I realise that since you seemed to have problems after a short test ride that you have now re-posted the reports & videos that tell Mark Sanders story, (they already have been featured on here and elsewhere about a year ago) but have you actually ridden a Strida anywhere yet?

I had some positive experiences with Steedman Bass @ Strida UK, but this all went wrong when he told me that the Strida 5 didn't exist & that the photos (of the Strida 5) that I'd seen were a one-off custom from a Japanese fan!
Then he blocked my attempt to buy one from Strida NL. So I had one delivered to my friend in Holland, who brought back to the UK for me.

I do not have a problem with you being a moderator on the Strida Forum, I just don't understand how you could be so negative about our beloved Stridas & then appear helping to run the Strida Forum.

Thanks for the quick reply, though I still don't see the logic.
