  • So cool! Batafold!

  • It is cool, rides like a noodle but the braking / gearing mechanism is fun. It’s quite easy to lock the rear wheel with the coaster brake

    Some more info: The bottle dynamo works, I replaced both bulbs with LED and cooked the front one on the first ride. Rear has an electrical contact within the folding mechanism, when you sit on it the weight flexes the join just enough to break the contact.. so needs a bit of fettling there too.

  • PM’d :)
