Is it for you?
We have not ridden this bike. This read is based on the spec sheet and Australian seller information, not a test ride.
Best suited to
Train commuters and apartment dwellers who need something that folds down and fits in a boot.
Standout strength
Cheapest way into a current Pedal e-bike and it actually folds, unlike the rest of the range.
The main compromise
20 inch wheels and rim brakes mean it rides smaller and stops slower than the disc-equipped bikes here, and Pedal does not publish a range figure for it.

What is the range of the Pedal Dynamo 3?
The Pedal Dynamo 3 has a claimed range of about 30 km from its 280Wh battery. Real-world range is usually lower than the claim, since it depends on assist level, rider weight, terrain and wind.

The Pedal Dynamo 3 uses a Shengyi motor, in a rear hub position, producing 32Nm of torque.
How much does the Pedal Dynamo 3 weigh?
The Pedal Dynamo 3 weighs about 23 kg. That matters if you need to lift it onto a car rack, carry it up stairs, or store it, since e-bikes are heavier than regular bikes because of the motor and battery.
Who sells and backs the Pedal Dynamo 3 in Australia?
The Pedal range is distributed in Australia by Pedal Bikes (Brisbane). Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
