The weights of folding bikes vary quite a bit with the lightest being around 18 pounds. The average weight would probably be around 23 pounds or so. Still quite light to carry around if you need to for a little while.

Dont forget as well as the the commuter foldups (I have a Dahon Speed D7), there are also the larger variety such as the Dahon Espresso Hybrid (which I also own). It’s not as small and compact as the 16″ / 20″ variety but is small enough to fit in the boot of the car as I travel a lot for work. When I get to my hotel, out comes the bike and I use that for the daily commute to the office. At 26″, < 15kg in weight it makes it's use beyond just basic commuting.

Folding bikes are the answer to those who want to switch to bike commuting! Just how heavy are the average folding bikes? I saw they also can be tucked away in sacks or customized bags. Really neat!
