    Congrats on your new bikes, Mimi. I'm with kmehrzad. I had a Dahon and it was fine for commuting and shorter rides. But my Bike Friday is much more suitable for long road rides. It takes me about 30 minutes to pack for travel. Less than 5 minutes to fold and put in a bag for quick transport--about the same as my Dahon.

    We were surprised at the nice handling of the Dahon. My husband has ridden both bikes and feels the opposite (that the dahon rides better than the bike friday) but that's why there are so many brands of bikes; we all have our own opinions...

    Hi Mimi! Somehow I missed your earlier post. I don't remember if you got the I-Beam seatposts -- if that's what you have, you should be able to find an adaptor that will allow you to put your Brooks on it.

    Looking forward to hearing about your folding bike rides!
