Looking for a small, lightweight e-bike for exploring/zipping around towns that we boat to. From what I've read, traditional folding bikes are expensive ($2-$3K), heavy (40-ish#), don't fare well in a wet salty environment (chains derailleurs, etc.) and take up lots of space (yes they generally fold in half but then you have a large/wide/bulky/heavy thing to manage).
We test rode a Jack Rabbit which seems like a great solution - $999, weighing just 24#, stores to a very compact 45"x30"x7", has a 10 mile range (spare battery only $200), no pedals so no chain/derailleur, and it's a ton of fun.
Anyone have a Jack Rabbit that they love or hate? Other recommendations welcomed.
Thx -
Jim

JackRabbit OG - Lightweight & Compact Micro eBike, Black
Often imitated, but nothing beats the original. Loved by 15,000+ Jackos and awarded “best micro ebike” by top press. And not just because the OG is incredibly good looking.An ultra lightweight 24 lbs and super portable folding flat design means if you can dream it, you can take an OG there...
