EzPak Folding Bike from Sidewinder
 

Has anyone ever tried one of these?

It has 12" wheels, but it seems to have a small fold (11"x20"x26" kinda brompton sized, albeit less square), it's light (22.5 pounds), and it's cheap ($190). The Sidewinder bent seems to have a good (although quirky) reputation. I wonder if the EzPak is any good.

How do you find this stuff? ;)

What is going on with the drivetrain?

"double chain drive design"

I bought something very similar in China called a Small Flyer by Xidesheng for $60. It was a single speed, about 19lbs with Kenda Kwest tires. We put about 100 miles on them in Beijing over the course of a week. The hinge was identical to the Downtube hinge, the fold was very small.

Website says "Its seat post can be adjusted in a few seconds to fit riders from 3 ft. to 5 ½ ft. in height."

Nice that they actually admit it won't fit a taller person!

Doesn't that bike have 16" wheels? It also has a single drive train. Sounds like a good deal though for $60. Downtube hinges are great (much better than Dahons).

Did you bring the bikes back with you?

How do you find these things???

Pretty cool, but looks like a singlespeed... would want one if it only had more speeds...
