Don't get me wrong, I like the design of the Mezzo and prefer its looks myself over the Tikit (I don't own either, nor plan to). I don't even argue that the Mezzo folds up smaller than the Tikit, though it appears from other posts here that you have to remove the Mezzo's front wheel to make it that small. I was only trying to point out a domestic alternative to the cost of international round-trip airfare in order to buy a fast-folding, compact folder. Of course, I wrongly assumed that U.S. availability was your question, not smallest folded size. Perhaps a little clarity in your inquiry would have helped me avoid the misunderstanding. Anyway, I'm guessing it's just a waiting game until the Ori is eventually in the U.S. but if it's the Mezzo you really want, you may have to add airfare to the purchase.
