I hope this helps your decision. Let me know if you have any specific questions.
Hi Wilfried,
I'm researching folders with the aim of using one for medium-long distance touring. It won't be a round the world type of affair but more traveling here and there. I like the folding concept for arriving at airports, train stations, etc, and just folding it out and cycling away hassle free. I have no idea about cycles really other than you sit on them and peddle. So naturally I'm quite nonplussed by the sheer amount of options and choices out there. Sorry to cut this short then, I was looking at the Verge P20 - with the idea of putting a rack on the back and using it for this type of travel. Would you think it would make a good tourer? The Verge would be at the very top of my budget, hence the Tern models specifically made for touring (Verge Tour and Elicpse Tour) are too pricey. Any tips from an existing owner would be appreciated!
Many thanks
