- a new steel frame is going to be available in about 3 months. It will be a little more compact fold. He explained that the top/main tube and seat tube intersection has been reworked, and as a result the frame fits into a standard suitcase or something. I am a little sketchy on the details, and please do not bombard him with questions as a result of my post. Frame is about the same weight as the old steel one (maybe a tad lighter), but still about 2lb heavier than Alu one.

- he is out of alu frames at the moment, and new ones are expected in about 2 months. Black and bare frames (for custom paint) will be available.
