Hi everyone, I'm new here & am looking to buy a folding bike. Is it advisable to buy a second hand folding bike ? I saw an ad for a tern verge but it's 3 years old. Appreciate any advice or experience from fellow riders here. Tq.

Yaya coz i heard that the hummer is very heavy so i though the rim will make the overall bicycle lighter.
No experience at all.
Sifus here please guide.

More advice required regarding my foldies tyre again~~

I double checked and confirmed my tyre recommended pressure is between 35 to 65 psi...so i have taken some fellow biker's advice and only go for the middle...front 48 psi and rear just over 50psi...the ride feels much better~~

However yesterday (Tuesday) night i have a problem, the rear tire almost totally run flat when i do checking before the ride....few nights (i think on Saturday) before i have just pumped it up~~the front is still fine~~

i have checked the tire thoroughly~~no puncture was noted...i have tested the valve as well...seems just fine and no hissing sound noted~~~the only incident i can recall is that i ran through a small wooden branch and it was kind of stuck between the fender and tire (Monday night) and I almost fell down...wonder would this be the cause of the problem...but i did not really felt any big difference the same night

anyway i have pumped it up at the petrol station yesterday and ride about half an hour or so with constant checking... it looks just fine...but the "sudden" leak worries me a bit~~~

i am running on the schwalbe citizen and it was suppose to be puncture resistance...will check my tires again tonight, wonder if it is still good~~

Would like to seek advice** on this matter~~and what is your experience of a unexpected tire puncture like this~

**additional/alternative checking, cause and if this is normal
