Long wheelbase on folding bikes gives stability at higher speeds

Do you want to go fast on a folding bike? If so make sure you purchase a bike with a long wheelbase. They will be more stabile than short wheelbase models. Keep in mind short wheelbase bikes can turn on a dime, so they are great for maneuvering in congested cities. 90 degree turns are almost possible with a short enough wheelbase.
