Mean same efforts to ride the same distance and terrian lah

It all boils down to tyre size. Bigger tyre less effort as compared to 16”.

Yeah I know but someone told me a good branded foldable is as good as a street bike even with a smaller wheel set. I was just wondering how it this so.

20” with crap drivetrain will be easier to ride than Brompton 6 spd with 54 tooth chainring

doesn't it all boil down to gearing?

except for rough terrrain, where i think bigger diameter will have smoother ride, assuming tyre pressure is appropriate.

Assuming same gearing, bigger wheel is better except climb hill.

Climb hill with 16” easier

Yes, for longer distance, a 16" foldie is not fun to ride. Foldies are for see see look look and eat eat.

Be like those who like in the snow belt. A beater for the snow, so a beater bike for the rain. Don’t need to bother to maintain.

Seriously you think it is the best and can be equivalent to a reasonably priced road bike? I was told another brand is better but then it is always the brand fan that say so. 😆

Yes, I’m being sarcastic bro. 😁

16” is too small for me. Minimum 20”.
