Thinking about getting a Birdy. What are the real downsides?
After looking into a few different bike options, I realized that a folding bike is the ultimate fit for my daily routine since I need to fold and store it every single day.
Eventually, the Birdy caught my eye the most because of its unique aesthetic, distinct design, and solid pricing. Plus, I literally never see anyone riding one around where I live, which makes it feel pretty special.
I know its unique look and rarity are huge pros, but I want to make sure I'm fully aware of any potential downsides before pulling the trigger so I don't get disappointed later on.
For those of you who own or ride a Birdy: What are the real-world cons, quirks, or annoying things about it?
Appreciate any insights!
