BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.

We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.

It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Bottom line

The Flyer Folding Cargo is a folding cargo e-bike with a 350W motor and integrated rear rack. Experts agree the modest power and single-speed gearing make climbing and riding without assistance a challenge. The battery capacity is also underwhelming. However, testers appreciate the child-friendly features, “zippy” performance on flat terrain, solid folding mechanism, and ample accessory options for hauling kids and cargo. Overall, experts agree the Flyer Folding Cargo serves its purpose well as a practical, portable e-bike for light cargo duties.

Foldable E-Bike for Easy Transport | Flyer Folding Cargo E-Bike Review

This doesn’t suit everybody’s needs… it’s more made for the utility of hauling kids or hauling cargo and also the fact that you can fold it up really nice and compactly.
