I always buy secondhand folding bikes wherever possible, however if you are looking for a good value strong & compact folding bike to tour consider Zizzo forte they come highly recommended amzn.to/3tLE3wq

Thanks for showing me what Heaven on earth looks like. The Netherlands got it right when they designed their cities. It's so sad that the United States set up their cities and towns for the automobile instead of their citizens. Great video, hope to see more of Amsterdam. 👍

Yeah it sure is different to the great western “car cities” that I’m used to! Ill be putting out new episodes every Thursday!!!

You were at camping Zeeburg. I was there several times. Took our folding bikes with us to go to the city. Good memories.

@@hobocyclist Try camping Vliegenbos next time. It is in Noord, close to your picknick site.

Good stuff! Great to see. I've been touring on "normal" sized bikes in various countries for over three decades now, but have just invested in a Dahon foldup. I'm about to "test" tour the bike here in Victoria (out of Melbourne) in April along one of the rail routes. Either along the Murray River, or through Gippsland to Bairnsdale. Here's hoping it goes well! Cheers! 🤠

Love your channel and content. I recall one of your older videos wherein you demonstrated that you don't have to spend a ton of money on a folding bike to have a solid, functioning bike for commuting and touring, which I think is great and helps get more people into cycling on folding bikes.

I'm sorry! But as a Dane I may add, that also we have a wonderful place for using bikes in Copenhagen, with special Bike Speedways through town and special bridges for walkers and bikes across our harbor and - canals. And most major roads in Denmark have bikepasses to one or each side. And I also use a Brompton. Finn. Denmark

In my opinion a Brompton is overrated. The shock absorption is low with is small, narrow tires. And the price is high. Sure you get quality in return. And the gearing system of 3 gear Sturmey Archer hub with 2 derailer gear is not optimal. I prefer a 7 gear Shimano hub or a 14 gear Rohloff. The Shimano I had installed on my Dahon D7 for 450 Euros.
