It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Damn, they have some folding bikes on sale for $419. That is shockingly affordable.

Dahon makes good stuff. If you are looking for an affordable folding bike, Zizzo is also a good choice. Tern also makes some more affordably priced folders like the BYB.

Personally, I have a Priority Folder which is more expensive but also has a belt drive and 8 speed IGH: Love it!

I don't need a folder right now, but that's good to know in case I need to hop on a bus with a bike for work :)
