Birdy or a GoBike
I am interested in both of these bikes. They look so awesome and heard some good stories about them. Does anyone know where I can find one (new or used)??? How much do these bikes usually run???
Thanks,
Branman

I don't know about GoBike, I'm at the Interbike Show in Las Vegas right now. I note that GoBike is not represented here, at least not that I can find.

Hi Branman
You can find a lot of info on both these bikes on my website as I have owned a customised Birdy Red and currently own a GoBike X9 :-
https://www.long-john.com/pagegobike.htm
https://www.long-john.com/pagebirdy.htm
Both bikes are great, but both have their downsides, one day someone, somewhere will get it just right...............sort of!
