He has a limited budget for good reason, as much as he would like the Birdy. He borrowed one yesterday and told me later that he thought the ride was superb (smooth, enjoyable and fast enough), the weight ideal, the build quality what one would expect from something bearing a German marque and the design very eye catching.

What he did not like the folding method because he felt that on a wet day, the method would involve holding a wet and possibly dirty bike by the wheel(s). Looking at both the pictures of the folding method as well as a video and it does appear that one might get dirty hands with each fold.
