'Wallke,' the Guangzhou-based electric bicycle manufacturer, recently announced the 'Wallke H6' high-performance foldable. This bike boasts a 750w continuous output brushless motor with a peak output of 1,400w, combined with a 1,680 Wh, 48-volt battery pack. These components team up to deliver 170 miles of range and a [top speed of 32 mph](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dahon-kfeather), meaning even at top speed this bike delivers upward of six hours of battery life on a single charge.

These tough components come at the cost of portability, though, as the Wallke H6 weighs 90 pounds without counting any additional payload. This is rather heavy for a foldable, meaning riders will have a tough time carrying the bike up and down stairs when required.

The Wallke H6 is suited for on and off-road terrains with its [bulky tires](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fafrees-f20-pro), its LED headlights and tail lights, and its built-in LCD smart display. The bike is available now at an MSRP of $ 2,699 USD.
