Bike Friday Pocket Expedition / Llama, even the Companion / New World Tourist are durable. While not the most compact, these are still far better than a Montague or Matrix in folded size. The Expedition / Llama will handle bunny hopping, curb dropping and cross country mountain biking without any question.

I believe that I will agree with some of the other posters. You are likely to enjoy a smaller wheeled folding bicycle more than a large one for your needs. Unless your commute is a mountain biking trail, you can simply own a mountain bike alongside your folder.
