Worked out with an absolute anchor Editorial judgement
* The manufacturer does not publish a reliable folded measurement for this model, so space efficiency is worked out from what we do know: how compact it is open and what it weighs. How we score.

The analysis
At 14.3 kg this bike weighs less than a flat-pack bookshelf, yet it is rated to carry a rider up to 120 kg, nearly nine times its own weight, on an alloy steel frame that also forms the handlebars.
The frame folds in half for storage, but the only dimensions published are standing up: 40.5 x 65.5 x 110 cm. No folded width, depth or height are given anywhere in the listing. We won't guess at what folding in half actually gets you back in a hallway or under a bed; that figure simply isn't there, and we'd rather leave it unsaid than invent it.
Resistance runs across 8 friction levels on a belt drive, tracked on a battery-powered LCD display, and the saddle height adjusts between 110 and 130 cm to fit different riders. It arrives requiring assembly, and the seller does not state how long that assembly takes.
In favour
- Rated for riders up to 120 kg on an alloy steel frame
- 8 levels of friction resistance with an LCD display to track sessions
- Weighs 14.3 kg, light enough to move or stand against a wall
Against
- Folded width, depth and height are not published, only the standing dimensions
- Assembly is required, with no stated assembly time
Best for: Someone who needs a bike that folds away between sessions and cares more about what it holds than exactly how small it closes.
