Well, nearly two weeks down the road, this is what I've got



Its similar to the one I owned in the UK but cheaper metal frame and single gear.

To be fair I've only ridden about 10 miles using electric assist which to my surprise works just as it should. I commute 12 miles to work every day, so I exercise a bit, but as the weather starts to get warmer I'm likely to start using the electric more, plus I like to have backup to ride large distances of 20-30 miles.

As to big bikes versus foldable, I really like the option to fold. It makes it easier to store at work or in a supermarket cart, should I not be able to find a safe place and also allows me to combine cycling with car when I meet someone, which is great! Its a trade-back, I know I could get a much more comfortable full size, full suspension bike, but thankfully roads here in AZ are mostly great, a big upgrade from England!
