Saw this thing in a store the other day, didn't test-ride it though:

Looks like a Brompton knock-off to me. Anyone tried it / know about it?

I saw one in the store too, but I wouldn't say that it's a Brompton clone.

At least not any more than the Birdy or a Mezzo.

Actually to me, it looks more like a cross between a Swift (in the folded postion) and a Brompton (in the riding position).

Actually to me, it looks like a Mission Space Genie (http://www.missioncycles.co.uk/Folding_Trikes.asp?Products_Action=Find('ProductID','15')&Products_Position=FIL%3ACategory%3D%27Folding%27ORD%3AABS%3A6KEY%3A15PAR%3A). :D

The Breezer i3 has been around for several years now. I think I remember information that it was made for them by Oyama, but can't track it down at the moment.

I don't think the Breezer folders are selling all that great, they've reduced their line from three to two offerings over the years, the 20" nexus7 equipped folder is no longer offered.
