Yes a 20 inch wheels but it's got a impulse motor with 70 NMT so it's a breeze to ride.

Don't know about it but I know that you can't stand still in business.
A Kalkhoff Sahel had it 26months and done over 12000 miles on it and it fits in small space in my home.

Any bike is going to be a breeze with a motor. This Tuck bike won't be fun to ride given the wheel weight and tyres.
Someone will buy one and think it's the best thing since sliced bread 🤠

There is a point when people invent or 'improve' things that either don't need inventing or improving.

I had over ever seen one folder with 26 inch wheels so maybe they are trying to improve that I take my hat off to them for trying the country needs people like that.

S&S couplings on a frame make any bike a folder.

Not quite this country though.

On the one hand I agree that it's good to see someone try something new.
On the other - that's ridiculous.
I'm trying to work out what problems it thinks it's solving.
Clearly not size as there are loads of bikes that fold way smaller.
It's not going to be quicker to fold than almost anything I've seen yet. including any and all full size folders that I've seen.
It would have to be amazing to ride to worthy of contention. And while I've clearly not ridden it, I don't think it's going to be up there.
The Brompton has its problems but that wouldn't tempt me to even try it.

It also actually looks really short in the cockpit.
I can think of a range of full-size folders I'd rather buy.
