Adventures of the Zag 7
Here is my version of a thread that has probably been done here before.
I recently bought a Breezer Zag 7 and brought it with me on an business/holiday trip I am taking. Here is a pic of the bike. Stock except for the seat and some SPD pedals.

Here is the bike in my suitcase. There was actually space leftover for some clothe and stuff. I was quite pleased it fit so well. Disassembling it to this point only took a few minutes.

Thanks keke. Make sure and post pics when you do, most of us live vicariously through these pics until the rare chance that we get to actually take the trip. Where are you located?

The Beezer folder is made by Oyama isn't it ?
Whay price do they go for, and is there an equivalent Oyama model at a better price.

As to price, I am not sure because I got it for "free" using credit card points, but based on the number of points it took I would place the price somewhere between $500 and $575 USD.

I am quite pleased by well this little bike climbs, both in the seat and up on the pedals. The altitude of nearly 2000 meters (6,500 ft) had me suffering. The bike also handles quite well on the twisty descents with good brake performance.

This little hill was really steep but mercifully short. The little Breezer almost became the aptly named "push bike" but I was able to ride all the way up. For this kind of work I would want to change the front ring to a 48T.
