Who should buy it
The F200 fits riders who value low price and low weight over performance. It is one of the cheapest and lightest folding e-bikes in the database. If your trips are short and your terrain is flat, it may be enough.
- You commute less than 21 km per day and can charge at work or home.
- You need to carry your bike up stairs or onto public transport.
- You want an affordable first e-bike without a big investment.
