The reason I thought this was unusual and worth posting about was that it was a PRODUCTION bike, not a one-off.

I would seriously doubt that any of the ones on FGG are actually stock items. As a matter of fact, at least one of them I saw was built by an employee at Bike Friday for his personal use. I see on their site that they've started offering a fixed option, but I think that's pretty dang recent.

I KNOW I'd rather have a Friday than a Dahon.

It's good to know that they're offering one as well. I might even order one someday soonish.
