I can't quite tell from the photos, but I assume that the tikit's rear fold is similar to their NWT in that the distance from the rear wheel to the crank is less while folded. Consequently, even if you had an internal hub with horizontal dropouts, one would need a chain tensioner to keep the chain in place.
