Folding bicycle test

For those on a tight budget, here’s a solution from the Bicycles4u.com online provider. There’s a ‘Chopper’ feel to the riding position, but it works well, thanks a rear spring. Still, a fair bit of effort is required uphill, as there’s only one gear. The quick-release catches came apart easily, while the folded package is quite small and was reasonable to carry. The rear rack is handy, but there are quite a few compromises made elsewhere to meet the price.
