Now that the hub is working well, I am very pleased with Downtube Mini quality. I never thought it would be a high end bike but it is better than I thought it would be for the price. I got the Mini for my first folder and for riding the bus when I need to which isn't all that often because I live in a small town. I also use it when someone visits because it fits almost anyone. A friend came to visit on the ferry and I took my Xtracycle with the Mini in the pannier. I carried the luggage on the Xtra and he rode the Mini to my house.
