Two new velos pliant
I was in decathlon (UK) yesterday, and saw they have updated their range of folding bikes. The previously discussed Hoptown seems to be unchanged, but is now the Hoptown 5 - seems to be unchanged, and still confusingly has 7 derailleur gears. There is now a hub geared, 7 speed bike with leather trim, the Hoptown 7 for £150 more.
Finally, a new single speed (rebadged Uno?) for £150, I think. Not listed on their UK site, but you can see it here

Damn! I was going to buy a Hoptown acouple of weeks ago, as I missed not having a bike in the car. I couldn't find them on the web-thing, so I bought Something Else. Perhaps it was being updated.
I like the wheels on the rear of the rack on Hoptowns, the bike can be folded and towed along. Perhaps I could just buy the rack.
