I'm thinking about getting a go-bike. The dealer here in Houston Texas is West Marine. They have a package deal of $999.99 for the ELX8 and travel case.

A few questions for you owners out there:

1. How is the overall ride?
2. How does it compare to other folders like Downtube, Dahon, etc. in terms of ride quality?
3. Is the quality good?
4. Have you had many component failures?
5. I read somewhere that it oscillated after hitting a bump?
6. Has anybody traveled with the bike and their travel case?
7. Has anybody put on a Sturmey Archer hub or something similar?

Thanks
