Marc Electric reviews the Cyrusher Loop 2, a revisited budget-friendly folding electric bike [00:11].
Key Specifications & Features:
Equipped with 20 x 3-inch tires, which offer great multi-modal and urban performance [00:26].
Features a 250W motor (capped at 25 km/h), a 48V 10.4Ah battery, and a cadence sensor rather than a torque sensor [00:47], [01:39].
Includes mechanical disc brakes, a 7-speed Shimano Tourney transmission, front suspension, and a suspension seatpost [01:15], [01:27].
Foldable at the central axis, stem, and pedals, making it easy to store in a car, SUV, or camper [00:39], [08:03].
Testing & Riding Experience:
During a nearly 47 km test ride, the battery performed well, though the reviewer noted it’s better suited for shorter distances or city commuting rather than very long trips [04:36], [09:24].
The wide tires handle various post-rain terrains (such as wet asphalt and packed paths) securely, and the fenders are very effective [03:08], [03:55].
Pros and Cons:
Pros: Compact size, easy folding mechanism, protective frame bar underneath to prevent chainring damage, and great maneuverability for a secondary or vacation bike [13:23], [14:42].
Cons: The suspension seatpost bottoms out too easily, mechanical brakes require more stopping distance in the wet, turn signals are hard to see in daylight, and the cadence sensor setup could be improved [11:32], [12:18].
Conclusion: The reviewer considers it a convenient, entry-level secondary or vacation bike (priced around €799 before discounts), ideal for anyone needing a compact portable ride, though not suited as a heavy-duty primary commuter [14:42], [14:51].
