I believe the Bike Friday was in existence well before the Mezzo but design concept of a rear swinging triangle and rigid main frame tube is nothing new and appears on other folding bikes, Birdy being one of the most well known.
Thanks for your comments - nice to know I have a newer version with no "bugs" or "surprises"

I will take some more close up photos when I am back on my bike - I have stored it in my B&B close to where I work so I can get out in the evenings but am holiday for a couple of weeks.

The Ori C8 also seems to be a Mezzo copy.
