Well, the little wheel fetish continues and was thinking about a bickerton folding cycle. Was wondering if anyone had one? Also to see if you had converted it to fixed. As standard its the usual 3 speed strumley archer rear hub.

Have you ever read about them?

Not a good idea , even if you can still find one in one piece.

I may have a folding Raleigh Twenty up for grabs . It depends on my daughter getting a new bike ..

Well I've read that they are a little flexy but its an experience.

A very old thread, I was just about to post up a for sale , and found this thread so thought Id see if after 4 years you might still be interested in a Bickerton folding bike?
I have 2 up for grabs, I don't know very much about them, but have a fair few photos of them here:

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
