factory

Summary:
My parents actually bought two of these since they will be RVing and can't store/haul a full bicycle. Before they took off, I got a lot of good chances to ride this bike around town. You'd think that a folding bike would be all loosey goosey, but this thing is as solid as if it were a regular frame. I'm sure the alu has something to do with that.

Strengths:
Very solid! Grip shifters are convenient. Well made, nice welds. Rack Comes with storage bag...some other folding bikes don't.

Weaknesses:
As far as the function of the bike there are no complaints. I'm sure hardcore cyclists would have plenty of gripes, but you have to keep in mind what this thing was made for. It wasn't made for a 30 mile loop. It's a town run-arounder and it's perfect for that. I guess the only complaint...although I didn't pay for them, $550 is a little pricey in my book for a "non-serious" bike. But in comparison to other folding bikes maybe, it may be worth it and you'd have to take into account that the bag is included which is extra on some others (bout $100).
