Actually, after looking at a few brands of folding bikes, I ended up deciding the Brompton was special.

It's rather irksome that we constantly have industry people here with an agenda to promote their brands. This place is rapidly losing its appeal to me and I suspect more than a few others too. At this point I would never consider anything from Pacific or Dahon (the latter is definitely NOT because of Thor - he's one of the good guys IMO). Corporate shills have ruined more forums than trolls.
