Meanwhile every time I get a job interview they are extremely concerned about how I could possibly get to the office with a bike. Its 5km and during rush hour car traffic barely moves, its faster cycling.
Yeah, my bike commute is usually faster and e-bike is always faster because I don’t have to fuck with parking: My bikes fold up under my desk too, so I don’t even worry about bike racks (which is good because my building doesn’t really have one).
I have wondered about getting a folding bike sometime, they usually cost a bit though and I already have a regular bike.
Would recommend! If you want an inexpensive folding bike check out the Tern BYB or Zizzo’s offerings if you’re in the US. If you want something like a Brompton, they’re still expensive but check out brompnots like Takachia, Cranston, Mint, etc.
I have a Priority Folder, it’s a little pricier, but it has a belt drive and internally geared hub, so it’s significantly lower maintenance than most other bikes.
