The Loopwheels were installed on a Dahon Mu folding bike as kickstarter project, the very same bike I have for sale. I paid £950 through the Kickstarter project for this bike.
Out on the road, the Loopwheels accelerate in a way that you'd expect from a regular 20in wheel. Despite stomping the pedals we were unable to determine any unusual feedback.
While coasting or doing a trackstand, if you pump your bodyweight through both the pedals and bar you can feel the additional compliance the Loopwheels offer over spoked hoops. It's not an easy sensation to describe but we'd say it's not far from the sort of inherit flex a longboard or skateboard provides.
Potholes and gravel paths are smoothed out dramatically. Similarly, road buzz is dialled out to an unusual and satisfying level. We tried our best to upset the wheels both under high speed cornering and violent braking but lateral stiffness was never an issue and the steerer/handlebar assembly of the Dahon test bike was flexing considerably before the wheels even got the chance to.
Used Black Dahon Mu P3 folding bike in fantastic condition as pictured. 3 speed sturmey-archer twist shifter. 20” blue "loopwheels"! Comes complete with kick stand, folding pedals.
Accommodates a wide range of rider height: 4.8” to 6.4ft. Maximum rider weight of 105kg.
Bike weight: approx 10.5kg
