Add the bag and for $225 shipping inclusive you can have a folding bike. I rode next to someone that was commuting on one of these today and it looked ok.

Anyone have one of these or can comment on it? It's very reasonably priced to my eye.

how heavy are the raleigh 20's?
we are too caught up on weight.
it probably is Ok for it's purpose for that rider. the bag alone would be $25.

Citizen bikes are very cheap bikes worth $100 - 150, that sell for $200 - 300, low cost but poor value.
You can get the same thing much cheaper on Ebay.

Downtube bikes that sell for $300 are comparable to $400 bikes, excellent value.

I checked the Citizen website.

The weights they list for their bikes are unbelievable.

They will weight much more considering the materials and components.

A Downtube is much better.
