Tchibo folding bike

The Tchibo catalogue arrived today. On the back page is a folding bike
for £179.00 but on the web site it's £159

It weighs 17Kgs (~34lbs) - if that was being sold in Aldi it would have
a warning sign on it stating that it should only be lifted by more than
one person, if Aldi were to be consistent.

More like 37lbs by my reckoning.

Looks like my tildes are worth ~10% 😉

I rather like the fact that it's designed for exploring foreign harbours...

That's pretty light by my homebuild stantards, really light in fact.
Still, who cares, I enjoy the beer, copious amounts of it, and I love
