Hey, I just sold one of these for you! Only one other person that I know of rides to work. Earlier this week I saw a BSO Huffy mountain bike parked next to the other bike, and thought, "Hey, someone else!" I eventually figured out who it belongs to, a young woman who comes a fair way, and took it on the train. I mentioned folding bikes (I ride a Brompton, which she well knows). Knowing that she's on a budget, being a young mother and all, and that anything like a Brompton was out of the question, I pointed her to the Origami website (I also mentioned NYCewheels and bfold, but she already knew about them; I suppose their stuff is out of her price range). Her eyes lit up, especially at the price, and just today she told me she ordered a Crane. So, pretty soon I'll get to see one up close; she even had it shipped to work. If nothing else, this will get her off the Huffy.
So when can I expect my commission?
