Aipas F3 Adventurer Folding Ebike vs PVY Z20 PRO EVO Folding E-Bike

The Aipas F3 is the stronger pick for riders who want real power and off-road ability: 1500W, 100 Nm and full suspension put it well ahead of the PVY Z20 PRO EVO's 250W, 50 Nm and front-only fork. The PVY is the better city commuter: lighter at about 50 lbs versus 68 lbs, a torque sensor for natural pedaling, and a folding package that fits a car trunk. Both rate 4.8, but owners of both say real range falls well short of the advertised figures, and both draw complaints about assembly and manuals.

• Choose the Aipas F3 Adventurer if you want a fast, torquey folder for hills, trails and heavier riders, and you can handle a 68 lb bike.
• Choose the PVY Z20 PRO EVO if you mostly ride paved commutes, want a lighter folder with smooth torque-sensor assist, and don't need trail power.
