  2. Qoroz Freedom Won

    A beautiful Titanium minibike, similar to Tyrell bikes, but with couplers to separate. It fits into a suitcase small enough for airline legal hand luggage. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2451/4008748089_a39aa00c79.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2606/3994053660_e7401af8c9.jpg ...

  5. How do you change tubes on the rear wheel of a Brompton if you have a flat?

    The rear wheel has a hex nut on the right side with the shifter chain going into it. I don't see how you loosen nuts on both ends of the wheel and the wheel would drop out so you can change the tube.

    A few weeks ago, I was contacted by the guys at Abio Bikes. "Would you mind test riding one of our folding bikes?", they asked. I had never heard of Abio Bikes, but hey, if someone wants to offer me a new bike to ride for a while, I'm not genetically built to turn that offer down. Turns out Abio...

    To make a long story short, I didn't want to overhaul my Sturmey Archer XRF8 hub again, having had less than complete success on previous attempts, so I took it to my local bike shop where, they assured me, they know about these things. Four weeks later, I picked it up last Saturday. The bike...

    As of Friday, Nov. 13th at 05:00pm I took delivery on my new silver Zootr Swift. I've only rode it 7 miles so far, so it would be unfair to make judements at this point, but here are some of my first thoughts: (1) The bike was packed really well in the box, no danger of parts breaking in the...
