I'm looking for a folding bike and the two I'm considering most closely are the Tern Verge D9 and the Link D8.

I like that the Verge D9 has disc brakes and I have a strange attraction to its 451 wheels.

The Link D8 has a wider variety of compatibile tires but I don't prefer V-brakes.

Do you know a strong reason to choose one over the other? A strong reason I should be looking at something else entirely?

I would never buy a bike with V-brakes any more. That alone would be a deciding factor for me.
