Besides, I might be able to trade for a well maintained Silvertip. Maybe,...
Oh ok cool, I just mean't it isn't a small fold, I've never seen a swift folded in person just recently found out it didn't fold like a montague. For car travel the dash is fine.

Nycewheels never carried the dash p18, I originally went there looking for one and peter told me they only had the one in their video for a few days as a review loaner and never stocked them because "we would have had to buy a shipping container full of them" for whatever reason. I checked back when they released the disc brake P18 pictured above and they reaffirmed that they had no intention of ever getting it and tried to tell me it was a non-production prototype. I am not actually their biggest fan. I ended up getting my silvertip from amazon because it was the only source I could find. The only difference between the dash p18 and the silvertip is the paint job and the seat post diameter.
