As for "killers"... the reason why Brompton hasn't made a Dahon killer has more to do with price point than with anything else. Most folding bike shoppers aren't willing to spend more than $500 on a bike (honestly that number is probably $300). Dahon makes several models in this range. Brompton does not. Brompton does, however, make one of the smallest folding bikes on the market. Dahon does not.

All I know is... it's Dec 31st, and I'm about to head out for a party. Happy New Year everyone!
Happy New Year!
Fully agree. If Brompton is in that price range it will be an instant 'killer'. I own a Dahon and I look forward to have a Brompton. Brompton buyers paying for inefficiency. Is that a fair statement?
