Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual

What the Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual is built for

The Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual is a folding e-bike that packs down to fit a car boot, an apartment or a train.

It has a 1,000 W (2 kW peak) motor, 95 Nm of torque and a top speed of 12 mph (20 km/h).

It carries a 960 Wh battery and a stated range of up to 81 miles (130 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 Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual carries up to 399 lb (181 kg) including the rider, has front suspension and is rated IP54 against water.

In the United States the Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual sells for $1,999, above the median of $800 across 24 folding e-bikes with a US price, among the premium models. That is $2 per watt-hour of battery.

Where the Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual 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 1,000 W motor is above the 250 W limit and its throttle moves it without pedalling, which the pedelec rules allow only as start-up help at walking pace. 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.

Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual safety certification

The brand's listing for the Lankeleisi X2000 MAX Dual 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.
