![]() You don’t get disc brakes (the V-brakes aren’t bad, though) and at 49.8 pounds, it’s still a handful to fold and carry up the stairs. The Vika+ is designed to do all this while still being affordable, and as such, there are compromises. The 11 amp-hour battery delivers 35 miles of range in the second of four e-assist modes, and a throttle orders up on-demand blasts of oomph. ![]() The Vika+ goes, folds, and stows well, thanks to a 350-watt electric motor located in the rear hub and folding mechanisms in the down tube and stem. What California bike company Blix set out to do with the Vika+ is ambitious: Build a not-too-expensive, not-too-heavy folding e-bike that enriches your life by inserting a bike into your previously non-bike transportation regime. The right bike for: Commuting, errand-running, drag racing cyclists who don’t have a throttle Battery life: Up to 35 miles (in real-world conditions)
