I don't usually like the styling of Bike Friday's, but I really like the look of this bike. Have to say though it seems that the quick fold of a Tikit or a Brompton seems more suited to popping a bike in and out of a backpack. As a Dahon Curve owner, who commutes on it every day, I don't usually fold the bike unless I'm throwing it in the car, which is rare. At 27 lbs my Curve is too heavy to be carrying around.
