folding bike frame design

Folding bike frames vary widely in both looks and feel. What makes one folding bike frame different from the next? How can you tell a quality folding bike frame from one that might as well be made of plastic? A lot goes into folding bike design and the frame has a good deal to do with the ride quality.

Dahon folding bikes fold in half, whereas Birdy folding bikes and Bromptons fold in thirds. The Xootr Swift has only one hinge which is locked by the seat post whereas the Brompton has 3 hinges. What Goes Into Folding Bike Frame Design?
