Folding or normal bike?

Folding bike? 16" or 26" tire???

  • I just bought a folding bike and it looks awsome. But it's crap to ride. It's only got a 16" wheel. Is that why it's so hard to ride? If I bought a 26" folding bike, would that be better? I founds this online: http://www.rvtoyoutlet.com/p-RVXDF2001.html What do you think??? I don't want to spend alot of money cause the darn thing will only get stolen. All bikes get stolen eventually!!! But I have to have a folding bike so it will fit in my tiny car. Thanks to you all!

  • Answer:

    Yes, wheel size is the major factor in efficiency and a better over all ride.

Yeah, it will be better. Bigger wheels will give you less rolling resistance, will be easier to roll over stuff. Bumps will have less of an impact, and you'll get a little more traction Most of all, the larger wheels will make it much more comfortable. good luck
