Hi -

After injury and family kept me away from biking for most of the last ten years, my 10-year old son's interest helped re-awaken my own. Riding his 20-inch wheels made me appreciate the maneuverability of the smaller wheels, and I couldn't see myself climbing on my old skinny-tired road bike (a fast but harsh ride) so I eventually began exploring the folder world. Settled on a 2005 Downtube VIIIFS as my first but probably not last folder. So far I've swapped the saddle for my old Ideale, tires for Primo Comet Kevlar 1.50s and stem for a 90mm. More tinkering to come I'm sure.
