Hi /n/ I have a practical question to ask.
I run and recently start a marine/reef aquarium service/installation business, and I have 3 employees now and I've divided out my clients from suburban which we have to drive to, to metro accessible city clients. Right now I offer unlimited ride metro cards to my employees but I wan't give them the leg up and offer the option of using a bike as well.
So I'm looking for a folding bike (the city I live in allows bikes on the train/racks on buses but not during weekday rush hour) that's light, utilitarian, robust and has some sort of cargo carrier with it.
This would be a great help since some clients are near but closer in bike range to a metro stop.
If I made an order, I would probably be 10 bikes since I'm going to do it on wholesale and assemble them if necessary.
The other option is using the bikeshare program in my city.
>bikeshare
those are crap bikes that weight a ton
otherwise they would all be stolen the next day
buy carbon racing bikes with frame bags
90s mountain bike with slicks
Why does it need to fold?
have you considered getting e-bikes? that way you could avoid your employees having to use two different types of transport to get to a client
