Review on Xspec 20" Folding City Commuter Bike - Lightweight & Efficient 7-Speed Design For Urban Travel by Dean Partybus

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Takes some know-how to put together

The instructions were. I can't even say 'bad'. They were non-existent, and what little bit was there in the pamphlet didnt seem to apply. It literally showed me unfolding the handle part of the handlebar, as if the handle folded in towards the handlebar stem. Hint: it doesn't, the entire handlebar folds over and down towards the wheel.Anyhow, if you have the mechanical wherewithal to get it together, then you probably also noticed that the latches that keep it from folding up don't have very secure safety features. Literally a plastic tab to slide over it so it doesn't get bumped. That said, I like living dangerously, and rode it anyhow (and will continue to do so!)The bike rides well. I did feel slightly uncomfortable on the bike seat, but it's far better than some. I figure with daily riding I'll get used to it, and if not, I'll replace it as you do with any bike. It makes a slight creaking noise coming from the front end, as of straining metal, some of the time while riding. I think it's just due to the folding nature of the bike.Overall, it was good for exercising, and it is very convenient in my extremely limited space. I will continue to ride it, and edit if there are any major changed to this!

Pros
  • It features a comfortable seat and ergonomic handlebars, ensuring a comfortable ride
Cons
  • The bike may not be suitable for cyclists who prefer to ride in an upright position
