It's more in accord with the Fold Flat bikes, Fahrrad C100, Dahon Hound & Hammerheads,etc. Kind of thing you can apparently slide under the bed and forget about till you need to get it out. Nothing wrong with that, probably gives you quite a stiff frame. when you look at the video, it sure is a neat folding action.
