CARRERA CROSSCITY E FOLDING BIKE USED ONCE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION

The Carrera CrossCity E is a compact folding bike built for urban commuting, combining electric assistance with the practicality of a frame that folds down for storage and transport. This particular bike has barely been used—it's been ridden just once since purchase from a main dealer in July 2024—and remains in excellent condition throughout. It comes with the original charger and keys.

The frame is aluminium, which keeps weight reasonable for a folding e-bike, and the quick folding mechanism makes it straightforward to collapse for carrying onto trains, storing in a flat, or fitting in a car boot. Folded, it measures 93cm long, 40cm wide, and 74cm high, making it genuinely portable without being awkwardly proportioned. The 20-inch wheels with tubular tyres are typical for this class of bike, offering decent manoeuvrability in traffic while still holding momentum reasonably well on longer stretches.

Power comes from a Shengei 36V 250W rear hub motor system, which provides the kind of assistance that makes hills easier and takes the edge off stop-start city riding without overwhelming the experience. The 8-speed Shimano thumb shifter gives enough range for urban terrain without adding unnecessary complexity, and side-pull caliper brakes are straightforward and reliable for the pace of city commuting. The comfortable saddle is a practical detail that matters when you're doing this commute regularly.

This is the sort of bike that works well for anyone juggling cycling with public transport, or commuters who need to fold their bike away at the office or at home. The electric motor takes the sweat out of longer commutes or hills, whilst the compact fold means you're not wrestling with a full-size bike frame when you need to carry it.
