Awesome bike the silver dream machine. My friend has it and I want it. Once you ride this bike you don't want to ride anything else. Damn it's FAST. Cruising at 20mph is a breeze. And I got up to 28mph on the flat. And I weigh 81kg. Someone weighing 70kg or less would break the 30mph barrier.

It's so smooth and climbs hills like they don't exist. I will get mine may 23 and it will the last bike I ever buy. Its the dream machine.

Tern really knows how to make good looking expensive bikes.

*Nice and easy to fold and unfold. I like the **Latest.Bike** of it components and so far it rides pretty well in pavement-ed trails*

I wish tern would make an upgrade with the Tern Verge X18. With 2x11 drivetrain and disc brakes. I would definitely go for it.

Very pretty (include paint, styling). That said, I'm a bit frugal, so anything 11-speed is out.
I think 9-speed is the perfect spot for a "one-by", based on the jumps in gears. Many people don't realize how much those 11-speed cassettes and chains cost (a cassette can run you $200), and I go through at least 2 of each per year. I'd really like a Verge frame with an Alfine 11-speed, belt drive, and disc brakes.

waited for months for this review! would you do a comparison against tern eclipse x22 please?

[YourTechGuide.]

it's sucks you can't have an option to have a shorter stem to give it that low agressive profile. if you have seen my dahon p24 I was able to remove the stock to a much short stem and boy the bike looks like so aggressive with the shorter profile stem. if you guys are able to swap the stem to a shorter one I will order right now.

Nice review!
Remember that the wheel size is 22" inches and not 20" as you stated in the specifications!

Shout out from the Philippines. Any thoughts on the doppelganger folding bikes from japan?

I don't mean to put this bike on blast or anything like that...

First of all this bike is by far the best top of the line that Tern has to offer... I myself own a Tern Verge D9...

But if I'm being honest, I would have to admit... That this bike X11 is basically the same as the P10... In essence if I could afford either of them, and I can't with the price $1500 to $2500...

But if I could afford both, I wouldn't buy a more expensive model P11 that's %95 the same of the less expensive version P10 with only a $1000 dollars difference...

I mean look at both in comparison, there isn't that much of a difference in comparison...

Just a few components here and there of a difference or what not, but overall it's the same bike that coast a $1000 more or less then one another...

For that much of a difference in coast, I would need to see a major distinction between the P10 and X11, and I just don't see it...

My Tern D9 looks similar slightly from both the P10 and X11 and was priced at $900 and some coins...

But you can see a slight up grade from the two other bike that's mentioned P10 and X11 clearly looks more sportier ...

So for the consumer, purchase with pride and understanding of what your really getting...

And Tern Verge have the best folding bike's in the world...

And if you purchase any of the Tern bikes you made great choice.

awesome looking folding bicycle; very light (10 kg) as well.

[CRPressureWash]

how come it looks like the chain gets really slack when you stopped pedaling? just curious.

[claydogmadman]

I'm sorry but the Tern Verge folding bikes put the Brumpton folding bikes to shame...

[MrJotrs]

Connor, can you guys make a video of this X11 vs X22 speed wise. Both bikes are lovely! I guess just comes down to portability.

[daveadriffield]

Hi, thanks for the review. What's the difference between this model and the x11 2021 version? Apparently the bike is sold without pedals? Where would I get the quick release ones you demonstrated?

[xs]

Are you guys gonna review the Tern Verge D9? no one reviews it and I'm dying to know!

[francisjobert]

Nice video. By the way, can i replace the 451 wheels set of the verge x11 to 406 because I’m more comfortable with the smaller wheelset? Thanks a lot!

[RoslanBakriZakaria-RBZ]

Can a almost 6’ 220 lbs dude ride this TERN? Otherwise, is there any other options that would be able to handle my size please?

[RedNoah]

Guys for this bike, with its current components, what sti type shifter brand can be used for both the sram rd and deore hydraulic shiftbrakes on this bike?

[berkeleyedit]

How does this bike compare with the Brompton and Bike Friday? I have a Tern P10.
