Thinking of switching to a Folding Bike
More than half of the world’s population lives in a city and every day we endure the daily commute to offices, schools, coffee shops, shopping centers and back home. One in three London commuters use the train to help relieve stress and many now use bicycles to complete the journey to or from the train station.
At some point they will have to bring their bike, and at some point in the near future, trains, buses and planes will stop allowing full-size bikes on board as pressure for space and weight limitation increases. So if you’re a cyclist, it makes sense to buy a lightweight folding bike now.
Folding bike owners are liberal in their praise of folding bikes. These are some of the advantages they have shared with us:
1. Folding bikes make commuting easy
2. The Urban Range is lighter for getting on and off public transport and is generally more accepted as it quickly folds up into a small package.
3. Doesn’t take up a lot of space at home in an apartment or townhouse/flat
4. The specs are higher on folding bikes these days.
5. Prices are now comparable to traditional upright bikes
6. They are not as flimsy as they seem
7. Now there is a wide variety of colors and types of folds
8. As parking prices rise, the demand for folding bikes will increase
9. A folding bike is less likely to get stolen since you can take it with you
10. Landlords feel they are helping cities go ‘green’
11. Folding bikes can be substantially adjusted to fit everyone (kids around 14 years old) (maximum inside of rider leg is 34″)
As Britain’s ‘green city’ policy takes hold, more and more commuters will trade in their cars for folding bikes.
