When space becomes a luxury

In the city, space is not a comfort, but a harsh reality.
A normal e-bike needs:

• a basement or bicycle storage room

• wide corridors

• Square in the courtyard

• or a balcony (if you're lucky)

For many, that's simply not an option . And that's precisely why so many are looking for a solution that enables mobility without sacrificing living space .

Can I store a folding bike in my apartment?

In short: Yes – that's exactly what it's made for.

A folding bike can be folded down to a compact size. Instead of a bulky bicycle format, you get a package that:

• can stand in the hallway

• next to the sofa

• disappears under a table or desk

• or stands inconspicuously in a corner

👉 No dirt in the stairwell, no risk of theft outside, no stress.

Typical scenario: A normal apartment hallway is often 1–1.2 meters wide. A folded folding bike fits in here without any problems – without you having to step over it every time.

Will a folding bike fit in the elevator?

For many, this is a crucial point – especially in apartment buildings.

The answer: In the vast majority of cases, yes.

A normal e-bike is:

• long

• difficult

• unwieldy

A folding bike, on the other hand:

• significantly shorter

• often narrower

• easier to maneuver

👉 Even small elevators can usually be used without any problems – and you don't have to carry your bike up the stairs.

Especially for seniors or people who don't want to lug around a 25kg bike, this is a real game changer.

Can I put a folding bike under the table?

Yes – and that's exactly what makes it so suitable for apartments. Many folding bikes are approximately:

• 60–80 cm high

• 70–90 cm long

That means:

• under the dining table

• under a stable desk

• next to a sideboard

👉 Your bicycle becomes part of the apartment , not its biggest obstacle.

Comparison: Regular e-bike vs. folding bike

🚲 Standard e-bike

• requires a lot of floor space

• Usually only possible in the basement or outdoors.

• difficult in the elevator

• high risk of theft

• rarely suitable for residential use

🚴 Folding bike / Folding e-bike

• perfect for small apartments

• Fits in hallway, room or storage alcove

• elevator-compatible

• safely stored in the apartment

• ideal for city & everyday life

In short: If space is your limiting factor, the folding bike wins hands down.

Perfect for small apartments – and for your everyday life

A folding bike is not a last resort. It's a conscious decision for flexibility .

• Living without bicycle chaos

• Stay mobile without sacrificing space

• Suitable for everyday use without compromise

Especially in the city, it becomes clear: the biggest bike is not the best – but the one that fits your life.
