Should I buy a folding bike or a non-folder?
I’m going to do a bicycle tour in Canada, at least 50km a day for 3 weeks and I need to buy a bike for this purpose.
A folding bike would be convenient as I wouldn’t have to pay the extra $20 to take it on a Greyhound bus.
It is possible to do this tour on a folder or would it be really uncomfortable/impractical?
I was looking at Strida or Dahon Cadenza or Tournado
I’m thinking about a folder as the trains and ferries are about $20 each so more than $200 in total I would save by having a folder
i would get a non folding because its probably gonna be better quality. thats alot of riding and you want a good bike, not a convient one. remember, its about the actual ride, not the time in between. plus 20 bucks isnt really that much
