Fold up bikes

I just got one and it is brilliant. Everyone should have one. I am cutting an hour off my daily commute with it.
God bless the buy and sell. Ok i'll stop gloating now.

Plus they are allowed on the train without restriction!

The punter that invents the fold up bike with decent sized wheels will make a fortune

Mine has those small wheels and only one gear. But for 85 euro you can't go wrong really. It is a pain getting up that luas hill in the morning though - a lot more fun going down it in the evening.

Can you take them on the luas or buses I wonder?

You can bring one on Luas if its folded up in a case, think you can on the bus too if you store it in the luggage space provided

I have a friend who swears by those wee metal scooters deeleys.

I don't know if I'd get one but they are very small and are much faster than walking.
