Ive got to say, I wasnt sure whether the bike would live up to the hype. After my first three days of riding, I believe its all that and more! It rides great over smooth or broken roads as well as uphills and downhills. I find it to be very comfy even after spending an hour and a half in the saddle. Finally, as a city commuter, Im a huge fan of the portable, low-maintenance design.

At last a really cool folding bike, that works - for the rest of us !

Stunning bike ! .. I was a little sceptical at first, most advice was to stick to the more traditional fold-in half bikes, and to choose a bike with the best riding position. BUT I am so pleased I bought this as the it is actually better than the alternatives : I LOVE the riding position, really comfy, straight back .. great for visibility .. my old bike (with traditional riding position) now just gives me back and neck ache ! It folds so simply, more like an umbrella than a bike, and then because it rolls on its wheels, it is so easy to walk with. The only negative is the number of people who stop and want to know about it .. they are amazed to see it fold and looks so different for a bike.

It felt expensive at the time but now ive been using it for a few weeks its probably one of the best things i own .. looks great and works well. I just dont know why I havent seen them before - poor marketing ??

A really cool product - totally recommended !
