OK, I finally had time to mess around with the Gazelle and our travel case. Although the frame fits neatly into the case, the disc brakes present a challenge that the vee brakes on the Crane 8 do not. The rotors make it too difficult to pack the wheels without fear of damage, and the caliper on the front fork makes to impossible to nest the fork neatly between the rear dropouts. The Crane 8 and the our travel case were designed in parallel, and they work beautifully together, so they are the best combination for those who wish to travel with their Origami.
