The best folding bike is the one you don't have to worry about when lugging it onto a train. Because, let's face it, your fellow commuters will be inwardly tutting when they see you on the platform, foldable cycle in tow. That is unless the bike is no bigger than a briefcase and you aren't sporting threadbare Lycra.
UPDATE: We've collected together the best folding bikes available to buy right now below, but there are some new electric additions worth flagging up. Our favourite new entry is the GoCycle GX, which is designed to be folded in less than 10 seconds (!) and provides a smooth and comfortable ride worthy of more than just supplementing your daily commute each morning – find out where it ranks in our list below.
There's a reason you want to bike, though. Whether you’re in the city or the country, cycling can be a whole lot of fun. But for those us who have limited storage space or have to commute by train or bus, a full-sized bike just isn’t possible.
Enter the humble folding bike. Light, portable and easy to store, the folding bike is the perfect solution for the weekday cyclist or part-time rider.
Here’s our pick of some of the best on the market. Upvote and downvote to have your say.
