Yep. The thread's over 54 pages now, but it's slowing down.
I think it's cause fellow Swifties are too busy having fun riding.

It's extremely stiff, efficient, and blazing fast. Generally, the consensus is that it's great with great roads, and gets worse with worse roads...just like a minivelo.

Since some of the roads here in SF can get bad, I've been thinking of selling mine (yes, I'm scared of a little road vibration on my wrists). However, I sort of don't want to, because it's a ridiculously nice ride.

I haven't taken it on the plane.
The fold is pretty big, but fairly neat.
It fits in my closet easily, next to a dresser..

And no, I won't sell it to you because you dissed the blue...and because it'd be impractical to ship it to you anyways (already have one BF member interested in buying it locally).

ps. If you really hate the color, just get some 3m retroflective vinyl from the Beacon sign shop. It works surprisingly well, with minimal hassle.
