Choosing a suitable bicycle for you, be it a folding one or not, is not an exact science. Yeah, sure, you have the specifications, but we think a number of Malaysians would put COST at the topmost of their list in choosing any product. But of course, quality does often trump pricing. But an affordably-priced bicycle is not necessarily poor in quality as its higher-priced counterpart.

You probably already know the effects that cycling has on your physical health. But did you know that your mental health will also be improved with a regular time aside for cycling? Dr Radha Modgi of the mental health charity MIND says that cycling will help lower levels of the 'stress hormone' cortisol, at the same time boost levels of endorphins and serotonin, which are neurotransmitters responsible for making you have that happy feeling.

So, with this in mind, don't slack off when the time comes for that evening cycle, A regular exercise pattern not only keeps your body in shape, but also keeps your mind happy!

Do you worry that owning a folding bike might make you a laughingstock among your friends? We mean, a number of them might have these really cool, state of the art racing or mountain bikes, but when you guys get together for a ride at the park on the weekend, they start making jokes when you wheel out your folding bike?

Granted, a folding bike is not "cool-looking", whatever that means. And it's heavier than the average racing bike. For example, the 1607 Eco-Park Comp folding bike weighs 12.7kg, while the average racing bike weighs about 8kg.

So, it seems that there are more disadvantages than advantages to owning a folding bike. But just imagine the look on your friends' faces when you simply fold your bike and put it in the back seat of your compact car. They, on the other hand, have to strap their bikes to the back of their cars or on the rooftop, which takes some time and effort. For an idea of how easy it is to unfold a folding bike, have a look at the video here.
