Thanks. Yes, I've been meaning to go to Bangkok to scour the bike shops there for mini velos....drop by Bali, and I'll let you take it for a spin around the village. Here's another take of the rig. Cheers...

Looks like it has a SRAM dual drive hub?

Yeap, SRAM DD2 with Shimano 10-speed SLX cogset and RD...though I am contemplating swapping it out for a 1 x 11 drivetrain.

Re. Bangkok, I am keen on visiting Folding & Mini Velo Store....

Very nice.

For some reason, the LockJaw-based Dahons don't seem to sell well outside Asia :-/
