You do not have one, nor possibly have ridden one? ... and, well, ... I have one.
I have had so, sooo many folding bikes, but still I am reluctant to comment on bikes I haven't owned or ridden ... ?
I welcome your input.

Barry, I would not take Helix, if it were given for free. It does not solve any problem for me, at least compared to other bikes. It is mid-way in everything, at least from my perspective. Still, I respect the fact that for some it may be a pinnacle and they may be willing to pay $3500+ for it. However my lack of interest is my business.
