Ridstar H20Pro

What the Ridstar H20Pro is built for

The Ridstar H20Pro is a folding e-bike that packs down to fit a car boot, an apartment or a train.

It has a 2 kW motor and a top speed of 31 mph (50 km/h).

It carries a 1,104 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 70 miles (113 km) on a charge. Real-world range is usually lower than the rated figure: it falls with throttle use, hills, cold weather, rider weight and higher assist levels.

The Ridstar H20Pro carries up to 331 lb (150 kg) including the rider and has full suspension.

In the United States the Ridstar H20Pro sells for $1,318, above the median of $800 across 24 folding e-bikes with a US price, among the premium models. That is $1 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Ridstar H20Pro may be ridden

In the European Union and the United Kingdom an e-bike counts as a bicycle only within the pedelec limits; as specified, its 2 kW motor is above the 250 W limit and its 31 mph (50 km/h) top speed is above the 25 km/h at which assistance must stop. A model above those limits is treated as a moped there, with type approval, registration and insurance, unless the brand sells a version set to the European limits.

Ridstar H20Pro safety certification

The brand's listing for the Ridstar H20Pro does not state a UL 2849 or EN 15194 certification. New York City allows only e-bikes certified to UL 2849 to be sold or rented there, and California requires certified batteries from 2026; ask the seller for the certificate before buying.
