    So I'd been threatening to get one for a while but finally bit the bullet and bought one from Hollingsworth yesterday evening.

    Got a 3 speed in Britsout Racing Green!

    I've mine 6 months now and have put 500+km on it - use it as my main way of getting around town.

    Get a basket and you can even use it to go to the shops.

    Yes, it's my getting-a-few-messages bike. It's ready to hand, under the stairs, I've incorporated a small repair kit into the frame and saddle, it has fixed lights, and because of the fold, I only have to bring one big lock. A long Kryptonite Series 4 lock goes through the triangle and the front wheel. Z-lok combo and normal z-lok secure the saddle and rear wheel (because the fold means you can't get the rear wheel off). I don't leave the basket on the bike like that; I bring it into the shop to put the messages in.

    I don't leave it for too long outside (homemade basket only big enough for a modest shop anyway), but that's probably being overcautious.
