Now that I've reviewed all those kickstarter projects... here's my list of what is most interesting.
- Hummingbird. Cool looking bike, but not the smallest fold. Lightweight at 6.9kg
- Dahon, Tern, and Bike Friday all had Kickstarter campaigns in the list. The Dahon Curl is the only one that is not really available to buy.
- SU18 has a very neat fold. Unfortunately impacted by the war in Ukraine, but they are still communicating with backers so that's positive.
- VELLO successfully delivered their first kickstarter campaign with $30K. And were rewarded with over $500K in the second campaign.
- FLIT-16 is a nice looking bike. Like the Hummingbird, it's not a small fold, but looks like a quality build.
- Pop-Cycle claims to be the first with this design concept of a sliding mechanism. They're not.
