Citizen Bike, a Florida-based bike company, has been around since the first days we started reviewing folding bikes. My first folding bike was actually the Citizen Alhambra bike. After years standing still, Citizen Bike has finally joined the e-bike market by releasing the LIL LONDON and LONDON.

They both feature a hidden seatpost-integrated battery pack. The LIL LONDON is the cheaper and more compact version as it comes with a weaker motor, smaller wheels, and only one speed. The LIL LONDON and LONDON are priced at $899 and $1,099 respectively. To see all of their differences in more details, you can check out full specifications below.
