Folding Bikes
DW and I are thinking about getting folding bikes to put in our 5'er. Never been comfortable with bike rack on back of rig. Would appreciate some recommendations from those of you who have them. FW...

I have an old pair of Dahon with 3 speed in the hub which is nice because the chain is less of a mess. They fold much smaller than the CW and have the same 20” wheels. I will sell those since I have too many bikes.
I also have a pair of 6 speed CW bikes that do a better job if you have any hills. Quality is just OK. Be aware that CW is/was selling folding bikes with 22” tires that are next to impossible to find replacements.
Whatever you buy, be sure to get bags for them. I place the folded bike on a cheap HF furniture blanket then pick the blanket up and lower it into the bag, that gives extra protection to the bike, bag and vehicle.
