I hope someone can help me. I just missed a chance to buy a folding bike. It was silver, had a black case with the words "Roll 'N' Fold" on the case and on the bike, as well. I have no idea who the manufacturer is, but it seemed like a good bike at a good price, and I would love it if someone who can figure this out could email me the manufacturer, and possibly where I could order one online.

Thank you so much,

Also, go to the BikeForums search page, and search for "Roll 'N' Fold" -- you'll get a number of hits; it's been discussed before.

@ kn, no big loss man, from what i can see that bike sucks anyway (short wheelbase among other things) save you pennies for a Downtube or something else decent you will happily ride for years.

Don't worry about missing out on the bike you saw. Impulse purchases are rarely the "good bargains" they appear to be. I think you will be better served if you do careful research, ask alot of questions, take inventory of you prefered riding style (road, mountain, cruising around the neighborhood, commuting, etc.) and the bicycles you have used and liked in the past. Then go out and buy one that you like. Don't let pressure by well meaning friends and salespeople push you into something you will regret-and try to unload the lemon on another unsuspecting person.
