Hello everyone,

In my search to find a folding bike, I came across an older Birdy for sale not too far away from me. I don't have enough posts to post a link to the ad, or even photos, but it's the only Birdy currently listed on Pinkbike in North America (item # 2254324). I'm hoping that the experts on this board could let me know their general thoughts about this bike.

I plan to use it for a fairly short commute (around 13 kms one way; the other would be by bus). It looks like it's in great shape, albeit somewhat customized (cassette has been removed, dyno hub has been installed). However, I do realize that it's an older model.

Not being familiar with folding bikes, and even less so with Birdys, is this a good buy for the purpose that I intend to use it for?

I would appreciate any thoughts you may have, both good and bad.
