maneuver unless they’re moderately strong.

Ride1Up Portola electric bike review – budget or best folding e-bike?

Low price: Starting at $995, this is a good price for an e-bike of this quality.

Power: The 750W motor delivers powerful torque.

Comfort: The seat is well padded and the upright position makes for a comfortable ride.
