Ride1UP Core-5 Review – 2021

Ride1UP-Core-5-review-electricbikereport

I’m a sucker for sleek, stealthy bikes. I’ve always appreciated the subtle details that can add up into one bike. The Core-5 is just that, as everything from the sharp angles on the top tube to the low profile battery integration on the downtube screams sophistication. I couldn’t wait to see if the performance matched its looks.

The Ride1UP Core-5 review was an instance of not knowing what to expect when it comes to performance. While it may look nice, it’s what’s on the inside that counts and I was ready to put the Core-5 through the ringer to see how high performance of an e-bike it truly was.

When I heard that we were reviewing the RadMini 4 I wondered if I was going to be able to tell the difference between its performance versus other foldable fat tire e-bikes.

I asked myself, “How much can the performance of a foldable fat tire e-bike really vary from one brand to another?” And I soon realized that they can vary in performance and experience quite a bit more than I was initially anticipating.
