What Are The Pros And Cons Of A Folding Bicycle, Compared To A Mountain Bike? Which Is Easier To Maintain?

I’m considering getting a mountain bike for recreation and exercise. However, I recently came upon an auction for a foldable bicycle at an attractive price of $200 plus (original price was $300 plus). I’m wondering whether a folding bike can perform well on rough terrain like gravel paths. If it doesn’t have shift gears and suspension, will riding uphill be difficult?

Dahon Matrix 26″ Folding Bike

Dahon Matrix 26

The all-new Matrix is a versatile bike that will take on anything you throw at it. Drop it down on the nastiest potholed roads and the hydraulically-damped fork smooths everything out. On tarmac, lock out the fork and you can hammer away efficiently. Slap some knobbies on and you can even take the Matrix off-road. For 2008, we’ve given the Matrix a brand new frame featuring LockJaw folding hinges: when locked down, the hinges are incredibly strong but virtually invisible so nobody will even know you’re on a folding bike.
