    Can't believe this was in my feed the first thing! Love the 24-inch tires for a foldable e-bike but wished they included a torque sensor along with it for a higher price which I won't mind. The Hovsco Hovbeta is still the king of folding e-bikes to me due to its powerful 750-watt motor combined with its torque sensor as a Class 3!

    Y'all are great at what you do, most ebike reviews I see don't tell you if you can unlock the top speed or not, and you guys actually ride these bikes the way I want to see them ridden: fast speed minimal pedaling and loads of fun!

    @@stacyjaye6350 I learned there's a special technique with the thumb throttle where you roll the edge of your thumb onto it rather than pressing down onto it like a button. Once I got the hang of that I found it's really fun to use in technical bits where the cadence sensor is cumbersome. It's also nice to pin it in class3+ mode and see the motor output peak at 1300w for a few seconds

    They also need to slap in a 48 volt 20 ah Samsung battery, upgrade to a bigger headlight and taillight and this bike will be the cream of the crop with its 24 inch wheels. I think they should change the name of the whole company to Horizon and stop with these chinglish ebike brand names.

    It's probably just a pet peeve for you guys, but the fact that the display is showing off could take about 200 years to drain that battery. Battery would drain naturally over time significantly faster that the drain from that screen.

    We don't think it would be 200 years but it would be a slow drain. Just odd that it is draining power and lights can be turned on when it is off.

    @@freshlycharged Haha well its not an argument that I am going to wade into with a lot of intensity but I am wearing a digital watch right now and I haven't changed the battery since 2019, and I can assure you that bike's battery is quite a bit larger. It's nice to see a folding bike with larger wheels though. I have a VItilan folding bike and what a lot of reviewers don't mention is simply that a lot of people don't live in houses and have a garage they can put a bike into. I live in an apartment and need to be able to fold it up otherwise it sticks out of my closet.

    Limited edition plaque is there to mislead you into feeling like it's more valuable because it's more exclusive. At $1500, anyone who wants one will get one. If anything it's nice to know what number your bike was out the door and that's it.
