There’s something about it…
I have for some months, been the owner of a folding bike. Just a cheap one Dahon copy. Probably about as cheap as folding bikes get.
Either way, I’ve spent some time messing with it, adding a few bits out of the part box, removing a bits and now I have myself a new old bike…
Yes, yes, the rear wheel plus the seat post is worth many times more than the bike itself.
Anyway, first ride in today on this bike. Just to make it interesting, I was also riding pretty heavily loaded.
All I can say… what a fun bike to ride and it’s soooo comfortable. That’s not just due to the Thudbuster. The natural flex of the frame inherent in a folding bike also provides some form of suspension. Sure it’s not as fast and efficient as my road bike, but I think I could ride this bike all day.
The one thing I miss though is a top tube to sit on at the lights…
