ENVIRONMENT: Folding bikes Part 3

More bikes to add to my list of good bikes.

Xootr Swift - Fold is not as smooth but some people on bikeforums.net have done a few mods to make it their dream bike. The frame design is clean.

Mercbike (a Brompton clone) - 16" wheels with upgraded components from the original Brompton. The current bike is a 3 speed Sturmey-Archer internal hub. More gears coming in their next model. For decent pictures look at this bikeforums.net thread. This type of bike is ideal for multi-modal commuting i.e train, bus, and bike.

Burro - Extremely tough bike, literally can go anywhere a bike can go.
