Got too many bikes so time to sell one - Tern Link C7 folding bike. Full details on<br /> <a href="https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/tern-link-c7-folding-bike/1317155695" rel="nofollow">https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/tern-link-c7-folding-bike/1317155695</a></p> <p>Frame a bit cosmetically challenged due to being white, but minor. Bike could do with new chain and block. £235 Ono. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8559#post-86268 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 16:49:20 +0000 Bhachgen 86268@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Looking for some advice on folders.</p> <p>Looks like I am about to take the big step from working in financial services for semi-decent-ish money to becoming a bikeability trainer for semi-awful money but a great big wedge of job satisfaction.</p> <p>Don't want to have to buy a car/van to get me around, but some of the "patch" I will be covering is a bit far away for a full cycle commute.</p> <p>Unfortunately the trains down here (Lancs/Greater Manchester/Merseyside) are jam-packed and not very cycle friendly even when half-empty (Scotrail is like some kind of amazing cycletopia railway in comparison but it's the usual story of only appreciating things when you no longer have them).</p> <p>So a folder looks like the best solution for those days when I have further to travel than I fancy doing on my cross bike. Brompton was the first name that came to mind, but they are pretty pricey (remember that paycut I mentioned?) and I have read some mixed reviews. Also considering part of the price premium is justified by the fact it's British designed/built they don't have the best reputation for how they treat their staff. </p> <p>A couple of places seem to be doing Dahons at a good price just now, in particular the <a href="http://www.leisurelakesbikes.com/p/5118/dahon-mu-p8-folding-bike-202011-sale">Mu P8</a> which looks decent enough.</p> <p>I think EBC used to do a "Revolution" folder that looked good value but looks like they have stopped selling it.</p> <p>I'm sure some of the CCE community have some experience with folders so please hit me with the combined total of your knowledge and wisdom! </p>
