Fantastic outcome! Thank you as well for sharing pictures, videos, substantiated information on the bike. It exists!
I find fantastic too that it seems the current version of the finished bike seems to be even more polarizing than the whole thread!
This thread keeps on giving and giving....we don't know either if everyone will get their bike or if the company will be perennial even (some gasoline for your fires). But I'm betting they will.
I agree with Joe and the berliner both. "Heavy" and expensive but frankly nothing that's far out of expectations. We knew the read dropout, souped-up lefty fork and beefy redundant locking mechanisms would add to the weight as compared to the anemic demo bike in the KS campaign. We also know theres room for improvement as it looks quite overbuilt and the demo bike exists, there must be a middle ground. If there isn't we still get a cool looking, rather small folding (it seems to be significantly smaller than a comparable 24" Tern/Dahon and not significantly larger than Brompton) large bicycle (right between a Brompton and a Montague). Seems to fit in it's own niche.
​​​​I love that it's out there, looking forward to further review and Peter's next order bid...who knows, he may still get my dollars out of sheer respect for the thing. Beautiful object. After all, comparatively speced regular non folders easily get in the same price range...no brainer in my book.
