Review: Great bike for the money - ​I was initially a bit skeptical about ordering a bike online, but this product arrived extremely well-packaged and protected. The packaging was sturdy, ensuring the bike arrived in flawless condition. ​The moment of truth came when I unfolded it. This bike truly transforms! It opened up effortlessly into a full-size, robust bicycle with absolutely no hassle. The mechanism is smooth and secure—no wobble or flimsy feel whatsoever. ​ I immediately took it out for a quick two-mile test ride, and honestly, it completely blew past my expectations. The ride quality felt solid and comfortable. The brakes are responsive and brought me to a stop smoothly, and the gears shifted cleanly and efficiently throughout my journey. Everything worked to a very good, reliable standard right out of the box. ​If you are looking for a compact bike that doesn't compromise on the quality of a full-size ride, I highly recommend this model. A fantastic purchase! ​Pros: ​Excellent, protective packaging. ​Easy, seamless transformation into a full-size bike. ​Reliable brakes and smooth-shifting gears. ​Great value and better-than-expected performance.
Review: Great buy - I was incredibly sceptical that this "budget" priced bike could be any good but while the steering column maybe a light off centre and the brakes quite old school, caliper style technology, the bottom line, is that it does exactly what I need. It's dead easy to collapse and reassemble and nice and light to haul onto a train etc.. and rides very well with the gearing using the large drive cog, working well

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars at this price, or at an even higher price. A cheap bike, but not a 'cheap bike'.
*by M***N on 8 May 2016*

I have been feeling lousy with a cold since this arrived and haven't ridden it yet so this review is based on a first few (reasonably well-informed) impressions. You may be like me, a cheapskate looking for a folder for occasional use and with no desire to spend too much. You are on the horns of a dilemma: looking at the folding bike market you know that £200 is a very, very competitive price for bike with this spec, but it is also too much to throw away on a complete dog. Who the hell are Ecosmo, we ask ourselves and why is a bike with an aluminium frame and fork and a competent parts list going for a song? Anything in the £200 price range from anyone else is a hi-ten steel lump, weighing upwards of 15 kg. You may also, like me, go onto Ecosmo's website and see a whole range of far less impressive looking bikes for sale and then fear that your prospective purchase is simply a well camouflaged heap of junk. The website is an above average Chinese-inspired affair with just enough information and even photos of their factory (and we'll take them at their word that it is theirs) to inspire confidence. They can't spell 'Kenda' (as in the natty black and red tyres with which this bike comes shod) and, as websites go, it's a bit clunky but at least they've got one. Maybe you've even done some further digging to see who these mysterious Ecosmo guys are and found out that many are referring to them as a Dahon sub division, a part of Dahon's brand engineering project to keep itself at the top of the folding bike tree globally. In order to corner the growing Chinese market and to fight off outfits like Tern in the West (an industrial family feud worthy of a soap opera, it seems) founder David Hon has licensed the company's technology to allow companies like Ecosmo to sell what are essentially re-badged Dahons at a lower price point that the parent company could allow itself to do. I was curious and so contacted Ecosmo directly. Were they a Dahon sub brand and was that a 33.9mm seat post, were my questions. The response came very quickly (and on a Sunday!) that in the UK they are their own brand, which I took to be a rather cryptic evasion of the point. And yes, it is a 33.9mm seat post. Impressed by their pre-purchase service and reasonably convinced that they are essentially a Dahon in Ecosmo's clothing I hit the 'Buy Now' button and crossed my fingers. Exciting isn't it? It arrived the next working day and so with trembling fingers I opened the sturdy box. It was well packaged with all the standard expanded foam wraps on the frame and fork and the hub nuts covered in black plastic discs and so on. It required putting together with tools and was ready to fly in a couple of minutes. First impressions: high quality welds and general build, good paint (pearlescent white in my case) and good finishing kit (generally). The seat post and saddle are not to my taste- I don't like sofas masquerading as saddles but it does have a cut out to relieve pressure in the right areas. The mudguards and rack are well attached and aligned with Allen bolts, not crappy screws or bolts. The hubs are 'Shun Feng' branded (I know, they're my fave brand too) and are nutted rather than QR. At least that makes them more tamper-proof when locked up outdoors (you get a dinky wee spanner for them) and despite the non-brand brand they look serviceable enough. The brakes are quite impressive and are, I suspect, Avid FR 5 clones, both levers and brakes. There is nothing cheap and flimsy about these and they remind me of some of the better quality units I've had on mountain bikes back in the day. I don't love Shimano grip shifters as they are bulky in the hand and can require awkward wrist contortions at times, but they are certainly livable and can be replaced with trigger shifters for very little cash whenever I can be bothered. So, in summary, for £200 (+ £20 p&p- the honesty of the separate costing of which I appreciate; i.e. you're not charged £225 with 'free postage') you get a very, very good deal. The machining under the folded stem might be slightly slicker on a Dahon (might, I don't know) and the clasp holding the bike together might be a little higher quality (again, I'm going on my first impression with no reference point) on a Dahon but beyond that it is a very convincing bike overall and not a cheap ill thought out 'bike shaped object' built down to a price, piled high and then sold cheap. If you want a folder that'll be fit for purpose even for regular use, aren't a label snob and love a bargain then look no further.
