Review on EuroMini Folding Bike Lightweight Aluminum Genuine by Martin Alvarez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Absolutely amazed and delighted (verified by an engineer)

I bought my EuroMini Via after returning the Schwinn loop. The EuroMini website lists this bike for $199 with free shipping and a 30 day money back guarantee, so I decided to take a chance. I have reviewed YouTube videos of folding demos in detail, as well as the EuroMini website. I'm usually an avid Prime buyer so I tried the Schwinn Loop first, but it was so poorly designed and built I couldn't keep it. After considering the Ford Taurus, I decided to try the Euro Mini. Three things about me if you read this review. Firstly, I'm a mechanical engineer, so quality is very important to me. Second, I take cycling classes every morning, which means I enjoy cycling. Third, I was looking for a folding bike that I can carry in the trunk of my car when towing my trailer. I didn't want to expose the bike to the elements or attract thieves to my campsites. I bought the Via because it has folding pedals compared to the Campo. The light weight was a bonus. The fit, shape and functionality of the bike right out of the box was superb. No brake or transmission adjustments were required. The instructions included clear instructions on how to fold and unfold. My test drive went flawlessly. I'm 5ft 9" and could fully straighten my legs which I prefer when riding. A truly unique feature is the magnetic attachments that hold the two halves of the bike together - perfection! Power to hold together when moving, folding and pulling out the trunk and rotating. Then just disconnect when you're ready to ride. Great design feature! To be honest, if I had known the quality of this bike I would never have guessed the Loop at all or the Taurus. Shipping was very fast, got mine in 3 days, but maybe that's because I live pretty close to where the company is located (Northern California). I'm totally amazed and amazed. What this bike can do and allow me to ride in my RV and camping while also storing my bike in a safe place in the trunk. It's incredibly lightweight, easy to fold and store, and really fun. I'm wondering if I'll be using my other regular sized bike and bike rack. Now I know why they offered a money back guarantee - no one will return any of these bikes. They are too cute Thank you EuroMini! :-)
