The multiple award-winning Honbike is just about as steep of a departure from typical electric bicycles as I can find. Having tested hundreds of different e-bikes, the Honbike is unique in so many different ways that it marks a refreshing new entry to the market. 

The new HONBIKE 20″ folding commuter e-bike looks a bit like a concept bike. It has no externally visible drivetrain, motor or battery, plus sleek integrated lighting, a flush integrated computer display, and one-sided rear swingarm and matching fork.

HONBIKE’s new award-winning electric folding bike, the HONBIKE E-BIKE, solves several of these problems in one go: its lightweight frame is easy to ride or carry, and the bike is powered by a rechargeable 250W motor. 

The Honbike E-bike is a new folding electric bike that gets rid of one of cycling's biggest annoyances: the chain. Honbike hasn't just replaced it with a belt drive, either; instead, the e-bike has a fully enclosed drive shaft that means no risk of slipping or jumping, and practically no maintenance.

The Honbike Uni4 is built around an eye-catching minimalist frame comprising just three 7,000-series aluminum tubes angled for mid-step accessibility to riders between 5.25 and 6.2 ft (1.6 - 1.9 m) in height – who adopt a comfortable upright riding stance. 

Every detail counts on the Honbike Uni4 and the e-Bike specialists have applied through exel design on the front fork, which removes the risk of a wheel falling out, combined with one-piece TRU magnesium wheel design ensures solid shock-absorption performance, even on trails.

The Honbike HF01 eBike is an interesting bike. It’s lightweight, has a super unique design, and is even foldable. But it gets even more unique as you examine it closer: it doesn’t have a traditional bike chain. 

You can’t get it wrong with Honbike ebikes. They are affordable, powerful, lightweight, and easy to use. Plus, Honbike electric bikes are super easy to carry around. This is because their tubes are not as bulky as other electric bikes.  

For this brand, it's all about the journey and making it as stress-free as possible. That means equipping its e-bikes with everything you need and nothing you don't. 

In terms of design, the Honbike Uni4 might well be the ultimate commuter e-bike. It has a sleek minimalist design, tonnes of handy features, weights just 20kg (44lb) and have a mammoth range of up to 100km (62 miles)

Im Praxistest macht das Honbike auf Anhieb einen soliden Eindruck. Es beschleunigt angenehm und verzichtet bei jeglichem Umschalten zwischen den Unterstützungsstufen auf sprunghafte Schübe durch seinen Hinterradnabenmotor.

Das Honbike U4 gehört definitiv zu den E-Bikes, die man so nicht an jeder Ecke findet. Das Design ist puristisch-elegant, ohne jedoch effekthascherisch zu sein.
