Should you buy one?
If you want a folding fat tire e-bike that can carry a passenger and still fit in a sedan, the Rattan LF 750 Pro is a fair deal. It was really comfortable for me at 6’1”, the fat tires handled snow and dirt beautifully, and I got 27 miles on a charge riding throttle only by myself. The rear seat has a backrest, and my kids said it was really comfortable.
There are a few design issues. The rear seat is snug for an adult my size, the battery key has to stay in while you ride, and I noticed significant power loss when the battery got low.
Buying note: as of Oct 22, 2026, the LF 750 Pro product page on Rattan’s US site no longer loads, and I couldn’t find the LF 750 Pro in Rattan’s US store. Rattan now sells the LF Ultra at $1,399, which I haven’t tested. My link below goes to Amazon.

Controls
The LF 750 Pro has the kind of hand grips I really like. That extra fin makes it so much more comfortable to ride and gives you a place to rest your hand.
On the left you have the front brake and the controls. You can go up to pedal assist level 5, and the center display shows your power and other info. Hold the up button to turn on the front headlight. The headlight and rear tail light are integrated, so other vehicles can see you from both ends.
On the right you have the half twist throttle, the gear shifter and the rear brake. The twist throttle gives you power from zero, which I like to see. Keep in mind it only works when you’re in a pedal assist mode.
Folding and the passenger seat
This is a folding e-bike. The handlebars fold down, and the frame folds in the middle. Folded, it fits in a sedan and becomes a tight, compact package.
It’s also designed to carry a rear passenger. The battery sits parallel with the seat post, which I like. The key is a little annoying, though. You have to turn the key on to ride, and it only comes out in the off position, so the key stays in the battery the whole time you ride.
Room for the passenger
The kickstand is way back, which is good with a passenger. The pedal doesn’t hit the kickstand, but it comes within about three and a half to four inches of the footrest for the rear rider. If I were designing this bike, I’d add about three inches to the length, so you’re more comfortable pedaling while your passenger has their feet on the footrests.
I’m about 6’1” and 200 pounds, and I can fit on the back, but it’s snug. It’s designed for a smaller passenger, and for a child or a small adult it’s sufficient. With me leaning back it got a little imbalanced. Sitting back there, I almost felt like I could reach the handlebars and pedal it myself, chopper style. This is nitpicking. In my video I said it folds to fit in a sedan, and that perhaps that’s why they didn’t stretch out the frame any longer (4:22-4:31).
Comfort for both riders
The seat post has a shock absorber, and it worked really well over bumps. The rear passenger gets a backrest but no shock absorber. I had a couple of kids ride back there, and they said it was really comfortable.
How it rides
It was really comfortable. The riding position was exactly what I was looking for at 6’1”, and you can adjust the handlebars if you’re smaller or bigger than me.
There was a little snow on the trail when I filmed, and the bike performed beautifully. The Meteor fat tires handled really well, which tells me it’ll do well in snow, dirt and other off-road conditions. I’m glad Rattan included both the front fork suspension and the suspension seat post.
Motor, battery and range
The LF 750 Pro has a 750W rear hub motor and a 48V 13Ah battery. Rattan rates it for up to 300 pounds, which I found impressive for a bike this size.
What I measured on camera: 27 miles on one charge, riding solo (video, 7:40).
For my range test, I rode by myself on a full battery, with no passenger, using throttle only. I got 27 miles on a charge, which I found really impressive. Rattan said 30 to 45 miles at the time, but I test throttle only, which usually gets less range than pedal assist.
One thing to keep in mind: when the battery got low, I noticed a significant power loss.
Rattan also lists piston brakes, alloy wheels and three colors.
What the specs mean on the road
750W rated, 1,500W peak. That’s a lot of power for a folding bike this size.
48V 13Ah, about 624Wh. My 27 throttle-only miles are about 23 watt-hours per mile. Rattan’s 55 miles assumes pedal assist, where your legs share the work.
Power loss at low battery. I noticed significant power loss when the battery got low, so plan longer rides with charge to spare.
20 x 4.0 tires. Small wheels keep the folded package compact. They handled snow and dirt well for me.
28 mph on pedal assist. That’s Class 3 speed, not Class 2, so check your local rules.
300 lb max load. That has to cover you, your passenger and any bag. At my 200 pounds, that leaves about 100 pounds for a passenger and cargo, which fits a child or a small adult, the passenger this bike is designed for.
64 lbs plus a 9.2 lb battery. At over 70 pounds with the battery in, it’s heavy to lift even folded. Pull the battery before you lift it into a sedan.
2A charger, 6-7 hours. Plan on charging overnight.

The LF 750 Pro weight is Rattan’s EU figure without the 9.2 lb battery. Rival figures come from my Engwe EP-2 Pro review and Gyroor C5 Max review.
- Engwe EP-2 Pro: another folding fat tire bike, with a higher rated range.
- Gyroor C5 Max: a smaller, slower folding fat tire bike.
- Mod Easy Sidecar: a different way to bring a passenger along.
Who it’s for
- Parents who want to carry a child on the back.
- Riders with limited space who need a bike that folds into a sedan.
- Commuters who need last mile transport; add a simple bag on the back and it works.
- Riders who want off-road ability in snow and dirt.
Who should look elsewhere
- Two adults riding together. The back is snug for someone my size.
- Anyone who wants to remove the key while riding.
- Buyers who want to order from Rattan directly. The LF 750 Pro page on Rattan’s US site no longer loads.

Price
The LF 750 Pro sold for $1,249 on Rattan’s website when I filmed in March 2023, and I felt that was a fair price for the specs and the passenger seat. As of Oct 22, 2026, its product page on Rattan’s US site no longer loads, and Rattan’s US store lists the LF Ultra at $1,399 (compare-at $1,999) instead. The Amazon listing from my video description no longer exists (checked Oct 26, 2026). See my list of the best e-bikes under $2,000.
