I've been surprised how comfortable it is. I actually like it a lot more than my other road bike which is probably more "efficient" but definitely less comfortable. And the folder is relatively efficient as well. It only has 8 speeds so you can't keep up with a racer, but loaded down with gear it performs just as well as my roadbike. My only technical difficulty on the trip was a flat tire (that kept recurring because I didn't have a good patch and the replacement tube I bought in Denmark didn't have the right valve... but I finally got a good tube about halfway through the trip). The only other complaint is that if you hold the handlebar with one hand, you get handle vibration because of the long stem. But I've used it tons. I keep it folded in my trunk and ride all the time at work or wherever I go. The folding bike was great. I've been surprised how comfortable it is.

Thanks for sharing the pictures. How did the folding bike work out? Was it good to ride? Frankly I'm jealous. Very nice. Thanks for sharing the pictures. How did the folding bike work out?
