Is it for you?
Best suited to
Caravanners, boat owners and apartment dwellers who want a fat tyre bike that folds into a car boot, with a big battery for long days.
Standout strength
A 1008Wh battery and hydraulic disc brakes on a folding fat bike, plus a NSW certificate number published by Leon Cycle.
The main compromise
Heavy at 34kg, and Leon Cycle's price was $500 above PedL's when checked.
Consider something else if
You need to lift it often. At 34kg it folds, but it is not light. The NCM Paris+ is a slimmer folding option.
Check before you buy
Compare the Leon Cycle and PedL prices, and check the folded size of 90 x 50 x 70cm against your boot.
