Just a few pictures up from yours, actually: https://www.bikeforums.net/20963522-post931.html

Wrote a short thing about it here, too, just after I got it: https://www.bikeforums.net/folding-b...ces-today.html

It was a tossup between that or the Dahon Mariner - this one won out because it was cheaper, a little lighter, and I thought the paint job was more awesome.

Made an upgrade in the tires and rear-rack strap but its otherwise still stock. Tuned in, it's a nice rider and it has sold me on the whole folding bike thing - thinking about a hub-gear one next, like the Vitesse, but that'll be probably a year or more off.
