These still dont seem to be available in the UK. The 26 and 28" are (they cost a small fortune) but no sign of the smaller wheel versions. I'd like to put the 2.5 on my front wheel for some extra cushioning without any extra weight.

Any clues as to when they'll be available? Is anyone here riding them?

No, they do not exist in small sizes, unfortunately. Also the wide 2.0 Kojak, foldable (my favorite) is not available in 20" or smaller.
I am riding 20"x2,35" standard Big Apples on a Mu Xl Sport. TBOMK, this is the only folder that has enought clearance to accept those mammoth tires.

I could only fit one on the front as I don't use a front fender. I assume they'll be available in those sizes at some point, they're listed on the schwalbe website.

Emailed Schwalbe and found out that the 20" versions won't be available until 2010, at least in the UK.
