Keep the marketing promises somewhat real... I would never been caught to go 50 KMH on something like that (over 30 miles ) and 2 seconds folding time is pushing the envelope ( same as 15 for a Dahon by that matter ) unless you can proove it.
its a nice little toy .. how much ?
By the way you will get old before you find somebody to give you money to start producing anything on the bike industry. If you believe in your own product get a loan and start building .... otherwise its gonna be a pipe dream ( its not that new anyhow, they are other rollers available, which work the same way )
reality check in some way but than you asked for it, didnt you ?

thanks for you comment Thor. Firstly- I am quite proud of our product, and what we have built-I am sorry if you think I was boasting to much.
I think I state in my comment that the average speed is around 20-25 km/h quite clearly- while the TOP speed is will be above 50. Today I have taken it to 43.- then I run out of gears
The 2 second folding is measured- and look at the video for proof. I might use 3 seconds there...
if there are other rollers out there anywhhere near us- please post a link! I wouldn't spend 100's of engineering hours if there were duplicates, which were well functioning! I have seen a lot of somewhat similar stuff, but none that equals ours in driveability, handling, efficiency and folding properties. BUT then again I might have missed something so please fill me in! we have been working on 2 years on the Me-Mover project, and while the bicycle industry might be hesitant toi put money in the business, the sports and fitness industry has a different view. And I am full time working to put the Me-Mover in production, which will happend in medium volumes this summer.
and Yes I was asking for your opinions!
best
