That's a very cool bike at a good price. It's not the smallest fold so I probably wouldn't pick it for riding the train or bus every day, but it's fine for the occasional toss into the car to drive to a riding spot. I say go for it..at that price you can always resell it if you decide you'd like to try something else. All us folder people go through several permutations of this type of bicycle as we learn what works best for us.
