Here we compare three of our favourites - the Carbo Model X, ‪@TheGocycleChannel‬ G4 and ‪@bromptonbicycle‬ C Line Electric.

Carbo X, with battery for up to 65km. I also have a preference belt drive. 🚲⚡

Carbo X is the best.

awesome video. nice to see them discussed side by side. next video consider a walk around with all 3 in complete folded position so we can get a relative sense on the folded sizing. i am currently trying to decide between the gocycle and carbo model x. the gocycle seems cooler but the carbo has all standard parts so I know if something fails I can find a replacement years down the road. it's a tough decision. have you experience issues with frame damage with the carbos?

I like how the Brompton's folded footprint is so small, but the tires are small also... 20" is the recommended minimum tire size. I think the Carbo is the most practical of the three.

Come and try them out for yourself to see. All three of these bikes are designed with a specific solution in mind - velorution.com/test-ride

Brompton is the best.

20 is not the recommended tyre size. Saddles might get some regulation if you have a tender bottom hole. Brompton is the best deal and excellent resale value.

I'm not convinced by seat post batteries, time will tell if flexing when riding damages the battery, and they are smaller giving less range, wish Brompton would make a 20 inch model for rougher roads,the go cycle is great design, but that price tag is steep, mind you all 3 are expensive

forgot to compare the 3 folded!! All takes with the 3 "on stage" are open. Having them folded next to each other would've give so much clarity to the size and portability differences

But which one is best and why?

How well do the first two bikes ride when the battery is out of juice? I have the e-Brompton and what I like about it is that it mostly rides just like a normal Brompton when you are out of juice or just want to manage the battery on a long ride.

All of the ebikes in our video ride very similarly to a normal bike, so should you need to ride without powered assistance it shouldn't really be a concern

I've read the gocycle goes into "single gear" mode when it of battery. No idea if this affects only the totl models with automatic shifting tho
