Comparison winner: MYVELO Molinar

The Molinar emerged as the most versatile all-round folding bike in the comparison. The following models were particularly impressive in the test:

Strong all-round performance

The Molinar combines off-road capabilities with everyday usability:

The 250 W Bafang motor with 80 Nm of torque provides powerful support, whether in city traffic or on steeper paths.
The 672 Wh battery (48 V Li-Ion, 14 Ah) provides a range of around 70 km - ideal for commuters , weekend trips or camping trips.
20" fat tires offer excellent grip on various surfaces.

In addition, it features high-quality components such as hydraulic disc brakes, Shimano gears and a robust folding design that is suitable for transport in cars as well as public transport.

An overview of the competition

Here is a brief overview of the other candidates in comparison:

Fafreese F20 Pro

A solid e-folding bike with a powerful 250W motor and large battery (up to ~150 km range according to the manufacturer).
👉 Advantage: enormous range.
👉 Disadvantage: Folding mechanism and handling less sophisticated - according to critics, somewhat heavier to transport.

Vakole CO26

A more affordable folding bike with solid features – but overall less powerful than the top models in terms of torque and robust off-road handling.

Mokwheel Basalt St 2.0

Another all-rounder with a robust frame, but a less well-known brand, and therefore often weaker service support and less testing experience.

Himiway C5 Ultra

More focused on comfort, but not quite on par with the Molinar in comparison, especially in mixed off-road and everyday use.
