Looks like a 16" folder with a long wheelbase and small but tall folded footprint. For shopping, getting on subways and buses, etc this might be a good fold.
Need more spec's, like the gearing, brakes, weight, etc. Promising, though. |
Am I seeing TWO frame hinges?

Isn't that to keep the front chainrings small? You get two stages of reduction between the cranks and the rear hub instead of just one. I think the Mobiky Genius does the same thing.
Well I will have a closer look on it at the weekend on IFMA in Cologne. Where the bike first is shown to public, here the link (sorry, only german and no specs given: http://www.frindas.de/index.php?opti...=60&Itemid=80: Yes, 2 frame hinges, thats makes the "rack" out of the toptube when folded. Wondering how stable. (And yes a bike trade show again for me :o but this on near by and for free). Also I want to see the Timor - not light, not a great fold but a super tight, elegant chain case : http://i532.photobucket.com/albums/e...mor_111001.jpg http://i532.photobucket.com/albums/e...mor_111002.jpg |
I like it, but I bet it's heavy. Suspension, double hinged frame, two stage drivetrain, rear rack, high spoke count wheels; These things all add up.
Still I'd love to try one out. Looks like a mix of Strida and Carryme. |
Throw in some Brompton genes in there, with the wheeled rack and the ability to carry a pack while folded. Very interesting bike, I'd like to know more about it.

Looks like a very complex way to do what a Strida does simply.
