N+1 !..


I got, fixed up and resold my 90s era Mk2, a friend said 'if you find something else, let me know'

When I did find, a newer Mk4 - M3L, I did and she had changed her mind
so I resold the other one ($600) to someone in Seattle, who in turn resold it locally.

I had purchased a 2 speed crank, for lower gear range, I kept it and installed it on my newer bike..


In the last couple months I got a Bike Friday Tikit, used, its got a Sram 9 speed IGH, closer ratios.
(Orphaned, since Sram is dropping all IGH..)

The Tikit is now replaced in BiFri production, by their PakIt, it like the 20" wheel Touring bikes, has a rear fold

and removable bar and seat masts for packing in a suitcase, (or they sell a back pack for their PakIt, to go in..)

US made so costly like the London England made B, But offered in more than 1 size, and built with customer's component preferences..

Alfine 8 or 11 speed, or derailleurs/hybrid cassette/IGH, etc..


M3L is still here, I got Ergon grips for it ..
