I bought this so I could get around faster on my campus. Since I'm also a commuter and full-time worker, I didn't want to have to mess with a bike rack so a folding bike seems like the best choice. I ended up going with this bike because
1 - it's cheap (please note that the -----price varies on the bike color-----. Black was the cheapest at the time of my purchase)
2 - it's light
3 - it fit inside my car
4 - had the larger tires so let peddling for me
So I bought it for myself, back in March of 2012 (it's now Oct)
I love the bike BUT there are some draw backs
1-I have a ford focus. In order to fit the bike in my car I have to take the handle bars off each time - it gets tedious
2-the paint doesn't hold up well to wear and tear - I ended up having to lay it on its side at one point, scrapped the paint to crap
3-the bell it comes with died on my first wipe out =[ sad day
4-for those of us who are used to normal size bikes, riding it takes some getting used to. you can't turn and peddle at the same time, as your foot will hit the tire (how I did my first wipe-out)
5-it shifts around more then I'd like in my trunk
6-for on road only, has virtually no shock system to speak of
The good:
1-very sturdy! I'm a big girl - around 170lbs (and loosing =]) this bike holds me and my book bag (~10lbs) no problem
2-well built - I've had a tune up and the bike store said it was one of the better folding bikes and I've wiped it out one it twice - the chain fell off one time but it was easily slipped back on and ready to go
3-does what it's suppose to-folding it is easy and it's very compact
4-gears and breaks work great
5-adding things to it is not problem -just the same as a normal bike
6-seat is adjustable/replaceable
7-can adjust height of handle bars too
It's a great bike! I added a backpack rack to the back and haven't regretted the purchase. It works perfect for on campus and paved trails. I've added a water bottle holder to the handle bars (makes it easier to fold for me versus the one that comes with it) and bought a new bell. It works great, and I don't regret the purchase. At one point I'll repaint it or upgrade to a better, more expensive folding bike for I get more into it.

I have been using this bike for the last 2 months to commute to work (with a train ride in-between) and I total a little over 14 miles per day of bike riding. Being a fairly large guy (6'2 and 210 lbs), I'm really impressed with how this bike has been holding up, and the overall comfort of the ride. It is also very quick to fold / unfold which is a huge plus when going on and off the train.
The bike has been overall pretty sturdy so far, however, I initially put one of the pedals on incorrectly leading to it falling off repeatedly during my commute and ruining the threads on both the pedal and crank arm. I emailed 2ksilver pictures of the damage and within a few days I had a replacement crank arm, pedal and they even lent me a tool to remove the previous crank arm and attach a new one - I was really impressed by the level of customer service provided!

I wanted a full-sized bike that I could easily transport without modifying my car. This bike fit the bill. It fits in the trunk of my Civic and folding it is quick and easy. It weighs about the same as a standard bike. It is easy to lift and carry, but I wouldn't want to carry it long distances. It's easiest to ride it to where you want it and then fold it up.
Assembly wasn't very difficult. The directions weren't very detailed, but it's pretty obvious how things go together.
Overall, I'm happy with this purchase.
If you want a full-size bike that can fit in the trunk of your car this is a great choice.
