I have been watching CL for months but haven't seen anything that meets my needs. Folding bikes on CL tend to be in bigger cities and that is
not at all convenient for me. I did go to Nycebikes in NYC (days before they went under) and test drove a Dahon. It is not easy to find folders
to test drive. I've concluded I will probably have to take a chance and buy online w/o ever having tested the model first. I understand the risks.
