I'm considering of getting this folding bicycle rather than a Brompton.
There was review of it in VeloVision #11 (Sept. 2003). velovision.co.ukcgiOpen ↗ bin/show_comments.pl?storynum=542
This is the only review of the GoBike I am aware of. Velo Vision is a magazine I cannot get here in Canada. Ironically, GoBike is produced in Canada. If someone could summarize the article, it would be greatly appreciated.

You can't get in anywhere except through the post. You should be able to order the issue through the VV website. There was actually a pic of a girl riding one inside the front cover of the latest issue, as it happens. It's a great mag, and well worth a subscription IMHO.
Can't recall exactly what was said about it, but overall seemed quite impressive IIRC. But if your priority a very compact and fast fold the Brompton still appears to be king of the hill.

Here is a summary of the pre-production review in VV 10: One sided leading link front sus. Birdy-like folding action folds to 30"x26"x15" bigger than birdy but has 20" wheels. Size compares well with 20" dahons. Maker quotes 15 second fold time, derailleur, 3x9 dual drive, or hub transmission options. Luggage rack and mudguards not on the pre- production model. See www.gobikeonline.com
ISTR the followup review (which I don't have to hand) was reasonably favourable
VV10 also had a folding bike buyers' guide
