But this is negated by the fact that if you fold the bike, you have to remove all the bags, right? Brompton suffers the same problem, except anything that goes on the front carrier block is easily removed; not a huge solace, I know.
In any case, I agree that all in all the Birdy is a fantastic ride; I'm just not a fan of using it for rush-hour train commuting. But all the new modifications you mentioned above just prove, once again, you'll have to see it in person to believe it.
