not really, dont know what the use of them is, because the gear ratio of these foldable bikes very small, cant go fast, although convenient, but then looks very stupid sometimes when seeing people ride on these bikes.
last time in london alot of ang mohs like to ride

Some of my colleague ride a "SwissBike" foldable mountain bike. Looks pretty spiffy.

my colleagues swear by these bikes, even though they look quite 'cartoon' to me..

but apparently, these bikes are fast cos my colleagues did very well in the recent triathalon event!!!

I've seen these bikes on the roads in Singapore (well, if not from Dahon at least similar brands). They look really funny but seem to function pretty well.

On a personal note, I think cycling is quite dangerous in the CBD. There are lots of ang mohs who do so but cars here drive quite fast.

i was thinking of getting a mode IF or something...

but i got some old bikes hanging around... thinking of converting one of them to single speed.

i just want to have 1 for commuting.

I checked out the duhon, they look pretty cool unlike my kid's fold-able bike. Pretty light as well. Bike has really gone hitech these days.

I thought abt taking a bike to work but changed my mind, i didnt to sweat all day.

I was also looking at foldable bikes. There is a great place where they have a few brands of foldable bikes. I like the Montague or Strida.
