Regular reader(s) of my blog may recall I briefly owned a blue Bike Friday:
I bought this bike off eBay, hoping to fix two issues with my Bike Friday Crusoe:
- I wanted a better fold, and
- I wanted more tire clearance
This BF was interesting because it was the New World Tourist front frame (a bit heavier duty than my Crusoe), but with the Silk rear end. The Silk rear end folds the bottom bracket with the rear wheel, helping to keep the chain on the chain ring and fixing the #1 aggravation of folding a Bike Friday.
