My verdict

Overall the LF 750 Pro was really comfortable for me at 6'1", and the fat tires handled snow and dirt beautifully. I got 27 miles on a charge riding throttle only by myself, which I found really impressive. It folds into a tight package that fits a sedan, and carrying a passenger is really convenient. At $1,249 when I reviewed it, I felt the price was fair for the specs.

What I liked

  • Comfortable riding position, with adjustable handlebars
  • Fat tires handled snow, dirt and trail really well
  • Twist throttle gives power from zero
  • Suspension seatpost made bumps comfortable
  • Integrated front and rear lights
  • Folds small enough to fit in a sedan
  • Rear seat with backrest; kids said it was comfortable
  • 27 mi on a charge in my throttle-only test

What I didn't

  • The battery key can't come out while the bike is on
  • Throttle only works when you're in a pedal assist mode
  • Rear seat is snug for an adult my size; I'd like the frame a few inches longer
  • No suspension for the rear passenger
  • Noticeable power loss when the battery gets low

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.

Pros and cons

Pros

Cons

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.

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.
