Dahon Visc D18- Suitcase packable bike with Suitcase - Appletini - Green -kit with - Origami Traveler Case (blue with yellow) I hadn't yet looked at the one on Thor's
website, and actually didn't notice the cabling one way or the other, just looked at his price. In any case, I have never had a bike with internal cables and I was curious
if this was a common phenomenon and you could confirm it, or if perhaps the poster who had the issue had his bike set up improperly.
My Dahon Speed D8 has internal routed cables, and it's definitely a negative. Bending them causes shifting/braking problems. The external routed Visc D18 is the better bike IMO.
