Okie dokie. I found out more about the new Rans travel bike that is not yet in production.

All I can say is if you're interested in it you betta save your pennies. The suggest MSRP is around $1,350. They posted some specs on it. See below:

Note the riding and packed size. I made a quick call to Rans and if you're packing this bike for an airplane trip, you would have to undo the wheels, pedals and probably the seatpost/handlebars/stem too. If you're packing this into a van, you may not have to disassemble the bike as much (maybe a wheel besides lowing the seatpost and stem).

The pedals will be a standard 9/16 spindle which means that you can probably replace the standard pedals and put some suntour or other folding pedals on it.

I'm always on the look out for a CF folding or compact bike. This is a good contender but the price is a little offsetting.
