Foldable electric bikes have become all the rage amongst micromobility aficionados, but up until now, most of the e-bikes launched have been easy to store, but difficult to travel with.
Tern came up with the ultra-compact electric bike, and the best part is – it folds down to a carry-on size – perfect for multiple commutes! Read all about its specs, facts and expert reviews below.
Overall, the Tern BYB electric bike seems to perform well and may just be one of the best foldable e-bikes on the market. It checks off all the boxes for a reliable commute.
The 8 speed gears could prove complicated if you’re a beginner rider, and the higher seatpost can be an annoyance for some, so keep those qualities in mind before deciding!
"The BYB range undoubtedly takes 20” folding bike design to a new level of compactness and portability."
"The Tern handles quickly without being twitchy, and with the solidity of its chassis you have a decent mixed-mode commuter bike. It is expensive, but it has broader gearing and superior handling and is easier to ride over longer distances."
"I purchased the Tern BYB for two reasons. The first being that it packs down to a small, compact setup with no tools required, in an airport-style suitcase, and is super simple to work. The second reason I picked up the BYB is that it fits all the adults in my family."
