Super-light, folding carbon e-bike from FuroSystems
The FuroSystems Furo X is incredibly lightweight thanks to its carbon fibre frame. Here we have a folding electric bike that doesn't weigh much more than a regular folder. It features an excellent Bafang 250w hub motor and choices of 313Wh and 378Wh batteries. There's also hydraulic disc brakes and Shimano 9-speed gearing. The Furo X would be the perfect choice for commuters and leisure riders who're looking for a lightweight e-bike that can be easily transported. I'll be visiting my local Furo X dealer in the near future for a full test and review.
