I understand the process for the Bike Friday, but it is still something I would need to try out before committing and I will not be in or around Oregon for quite a while.
Go to the Bike Friday website, they have a way to find other owners that will let you test ride. I have one back in the late 90's and used to get calls from people wanting to see it. Wish I had never sold it...
