Help identify this bike
Hoping someone can help me identify a bike. It is either a city commuter or a mountain bike. The unique characteristic is that the top tube is vertically flat. I have seen one go by while I was driving. I also saw celebrity cyclist David Byrne on one. I realize that more than one manufacturer may offer this style. What is the benefit of a veritically flat top tube?
Thanks for any answers.

I believe Byrne was riding/rides the Hummer branded version of the montague folding MTB.

Don't run red lights, wear a helmet, use hand signals, get some cycle lights(front and rear) and, FFS, don't run red lights!
