I think you guys are being overly picky. Yes the bike is expensive, but they are built by Bilenski (sp) or in his shop, one at time. So for a hand made titanium bike, by a well known maker, you're talking bucks.

Looking at the pictures I think it would take wider tires. For a 20 inch bike, I don't think you need suspension and it is ti after all. No one criticizes the Swift for being too stiff and I doubt that is as stiff. I like that the stem appears to be adjustable, and it appears that you can set curve in, like the one for sale at Porterpedal, or outward to gain more reach, without effecting the fold.

I would not mind having one but I would not buy it either. I can't justify spending that kind of money for bike.
