GG does custom tooling, so they can certainly source parts. I propose that I, on behalf of the group buy, ask GG to quote on 10 or more (I think we will be able to get 10 orders) bikes integrated to our spec. To me, this means:

130 mm OLD rear triangle with S-stays to gain needed OLD (and reduced copyright issues)
Shimano Red Band 8-speed hub (assumes the SRAM iM9 is not available)
best Taiwan ISO 349 rims
Teflon impregnated cable
best Taiwan cable housing
best Taiwan gruppo other than what the RB covers
adjustable, full alloy, quill/handlepost (Sunzone)
best, aluminum, Taiwanese folding pedals
upgraded BB and front hub
upgraded crankset if possible
longest alloy seatpost... at least 500 mm (suspension seatpost would compromise folded size)
etc.

I have emailed GG about the possible order. I will be in Taichung (nearest big city to GG) the first week of Nov. They have plenty of time. So... me hearties, continue the spec (Let's assume cheapo saddle or even no saddle, each buyer would mount his own)
