Anyone had experience of this bike or do you have recommendations on any other bike?

Many thanks
Smaller wheels are generally stronger than larger ones. However the bike in question looks like it has fewer spokes than i think you might need. Just an observation, at 210lbs. id be looking for sturdier wheels(more spokes). Alot of folder weight limits are only around the 230lbs. for rider. Your also pretty much at the limit for most folders in height,i didnt see a listing for how tall a person can fit it. Although i guess mods can be made usually.So maybe look around a bit more.
Lets see what others have to say though.
