STRIDA SX Folding Bike. Silver Lightweight, very compact, greater for commuting

Used, in very good conditionCollection from Chiswick, West London (W4).  Cash on collection; no PayPal please.You're welcome to try before you buy.  It's an unusual ride, but you can see from the components it's a very special build, and designed to fold very small to make it easy to take on public transport.  It's ideal for commuting, but not what I'd recommend for rides longer than 5-6 miles.Note: the SX is the slightly higher range model.It has a triangular frame; very fast to fold/unfold (~10s).  Just push the safety lever to release the front wheel and bottom tube, secure the front wheel together with the rear wheel magnetically, and finally fold the bottom tube back. You can also fold the handlebar too but it is not really necessary. The rear rack can act as a stand when folded or you can use it to prop the bike vertically against the wall. I also love that the bike is so easy to roll around when folded. It is well balanced, so I don’t have any problem rolling it by pushing the handlebar.The seat is adjustable and Strida say it can fit people from 4’9″ (1.45m) to 6’4″ (1.93m) but I won’t recommend this bike to riders that are taller than 6', or 6'2" at a push, because your knees will be too close to the handlebars.  The seat height adjustment only has three settings, and you have to remove 3 or 4 bolts to make the adjustment, so it's not ideal if you share the bike with someone of a different height.Reviews say it's a better riding experience than the Brompton S1E, but obviously limited to a single speed.Minimal design with almost no visible cables.  High-quality components (belt drive, disc brakes, etc). Easy to roll when folded. Sturdy frame. Fast folding and unfolding. Low maintenance."According to customer reviews, the vast majority of cyclists (up to 91%) are happy with the STRiDA SX folding bike.
