Hi Campers, anyone bought one of these bikes? I need a little bike to hang on the caravan - but not sure of their 'quality'... Only ride when on holiday so don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a bike... Either a folding bike or a small 'ladies' bike as I'm only 5'2"... Any ideas? Thanks, Jay-Ja...
