It's a bit early to say, because I keep procrastinating the job I bought the tubes for. But thanks for prompt shipping and asking about my experience.

About Flatbike, Inc.
Written by the company
Full-size bikes are fun and easy to ride, but not so fun and easy to store and transport. Do you buy a bike rack for your car, driving around with the sensors covered and valuables outside your car---or is there a better way? When your bike is inside, how do you keep it conveniently accessible, yet out of the way?
This is what makes Flatbike so popular. Flatbike solves these problems, whether you already have a bike you like or are in the market for one that fits your life better.
Full-size folding bikes, including mountain bikes, hybrids, and gravel bikes, offer a quality riding experience. Then these bikes simply fold in half to fit conveniently in a car trunk, truck cab, RV cubbyhole, or below deck in a boat. Or, if you already have a bike that you love but it takes up too much space, a Flatten Your Bike kit can make your existing bike fold flat in seconds, fitting easily against walls in small apartments or garages.
Ultimately, these improvements make your bike more compatible with transportation and where you live. Put it all together, and you end up with bikes that are more accessible, more portable, and take you more places to ride and explore. It’s portable adventure!

I really like it
I really like it. Only one issue is removing the pedal after riding. Maybe the pedal doesn't install snug enough and rotates from the weight one puts on the pedal. Other than that it works great and gives me a peace of mind when I park my bike in public. Hard to pedal off with no pedals.

Hi, Wesley, and thanks for the feedback. Deep in the Wellgo instructions is a recommendation to put a dab of grease in the latch of any pedal with a "too snug" issue. It's a one-time application, and then you should be good to go. (You can also knock it once with the side of your hand with the latch open, but the grease should be enough).
On time Delivery
Received the Tannus tire inserts on time. Price was very good but now waiting for the tax and duty charges for delivery to Canada. Too bad for government intervention.

I have been irritated for years about the difficulty between bike and car storage. While having a double car garage, we have two single doors, so there is little room for error in parking. My bike has large tires and a mirror on the end of the handlebars, and I can count on scratches on the right passenger side of the car when I hit the bike tire or mirror pulling in.
If I am successful missing the bike, then the side mirrors are in danger because I don't have self-folding mirrors. Sigh.
I was so happy finding this solution. It has given me another six inches of space and that has made all the difference. Five stars, thumbs up, hooray!!!

I was on my 3rd flat on the back of my ebike and called Flatbike to find out my options. They recommended Tannus Armour liner and had it installed three days ago. Now I’m anxious to see how well it protects tube/tire and how long I will go without another flat.

Bought a Thinstem from Flatbike and had questions on the mount of spacers that I may need to get the same load/pressure on the stem. Technical advice received was free and right on the money!

The website did not work properly and I was mid-sold to
The website did not work properly resulting in me being mis-sold to. Instead of honouring the sale, my order was unilaterally cancelled and I was refunded. The question I asked in my email went unanswered.

Hi, Charles. We're sorry you were affected by (now-fixed) one-day rates glitch in the USPS international plug-in---incorrectly listing intercontinental shipping as free. If you check your spam, you'll likely find three emails from us over a week as we tried to resolve this. Finally, getting no responses, we canceled the order and refunded your entire purchase. If there's something else we could have done, we'd love to know what...
Great service
Great service, they made an error shipping my order and corrected it within minutes on a phone call. Very friendly people. Would definitely recommend Flatbike.
