Bikes: '99 Trek 520, '20 Kona Sutra (FOR SALE 48cm), '21 Simon-Bikes mini-velo and a chromoly-framed folding bicycle with drop-bars and V-brakes, that rolls even while folded.
I hadn't heard of the Pocket Gnu but, the few photos that I can find of it look like a New World Tourist with a suspension device on the fork crown. I'd contact Bike Friday to see if they recommend a chromoly, non-suspension fork as a replacement and are willing to provide one (I'd think a NWT fork would work). If the answer to either question is "no", I wouldn't buy the Pocket Gnu.
