These look nice on the Velorution website (pricey maybe tho?)

"The Wren Original combines the charm of vintage style with the practicality of contemporary design and components. Purpose-built for city cycling, this sturdy 3-speed model is equipped with bespoke luggage racks to carry all you need for your day. The compact frame is especially suited to cyclists who find traditional town bicycles too large or unwieldy. Each part of the Wren Original has been hand-designed or carefully selected for quality and performance."

Nice to upgrade, or run as stock though I reckon.

Wish it wasn't such a relaxed riding position, but I'm sure there are others that will find it perfect for their needs. Good to see more small wheelers out there.

Pricey? And how! Nearly $1000 for a non-folding, low performance bike. Sure, has a Brooks and other high quality components but do not see paying that kind of $$ for this bike - $300? Maybe... Would pick up a Dahon for reasonable $$ way before I would ever consider this...

Its no Twenty! What we have here is a classic Moulton F frame with 20" wheels sans suspension.
