What is the disadvantage of a folding bike?
A folding bike might not be the best choice for those who crave speed. Their smaller wheel can lose momentum on bumps, limiting the pace at which you can cycle. Moreover, folding bikes don’t usually travel more than 10-12 mph. A folding bike can be ridden in the same way as a standard bike. But, when folded, folding bikes are easier to carry into buildings and on public transport. They can be more conveniently stored at home (even if space is at a premium), in a car, a boat or onboard a plane.
Should I buy a folding bike?
Urban agility & convenience: You can’t do much better than a folding bike for city living. Not only do they have all the benefits we mentioned above for storing in an apartment where space is limited, they also have nimble handling and a good upright riding position, helping you to weave about the streets. Seniors can enjoy a folding bike that is easy to store, simple to ride, and capable of handling daily life as well as short recreational rides. Its thoughtful design and practical features make it a standout option for those seeking independence and mobility without compromise.
