Folding tourer quest

.

I have never had a folding bicycle before, but my current circumstances make me want to try one.

I want a folding tourer, with small wheels.


Considerations:

I am a Clyde.

I usually ride a GT for the extra stiffness the triple triangle imparts. So, if anyone happens to know of an extra stiff framed folding tourer, I'd be very interested in hearing about it.

I ride very upright. Think Mary Poppins. I usually have to add a stem riser of some sort to my bikes.


I am willing to deal with looking like a bear riding a bicycle, but I would welcome recommendations as to makes/models people might recommend.

Additionally, I am looking for a manufacturer that is available in Europe/Ukraine, or England*.

Knowledge of which manufacturer sells in those markets may help me track down a shop to purchase it at.

Many thanks!


* Yes, I realize that technically, the UK is in Europe!
