Best in Class

In test after test, the Vektron is called the best folding e-bike on the market. With an updated frame, upgraded Bosch motors, and a wide ecosystem of accessories to help you carry your stuff, the Vektron will easily turn a lot of your car trips into bike trips.

Ready to Roll

Once you fold your Vektron, it’s easy to roll it around. The new frame design also lets you keep the bike in vertical position when folded, so stopping and going is easier than ever.

Rides Better

There are other folding electric bikes but none ride better. The Vektron is stiff and stable for a truly solid ride—even when fully loaded. Take a test ride and feel the difference.

It rides like a dream and unlike just about any folding bike I’ve ever tried.

Takes You Further

One Size Fits Most

The Vektron has a low-step frame design and resizes in seconds—no tools required—to fit riders between 147 and 195 cm (4’10” – 6’5”), so you can share the bike with anyone in your family.
