Folding bike for touring
hi all,
I am based in UK. I am touring in Dec, 800kms average daily elevation 3500ft. Supported so no luggage will be carried.
Due to practicalities i cannot take by road bike.
I am thinking about Tern Folding bikes.
Confession- i do cycle 10k km a year...lots of climbs, but never ridden a folder. Tried one for 15 and felt ok.
my question is which folder bike would you recommend and what groupset which is reasonably fast, 14mph on flats but easy to climb as well.
Handlebar attachements looks like obvious, but any other changes you would recommend.
I need a bike which can fold into a large suitecase which can be taken as check in luggage not sports equipment. I believer some of the terns achieve that.
For my need fold or ease of carriage is not a major issue, i want a bike which can achieve the distance without being too exhaustive that i have to give up.
