Oh you mean one of these bad boys? And it has its own carrying case.adfnio said:The last I checked these fold-able bikes are really small. Getting them in and out of the work place should be relatively easy.
I can see how having one of these foldable bikes, you traded weight and performance for convenience and storage capabilities. Most of the hardcore enthusiast will stick to something more mainstream and not these mass niches that someone tried to fill.Zif said:I've had a folding bike before, it was very convenient and I could take it on the commuter train any time of day which was nice. It's also great for fitting in your car without any issue. That said it does add some extra work at the start and end of any ride, and the weight and performance are worse than a regular bike generally. I'd say generally ok for short distances where you can't really lock a bike up somewhere well. Not so good if you can just lock up a cheap bike or use a nicer one with better performance.
That is neat little bike. It might not handle like a real top of the line bike, but for commuting and storing, it will do. I don't think I will win any brownie points with the enthusiast out there.joshposh said:Oh you mean one of these bad boys? And it has its own carrying case.
I just purchased a folding bike - Raleigh Boardwalk 6 speed. It's made of aluminium and it folds easily and conveniently in to the boot of my car or in to a bike shelf on public transport.Gelsemium said:When commuting one of the concerns is parking. So what about foldable bikes, do these solve this problem and are a good solution or not really?
I bought my bike second hand : it cost €250.00.sunshiney said:I can definitely see the benefits of a folding bike, particularly if your commute involves the bus or subway as well as cycling. They seem fairly pricey though, and I would be a bit worried about sturdiness and general performance, so it's not an option I would pursue unless I was really having storage issues. That said, if it was a choice between not being able to cycle to work, or cycling to work on a folding bike, I would take the folding bike no problem
Wow, nice bike, if this is my foldable bike I'm going to bring it during my travel. Honestly, first time to see this kind of foldable bike. Most of the time the foldable bike around my apartmet are just have small wheels and just for short distance travel, and this one I think is a monster.Oh you mean one of these bad boys?
