Ride1Up has some Father’s Day savings that are carrying over the e-bike deals we saw during its Memorial Day Sale, with the added bonus of select extra savings at up to $300 off when buying two models together. The most budget-friendly model amongst the bunch is the Portola Compact Folding e-bike that starts from $995 shipped for its 10.4Ah model, while the upgraded 13.4Ah model is down at $1,095 shipped. Going for $1,095 and $1,195 normally, it doesn’t often see price cuts, with most of the discounts we have spotted being these $100 markdowns, aside from the $200 markdown we last saw during Black Friday. You’re looking at the second-lowest price we have tracked, which will get an additional $100 in savings when two are bought together.

A well known option among the brand’s models, the Portola Folding e-bike brings budget-friendly pricing along with space-saving capabilities. As I previously mentioned, there are two battery configurations to choose from, with the standard 10.4Ah battery giving you up to a 40-mile travel range, while the 13.4Ah battery increases that to 45+ miles – achieving the best mileage when its PAS levels are activated. Speaking of the PAS, when its turned on you’ll gain assistance up to its max 28 MPH speeds, while using the throttle for pure-electric riding only reaches 20 MPH.

There’s plenty of solid features here for the low prices, with both models sporting 3-inch wide cross-country tires with fenders over each, a suspension travel fork, dual piston hydraulic brakes, Shimano Altus 8-speed derailleur, front and rear LED lights (with brake lighting), an integrated rear cargo rack (which is compatible with the brand’s passenger kit), the folding frame, and a 2.2-inch LCD display for setting adjustments and real-time performance data. You can learn more in our hands-on review at Electrek.
