On joining the board...
Bicycles and cycling have always been a part of my life. Worked through high school and college as a bike mechanic, and still have and use my original Park stand PRS-3 and a full complement of tools that I dragged from place to place until I bought my house. Like all kinds of riding. Used to really love touring and bought the Volpe in the hope that someday I might do it again. Recently got back into road, but living in the city a lot of my rides are/were on the folder with my wife or friends. Recently my Downtube frame cracked (first spontaneous frame failure I have had in over a half-century of cycling), so I am looking for a new, modestly priced, folder. Suggestions appreciated. Thanks.

welcome to the forum. I do not know squat about folders, but good luck in your search.
