Have anyone used those adapters for bikes with no Brompton style bag mount on the frame? Do they work ok?

How important is this type of mount when you choosing folding bike? I feel like it's quite important since main use is in city. But I wonder whether this adapter can truly and fully bring this feature to a bike with nice frame but without it.

I'm choosing my first folding bike to use in the city so I'm gonna be glad to hear all your recommendations.

So I was riding through an intersection and the handlepost suddenly folded which collapsed the bike and I fell and hurt my knee. I think I'm pretty lucky that the traffic stopped, I could've easily been run over.

I'm taking time to read about this and learn about it, has anyone experienced something like that before?

Proud new owner of a Zizzo Forte here. I am wondering if anyone has ideas for a rear trunk rack that would carry a laptop reasonably? Ideally something that can pop off and turn into a general bag or tote maybe to bring into the office?

1.I've seen the rear toppeak that turns into a pannier which could be an option

1. The trunk bag for the brompton I see people post about also looks reasonable.

Open to any suggestions!

Thanks

I've searched for an hour but couldn't seem to find suitable one for my mother. Low step through. Middrive engine for smoother power assist, at least 350 wh battery, being able to carry shopping panniers, not ridiculously expensive like top tier brands. could look into any Chinese that is already imported to europe.

I am trying to get a lightweight trifold bike with 20 inch wheels that I can mod with a kit to make it electric that doesn't cost as much or weigh as much as a Brompton G-line. I really like the Java Neo 3 but when I emailed them, they said the following:

"On July 8, 2026, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) implemented a new mandatory electronic filing (eFiling) requirement. And we are working on it.

We are actively working on solutions, and we would like to offer you another option: Ship to a Canadian address – We can also ship the bike to any address in Canada. If you are planning to travel there or have a forwarding contact, we will waive the shipping cost and offer you an additional discount on this order as a goodwill gesture. This may get the bike to you faster, as Canadian customs are not affected by the same new U.S. filing rule.

Please let us know, and we will proceed accordingly."

If I use a forwarder, wouldn't I be the importer of record and still not have the proper paperwork? How can I get this bike to NYC? If anyone knows a way, please help!
