I think breaking might happen with any bike... even a Brompton. But yeah, I've heard of terns breaking frames.
but also of Dahons breaking hinges resulting in bad accidents...
Funny, but we don't seem to have anywhere NEAR as many, if any, claims of dahon frames breaking WITHOUT dahon attempting to rectify the situation. Now tern, on the other hand, has attempted to silence people MULTIPLE times when a frame breakage occurs. It's the complete opposite of DAHON. I own a tern bike, and I own 4 dahon bikes,...can you guess which brand I trust more?
