Algupära
The Rob Fold entered the Hercules lineup around 2016 as the brand's answer to urban commuters who need to fold a bike onto public transport. Unlike ultralight folders (Brompton, Tern), the Rob Fold prioritises ride comfort and a Bosch mid-motor over minimal pack size — it folds once at the main tube and is sized for riders used to full-size bikes. The 2024 lineup spans Bosch Active Line to Performance Line, with the Rob Fold 10 at the top.

Verdikt
+Tugevused
- Bosch Performance Line on Rob Fold 10 delivers full-size trekking motor performance in a compact package
- Hydraulic disc brakes (Shimano MT200) on all trims — unusual at this price point for folders
- Dropper seatpost on Fold 10 makes daily saddle-height adjustment effortless for multi-user households
−Nõrkused
- At 25 kg, heavier than most folding e-bikes — requires a sturdy bike bag or careful manoeuvring on trains
- Rack-mounted PowerPack battery (not frame-integrated) affects weight distribution compared to tube-integrated designs
- Only one fold point: larger packed size than Brompton-style multi-fold designs
