MiRiDER 20

MiRiDER 20

The MiRiDER 20 is a UK-assembled 20-inch folding e-bike for commuters, leisure riders and motorhome owners who want a more stable ride than a 16-inch folder and a simple single-speed setup.

  • 20-inch wheels and longer wheelbase: A smoother, more stable ride than the 16-inch folder on rougher roads and longer trips
  • Magnesium alloy folding frame: Compact storage in a hallway, car boot or motorhome
  • Silent 250W rear hub motor, 45Nm: Five levels of assistance without a noisy motor
  • Integrated adjustable rear suspension elastomer: Softens lumpy city streets
  • Single-speed KMC anti-rust chain: A simple drivetrain that copes with wet riding
  • Removable, lockable 252Wh Samsung battery: Up to 45 miles (72 km) maximum in power level 1, charged in 2-3 hours

Bikesy's Verdict

The MiRiDER 20 is worth shortlisting and comparing current offers if you want a UK-assembled 20-inch folding e-bike that stores like a folder and rides with more stability than a 16-inch model. Larger wheels, the magnesium frame and the rear elastomer suspension make everyday streets and longer leisure rides more comfortable, while the silent 250W hub motor and single-speed KMC chain keep the bike easy to live with. Leave it if your hills are steep enough that you want gears, or if you often carry a bike on stairs or crowded trains: at a claimed 20 kg it is practical for a boot or motorhome, but heavier to lift than the MiRiDER 16.

Pros

  • More stable than a 16-inch folding e-bike on rougher roads
  • Simple single-speed drivetrain with a KMC anti-rust chain
  • Folds to 920 x 520 x 720 mm for a boot or motorhome
  • Silent hub motor with five assistance levels
  • Adjustable rear elastomer suspension for lumpy streets

Cons

  • More physical effort on steep hills than a geared bike
  • Heavier to lift than the 17.3 kg MiRiDER 16, at a claimed 20 kg

The MiRiDER 20 is a UK-assembled folding e-bike with 20-inch wheels. It's for commuting, leisure riding and everyday trips when you still need to hide the bike in a hallway, car boot or motorhome. This standard version uses a magnesium alloy folding frame, a silent rear hub motor and a single-speed KMC anti-rust chain, so there's less to keep clean after a wet week.

Compared with the smaller MiRiDER 16, it has larger 20-inch wheels and a slightly longer wheelbase. That gives a smoother, more stable ride on rougher roads or longer journeys, and you still get a compact folding magnesium frame. In the range it sits above the 16-inch model and below the full-size 24-inch platform.

Comfort and braking

An integrated adjustable rear suspension elastomer takes the edge off lumpy streets. Tyres are MiR-T Original Road 20 x 2.125", with a delta guard and puncture fluid. Clarks HD-M3000 160mm 2-piston hydraulic discs do the stopping, with electric motor cut-outs so the hub motor cuts when you brake.

Single-speed drivetrain

This is the standard single-speed MiRiDER 20. The GB3 geared belt-drive and the Hope 20 are separate models with different drivetrains. Here the bike uses a KMC anti-rust chain, five levels of pedal assistance and a MiRiDER geared brushless silent rear hub motor (250W, 45Nm) to help on hills, so you're not looking after a derailleur.

Steeper climbs will still ask more of your legs than a geared folder would, because there's no lower gear to drop into.

Range, weight and storage

The removable, lockable battery is Samsung 18650 Lithium-Ion cells, 36V 7Ah / 252Wh. Maximum range is up to 45 miles (72 km), based on power level 1, average pace, rider weight and even terrain. A charge takes 2-3 hours.

Fully equipped weight is a claimed 20 kg, and it folds to 920 x 520 x 720 mm, which works in a car boot or motorhome. It's slightly heavier to lift than the 17.3 kg MiRiDER 16, so if you often carry a bike onto busy public transport, that extra weight is noticeable.

One size covers 152-195 cm, with an adjustable handlebar rake and folding stem, and a maximum recommended rider weight of 120 kg. The MiRiDER 20 is not part of the 2025 MiRiDER 24 stem recall.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Clarks HD-M3000 hydraulic discs: 160mm 2-piston stopping with motor cut-outs, so the hub cuts when you brake
  • MiR-T Original Road tyres: 20 x 2.125" with delta guard and puncture fluid for ordinary street miles
  • Adjustable handlebar rake and folding stem: One size is published for riders from 152 to 195 cm
