Hi Billy D -- I've been a lurker on this forum for about a year and didn't feel any need to dive in. While I agree that some of the arguments and antipathy in this discussion are a little overblown, as far as I know this is the only place on the internet to get updates on the Helix folding bike. True the discussion is full of rumor and speculation, but it is providing a public service and I would ask, on behalf of folding bike fans and those that are interested in the Helix, that you keep the forum open.
Thank you for your consideration and for providing the folding bike community a forum.
