I've seen reports that says the Crius solution doesn't fold well as the chain is too close to the chain stay where the front wheel hinge attaches to the bike. The Mint trifold version uses both tensioner at the bottom bracket and rear derailleur which seems to clear the chain away from the chain stay but add additional tensioner to the system.

I was just wondering if I can get away with just the front one with either oversize pulley or a clutch rear derailleur to make it work instead of another chain tensioner. The Crius YouTube (see below) shows that even with the bottom bracket tensioner it still have alot of slack to make it work properly.
