I love my Tokyo and have taken it on several 50+ mile jaunts since I got it with the only upgrades/tweaks being a side mirror, bottle holder I had from a past bike, and a pair of Schwalbes. The gearing is low and I mean low. First gear will get you up the steepest incline you can think of while sitting down. The 6th gear will max you out at roughly 15-18mph while pushing a decent cadence. It is a cruiser, not a racer. The fold is reasonably small and the hinge seems to be tight and easy to adjust if it ever loosens. That said it feels very solid with no detectible flexing. The bike is a little on the heavy side, but it is managable.

For rider size reference I am 5'9" and 125lbs.
