Anyone used a Montague Paratrooper or one of their folding bikes before...

I have a Mongoose Transport, which is a re-badged CX. Same monocoque main frame as the Paratrooper, but much more low-end components. Rides like the cheapo comfort bike that it is. Folding feature helps when you have to throw it into the trunk of a sedan. Unique frame is always a conversation piece. Nice having a folder with full-size wheels, but it doesn't get nearly as compact as a Dahon, Friday, et. al.
