KBO Flip E-Bike is Foldable
If you need to make good use of a small space then the KBO Flip E-Bike is for you.  It will take less space than other e-bikes.   Compared to other foldable e-bikes this is the easiest to fold and unfold.

 

KBO Flip E-Bike is Transportable
If you don’t own a truck or a vehicle with the right type of bike rack, the only place you’ll be riding your e-bike is around the neighborhood.  If you own a foldable e-bike like the KBO Flip then you can simply fold it up, stick it in your trunk and you’re on your way.

 

KBO Flip E-Bike is Affordable
The KBO Flip E-bike was already priced right at $1069.00 but now, at the time of this article you can save $270.00 because it’s marked down to $799.00.  This makes the KBO Flip E-bike the lowest priced e-bike that I’ve ever reviewed.   The Flip is also the second bike by KBO that I’ve reviewed.   The first was a cargo e-bike called the KBO Ranger.  Links to both of my video reviews for the KBO Flip and the KBO Ranger are down below.

KBO Flip E-Bike Video Review

 

KBO Ranger E-Bike Video Review

The Good
The KBO Flip selling for a very low price of $799.00 making this a very affordable e-bike.  Being foldable makes this also a very easy to store at home, work or practically anywhere.  It has front shocks which is a plus but they could be better.  It’s a cadence sensor e-bike making this a great bike for people that have problems pedaling or just don’t want to do a lot of pedaling.   Cadence sensor e-bikes down’t rely on how much effort you put into pedaling, they just go.

The Bad
The brakes work fine but could be better.  The motor is a continuous 750w brushless rear hub motor and for the most part it can handle everything just fine but, compared to other 750w motors that I’ve experienced, it feels a little underwhelming. The upside for the feel of the motor is that I think this would be excellent for a first time e-bike owner.  It will be a lot harder to lose control like some other 750w motors.

Overall
This is a great e-bike for people on a budget, little space or people that don’t like to do a lot of pedaling. Overall, it’s a decent e-bike with a low price that’s hard to beat.
