BusinessWeek takes on the origami bike

BusinessWeek | A Commuter’s Secret Weapon

BusinessWeek offers a look at folding bikes, including a comparison of a Brompton, a Birdy, Xootr’s Swift, and two Dahons, the Speed Pro TT and and Speed D7.

The author test rides each around Washington, DC, and rates the Brompton smallest folding and cleverest, the Birdy, with its front suspension system, the smoothest, the Xootr as “most like a real bike,” the Dahon Speed Pro the fastest, and the Speed D7 the best value ($330 list).
