E-bikes are exploding in popularity—and with good reason. But if you’ve been holding off on getting one, you’re not alone. Many potential riders have concerns about cost, weight, safety, or practicality. And frankly, those concerns are valid—for most e-bikes.
But what if there were an e-bike designed to address the most common complaints right out of the gate? Meet the Zizzo E-Forte—a lightweight, foldable electric bike that delivers performance, portability, and peace of mind.
Here’s how it solves the top 5 reasons people say “No thanks” to e-bikes:
Reason 1 “E-bikes are too expensive.”
ZiZZO's Fix: Affordable performance—with a summer discount
Many e-bikes start at over $2,000. But the Zizzo E-Forte is priced at just $999.99—and right now, it’s even better. Get 25% off through August 2025 using code EFORTE25 at checkout.
That brings the price down to under $750 (before taxes)—making it one of the most budget-friendly e-bikes with throttle, pedal assist, and folding convenience on the market.
Plus, the E-Forte is what we call a convertible e-bike—if the electronics aren’t working or the battery runs low, you can ride it just like a regular bike. And you can even swap the rear wheel for a standard non-electric one if you want to go full manual. That’s not just affordable—it’s future proof.
Reason 2. “They’re way too heavy.”
ZiZZO's Fix: Just 43 pounds
A typical e-bike can weigh 60–75 plus lbs, which makes carrying or transporting them a workout in itself. The E-Forte? Just 43 pounds—making it one of the lightest e-bikes in its class. That means easier lifting, quicker maneuvering, and way less back strain.
Reason 3. “They’re hard to store or take places.”
Zizzo's Fix: Fold-and-go design
Storage is a common issue with bulky e-bikes. But the E-Forte folds down compactly in seconds. Whether you live in a small apartment, commute by train, or want to stash it in your trunk or RV—this bike goes where most e-bikes can’t. Fold it. Store it. Done.
Reason 4. “They’re targets for theft.”
ZiZZO's Fix: Keep it close
Most e-bikes need to be locked up outside, making them prime targets for theft. But because the E-Forte folds up and travels easily, you can bring it indoors—to the office, coffee shop, or even under your desk. No more wondering if it’ll still be there when you come back.
Reason 5. “I want to stay active—not rely on a motor.”
ZiZZO's Fix: You control the effort
E-bikes aren’t cheating—they’re a tool. With the E-Forte, you control how much assistance you use. Want a boost? Use the pedal assist. Want a workout? Turn it off and pedal on.
And here’s the best part: because the E-Forte is a convertible e-bike, it functions like a regular bike whenever you want it to. If you remove the battery or swap out the rear wheel, it rides like a traditional, human-powered machine—no motor needed.
So, whether you're commuting, cruising, or getting in shape, the E-Forte adapts to your ride. The Zizzo E-Forte isn’t just another e-bike. It’s the answer to all the reasons you thought an e-bike wasn’t for you. If you're on the fence, it's time to fold those doubts away—literally.
