JOBOBIKE Ace at GOfatbike
The JOBOBIKE Ace is a compact, foldable electric bike designed for the city and for those who want to save space on the go. The battery is cleverly integrated into the seat tube, the drive runs via a quiet carbon belt instead of a chain, and the frame has a low step-through design. Below, we’ll walk through what the Ace can do, how convenient it is to carry, and what to consider before choosing it. The quiet drive and low frame make it comfortable for short, busy city rides.
Compact and foldable
The foldable frame is the foundation of the Ace. You fold the bike into a package that you can easily take in the elevator, put in a trunk, or place in a corner of the hallway. The 20-inch wheels keep it manageable without you having to lean low over the handlebars. The 6061 aluminum frame with a low step-through makes mounting simple, even with a bag or coat on. It fits well for riders from about 155 cm tall. Convenient for those with limited storage space or who want to occasionally combine the bike with train or car travel.
Range and battery
The battery is hidden in the seat tube and provides a decent range for city rides. How far you get depends on your weight, the wind, the chosen support level, and how often you accelerate at stoplights. So, expect a margin rather than a fixed number. There’s enough reserve for daily city rounds and longer weekend rides. The carbon belt also requires little maintenance, so you spend less time cleaning and lubricating compared to a bike with a chain.
Motor, speed, and regulations
The rear hub houses a 250W motor with 45 Nm torque. A torque sensor measures your pedaling force and adjusts the assistance so that pedaling feels natural. The support runs up to 25 km/h, you always pedal yourself, and there is no throttle. This means the Ace counts as a regular electric bike, without a license, registration, or helmet requirement. We advise against tuning it up: the bike then falls outside this category, the brakes and frame aren’t built for it, and your warranty will be voided. For city use, the standard support is more than enough.
Tires, brakes, and riding feel
The puncture-proof Kenda 20-inch tires provide grip on the street and make the bike agile in heavy traffic. At the front, there is a hydraulic suspension fork with lock-out, so you can lock the suspension when riding on smooth asphalt. You brake with hydraulic GEMMA disc brakes, which also perform well in wet conditions. On the color display with Bluetooth, you can see your speed and battery level, and via the app, you can adjust settings. The small wheels make the Ace steer instantly, which takes some getting used to if you come from a large city bike.
Who is this folding bike for
The Ace is suitable for commuters, students, or anyone with limited space at home. You fold it up and put it away, and the silent belt drive keeps your clothes and hands clean. To be honest: a compact folding bike with 20-inch wheels rides differently than a large city bike, so for long rides on rough roads, this is not the most comfortable choice. If you want something small, clean, and handy for short to medium rides, the Ace is made exactly for that. For those who often take the bike indoors, the foldable size saves a lot of hassle in the hallway or elevator.
