The Blix Vika+ Flex is a compact, fully-equipped folding e-bike built around a 500W geared rear hub motor and a removable 48V 614Wh battery. It runs as a Class 2 machine with both 5-level cadence-sensed pedal assist and a thumb throttle, both capped at 20 mph, with a claimed range of up to 45 miles per charge. The folding aluminium step-through frame and folding stem collapse down for storage in a car boot, caravan, boat or under a desk, yet the bike still arrives ready to ride with a rear rack, painted alloy mudguards, integrated front and rear LED lights and a backlit LCD with USB charging.
Rolling on cushioned 20″ x 2.4″ puncture-resistant tyres with Tektro mechanical disc brakes and a 7-speed Shimano Tourney drivetrain, it balances comfort, control and easy maintenance.
Important: with a 500W motor and full throttle, this exceeds the UK 250W EAPC limit. It is classed as off-road / not road-legal in the UK and would require registration, licensing and insurance for public-road use.

A Closer Look at the Blix Vika+ Flex
The Vika+ Flex is built around a 500W geared rear hub motor and a removable 48V 614Wh battery, offering both 5-level cadence-sensed pedal assist and a thumb throttle. The folding aluminium step-through frame and folding stem are designed for genuine portability — it collapses down small enough for a car boot, a caravan, or storage under a desk — while still arriving fully equipped with a rear rack, mudguards, integrated lights and a backlit LCD with USB charging.
Cushioned 20in x 2.4in puncture-resistant tyres and a 7-speed Shimano Tourney drivetrain keep the ride comfortable and the gearing practical for varied terrain, while Tektro mechanical disc brakes provide reliable, low-maintenance stopping power.
Who Rides the Vika+ Flex, and Where
Important: with a 500W motor and full throttle, the Vika+ Flex exceeds the UK’s 250W EAPC limit. As stated above, it is classed as off-road / not road-legal for UK public roads in this configuration, and would require registration, licensing and insurance to use on the road. It suits riders who want a genuinely portable, throttle-equipped folding bike for private land or as a utility vehicle around a site or smallholding, rather than a road-legal daily commuter.
Setup & Care
The 7-speed Tourney drivetrain and mechanical disc brakes are straightforward to maintain and adjust at home without specialist tools. Charge the removable 48V battery per the supplied guidance, and check the folding stem and frame latches periodically for wear given how often a folding bike gets, well, folded. The puncture-resistant tyres reduce roadside repairs but aren’t immune to sidewall damage — check pressure regularly.
