Re:Folding bicycle small enough to fit in hand luggage by btbuildem on Wednesday March 23, 2022 @10:49AM (#30779006)
I'm happy to see such a lively discussion of folding bikes / bikes as a mode of transport in general on here. So many different solutions! Given how small the wheels are, I'd love to see something that counters the consequent instability (very little angular momentum compared to a "real" bike).

For this particular one, what a unique way to mount the seat.

Thanks to the saddle device, you will get much more weight on the pedals and therefore ride easily very fast despite the smaller wheels.

The stability of the ride is achieved when you relax the handlebars and the Kwiggle adapts to your movement, not vice versa. That is the whole secret.
