Customer Review

I needed a folding bike that up with a few handles and is zurammengelegt. It should be possible for everyday upsetting and traffic regulations approved. This bike meets all requirements as far through eg existing fenders, lights with hub dynamo and hub gears.
The delivery was made quickly in large cardboard box and the assembly is for anyone who has ever screwed on bikes, no problem.
The first practical test showed alledings equal number of weaknesses:
The seat post could be very difficult to fold into rotary motion of the tube and insert it again. Unfortunately, there is no better even after frequent use. Similarly, the circuit was adjusted so that the 2nd gear always jumped out. No tools are traveling, unfortunately nothing can be done.

An annoyance that I already know since I ride my bike, is also available on this wheel: The much too long translated 3rd gear.
This is most useful downhill with a tailwind. On level ground you step too slow and too heavy. I have solved the problem, as I have back a 22er pinion mounted together with a long chain. Bike shops übernemen this job also happy because they know that the industry will never leave their decades-old problem well.
A mistake I want to specifically attribute this wheel is, that in my holiday the handlebar has solved the stem several times and started to turn. Unique tighten in Fahrradladen unfortunately brought only short-term improvement. The second tightening I went to just before the overspeed limit of the screw and support me since not too much on the handlebars. Let's see how long it holds ....
The driving characteristics are sufficient if you want to use it as Cityhopper a folding bike. For cycling the perceived effort is to come forward against a 28 inch wheel but just too big.
Too big but you should not be, because I have never "my" height at 1,72m in the saddle and had to go up to the minimum of Einsteckmarkierung Stattelstange. Larger people will not be happy with the leg angle.
If the quality of the surface treatment I was not expecting much at this price point and was not disappointed. After only 14 days behind the house and under one roof began over the chrome parts only by the humidity to rust.
The brakes, luggage rack, etc. are OK.
In short, I would again buy the wheel though, but just do not bother me because the criticisms and I'm a hobbyist who knows how to help himself.
