“It felt light, quick and extremely maneuverable and was comfortable enough for even longer journeys than we thought possible.”
Cycling Today, GB, March 2000
“Our purchase recommendation: Those who have to watch their money closely, should choose a Montague or Brompton. Those who love image and perfect technology will feel more at home with a Mercedes or Birdy.”
Autobild, Germany, 2002
“The Birdy is an ingenious synthesis of touring bike and compact folder, blurring the boundaries of what you can do with a portable bike.”
Encycleopedia 2001
“BIRDY - winner of the product review is best suited to the sporty cyclist.”
Fox TV, Germany, Fit for Fun, March 2003
“Best folding, best suspension, lowest weight and surprisingly good performance off-road. With such a range of abilities, value for money is hard to judge. We think on balance that the Birdy owner can expect the greatest number of smiles per pound.”
A to B Issue 9, GB, December 1998
“The key difference between the Birdy and other folding bikes is that the Birdy is a very good general purpose bike hat also happens to fold. “
Chainlinks 2004, NZ, Dave kelly
“Folding bikes have been around for about 30 years. Unlike many of its predecessors, the German-designed Birdy is a technological wonder.”
BV News, Australia, February 2004, Jane Holroyd
“The Birdy isn't just snazzy looks and practical folding: it has full suspension for the rougher parts and road manners that put some conventional bikes in the shade.”
Australian Cyclist 2004, Trevor Creighton
“The ride is what sold me on the Birdy. The frame is stiff and responsive. It accelerates well (being light helps).”
