ladies and gentlemens....
what's wrong with a real bike?

Nothing wrong with a real bike. I already have one. I just don't want to leave it out on the street here while I work. Heard way too many stories about stolen bikes. I think a folding bicycle will be really practical and easier to manage.

I had a bickerton, a pioneer of the style and it was a pain in the neck. The ride was squirrely, breaking it down needed space, carrying the folded bike was ridiculous, and all I got were stares not matter what position the bike was in. If you want to be noticed get one.

how heavy is yours, barb? is it easy to carry into your office?
i've been looking at 20" wheels.i think folding bikes work nicely for girls. i might look really ridiculous on it. i guess i'll find out when i test ride.
